Solid move to ban Russian oil…it seems anyhow. How I wish we had a president that could communicate though. Seems like forever.
I worked in the Oil & Gas industry mainly in Pipeline and Logistics for 30 years... recently retired from one of the biggest companies...If I mentioned the name, you'd know it.....
I can tell you without hesitation this is a BS move. In 30 years I never heard of 1 drop of Russian oil going to any refineries in the US.
Dealt with oil from many countries.... NEVER RUSSIA
Total BS...

So this is fake news? Includes oil to the strategic reserve, which wouldn't go to refineries. Although since some was released, I guess it will be.

Those numbers prove my point... "Thousands of Barrels" 30 Thousand.. hahaha Pipelines that run 10k to 15k barrels per hour will think that's cute...
well, I get your point, it's a drop in the bucket, but you did say "not one drop of russian oil".
I did say... "Russian oil going to any refineries"...
Refineries make actual GASOLINE and other products.. trading oil is not the same..
I can only tell you what I saw personally in my 30 year career with a major oil company's Pipeline and Logistics Dept. We controlled all US pipelines in and out of every refinery in the US for that Company ...

uh...you said no one buys 1 drop.
never said, that,,,,, but I will say None is refined to make gasoline in the US
December '21 shows almost 8 million barrels being purchased as "unfinished oil" and almost 3 million as "crude oil." If said oils are for the strategic reserve, then some of it was recently released and refined into gasoline. The chart below is in "thousands of barrels." Add three zeros to the number.
Total Russian imports of petroleum products is 8% of US demand daily. Not significant but not without impact, minor as it may be. Not "total BS" as you posit.
Bottom line: Suspending US imports of Russian oil will hurt Putin and his war. Refining Russian oil in the US doesn’t put a single ruble more in Putin’s war coffers.
Also, here’s a brief lesson on how trading markets work from Seth Klarman.
Seth Klarman tells a story about sardines disappearing from their traditional habitat off the Monterey, Calif., shores, causing commodity traders to bid the price of sardines up to soaring levels. Then, along comes a buyer who decides that he wants to treat himself to an expensive meal and actually starts eating the sardines. He immediately gets ill and tells the seller that the sardines were no good. The seller quickly responds, "You don't understand. These are not eating sardines; they are trading sardines!"
MSNBC's Joy Reid: World paying attention to Ukraine because it's a 'White ... Christian nation'
Joy Reid said, 'Let’s face it, the world is paying attention because this is happening in Europe'
Yeah but what's your point from posting this? She's not necessarily wrong.
Okay but it's her own network MSNBC (and the others) that has chosen to focus on this Ukraine/Russia war. There's a civil war going on in Ethiopia right now. There's been several war crimes, it's a humanitarian crisis, and I'll wager a guess there's not many white Christians in Ethiopia....yet no coverage on The Joy Reid Show.....that I'm aware of anyway.

I was actually just thinking about this exact thing the other day. the other factor.....third world country wars don't have the capacity to impact life all over the planet should it go sideways.
But she's right. There are a few factors; resources, demographics, etc. this has been the same through every conflict since the advent of TV.

Regardless of whether there's a racial slant to it it's (the war) a big fucking deal. What I'm saying is she's not necessarily wrong in her statement. Both can be true. Not sure what's trying to be proved here.
This, together with Swedish tradition, was the Left Party's reason over here to vote No on Sweden sending weapons.
A very privileged criticism to be able to ponder and have though, at a time when Russia is invading their land and murdering their people (children) deliberately.

"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
Well this is at least an actual criticism. If the other one you're talking about when you say "also" is the Joy Reid thing, that's more a complaint about the coverage than an actual criticism about anything relevant to the war.
As for Omar here, good for her. I doubt there's many other Democrats that would publicly say that. And I wouldn't be surprised if there's people in her party angry with her for it. But that's one thing I'll give the so-called "Squad." I may not agree with many of their stances, but at least they don't tow the party-line like most Democrats and Republicans do.

No doubt, but valid criticism nonetheless. Not like these approaches have bit us in the ass before or anything...
I live in the Swedish epicenter of smuggled rifles and handgrenades from the balkan war.
I still think the criticism is next to moot when their people are being slaughtered, and they have to do what they have to keep Putin at bay. What should we do instead? Send baseball bats or pepper spray?

We probably trade for those Russian barrels overseas to supply corporate and other assets in those parts of the world, when it saves money..
