"President Donald Trump's approval rating fell in recent days to its lowest point since he returned to the White House, hit by a surge ​in fuel prices and widespread disapproval of the war he launched on Iran, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found. The four-day poll, completed on Monday, showed 36% of Americans approve of Trump's ‌job performance, down from 40% in a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted last week." ~ Jason Lange and Bo Erickson #Trump #Iran #war #gas #ApprovalRating /1 https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trumps-approval-hits-new-36-low-fuel-prices-surge-amid-iran-war-reutersipsos-2026-03-24/

"They figured congressional Republicans would share in any successes but somehow avoid any blame when things (inevitably) went haywire. Politics rarely works out that way." #Trump #Republicans #ApprovalRating #Iran #war #oil #gas #economy #affordability #ICE #immigrants #cruelty /3

The #House voted 214 to 213 against bringing the #WarPowers resolution to the floor, handing Republican leaders a procedural “victory” & preserving the broad discretion they have ceded to #Trump to direct the #US #military campaign in the #MiddleEast. The 1 vote margin signaled continuing unease in #Congress as the #war nears its 8th week with no endgame, & the approach of the #midterms in which high #gas #prices threaten to sour voters on #Republicans fighting to keep their majorities. #law

"Attendees at the 2026 Conservation Political Action Conference seem to be dazed and confused after a disastrously chaotic month for President Donald Trump. In the last 30 days, he has started a war in the Middle East, deployed federal agents to airports, and refused to end the partial government shutdown." ~ Marin Scotten #Trump #CPAC #MAGA #impeachment #Iran #war #oil #gas #airports #ICE #AirTravel /1 https://newrepublic.com/post/208293/cpac-attendees-confused-cheer-trump-impeachment

"WaPo: 'The Trump admin temporarily lifted sanctions on Russian oil shipments in an effort to calm markets and stem the economic fallout from its war on Iran, which has sent crude prices spiraling upward. This allows Russia to begin selling some 128 million barrels of oil that are estimated to have already been loaded onto tankers previously facing restrictions from the US.'” ~ Ron Filipkowski #Trump #Iran #war #Putin #Russia #oil #gas /11 https://www.meidasplus.com/p/today-in-politics-bulletin-327-31326

"'On Thursday, futures for Brent crude oil closed at just above $100 a barrel for the first time since 2022. The move will provide a huge financial boost to Russia, which experts say has already been receiving about $150 million per day from increased oil sales since the US attacked Iran two weeks ago. The lifting of the sanctions positions Putin as one of the biggest beneficiaries Trump’s war on Iran.'” #Trump #Iran #war #Putin #Russia #oil #gas /12

"According to Gas Buddy, the national average price for a gallon of regular gas is now up to $3.59 a gallon. This is a 62-cent jump from February 28th. Largest oil disruption ever in history. Brent is up 12.5% right now. That is up to 104.30. Crude oil is up 12%." ~ David Shuster #Trump #Iran #war #oil #gas #economy #prices #affordability /13 https://www.blueamp.co/p/shusters-weekly-wrap-up-trumps-iran

"The president did unveil a new purported justification for the war today in his rambling press conference at his golf thing. He said, quote: 'We’re doing this for the other parts of the world.” We’re doing this for the other parts of the world.' It’s actually hard to argue with that one. That one might actually be true." ~ Rachel Maddow #Trump #Iran #war #madness #insanity #oil #gas #economy #EnergyCrisis #agriculture #fertilizer #food /17 https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2026/03/10/maddow_russia_giving_iran_advanced_targeting_information_trump_giving_russia_sanctions_relief.html

"Trump is surrounded by people who are making money from the war; each day of war strengthens a warmongering lobby with personal access to the president. As the war lengthens, the chance that it will be exploited for a coup attempt increases." #Hegseth #Trump #Iran #war #incompetence #WhiteChristianNationalism #PerformativeMasculinity #EconomicElites #oil #gas #profiteering /4

#Reiche will mit allen Mitteln verhindern, das der Umsatz von #Strom #Gas und #Öl bei den Konzernen sinkt, dafür nimmt sie gerne Steuermittel in die Hand zum Beispiel die #Pendlerpauschale. Sie ist nur Ministerin , um die Dividenden der Bosse zu retten . Ob du deine Dividenden über die Pendlerpauschale generierst oder dadurch , das du die Kosten der Atommüll Lagerung nicht bezahlen musst, das Prinzip ist das gleiche.Dividenden aus Steuermitteln, das ist die maximale WirtschaftsKompetenz der #Cdu #Atom

Gas prices eclipse $4 a gallon in the U.S., the highest since 2022. @AssociatedPress@flipboard.com reports: "The price is a national average, meaning drivers in some states have been paying well over $4 a gallon for a while now. Prices vary from state to state due to factors ranging from nearby supply to differing tax rates." https://flip.it/3qsaZr #Gas #News #Trump #Iran #War

"While speaking from the CPAC stage Friday in Grapevine, Texas, American Conservative Union chairman Matt Schlapp asked a question he apparently thought would hype up the crowd. 'How many of you would like to see impeachment hearings?' The crowd erupted in cheers. 'No,' Schlapp responded, shaking his head. 'That was the wrong answer. Let me try it again.'" #Trump #CPAC #MAGA #impeachment #Iran #war #oil #gas #airports #ICE #AirTravel /2

"Through Trump’s Iran War, shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security, futile effort to pass a Jim Crow-style voter suppression act (the so-called SAVE Act), and inflation-aggravating tariff scheme, Republicans are discovering they are tied at the hip with Trump. Refusing to deviate from his dictates, they will bear the brunt of his serial failures." #Trump #Republicans #ApprovalRating #Iran #war #oil #gas #economy #affordability #ICE #immigrants #cruelty /4

"Republicans made a calculated bet that by indulging Donald Trump’s ill-conceived and cruel schemes (e.g., unleashing ICE on cities, tariffs, wars with Venezuela and Iran, slashing healthcare to pay for tax cuts for the rich), the country would somehow stumble through." ~ Jennifer Rubin #Trump #Republicans #ApprovalRating #Iran #war #oil #gas #economy #affordability #ICE #immigrants #cruelty /2 https://www.contrariannews.org/p/what-did-republicans-expect

"The Wall Street Journal is now describing this as the most severe energy crisis since the 1970s. CNBC calls it the biggest oil supply disruption in history. Saudi Arabia has now cut its production of oil. Iraq’s production of oil is down to less than one-third what it was before Trump started this war." #Trump #Iran #war #madness #insanity #oil #gas #economy #EnergyCrisis #agriculture #fertilizer #food /18
