In this video, Adam Kinzinger breaks down how rising oil prices, shifting sanctions, and global moves - from the Middle East to Cuba - are creating major advantages for one country in particular.
From energy markets to military coordination, the global impact of these decisions may be far bigger than most realize.
It all goes back to Putin, doesn't it? I think the first question Trump asks himself upon waking in the morning is: "How can I help Vlad today?"

(962 posts)Hillary was right BTW. It all leads back to Russia.
So, we have to ask, after all of Trump and other Republicans constant claims about endless wars, why should US Service men and women, die for Israel and Russia? Why should our tax dollars, that could be spent here on schools, public healthcare, infrastructure etc. be spent starting a war that will kill both our servicemembers and innocent civilians on both sides while being used to suck our traditional allies into a war that again kills their servicemembers for an event that they weren't party to and takes their resources away from defending against theirs and the United States greatest adversary Russia.
Add to that Trump's suspension of sanctions against Russia, and his allowing their oil to get to Cuba without seizure, all of which were mentioned by Adam, and the Trump administration's constant efforts to get Ukraine to sacrifice land for a so-called peace deal with Russia and .....
Everything points to Russia.

Then there are those who attempt to undermine the Russian connections and gaslight the obvious facts. They drive me bonkers. There is such an anti-American tone to the stand they take.
We missed such a great opportunity with Hillary. I still wonder what might have been and how much better the world would be.
