Funding is for Congress. Efficient execution is for the President. If you think congressionally approved funds are not needed, then go to Congress and ask for a different budget. It is not the president’s job to unilaterally misappropriate funds passed by Congress.

North Carolina:

  • Total Tax (including fees): With the added $0.0025 inspection tax, the total state tax is 40.55 cents per gallon.

If I’m not mistaken, the gasoline in SC is still fully leaded.

No, leaded gasoline is not available for use in on-road vehicles in the United States or most other countries. The U.S. fully phased out leaded gasoline for on-road vehicles as of January 1, 1996. While it was once a common additive to improve engine performance, leaded gasoline was banned due to its harmful effects on human health and the environment.
 
So, here's my Conspiracy Theory. Given Trump's tell, when he hesitated - will he? Won't he? Who knows? ...coupled with the lack of a radiation leak at the bombing sites. Remember, Iran has been providing drones and missiles for Putin to committ war on Ukraine. Putin bought Iran some delay to move the enriched uranium out on trucks. Once Putin gave the all clear signal to Trump, that's when Trump called Go! on the raid. Iran was completely passive, and later claimed they were caught off guard.

Now Iranian consulates are up meeting the Godfather...errrrr Putin. How the next step will be orchestrated, I'm unsure, but somehow the current Iranian government is protected. Just sayin'

That’s some conspiracy thinking for sure. But given all else around the Trump/Putin/BiBi/Ukraine/Iran/Whothefuckelseknows saga, it would not be surprising to me at all.

Hahahahahahahah. Iran ruled certain sites off limits. That deal was pure shit from the get go.

And we know because Trump said so, and Trump is always right about everything.

here is a fact for you dumb ass

"

The JCPOA does not require Iran to submit to “anytime, anywhere” IAEA inspections of facilities and military sites where nuclear activities are suspected to have occurred. Instead, Iran can delay inspections for 24 days. Of course to idiots like you, iran would never cheat on their promises. That fact, plus the sunsetting clauses included makes the entire deal worthless. But pussyfist, I mean pacifist John Kerry, thought giving iran billions and lifting sanctions for them to agree to inspections, delayed by 24 days was a great deal. anyone supporting that deal is an idiot. Not surprising at all where it came from.​

Iran has been threatening to block the Straight of Hormuz since like 1980.

They don’t even have to really block it. All they have to do is cause instability and fear in the region. Posturing hostilities is enough. That alone will cause Lloyds of London enough headache that they either won’t be able to insure the shipping vessels or that the war premium will be high enough that oil prices 📈

In your estimation, who would someone with “a full brain” vote for? I’m not even being snarky, I’m genuinely curious in your perspective.
 
Not offering my own commentary- just presenting a very interesting thread. We should all hope he’s wrong because if he isn’t, Saturday’s strike was a strategic failure.
