In The News...

Actually diesel used to be a half dollar cheaper than gas. I'm not sure what happened, but at some point in time Diesel became no longer cheaper.
 
The national business media has picked up on the fact that days cover for all non-jet distillates in the U.S., a category that is 85% to 90% diesel, is at less than 26 days cover, far below normal at this time of year. The interpretation of that has sometimes been that the U.S. is going to run out of diesel in 26 days.

But what it means is that inventories could cover 26 days’ worth of demand if all imports stopped and refineries halted all production. U.S. refineries are pumping out a healthy level of about 5 million barrels per day (b/d) of ULSD, and imports are adding about 100,000 b/d of supply to that.

The problem is that demand for domestic consumption plus exports is exceeding those supply levels, tightening the inventory levels and boosting prices.



 

“Fears of political toadies occupying key intelligence roles had been aired publicly by former intelligence community members during the Trump administration’s early years, but their concerns were all but ignored by Senate Republicans during confirmation hearings that would ultimately inflict serious reputational damage on a number of agencies that, for their own survival, had long avoided partisan leanings.”

That’s some damn fine creative journalism right there.

We just had municipal elections up here, and school board trustees are on the ballot. The teacher's unions put out a list of their preferred picks, so most people now knew who not to vote for. Apparently ultra right wing nut jobs were planning on taking over school boards. Ironically a left wing conspiracy. Thankfully a lot of anti-woke got in, my GF is in contact with the one she voted for, and they are helping. We don't have the meetings like you guys do, we just contact the trustee. I can see the school boards wanting a distraction, test scores came out and only 32% of the students met the pass grade for math. We also just had a 2 day strike with the education workers who wanted to help the students by getting pay raises (11.8% each year for 4 years!!!)
