The POTUS can&#39;t TACO his way out of the war he started now that the price of oil is spiking upwards, so he&#39;s loosening restrictions on Russian oil exports. Couldn&#39;t have come at a better time for his pal Putin. &quot;Mr. Bessent later said that the United States was considering lifting more sanctions on Russian oil. And President Trump on Monday said in a news conference that his administration was “waiving certain oil-related sanctions to reduce prices.” https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/world/middleeast/iran-war-putin-russia-energy-oil-prices.html

@briankrebs he's very successful in supressing any news about the Trump Files, sadly

@briankrebs as them economically probably not stand in good place right now sell their most precious asset is soo convenient right now and lifting restriction vs search other long term solutions is suspicious at least...

@briankrebs Are we talking about THAT Russia? The one that is an ally of Iran - the country against which the USA are waging a war at this moment?

@briankrebs I love the logic behind that. SCNR It was just recently published that Russia supports Iran in killing U.S. soldiers. And as a consequence, the US is lifting sanctions on Russia. Helping them selling their oil better and for a higher price and then they can support Iran killing US soldiers even more. And the Trump supporters are celebrating. MAGA must be very happy people because they don't have to think themselves and just cheer on anything their great leader does. Even when it means killing American soldiers. There are things in life I'm just too stupid to understand.
