It looks like the globalists who have for years been calling for sharp restrictions on energy usage, getting it down to more “sustainable” levels, are going to finally get their wish. And it’s a “conservative” Republican president who is going to hand it to them on a silver platter.
They want us off our land, in much smaller apartment homes, driving smaller electric cars or riding bicycles, using less air-conditioning and less energy in all aspects of life. The famous mantra of the globalist World Economic Forum has been “you will own nothing and be happy” under their so-called great digital reset. They’ve also argued for a much smaller global population.
Their dream is close at hand as the entire house of cards is getting ready to implode. The fundamental transformation to a fully controlled digitalized society is being driven on battlefields with unnecessary wars, and in the global oil and gas markets, making energy basically unaffordable for average working stiffs like us.
Not only has Trump lost in his gamble to take down Iran, but now his aggression has led to Iran’s allies in Yemen, the Houthis, going on a rampage and taking over all of western Yemen along the vital Red Sea coastline, allowing them to control the Bab el Mandeb Strait. The Houthis also bombed a key oil pipeline in Saudi Arabia that had been allowing 5 percent of the global oil supply to evade the dangers of the war-ravaged Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf.
Here’s what David Haggith, who publishes the Daily Doomon Substack, posted on the topic:
Into the now rapidly spiraling energy crisis, U.S. Secretary of Energy, Chris Wright, attempted to speak some calm into markets. He seems to specialize in saying stupid things. This time he indicated the total shutdown of the east-west pipeline was not a huge concern because the Saudis plan to have the pipeline fully “running very soon.” Since he is always saying empty stuff like that, it would appear the energy secretary’s brain doesn’t have the energy to run a lightbulb.
So, it is not hard to figure out what the Houthi game plan will be for that major pipeline, making me think the energy secretary cannot be this dumb, so he must just be another Team Trump liar. With the pipeline totally dead, both parties will wait until the Saudis spend a lot of money and time getting the pumping station back online and until the oil starts flowing again. Then they will immediately blow it all back up, leaving another big mess of spilled and burned oil all over the totally destroyed equipment. Each time, the Saudis will have to clean up the big, charred oil spill before they can even start to rebuild.
In a matter of days, Brent crude has gone from $90 a barrel to $109 a barrel.
At this rate, we could see $150 a barrel by the end of this year. That would mean gasoline prices of $7 to $8 a gallon, and diesel prices of $10 to $12 a gallon. You think food prices are high now? Wait till we have $10 a gallon diesel. Since jet fuel is a derivative of diesel, the airline industry will also be devastated.
Costco, a major bulk-sale retailer, has already responded by announcing a rationing plan for motor oil, limiting customers to two cans each. Watch for other major retailers to follow suit.
The bigger story is this: The U.S. petro dollar and the empire it propped up is in freefall, right before our eyes, and it’s going uncovered by the media. Americans have no idea how much economic pain is coming their way as a result of Trump’s destructive wars, both military and economic wars, none of which America is prepared to fight and win.
