And Freedom Gas. Because that's totally something you get in what is not a dystopian YA novel. You know. Like...like people who don't shit their pants and write monologues in their own feces do.

....in 2019 there is no external metric I can use to tell if I'm having a stroke.

There is a quick test for strokes. Snark aside, it's valuable for people to know.

More to the topic, it looks like it's just natural gas. And, oddly enough for someone supposedly idolizing Putin, it's supposed to, "help European nations diversify their energy supply away from Russia, the region’s major supplier of gas."

Only in America it's possible to make sure that oil companies can keep profiting by using laughable means like this. And Americans wonder why we rest of world tend to laugh at them in cases like this.

No, US oil companies are profiting because Europeans want an alternative to Russia and Norway can't supply everyone.

Just ignore whatever Twitler does, man. He's an evil idiot, all you need to know is that he's an evil idiot and therefore it'd be better to have someone who's NOT an evil idiot in the WH in 2021.

So take your pick of the idiots, Wall Street puppets, and doomed would-be reformers the Dems have coughed up this year.

Because that's why Europe has the countries with highest amounts of renewable energy on the planet...?

If they want an alternative to Russia, tbh, I can't blame them. It would help if they weren't dependent on them at all, to any degree. If war really is coming, it's going to be like a chess game, so remove that option from him before he tries to invade again.
