If you haven't noticed in Illinois, there has been another noticeable spike at the pump—and this one comes with an Illinois problem.
Within just the last week, gasoline prices have jumped about 21¢ a gallon while diesel prices have climbed roughly 33¢ as well.
One might ask—well, what is driving the prices so high?
That brings us to Joliet, Illinois, where ExxonMobil’s refinery, with the capacity to process roughly 267,000 barrels of crude oil per day, has been sitting offline since Sunday due to a power outage.
Yet, remember when Democrats like @GovPritzker were outraged over Big Oil’s record profits just six weeks ago?
Take notice on how this has nothing to do with Trump so the Democrats don’t have any interest in talking about this.
Vote Republican—Flip Illinois RED. 🇺🇸

@ShaneEBurns Working in Tech I have seen a lot of my friends lose their jobs to H1’s. The only positive is that I also farm and raise livestock and they are my biggest buyer of goats and eggs.
Let me get this straight: anti-vaxxers were the most demonized people on Earth, the only people it was acceptable to discriminate against. Censored, fired, blacklisted, anti-vaxxers were stripped of basic human rights. Then it turns out the anti-vaxxers are right about EVERYTHING
I tolerate my democrat friends and family but, you see it your way and I see it my way. I'm not you and you're not me. You see Trump's arrogance, I see Trump's confidence. You see Trump's nationalism, I see Trump's patriotism. You hear Trump's unsophisticated words, I hear Trump's honesty. You see Trump's racism, I see Trump's words being misconstrued and twisted by the media daily to fit their narrative. You see Trump as a Republican, I see Trump as a Patriot. You see Trump as a dictator, I see Trump as a leader. You see Trump as an Authoritarian, I see Trump as the only one willing to fight for our freedoms. You see Trump as childish, I see Trump as a fighter, unwilling to cave in to the lies. You see Trump as an unpolished politician, I see Trump as a breath of fresh air. You think Trump hates immigrants, l know Trump is married to an immigrant. You see Trump putting an end to immigration in America, I see Trump welcoming immigrants to America LEGALLY. You see Trump's cages at the border, I see Obama's cages at the border. You see Trump with a struggling economy, I see Trump with an amazing economy until the Democrats shut it down. You see the violence in the streets and call it "Trump's America", I see the violence in the streets of Democratic run cities who have refused Trump's help and call it "Leftist America." You wanted someone more Presidential, I'm happy we HAVE someone who finally doesn't just talk the talk but actually walks the walk. You and I? We see things very differently! And that's OK!!
Imagine being Barack Obama, thinking you got away with murder since 2016, spying, lying, rigging the game, watching Trump get dragged through hell, and thinking it's over.
You install your puppet and breathe easy like you're untouchable. But then Trump comes storming back after 34 sham convictions, two arrests, and two assassination attempts and wins in 2024.
Now, suddenly, you're not safe. You're staring down treason charges, your entire legacy collapsing, your lies exposed, and the world finally seeing you for what you are: a smooth-talking thug.
Karma didn't forget you, it just waited. And the reckoning you thought would never come is now here, and it's glorious to watch!
@TulsiGabbard@ODNIgov@DNIGabbard God Bless you and thank you for everything you have done in this role. Your name will be forever etched in history for all you have done.
