Houthis help America to make more money from oil price up rising. They hit the right place , that makes America great again

U.S. energy secretary has degree in animal science. Someone told him everything was cool.

'News Opiates to the masses'

Better get keystone xl built America

The U.S. used to have a Secretary of State who thoroughly understood the oil market.

Even with his glasses, he’s still pretty friggin’ DUMB….

Sure. Why did THIS happen again, then?

This whole thing is a FalseFlag

So why say the oil reserves are ready? They are always at the ready. That’s the meaning of reserves.

This guy? Okay.

Who cares? We need to rapidly transition AWAY from emissions-related energy sources.

Providing this is not turned into an ongoing war! Something says the us will start something they won’t be able to finish this time.

And then opened the US oil reserves so their friends can profit!

Of course it’s robust ffs America bombed a major oil supplying nation

Does anyone else think that this attack could have been staged to force the US to go to war

And the three departments I want to cut are... wait, who am I?

Same thing they said about my Grandmother after her 4TH stroke.

Lol, he said realDonaldTrump is a Cancer to Democracy; now he works for him; soooo, what does that say about his credibility!!
