Trump Formally Wins Electoral College Vote
December 18, 2024
Trump’s victory was locked in when Texas’ 40 electoral votes were awarded to him. President-elect Donald Trump has formally won the Electoral College, officially securing the presidency on Tuesday. Texas officials joined other presidential electors across the country as they convened at their respective state capitols to cast their electoral ballots and formalize Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election held on November 5. Electoral votes for the election were allocated to states based on the 2020 Census. Each state’s electoral votes are equivalent to their number of House representatives and two senators representing their states. The Electoral College consists of 538 electors, and a majority of 270 is needed to win the presidency. Trump surpassed the required number on Tuesday, officially securing 312 electoral votes, while Harris won 226. Earlier Tuesday, the president-elect celebrated Pennsylvania’s electoral vote certification. Trump won the crucial swing state, securing its 19 electoral votes. “Our BIG Pennsylvania WIN. So nice!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post, along with an image of the state’s official electoral college… […]
OPEC+ wary of renewed US oil output rise under Trump, sources say By Reuters
December 18, 2024
By Anna Hirtenstein and Alex Lawler LONDON (Reuters) – OPEC+ is wary of a renewed rise in U.S. oil output when Donald Trump returns to the White House, delegates from the group said, because more U.S. oil would further erode OPEC+ market share and hamper the producer group’s efforts to support prices. OPEC+ pumps about half of the world’s oil and earlier this month delayed a plan to raise output until April. The group extended some of its supply cuts until the end of 2026 due to weak demand and booming production from the U.S. and some other non-OPEC+ producers. OPEC has a history of under-estimating U.S. output gains going back to the start of the shale oil boom, which has seen the United States become the world’s top oil producer. The United States now pumps a fifth of world supply. Some delegates are more bullish now on U.S. oil and say the reason behind this is Trump. Following an election centred on the economy and the cost of living, Trump’s transition team put together a wide-ranging package to deregulate the energy sector. “I think a return of Trump is good news for the oil industry, with possibly less stringent environmental policies,” a delegate from a U.S. ally… Read the full article here […]
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards extend control over Tehran’s oil exports, sources say By Reuters
December 18, 2024
By Jonathan Saul and Parisa Hafezi LONDON/DUBAI (Reuters) – Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have tightened their grip on the country’s oil industry and control up to half the exports that generate most of Tehran’s revenue and fund its proxies across the Middle East, according to Western officials, security sources and Iranian insiders. All aspects of the oil business have come under the growing influence of the Guards, from the shadow fleet of tankers that secretively ship sanctioned crude, to logistics and the front companies selling the oil, mostly to China, according to more than a dozen people interviewed by Reuters. The extent of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ (IRGC) control over oil exports has not previously been reported. Despite tough Western sanctions designed to choke Iran’s energy industry, reimposed by former U.S. President Donald Trump in 2018, Iran generates more than $50 billion a year in oil revenue, by far its largest source of foreign currency and its principal connection to the global economy. Six specialists – Western officials and security experts as well as Iranian and trading sources – said the Guards control up to 50% of Iran’s oil exports, a… Read the full article here […]

December 18, 2024
Mollie Hemingway of The Federalist has become one of the strongest voices on the right when it comes to calling out the liberal media. During a recent appearance on Laura Ingraham’s show on FOX News, Hemingway pointed out that we have not had a functioning media for years, accusing them of being corrupt and regime propagandists. Later in the segment, she suggested that Trump is showing the Republican party how to be an effective leader. Partial transcript via Real Clear Politics: MOLLIE HEMINGWAY, THE FEDERALIST: One of the worst legacies of the Biden era has been destroying rule of law in this country, using courts to go after political opponents to settle things that should be settled at the ballot box. And it’s a horrible contrast between Biden and really all other presidents that they, that he did so much in this area. You know, it’s true that this press conference today didn’t just show Trump sort of reaching through space and time to govern, even though he’s not yet president. You know, we’re seeing in these recent weeks everyone’s treating him as the president. That’s a contrast with Biden. But it’s also a contrast with the impotent and… Read the full article here […]
WHAT A SHAME: AOC Loses Bid to Lead Powerful House Oversight Committee | The Gateway Pundit
December 18, 2024
Far left New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, has lost her bid to be the top dog on the House Oversight Committee. There have been rumors swirling around Washington that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was working behind the scenes to tank AOC’s bid, but Pelosi has been busy overseas dealing with a broken hip after a nasty fall. Adding insult to AOC’s injury, she not only lost this race, she lost big, bested by Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia. FOX News reports: AOC loses bid to be top Democrat on powerful House Oversight Committee Progressive Rep.

Connolly, 74, bested the 35-year-old Ocasio-Cortez with 131 to 84 votes in what is seen as a blow for progressives who backed Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the progressive “Squad.” “I thank my colleagues for their support and the confidence they’ve placed in me to lead House Democrats on the Oversight Committee,” Connolly said in a statement after being elected by the House Democratic Caucus. Connolly called out “the Republican playbook,” in which… Read the full article here […]
