I'm skeptical too, and was apparently a bit confused. But I tried to clarify things above, with my reply to ToasterMonkey.
The written version of the deal is still not released, so we only have sources like Trump's media posts and media reactions to them. Perhaps we'll get a better understanding soon.
What idiot told you majority means all? 55/45 is a majority, dumbass.
I apologize. Nobody said majority means 'all' -- in particular, not me. But I admit I misspoke about Venezuela "handing over 65 million barrels of oil." Nor is any of it apparently at no cost.
Nevertheless, Donald Trump's own media post was confusing. He said his subordinates “secured majority U.S. control of more than 65 BILLION BARRELS of proven Oil Reserves in Venezuela, at no cost to the American Taxpayer.”
The text of the agreement is still not released, but what we know is that the USA gets 55% of the effective output of a new Venezuelan company, with an ownership stake and an option to buy oil at cost, rather than the full market price. A bit more detail here.
So Venezuelan oil will certainly be cheap, but there is still the task of rebuilding Venezuela's oil industry, and that will not be cheap or quick to do.
Fairly irrelevant. What is more relevant is what is their track record for honest reporting. Not who one of the founder that's been dead for decades was.
Their track record is terrible and it's owned by a cult.
Not at all, I judge by fairness of the stories. Rather than your judge things by the politics. Here's a clue: Even IF a source is poltical, it is valuable. Political sites will tell the truth when it happens to align coincidentally. So you have to listen to left, right, and center to discover the truth. Listen to their arguments for, and sometimes more importantly their arguments against, the rebuttals.
Judging a site by whether it aligns with you or not is not a search for the truth, its a search for validation in your beliefs. Good luck with that..
The USA. As in i get free gasoline? Or as in a company gets it to process and then uses prevailing market rates to charge me?
Iâ(TM)m skeptical of any plan that doesn't clearly spell out how it affects tax payers.
Speeding has been technically solvable for years. Since at least 2020 my car has known the speed limit on any road Iâ(TM)ve been on. From middle of nowhere Indiana/ohio/Michigan to down town Chicago.
In fact my current car self drives on highways and actually has a setting to choose how much to speed.
Speeding is too profitable to fix.
Name something that he did that has improved your life or the country?
Are grocery prices cheaper? Is the cost of living lower? Is gasoline cheaper? Are your taxes lower? Did your wages increase? Did your taxes decrease? Are your utility bills cheaper? Do you have health insurance? If you have insurance did the costs decrease?
Lower or decreasing compared to what we want or compared to what Biden and his minions running things behind the scenes were creating. That would be not lower compared to the former and lower compared to the latter.
Some choices are negative/negative, small inflation vs large inflation for example.
Actually it's quite rational hatred. The man is a pig.
Which is something separate from Astronauts deserve to be honored.
And something separate from we could use formalized training for the increasingly important and increasingly commercialized space industry. Note that sounds remarkably similar to the United States Merchant Marine Academy:
"The United States Merchant Marine Academy is a federal service academy that educates and graduates leaders of exemplary character who are committed to serve the national security, marine transportation, and economic needs of the United States as licensed Merchant Marine Officers and commissioned officers in the Armed Forces. With 95 percent of the world's products transported over water, these leaders are vital to the effective operation of our merchant fleet for both commercial and military transport in peace and war."

It's a good thing I opened it in an incognito browser, because the browser alerted immediately of suspicious traffic from the site. Others please note.
If accurate, that's interesting. But its also something that's largely common to both ends of the political spectrum. Matter of fact some the organizations that are the most famous for profiling you, targetting you, selling you, are organization whose founders and staff are overwhelmingly liberal.
Cardio-vascular disease rates among vegans is quite rare
The same is true for traditional hunting communities that have very meat heavy diets.
You are performing a classic confusion of correlation and causality. Anything taken to an extreme, to a highly artificial level, is going to have problems. That includes veganism, which will just have problems other than heart disease. Humans are biologically omnivores, your personal 'morality' will not change that. The healthy human diet is largely about quality, diversity, and proportionality. Sure a vegan diet is likely quite a but better than McDonald's diet, However quality fruits, vegetables, grains, and meat in good variety and proportions is probably a better diet than the vegan diet. That latter is a better fit for how we evolved.
In the USA, your diary can become evidence in court if the court deems it is relevant. There is no automatic shield for that.
I am not a lawyer though, so if someone has a credible source that says otherwise, please feel free to speak up.
