The supervisors association statement came amid recent calls [by some morons] for an “audit” of Florida’s election results.
Florida Secretary of State Laurel Lee said this month
that an already-completed audit of totals in Florida’s 67 counties
showed “an exceedingly high level of election integrity and,
again, demonstrated that our results were accurate, reliable.”
and we can add florida to that list also with michigan wisconsin idaho and az
Demand for energy is rising sharply
Demand continues to recover swiftly from the pandemic,
especially for gasoline as consumers drive more.
And increased demand without a rise in supply means higher prices (inflation!)

OPEC is sticking to its guns (causing gas prices to rise)
"It's very easy for prices to shoot up when demand conditions
are tight like they are now," Francisco Blanch, Bank of America's
head of global commodities, told CNN.
Despite pleas from the White House, OPEC and its allies have so far
refused to significantly increase supply. (thus lowering gas prices)
"OPEC is not going to accelerate. They like their plan.
They think their plan is working," Blanch said.
He pointed to the fact that the breakeven price for oil in many
OPEC nations' budgets is between $70 and $75 a barrel —
meaning they are only now just breaking even.
"OPEC is not interested in pushing prices back down to $60 a barrel.
They have zero interest," Blanch said.
US oil companies aren't rushing to help
Not only is demand strong, supply is also lagging.
The United States is producing less oil than it did before Covid
— even though prices are much higher today.
US oil companies are also reluctant to ramp up production
because the demand outlook remains very uncertain given
the climate concerns around the world.
(in turn this keeps gas prices high)
Federal grand jury indicts
former Trump adviser Steve Bannon
for contempt of Congress
Bannon, 67, was charged with one count related to his refusal to
appear for a deposition and another related to his refusal to produce
documents.
Each count carries a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of
one year in jail.
Gruden sues NFL for $$millions;
says they defamed him,
not his numerous bigoted statements
(CNN) Former Raiders coach Jon Gruden alleges in a lawsuit
that the NFL and Commissioner Roger Goodell sought to destroy
his career and reputation through a malicious and orchestrated campaign.
The lawsuit was filed Thursday in Clark County, Nevada District Court.
Gruden resigned in October as head coach of the Raiders
after reports emerged of him using homophobic, racist and
misogynistic language in emails while he worked as an ESPN analyst.
Criminal indictment is a warning of legal consequences for potential witnesses who refuse to comply with subpoenas from House committee investigating capital riot. Although Bannon has no legal leg to stand on, he probably continues to stonewall. Justice delayed is justice denied. But others are different and may be more willing to cooperate. So far, almost 3 dozen subpoenas have been issued.
Republican shows integrity
in conceeding to Democrat winner
(NJ) Ciattarelli does the adult thing and concedes,

“I called Governor Murphy earlier today and
congratulated him on his re-election, and
wished him well in serving the people of New Jersey,”
Jack Ciattarelli said at a press conference.

Governor Murphy stated:
“Earlier today I received a phone call from Assemblyman Ciattarelli
congratulating us on our victory. I thank the Assemblyman, his wife
Melinda, and his family for a spirited campaign and
their commitment to public service.”
Ciattarelli insisted, however, that Murphy’s victory was a fair one,
and that those who have called the election rigged – are mistaken.

Ciattarelli insisted, however, that Murphy’s victory was a fair one,
and that those who have called the election rigged – are mistaken.
“I’m someone who believes strongly in our republic, and
in our Democratic processes,” he said. “Enough votes have
been counted, and there does not appear to be a path to
victory, or the basis for a recount. Nor do we know of any
systemic or widespread fraud.
So NO!, I see no proof that this election was stolen.”

“Sadly, our current climate gives rise to doubts in the system,

“That isn’t healthy.”
REGARDLESS what you think of republican Chris Christie,
recently he said in a nationally televised interview
regarding trump's LIE on camera on election night:
"I felt physically sick to my stomach, watching him standing
behind the Presidential seal of the United States, saying something
at that moment that I KNEW he could NOT prove was true.
But he was saying it as if it was an absolute FACT!"
You cannot, as POTUS, stand up there and say that the election
was STOLEN, to the American people, as your first statement,
after the election results were coming in, unless you have
ABSOLUTE CONCRETE *PROOF*....As a supporter of his, I felt
I had an obligation to say what the truth was, and the truth was
that at that moment there was NO EVIDENCE that the election
was being stolen and in fact now, we're nearly a year later, and
there still isn't any evidence!"
Christie acknowledged he had voted for trump earlier that day.

Bannon pled not guilty on Monday, even though he is clearly guilty.
meanwhile the trial continues of 3 republicans involved in the fatal killing of ahmaud arbery , an unarmed man who was jogging , whom they stalked and murdered .
he was unarmed and not in any commission of any crime
but worst of all he was BLACK
and they murdered him

Christie also stated that trump's speech (that night) was
"one of the most DANGEROUS pieces of political rhetoric
I have ever heard in my life!"
He continued:
"....Yes, that is a big statement, but it's TRUE! And all you need
to know to back that up, is to see how many people [republicans]
today who STILL believe it."
