Of course anything with TRUMP on it won't be "credible".

Epstein Files

Trump flails as Epstein storm rages around his government

My guess is Trump has every working overtime to scrub his name, and maybe others, from the evidence. In a month or so it'll be released and lo and behold it will be full of liberal folk with not a Trumper to be found.

U.S. Oil Rigs Continue to Slump On Price Uncertainty

The total number of active drilling rigs for oil and gas in the United States slipped again this week, according to new data that Baker Hughes published on Friday, following a 8-rig decrease in the week prior.

The total rig count in the US fell by 2 to 537 rigs, according to Baker Hughes, down 47 from this same time last year.

The number of oil rigs fell by 1 to 424 after falling by 7 during the previous week—and down by 54 compared to this time last year. The number of gas rigs stayed the same this week, to 108 for a gain of 8 active gas rigs from this time last year. The miscellaneous rig count fell by 1 to 5.

The latest EIA data showed that weekly U.S. crude oil production dipped for the second week in a row in the week ending July 4, from 13.433 million bpd to 13.385 million bpd. The figure is 246,000 bpd down from the all-time high reached during the week of December 6, 2024.

Israel vs US

How many Americans have the Palestinians killed ?  

Israeli settlers beat American to death in West Bank

How the BBC reports it.

 How CNN reports it. (pretty far down the page.)

CNN adds some detail. I don't see any claim of dual citizenship 

... the young man was an American citizen born in Tampa, Florida. 

Musallet ran a business in Tampa and had been in the West Bank since June 4 to visit family and friends, the family statement said. 

 Multiple American citizens have been killed in the West Bank in the past few years, according to Palestinian officials and eyewitnesses, including a 14-year-old boy whom the Israeli military shot dead last April in what they described as a “counterterrorism operation.”

Israeli soldiers also shot dead a 26-year-old woman during a protest against an Israeli settlement in September 2024.   

The current state of Israel is not our friend.

Epstein's List

Trump’s Admin Claims the Epstein Files Don’t Exist, Why? 

The Epstein Client List — Why is Trump Breaking His Promise to Publish?

Why hide it?  

• Trump is on the list.
• They don't want the people to know Epstein was working for Israel intelligence.
• Netanhayu is using the list to blackmail Trump and others. 
• There are too many rich powerful people on the list.
• Trump or someone in his administration is planning to use the list for their own blackmail campaign.
