But Rubio said Bessent would be rolling out a plan to mitigate, MITIGATE the impact. Just give it… two weeks.

Gas is already $3.59/gallon for Regular where we are.

Update as of PI day, no discounts considered, areas within 2 hours drive of Washington DC (prices inside the district are always much higher): Average price of regular = $3.49 Average price of diesel = $4.99

Not yet…

Damn there goes Trump's $1.98 a gallon 😂😂

Now who could possibly have predicted that?! Everyone with half a brain. I'm sure Vlad is ecstatic.

No shit!

So much winning!!

So much for Trump's $1 gas everyone was enjoying, in nowhere USA.

That really is what you can call “gaslighting”. Try telling the country gas prices are falling now Conny Donny!!

Same was true about the price of eggs. Producers significantly raised the price on the "prospect" that the bird-flu would cull the flock. When that didn't happen or wasn't as bad as expected, they made a windfall profit using the crisis to surge prices. Gas will be no different.

This is pointed out every time these things happen. Price rises are front loaded, but when the price comes back down again, the reductions take weeks to filter through. And the truth is that mostly they never come back down fully anyway.

Silly you, that’s for his personal account in Qatar, not the American people.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the Secretary of Energy has any involvement in the shipping of oil. Again…I’m open to being corrected.

Americans should refuse to go to work until Congress does its job!!!

Yes it’s called shitty rich people having a fit because no one wants them in charge of anything and everyone wants them to pay their fucking taxes- start a war to hide pedos and rapists and the price of gas goes up? It’s like Xmas in March

And it will only get worse. It should surprise absolutely no one since we've been for decades told this would be the immediate effect of a war with Iran.

😢...😡

it was up as soon as the dumbfuck started this war. Yay inflation and recession.

But not according to President Bone Spurs :/

Remind me who one of Trump's biggest donor constituencies is? Bonus!

It's already $3.25

It's a good thing trump promised to get gas down below $2 a gallon. According to him, gas has been below $2 a gallon since 2025. I confess, I must have missed that year, since I found no evidence of such a price.

Even here, people are panicking.

Oil companies love it when prices go up; their profits do too. Shareholders in oil company stocks love war.

Gas around the Seattle area is at $4.60 (last week)

What’s that in CA prices? I’m I just screwed?

It will. Trumps war will cost billions.

You got that right. Trump working on affordability.😡

How come wars are always so lucrative to the richest people?

Where has gas been that cheap this year? In OR it was down to $3.38 at Costco!

i do not use gas i use this a.co/d/02ZHjFqT

I just paid 4.99.

Good thing affordability is a hoax.

Already over that in the St. Louis area, and we have always had some of the lowest prices in the US.

Hey dumb ass #MAGA you happy?

WOW. just on how they worded the title of this article. It just rolls off your tongue freely, without any emotion. There should be some kind of grit in it! Displeasure, Anger Something more than how this reads. That's all this presidency is. Costly! financially & now in life form. Stop normalizing!

already is $3.25... will be $4.00+ by next week

American exceptionalism at work messing up the world so well.

Price of gas went up 10cents a gallon yesterday at every station here in the Austin area. Before any new oil or gas hit the market. Purely coordinated gouging so expect the worst as people fill up asap.

maybe a government that invests in alternative energy sources and doesn't start wars in an oil rich region would be good

I know. I live there. The stations all have gas in their holding tank that didn't cost them $4.25. It's profit making. Same with refineries. It's ridiculous. I've seen what happens when we get prices that high. The economy tanks and it doesn't take long.

😳

Billionaire tax will never pass bc, well, billionaires. We need to call it Graduated Rate and have under $1 million taxed at zero. Rapidly increasing rate at 3 or 5 mill so basic wealthy people (2 income professional households, say) will vote yes. Normie WA residents can grasp benefits if told.

Somewhere, Putin is smiling

I still remember the panic when Bush started the war and I was told to fill up the gas tank because price would go up. I'm still waiting for that gas to climb back down but I guess it doesn't even matter anymore.

Unrelated to this particular increase in gas prices but American gas is dirt cheap because it is insanely subsidized. Gas should be expensive. This should drive us to better choices... electric cars ... etc. In America though, we subsidize bad choices and punish good choices.

no shit

Let’s get our money back from this very corrupt Trump regime.

Will this affect dollar don's $1.90 per gallon gas?

DOGE: Failed Tariffs: Failed No New Wars: Failed Lower energy prices: Failed Seems the only thing this administration can do successfully is terrorize the American people with ICE.

Steal Venezuelan oil for yourself and your buddies. Bomb Iran. Watch oil prices skyrocket. Profit.

Not just the USA, this is going to hit many nations hard, especially in Europe. Prices everywhere will jump upwards.

There's a surprise.

Whoa!

$.65 jump in 2 days

Still lower than under Biden

In Arizona, gas hasn’t ever dropped under $3.15 except at Arco, watered down gas.

I can smell the winning from way up north of you guys.... that is winning I'm smelling right?

Just paid $3.49/gallon.

It's what dimwitted Americans voted for.

!!!! 😬

I didn’t look on my way to work yesterday. I will need a third job now.

Ours went up 42 cents overnight.

#MaryRoeloffs where did you find #gas at $3? That price quote is way past its #expirationdate, #forbesdobetter

it's higher than that in Key West

It’s $3.49 in PA

More War profiteering for Trump's Venezualan oil reserves. I see you.

I wish it would only be 3.25

well Mr Trump wants oil prices to rise...lots of $$$ for some if they do

🤦‍♀️

Of course it will.

That would be awesome, since I paid over $4 a week ago in Oregon.

Absolutely

Well. It was a good run gas and eggs. So you two on the up and up!

Are eggs next?

Nobody can properly price gas when populations of GCC countries are starving and have no drinking water going into the summer because the Persian Gulf is closed to commercial traffic. Even AI can't account for black swans.

Great. Tired of paying 5.00 a gallon in LA

Yep, current estimates are 5-10 years and at least $100 billion to reach high productivity.

True that, all that will work in their favour. We need accountability from global leaders, what better way than sending their next generation at the forefront – www.draftbarrontrump.com

We plug at home.

Is the press going to blame Biden to make the idiot in the WH feel good?

Mine went from $2.79 to $3.19 per gallon overnight in Central Florida.

Trump did it, he’s raising gas prices. What a piece of work this guy Trump is.

He is way too young for this shit. Fuck trump.

This is not American, never forget.

Latinos have always served.

$3.29 here today in Florida

Good for EV sales

Way to help Americans with affordability, Trump, you fucking moron.

The Donald's focus on affordability is a thing of beauty ... NOT!

Our idiot president has been bragging about the low cost of gas. Now even that is in the rear view mirror.

NOT SHIT Genius's.. fjc.. wow bottom of the class gang.. wow.

I’m sure some filthy rich jerks with insider connections to the regime are making a killing

Glad I'm retired.

Could? It jumped 40 cents in one day, in Michigan.

We expected all prices to increase with Trump at the helm, so, no surprise to me.

Yea, I have already seen them going up.

Go. Go green. Dont buy fossil fuels. Energy security = LOCAL GREEN ENERGY. NOT OIL FROM MIDDLE EAST. Farage does not get this. PS regards to Isobel Oakshot in Dubai: dont come here in a boat cos Farage will send you to Rwanda.

And here we are in NM with the Permian Basin spewing toxic pollution into our bodies and our land with abandon!

No shit

Of course if it! War is the get out of jail free card for the energy companies. Declare war and they can jack up their prices to anything they feel like. I hope someone blows up their refineries and storage farms in the US.

Oh get over it eggs are cheaper (sarcasm)

Meanwhile, in Arizona

Could hit 3.25? In Cali it's almost 5, in LA closer to 7.
