Today Uber Leaks is on the news. Travis Kalanick and his executives apparently recognised on tape "being illegal" and "breaking the law".

Now these people are flooding our cities with ghost kitchens and swarms of motorbike deliveries. I hope town hall around the wall stop them short and prevent them from ruining our cities.

Next company, Airbnb... you'll see. They were also breaking the law for years and years...

Biden has hurt the gas production industry in America, by closing the Keystone pipeline, etc., and now gas prices are double. He is now taking our reserves and sending them to Europe and China.

Oil from U.S. reserves sent overseas as gasoline prices stay high
July 3 (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc founder Jeff Bezos renewed his spat with the White House over the weekend, as the world's third-richest person criticized President Joe Biden for calling on companies running gasoline stations to lower their prices.

In a tweet on Saturday, Biden said, "this is a time of war and global peril," and demanded the companies lower gasoline prices, which have soared to about $5 a gallon in many parts of the country.

"Bring down the price you are charging at the pump to reflect the cost you're paying for the product. And do it now," the president said.

Bezos soon after wrote on Twitter: "Ouch. Inflation is far too important a problem for the White House to keep making statements like this. It's either straight ahead misdirection or a deep misunderstanding of basic market dynamics."

On Sunday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre rejected the criticism from Bezos, arguing that oil prices had dropped by about $15 a barrel in the past month while prices at the pump had "barely" fallen.

It's about time for the European Commission to make American Big Tech pay the bill:

The Uber whistleblower: I'm exposing a system that sold people a lie

Big Tech does not comply with our laws and does not pay taxes. These companies have to be fined and expelled from the European single market.

Airbnb is another company that needs to be fined and expelled from Europe.


Those Uber lobbyists met with top EU politicians and influential people like the IMF managing director. The article on TheGuardian is full of pictures.. people from Uber meeting with Emmanuel Macron, Kristalina Giorgieva (IMF) etc etc

At the same time, taxi drivers were fighting for their jobs.. and Travis Kalanick was getting richer and richer.

The corruption of the Biden family has never been more evident. He should have been impeached by now.

REVEALED: Joe Biden sold nearly ONE MILLION oil barrels from emergency reserves to state-owned Chinese gas giant that Hunter's private equity firm had $1.7B stake in
By HARRIET ALEXANDER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM
PUBLISHED: 9 July 2022
  • Joe Biden in April authorized the release of a million barrels of oil a day from the Strategic Petroleum Reserves
  • He said it 'will help address supply disruptions caused by Putin's further invasion of Ukraine and the Price Hike that Americans are facing at the pump'
  • Last week it emerged that the Biden administration had in fact sent five million barrels abroad
  • On Thursday it emerged that 950,000 barrels were being sold to the Chinese state-owned China Petrochemical Corporation, known as Sinopec
  • On Friday, it further emerged that Hunter Biden's private equity firm bought a $1.7 billion stake in Sinopec seven years ago
  • Hunter's lawyers in November said that he no longer holds a stake in the investment company
Joe Biden has sold 950,000 barrels of the United States' Strategic Petroleum Reserve to a state-owned Chinese firm which Hunter Biden's private equity firm held a $1.7 billion stake, reports say.

Last week it emerged five million barrels of oil have been sent abroad, after the White House claimed releasing them would help ease Americans' pain at the pumps.

The president was first slammed when it emerged between a fifth and a sixth of the reserve oil he bragged about releasing to boost supply made its way offshore to Europe and Asia in June.

Then on Friday it further emerged some of the oil was shipped to a firm previously connected to the president's son.

The 950,000 barrels were sold to Unipec, the trading arm of the China Petrochemical Corporation - better known as Sinopec.

Sinopec is also tied to the private equity firm BHR Partners - which Hunter co-founded in 2013.

In 2015, BHR bought a $1.7 billion stake in Sinopec, The Federalist reported.

In Spain the "idiot in charge", I mean... our "president" has just announced extra taxes on banks and energy companies.... and stocks are falling... and falling... and falling.

That's what happens when communists "rule" a country.

At least BoJo was a clown one could laugh at! Rishi Sunak actually supported all the Brexit nonsense and BoJo's policies, so he should be on the same boat as BoJo: political corpse.

This guy is not even funny like BoJo with his bad hair and clownish appearance... just a filthy rich billionaire who will only look after his own interests:

Flashback: Random quotes from The Guardian, in Nov. 2020 regarding the U.S. Presidential election. They supported Biden, and they got what they wanted. Reading their condemnations of Biden's recent activities in the Middle East, I wonder how the election of Biden is working out for them now.

If the Guardian had a vote, it would be cast to elect Joe Biden as president next Tuesday. Mr Biden has what it takes to lead the United States. Mr Trump does not. Mr Biden cares about his nation's history, its people, its constitutional principles and its place in the world. Mr Trump does not. Mr Biden wants to unite a divided country. Mr Trump stokes an anger that is wearing it down

Mr Biden, a Catholic proud of his Irish roots, has already warned the Johnson government that it must not jeopardise the Good Friday agreement in its Brexit negotiations.

Mr Biden would return the United States to the Paris agreement and give the world a fighting chance to keep global temperatures in check. With a President Biden there would be a glimmer of hope that the US would return as a guarantor of a rules-based international order.

Anything other than a vote for Mr Biden is a vote to unleash a supercharged Trumpism. All pretence of civility would be dropped. The divides of race, class and sex would become even wider. Mr Trump is a symptom of America's decline. Finding a solution to this problem begins with a vote for Mr Biden.​

We have the most oil of any country in the world, yet Biden is begging for it from a man who murdered an American journalist and has presided over 81 beheadings so far in 2022, in Saudi Arabia.

The Ronald continues to gain traction in the swing states. His message on education is polling really well in the battleground states.

I think Trump wants Ron DeSantis to be his running mate... but not sure if DeSantis will want to serve as Vice President though. He currently has good momentum going for him atm.

Biden just does worse, and worse, and the Democrats are still chasing after Trump. Will they ever learn? Apparently not.

Biden approval rating falls to 36%, matching record low: Reuters/Ipsos poll

WASHINGTON, July 19 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden's public approval rating fell to 36% this week to tie the lowest rating of his 19 months in the White House as inflation takes its toll on American life, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll completed on Tuesday.

The two-day national poll found that 59% of Americans disapprove of Biden's job performance.

Biden's approval rating has been below 50% since August 2021 and has hovered around its record-low since first hitting it in May, raising alarms his Democratic Party is on track to lose control of at least one chamber of Congress in the Nov. 8 midterm election. Biden's rating fell three percentage points from 39% a week earlier.

I wish Pedro The Communist quits too and Spain can elect a better president in a general election.

Investing now in Spain is unthinkable. I think Fidel Castro created a more investor friendly environment than the current Spanish government.

Today it would be just common sense for the ECB to raise interest rates by 100 basic points, but of course that useless Lagarde will not do it...

Lagarde is being paid to do a job she's not prepared to do.
