    TESLA CYBERTRUCK Firestorm: Shocking Arson Charges Rock Missouri

    Federal agents have charged 19-year-old Owen McIntire from Parkville, Missouri, after a fire destroyed two Tesla Cybertrucks at a Kansas City dealership on March 17. The Department of Justice says McIntire is accused of using an unregistered destructive device and setting fire to property involved in interstate business. Police arrived to find smoke pouring from the lot. They discovered an unused Molotov cocktail near the burning trucks. The blaze damaged both Cybertrucks — each worth over $100,000 — and ruined two charging stations. The FBI’s Boston office announced McIntire’s arrest Friday and shared photos of the suspect and explosive devices. Journalist Andy Ngô reported that McIntire “appears to be trans” and was allegedly dressed in women’s clothing during the attack. This shocking act raises new questions about safety at car dealerships and how federal law enforcement handles these dangerous crimes. Many are watching closely as this case develops.

    ANTI-TRUMP Protests Erupt: Outrage and Chaos Sweep Across America

    Anti-Trump protests broke out in cities and small towns across the country on Saturday. Marchers filled Manhattan streets, crowds gathered near the White House, and activists spelled out “Impeach & Remove” on a San Francisco beach.

    In Massachusetts, protesters joined a Revolutionary War reenactment to compare their cause to America’s original fight for freedom. Thomas Bassford, an 80-year-old from Maine, said, “This is a very perilous time in America for liberty.”

    Some groups targeted Trump adviser Elon Musk by protesting outside Tesla dealerships. Others focused on community service activities like food drives and volunteering at shelters.

    These demonstrations come just two weeks after similar protests against President Trump’s administration — showing ongoing anger and unrest among left-wing activists nationwide.

    US PEACE TALKS Warning: Rubio’s Bold Move Could Change Ukraine War

    US PEACE TALKS Warning: Rubio’s Bold Move Could Change Ukraine War

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned Friday that the U.S. might walk away from Ukraine-Russia peace talks if both sides don’t show real progress soon. Speaking before leaving France, Rubio said Moscow and Kyiv aren’t taking talks seriously. “We’re not going to be flying all over the world and do meeting after meeting if no progress is being made,” he told reporters.

    Rubio made it clear that America won’t keep joining pointless meetings just for show. He said the U.S. wants to help end the war in a fair and lasting way, but only if either side truly wants peace.

    If Russia or Ukraine doesn’t show they’re ready to compromise soon, Rubio hinted President Trump could decide it’s time for America to step back from negotiations. Still, he left open the chance for future talks if things change.

    Many conservatives agree with Rubio’s tough stance, saying America should not waste time or resources on endless discussions that go nowhere while our own country faces serious problems at home.

    TRUMP’S Bold Harvard Threat Ignites Fury as Political Violence Surges

    TRUMP’S Bold Harvard Threat Ignites Fury as Political Violence Surges

    Former President Donald Trump is taking a hard stand against Harvard University. He wants to strip its tax-exempt status and freeze $2.2 billion in federal funds unless the school ends DEI programs and works with immigration officials. Barack Obama called Trump’s plan “unlawful,” but many conservatives see it as a needed pushback against elite institutions. In Pennsylvania, Governor Josh Shapiro’s home was set on fire in an arson attack while his family was inside. This comes after last year’s attempt on Trump’s life, raising alarms about growing political violence across the country. The suspect in the arson case was let out on bail despite a violent past, leading many to question law enforcement choices. Meanwhile, France is facing its own political storm. Marine Le Pen, leader of the far-right movement, has been convicted of embezzlement and banned from running for president until 2030. Le Pen says she is being targeted by her opponents to keep her out of power. Americans are worried about rising crime and chaos in their cities. National Guard troops have been sent into areas hit by youth crime and violence. The nation remains divided over issues like immigration policy, abortion laws, transgender rights, and how federal money should be spent — all while political tensions keep rising.

    KOHBERGER TRIAL Shock: Judge Slams Defense’s Desperate Move to Hide Evidence

    KOHBERGER TRIAL Shock: Judge Slams Defense’s Desperate Move to Hide Evidence

    Bryan Kohberger’s lawyers are trying hard to block key evidence and words from his murder trial. He is charged with killing four University of Idaho students and faces a burglary charge, too. Judge Steven Hippler ruled that prosecutors can’t call Kohberger a “psychopath” or “sociopath” unless an expert backs it up. Still, the judge said they can call him a “murderer” during closing arguments. The defense also wanted to keep out what they called “inflammatory evidence,” like graphic crime scene photos. Judge Hippler disagreed, saying jurors need to see the true “brutal and horrific” nature of the crimes. A former FBI agent says these tactics are meant to trick jurors by hiding how serious this case really is. The trial keeps making headlines because of its shocking details and national interest.

    MYSTERIOUS DAMAGE to Swedish Data Cables Sparks International Concern

    MYSTERIOUS DAMAGE to Swedish Data Cables Sparks International Concern

    Sweden’s Accident Investigation Board released a report showing uncertainty about whether data cables were intentionally damaged in Swedish waters. Investigators faced limited access to information, leaving many questions unanswered.

    The investigation was mainly led by Chinese authorities, with Sweden only observing. This setup has sparked concerns about the transparency and depth of the findings. Many wonder if all details have been revealed.

    Swedish prosecutors can choose to continue their own independent investigation. The incident involved the Yi Peng 3, a bulk carrier that dragged its port anchor over 180 nautical miles in November 2024.

    The situation raises alarms over international maritime safety and data security, urging Sweden to take decisive action for clarity and protection of its waters and infrastructure.

    FAA’S URGENT Review: New York Helicopter Crash Sparks Outrage

    FAA’S URGENT Review: New York Helicopter Crash Sparks Outrage

    The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has launched an “immediate review” of New York Helicopter Tours’ license and safety record. This comes after a tragic crash that killed five Spanish tourists and a pilot. The FAA is working with the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) in their ongoing investigation of the incident.

    Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer called on federal authorities to halt New York Helicopter Tours’ operations until safety is guaranteed. At a press conference by the Hudson River, he highlighted the company’s “deadly track record.” Schumer stressed preventing future tragedies to honor those who died in this crash.

    The victims were Agustin Escobar, a Siemens executive, his wife Merce Camprubi Montal, their three children, and pilot Seankese Johnson. The helicopter crashed upside down into the Hudson River after its main rotor and tail broke apart mid-flight, as seen in online videos.

    This incident has sparked serious concerns about helicopter tour safety in New York City. Lawmakers and citizens alike are questioning whether enough precautions are being taken to protect passengers from such deadly accidents in the future.

    TRUMP’S Bold Move: Electronics Spared from China Tariffs

    The Trump administration announced a major decision to exclude electronics like smartphones and laptops from reciprocal tariffs. This move aims to keep consumer electronics prices steady. Big tech companies such as Apple and Samsung, along with chip makers like Nvidia, are expected to benefit from this decision.

    U.S. Customs and Border Protection confirmed that items like smartphones, laptops, hard drives, flat-panel monitors, and some chips qualify for the exemption. Machines used in semiconductor production are also excluded from the 145% tariffs on China or the 10% baseline elsewhere. This change marks a strategic shift in Trump’s tariff policy amid ongoing trade tensions with China.

    The exemption acknowledges that current tariffs won’t likely bring manufacturing of gadgets like iPhones back to the U.S., despite earlier predictions. Apple’s established supply chain in China makes domestic production costly and time-consuming, potentially tripling iPhone prices if moved stateside.

    Trump’s decision echoes similar relief granted during his first term’s trade war but comes after initial attempts at broader tariff imposition led to market instability for tech giants like Apple. The move suggests a recalibration of strategy as economic realities challenge earlier ambitions for U.S.-based manufacturing of popular electronics.

    GREENPEACE’S SHOCKING Stunt at US Embassy Exposed

    GREENPEACE’S SHOCKING Stunt at US Embassy Exposed

    Greenpeace activists, led by UK figurehead Will McCallum, were arrested after a bold protest at the U.S. embassy in London. They poured “blood-red dye” into a pond to protest U.S. arms sales to Israel amid the Gaza conflict. The group cleverly used bicycles disguised as delivery bikes to transport containers of non-toxic dye labeled "Stop Arming Israel.

    The Metropolitan Police acted quickly, arresting six individuals for criminal damage and conspiracy charges. A spokesperson confirmed that no breach of the secure perimeter occurred since the pond is accessible via a public footpath.

    This protest underscores Greenpeace’s ongoing controversial tactics, even as they face financial troubles and possible bankruptcy. The group’s methods continue to ignite debate over their effectiveness and legality in highlighting international issues.;

    BIRMINGHAM GARBAGE Strike Chaos: Rats, Fires, and Political Clashes

    Garbage has piled up in Birmingham for a month due to a dispute between the city and trash collectors. Residents report seeing rats as large as cats among the refuse. Talks failed on Monday but are set to resume Tuesday, marking the fifth week of the strike.

    Members of Unite, representing garbage truck workers, walked off on March 11 over job cuts and pay reductions. The Labour-run Birmingham City Council claims its offer is reasonable, affecting only a few jobs deemed unnecessary. The council faces financial strain from a historic pay discrimination settlement, forcing budget cuts of £300 million over two years.

    As trash bags overflow onto sidewalks and critters chew through them, the city declared a major incident to deploy extra cleanup crews. Photos show illegally dumped furniture and burning garbage sacks in neighborhoods. The U.K.’s Labour government faces criticism from opposition parties but insists it’s a local issue while urging both sides toward resolution.

    AMERICANS CHARGED in Congo Coup Attempt: Shocking Details Revealed

    Three AMERICANS face charges for their role in a coup attempt to overthrow Congo’s government, says the U.S. Justice Department. They were initially sentenced to death in Congo but had their sentences reduced to life imprisonment before being sent back to the U.S. A fourth person, an explosives expert, is also charged for his involvement.

    The failed coup last year was led by opposition figure Christian Malanga and resulted in six deaths. Among those charged is 22-year-old Marcel Malanga, son of the deceased leader of the coup attempt. His father livestreamed from the presidential palace during the attack and was killed while resisting arrest.

    The charges come from an FBI investigation that uncovered plans by these men to supply weapons and explosives to a rebel army aiming to topple Congo’s government. Their return aligns with Congolese talks about a minerals deal with America, seeking security help against rebels in eastern Congo.

    IRS TECH OVERHAUL Promises BIG Changes for Taxpayers

    The IRS is set to roll out its Technical Roadmapping Initiative, aiming to modernize and streamline its tech systems. This move seeks to improve taxpayer services, enhance data security, and boost efficiency. A team of skilled IRS engineers will work on creating efficient systems for American taxpayers.

    A seminar called the IRS Roadmapping Kickoff will launch this week, featuring strategy sessions led by these engineers. They plan to update the agency’s outdated tech infrastructure that’s been around for decades. Central to this effort is a unified API system for secure communication and better management of taxpayer info.

    This modernization aligns with President Donald Trump’s commitment to transparency and responsible use of taxpayer resources. A senior tech executive at the IRS highlighted new features like a “Where is my refund?” tool that could help Americans track their federal tax returns more easily.

    TRUMP’S BOLD Defense of US Trade Tariffs Stirs Controversy

    Former President Donald Trump is firmly defending the sweeping tariffs from his time in office, despite facing backlash. He argues these tariffs are vital to protect American jobs and industries, saying, “sometimes you have to take medicine.”

    Critics warn these tariffs might raise consumer prices and spark retaliation from countries like China. Analysts suggest Trump’s stance could energize his base in key battleground states where manufacturing jobs matter most.

    Trump supporters believe the tariffs will revive American manufacturing, even as protests against them grow in various cities. Demonstrators claim the economic impact will hit the working class hardest.

    The tariff debate becomes crucial ahead of elections, shaping voter opinions and party strategies. Republican leaders are split on Trump’s policies, with some worried about possible economic fallout.

    MARKET PANIC: Bitcoin and Stocks Plummet in US Tariff Chaos

    Bitcoin dropped below $80,000 on Sunday, falling over 3% in just two hours. This decline happened alongside major losses in U.S. stock markets. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite both closed nearly 6% lower on April 4. Analyst Holger Zschaepitz noted the stock market lost $8.2 trillion, surpassing losses from the worst week of the 2008 financial crisis.

    The market chaos comes from recent U.S. tariffs that have sparked widespread sell-offs across many sectors. Despite this turmoil, some investors see potential buying opportunities as stocks are now trading at historically low valuations of 15 times future earnings projections.

    Jim Cramer has warned this could be just the start of a bigger downturn for the S&P 500, predicting a further meltdown of up to 20%. As of Sunday night, S&P futures were down about 4%. Global stocks have already lost $7.46 trillion since April 2nd and may exceed $10 trillion if recent sell-offs continue to unfold.;

    TRUMP’S Auto TAX Shock: Jaguar Land Rover Halts US Shipments

    Jaguar Land Rover is pausing shipments to the U.S. due to President Trump’s 25% import tax on vehicles. This British auto giant is adjusting its strategy to cope with new trade rules. The halt aims to help the company plan for long-term responses to these tariffs.

    Experts say other British carmakers might follow Jaguar Land Rover’s lead. The higher tariffs add strain on an already struggling industry facing low domestic demand and a shift toward electric cars. “I expect similar stoppages from other producers,” said David Bailey, an automotive expert from the University of Birmingham.

    The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) noted a 13.9% drop in U.K.-made cars last year, with over 77% exported mainly to the U.S. Factories making models like Nissan’s Qashqai and Juke are also feeling the heat from these issues.

    SMMT’s chief executive, Mike Hawes, stressed that faster trade talks are crucial for supporting jobs and economic growth in both countries as they navigate these challenges together.

    Yoon’s removal is expected to bring big changes in South Korean politics. These shifts might affect domestic policy and international relations, especially with North Korea. This situation highlights wider geopolitical tensions in the area.

    US TRADE Policies Cause GLOBAL Economic Jitters

    Recent U.S. tariffs have left Canadian small businesses facing economic challenges, leading to job cuts and price hikes. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business reports nine percent of owners have issued layoff notices due to these tariffs. Businesses are raising prices by an average of 3.7 percent this month as they struggle with rising costs and decreased consumer spending.

    In Alberta, business leaders feel cautiously optimistic after avoiding new U.S.-imposed tariffs that threatened the energy sector. Adam Legge from the Business Council of Alberta feels relieved but remains wary about future trade developments under current policies.

    President Trump’s tariff strategy aims to equalize import taxes with those imposed by other nations, sparking debate over its economic impact on sectors like agriculture and manufacturing. Meanwhile, Japan’s Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba expressed disappointment over Japan’s exclusion from tariff exemptions and plans support for affected industries domestically.

    These developments highlight growing concerns about global economic instability driven by U.S. trade policies, particularly affecting small businesses worldwide as they navigate uncertain financial landscapes.

    National Weather Service

    WEATHER SERVICE Shortage Sparks Safety Fears

    The National Weather Service is critically understaffed, with nearly half of its forecast offices facing 20% vacancy rates. This shortage coincides with a rise in severe weather events across the country. In Arkansas, where tornadoes and heavy rain recently struck, eight offices report over 35% vacancies.

    Experts warn these staffing levels put public safety at risk. The service issues urgent warnings during dangerous storms like the recent tornadoes that caused seven deaths and ongoing catastrophic flooding. With at least 75 tornado reports this week alone, meteorologists are under increasing pressure.

    In Kentucky, shortages forced meteorologists to choose between immediate warnings and future forecasting improvements. Brad Colman, a former American Meteorological Society president, voiced concerns about potential loss of life due to these shortages. Former National Weather Service chief Louis Uccellini echoed these worries about stretched resources amid rising severe weather threats nationwide.

    FOREIGN STUDENTS as Pawns: How Hamas Manipulates US Campuses

    FOREIGN STUDENTS as Pawns: How Hamas Manipulates US Campuses

    Al-Ketbi warns that foreign students are being manipulated by terrorist groups like Hamas, backed by Iran. His comments follow the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian-born Columbia University graduate facing deportation for pro-Hamas activities. Khalil’s case highlights how extremist groups exploit U.S. immigration laws to infiltrate society.

    Khalil is accused of being a Hamas sympathizer with anti-American views, linked to violent campus activities at Columbia University. Videos show him urging protesters to “destroy” and “explode the heads of Zionists.” Al-Ketbi warns this is part of a pattern where foreign students act as proxies for hostile regimes like Iran on American campuses.

    Student groups such as Columbia University’s Apartheid Divest and Students for Justice in Palestine are cited as platforms spreading antisemitic or pro-terrorism discourse under humanitarian pretenses. Al-Ketbi emphasizes that these organizations often mask their true intentions behind human rights activism while promoting dangerous ideologies.

    He argues that U.S. academic institutions are vulnerable due to inadequate vetting and misuse of free speech protections. Universities must prevent political or terrorist exploitation to safeguard against these threats, according to Al-Ketbi’s analysis in the Saudi outlet Elaph translated by MEMRI.

Jason McAllister of Irving Personal Care reported their Canadian-made diapers’ weekly shipments have quadrupled, showing this shift in buyer behavior.

    The movement worries U.S.-based consumer companies that depended on the Canadian market for growth chances. Executives are now rethinking strategies as they face more difficulties entering the Canadian retail space amid rising protectionist feelings.

    STOCK MARKET Chaos: US Faces Economic Fears as Tariffs Loom

    U.S. stocks took a nosedive today as President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” approaches, bringing potential tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum imports. Analysts warn these tariffs could trigger a market downturn and increase recession risks. Wolfe Research has already revised U.S. growth estimates for 2025 down to 1.6%.

    Retail giant Kohl’s experienced its worst trading day since 1992, with stocks tumbling by 26% after issuing disappointing guidance for the year. Investor anxiety is also heightened by an upcoming House vote on a stopgap funding bill, adding to market volatility.

    CHINESE MIGRANTS Surge: Florida’s Wealthy Enclave Under Pressure

    CHINESE MIGRANTS Surge: Florida’s Wealthy Enclave Under Pressure

    A wave of Chinese migrants arriving by boat in South Florida is sparking a human smuggling investigation. Coral Gables, known for its wealthy neighborhoods and Mediterranean Revival architecture, is seeing this unusual influx. The rise in migrant interceptions highlights a broader trend across Florida since 2020.

    U.S. Customs and Border Protection data shows a big jump in Chinese nationals entering the state, from 406 in 2020 to 723 by 2024 — a shocking 78% increase. This trend raises concerns about China’s growing influence near affluent American areas like Coral Gables’ Gables Estates, the priciest housing market nationwide according to Zillow.

    Eric Brown, a retired Green Beret and CEO of Imperio Consulting, notes that Coral Gables’ closeness to international waterways makes it an appealing entry point for migrants. “Coral Gables is right next to international waters,” Brown explained, stressing its strategic location just 90 miles from Cuba’s coastline. This geographical edge may be aiding the recent rise in migrant arrivals from China.

    “Cardinal McElroy’s SHOCKING Critique of Trump’s IMMIGRATION Policies”

    Cardinal Robert McElroy criticized policies he likens to crusades and mass deportations, urging a more welcoming approach to immigration. Speaking in Washington D.C., he advocated for secure borders that respect human dignity and generous asylum policies. He believes most Americans would support these changes.

    McElroy indirectly targeted former President Trump’s immigration strategies, suggesting they lack compassion for Americans. He referenced the Good Samaritan story to emphasize kindness in handling global migration issues. According to McElroy, this narrative should guide U.S. government actions on immigration matters.

    Pope Francis’s teachings were highlighted by McElroy, who stressed recognizing both victimhood and wrongdoing within ourselves as part of Christian conversion. This introspection is crucial for addressing migration complexities ethically and compassionately.

    Despite these calls for empathy, the financial aspects of migration complicate distinctions between travelers, robbers, and helpers today. Economic implications often overshadow moral considerations in policy discussions on immigration reform.

    EL PASO Shooter Escapes Death Penalty: Families Seek Closure

    The gunman behind the 2019 El Paso Walmart shooting will avoid the DEATH penalty due to a new plea deal. Patrick Crusius, who killed 23 in a racially driven attack, will serve life without parole. This decision concludes years of prosecutors’ efforts to seek execution by lethal injection.

    El Paso County District Attorney James Montoya revealed the plea offer, highlighting victims’ families’ wish for closure as crucial. He stressed that this choice avoids lengthy legal battles and appeals. “No more hearings. No more appeals,” Montoya declared, ensuring Crusius will die in prison without further public attention.

    Not all families supported Montoya’s decision to drop the death penalty pursuit. The previous leadership had vowed to try Crusius for capital punishment. Still, many view this as a chance for healing and finality within the community impacted by one of America’s deadliest mass shootings.

    Crusius has already been sentenced at the federal level to 90 consecutive life terms after pleading guilty to hate crime charges earlier this year. His attorney, Mark Stevens, did not immediately comment on Tuesday’s plea offer announcement.

    TRUMP’S BOLD Move: US to Join British Commonwealth?

    TRUMP’S BOLD Move: US to Join British Commonwealth?

    Former President Donald Trump is excited about the United States possibly joining the British Commonwealth. He shared his thoughts on Truth Social, linking to a Daily Mail report suggesting King Charles III might offer associate membership during Trump’s next state visit to Britain. “I love King Charles,” Trump said, adding that the idea “sounds good” to him.

    The British Commonwealth, formed in 1926, includes 56 countries like Australia and Canada, many of which were former British colonies. The monarch serves as the head of this voluntary group. Queen Elizabeth II focused heavily on maintaining these ties throughout her reign.

    Fox News Digital has asked the White House for comments on this potential development but hasn’t received a response yet. Meanwhile, experts believe Prince William sees strong ties with figures like Trump as vital for the monarchy’s future stability and influence worldwide.

    IDAHO MURDERS: Shocking New Evidence Against Kohberger

    IDAHO MURDERS: Shocking New Evidence Against Kohberger

    New court filings in the Idaho student murders case could severely impact Bryan Kohberger’s defense. Legal experts highlight that Kohberger allegedly bought a Ka-Bar knife on Amazon months before the murders and searched for a replacement shortly after. This evidence adds to the mounting challenges faced by his defense team.

    Bryan Kohberger, a former criminology Ph.D. student, is accused of killing four University of Idaho students with a large bladed weapon. The victims — Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin — suffered multiple stab wounds according to Latah County Coroner Cathy Mabbutt. Prosecutors noted that at least two victims were too intoxicated to resist during the attack.

    A Ka-Bar knife sheath found under Mogen’s body contained DNA allegedly linked to Kohberger, further complicating his defense strategy. Prosecutors also shared an alleged selfie taken by Kohberger hours after the murders as part of their evidence against him.

    Experts argue that the timing of his purchases and searches will be hard for his defense to justify in court. The prosecution’s detailed presentation of this digital trail significantly strengthens their case against him.

    “Social Security IDENTITY Checks Trigger OUTRAGE Among Millions”

    The Social Security Administration’s new plan requires in-person identity checks for millions, stirring concern among lawmakers and advocacy groups. This change aims to fight fraud, a priority highlighted by President Trump. However, the closure of government offices at the same time has sparked criticism.

    Starting March 31st, those unable to verify their identity online must visit an SSA field office. Yet, with 47 field offices set to close and mass layoffs planned, service delays are expected. This raises fears of increased barriers for vulnerable populations needing Social Security services.

    Nancy LeaMond from AARP criticized eliminating phone verification as impractical and warned it would cause longer wait times. She stressed the need for transparency and input from affected older Americans.

    OIL PRICE Shock: US Sanctions Ignite Global Fears

    Oil prices soared more than 3% after the US hit Chinese and Iranian oil sectors with tough new sanctions. The Treasury Department targeted a Chinese refinery accused of buying $1 billion in Iranian oil. It also punished companies and ships tied to Iran’s “sanctions-evasion” tactics. These bold moves shook energy markets, causing the first weekly rise in crude prices in three weeks.

    Experts say this jump shows real worry about supply problems as Washington cracks down on both buyers and sellers. OPEC’s latest report points to rising uncertainty, with the US showing it will go after even big players like China for breaking energy rules. The Biden administration’s push for higher tariffs is making things even tenser worldwide.

    China fired back by stopping imports of US liquefied natural gas since February, heating up the tariff fight even more. Some Asian countries are now turning to American energy sources to dodge higher tariffs from China, which could change global trade routes for oil and gas. This could cause even more chaos across supply chains everywhere.

    Analysts warn that if Washington and Beijing keep trading blows, it could spark a deeper crisis or an energy shortage. As leaders rush to find answers, one thing is clear: today’s wild swings in oil prices are being driven by politics as much as market forces — if not more so.;
