Time to rename the Strait of Hormuz to the Strait of America.
More like the Strait of Confusion.
Trump has caused the Worlds biggest traffic jam.
The President is capturing control of the world’s energy sources. First Venezuela, to control our hemisphere, and now throttling the Middle East. LNG to heat Europe this winter may very well come from the US. As oil prices rise, which states benefit? Maybe MAGA states? Which states suffer? Maybe blue states? The US can choose to be a net exporter of oil. $85+ per barrel of oil means drill, baby, drill! That will mean more jobs and more sales of supplies TO drill to Red states. Folks with the means to be mobile are moving to parts of the country where the cost of living is less and jobs are plentiful which means less taxes from those who create income to share with those who consume others income.
Iran says, “We will shut down the Strait of Hormuz!” The president says, “Fine. We will CONTROL the Strait and rename it the Strait of America!”
What some may see as confusion, others see as shrewd moves on a chess board. Invest in US energy funds. Your future self will thank you!
“Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum”
High oil prices only benefit Trump’s billionaire oil company friends.
Who are……..?
Well, beginning with his family…
I saw your “test” comment — are you having trouble with the Member login too?
I started having issues on Monday. Yesterday, I couldn’t comment or reply (it looked like I hadn’t logged in), but I could still like/dislike comments. Weird!
Kym, was something on the site changed recently? Today, I can log in from Safari on my iPhone, but it kicks me out as soon as the page refreshes and I can’t log in at all from my laptop. Please help if you can?
Me too. I log in, go to the site, logged out.

I wonder if https://kymkemp.com/2026/04/14/humboldt-county-jail-reports-daily-booking-sheet-april-14-2026/#comment-1917163 has anything to do with login problems…
Downdetector is showing problems all over the place with many websites as of 4:30 pm. Verizon has been having issues all day. Some websites I post to regularly are getting log in and “Cloudflare 520” errors and comment section issues, like delayed posts, or not posting at all from any browser Cloudflare status page.
I think the issues are outside of what RHBB devs can do at the moment.
This is just a sampling as of 7PM.
Are those sites you had problems with all WordPress?
If so cause here was bug in the Breeze plug-in. (Fix hasn’t made it to Breeze yet https://wordpress.org/plugins/breeze/ last update 1 week ago)
No it’s just a screenshot of the myriad of companies having issues reported to Downdetector. There’s more, but all around the same time. I have had issues with wordpress but not through RHBB. As of 12AM they seem to have resolved and Cloudflare is in a planned maintenance mode at some data centers so traffic is being rerouted here and there.
Yikes. Thanks for the info. Fingers crossed it clears up soon.
We think ours is cleared!
working fine for me! Thanks Kym, Lisa, dev…
Yay — it seems to be working for me now too!
Thank you Kym, Lisa, melanopsin, and everyone who helped resolve the issue.
Yes. Kym & I & her dev have been working on it since Monday noonish…
I don’t know if site has changed.
Seems to be related to Cloudflare cookie setting imo.
Korina42 is also having the login problem. The more of us who can tell Kym device/browser info the better imo. All my devices Samsung phone & Tablet, Linux desktop exhibit same symptoms. I’m on Firefox. Tried Chromium earlier today — same exact symptoms. ISP doesn’t seem to matter either — I’m on USCellular; Starlink same symptoms.
In April 2024, President Donald Trump told a group of oil and gas industry executives that if they donated and raised $1 billion for his 2024 campaign, he would, upon reelection, immediately reverse numerous environmental regulations and policies enacted by the Biden administration.

Untrue statement. High oil prices also benefit those of us who are not billionaires who are shrewd enough to invest in American companies in energy sectors. Same as high utility costs benefit those of us investing in PG&E.
“shrewd” is a misnomer… the “shrewd” are perpetuating high prices for energy through a positive feedback loop.
“It hurts when I do that”
“Don’t do that!”
Even lil Barron made like $173 milli on the dip last week by shorting right before the “big” announcement. And he’s an immigrant! That’s an investment in the American Children. At least once his DACA process is final.
You say “shrewd,” I say “vulture.”
And therein lies the problem. The positive feedback loop with negative consequences.
“Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum” Words to live by !
Higher fuel prices are great! It’s fun to see all the truck drivers and farmers,and construction boys and little people going to work er day making me rich!!!
Hey do you want to trade some Melania, and/or some shares in a Trump watch for some of your oils? I’d even take some LA oil. But at a discount. California oil is weak obviously.
Pretty soon we’ll get all the oil in Lebanon too!
I’m enjoying the extremely shrewd moves by POTUS. If this was checkers, can you even imagine how shrewd the moves would seem?!! No wonder he looks tired and a little sweaty sometimes.
The Iranians can do AI slop too.

No to AI.
This Day In History
On April 15, 1974, Patty Hearst and the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) robbed the Hibernia Bank in San Francisco, getting away with $10,000.
Bottom right, Nancy Ling Perry was a Santa Rosan. Her dad owned Lings Furniture Store.
Coffee hasn’t kicked in, bottom left. The days following Taco Tuesday are always rough.
Aww yes the SLA. Grandmother to antifa/blm. Back when domestic terrorist were well educated and their chic’s were affluent and White, and the men were poor radical community organizers. Look up how it ended for them. Then came the anti nuke, anti logging, equal rights for farm workers, and peta shitheads. Then the occupiers. (Jim Parker?). And alas we have the all of it rolled into moms basement skateboarder antifa fools who hate Trump.
$10,000 wont by a good used camry these days.
But I’ve a a ’97 Tahoe I’d sell ya! Low pro rims. I’d even throw in a Banshee. it started and everything before one of the wives rolled it!
The banshee is actually already loaded in the back of the Tahoe. This is your lucky week!
We could meet up, I think the shrewd investor RightOn is going to trade some $MelaniaCoin for oils. Let’s definitely shoot for a McDonald’s! They’re fairly predictable
Yes but $10,000 in 1974 is $66,980.32 today…that’ll buy almost 2 new Camry’s now…
Hungary’s New Leader Reveals Viktor Orbán Was Paying CPAC
Magyar noted that his government will be investigating Orbán’s expenditures, and will no longer finance CPAC or other right-wing institutions abroad.

On Swalwell: they asked Nancy Pelosi (D). Her response: I’m shocked, shocked! I didn’t know anything about it.
Hard to see anything through the bottom of a vodka bottle.
Ah ha! That explains everything!
The 9 Best Russian Vodka Brands in 2024
https://cocktail-society.com/spirits/russian-vodka-brands/
Where do potatoes originate?
Peru
A rhetorical question, apologies. I don’t know if South America connection is related directly…Russia is famous for its Vodka…
In her defense, Nancy is totally befuddled with dementia (or so she would have her DOJ investigators believe.
Did they ask her about this? U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-San Antonio, said he’s retiring. It comes months after he admitted to an affair with an aide, who later died by suicide.
No, but they did ask Senator Gallegos (D) Arizona – Swalwell’s best buddy. He said: I’m shocked, shocked! I didn’t know nuthin about it.
He was the only one that didn’t know he was going down. It was all about where one was
standing when he fell, like hedging the oil market.
Donald trump believes that diet soda is good for him because it kills cancer cells. His basis for that belief is that if you pour it directly on grass, it kills the grass and therefore it must kill cancer cells.
Science marches on…

Living in your head. You know he was joking about the diet soda, right,…………right?

How crazy good is Trump’s game, you ask?
He actually got TDS-addled athiests to stand up for Jesus.
The man is a damn mind-wizard. 😆
On a side note, the guy that made the meme said it was Trump healing the nation with God speaking through him, not him as God. To argue otherwise is akin to telling an artist that his painting doesn’t mean what he says it means.
What atheists thought was, that Trump once again proved what an idiot he is. Atheists recognize Jesus as a spiritual symbol.
No one thought it made him look like God. It depicted Trump as Christ like.
Which he definitely is not. Heal the nation? The opposite is true.
There also is the fact Trump himself tried to say he thought he was a Red Cross doctor. So Trump didn’t even discuss with the creator what it was about?
The most entertaining thing about all this is all the things his cult members are coming up with to excuse his actions.
Are you sure the established mockers of religion pretending to be offended isn’t the most entertaining thing about all this?
Many others besides atheists mock religion. Ever different religions mock other religions.
Though some atheists may mock religion most just engage in what is called secular criticism.
As far as this Trump thing goes you don’t seem to understand what the objection is really about
God speaks through trump? FUCK THAT. That’s as blasphemous as the original interpretation.
I don’t give a rat’s ass about Jesus and I’m not standing up for him. I’m standing up for the millions of citizens who do believe. I’d be just as pissed if he had disrespected and insulted the followers of Moses, Mohammed, Buddha, Ganesh, or Vishnu.
As for Mr. Clark’s claim that he’s joking, that just won’t fly. Every time he opens his mouth, he says such bat shit crazy things that ordinary people just pray that he’s joking and usually come to find that he is dead serious.
P.S. If you reply to this, please don’t belittle me by calling me a trump hater.
I’m a TRUMP HATER.
We pray for you.
Are you crazy, you think Trump was serious about the grass and cancer? He was giving Dr, Oz and RFKjr a hard time messing with them. FFS.
And I see Trump has a room in your head too.
TDS deranged lib-nerds hate the Jesus and everything he stands for. They just want Trump to be so popular so they can poke fun at him.
The artist obviously saw God speaking through Dr. Trump. Not the first Jesus.
Duh!
Well that’s disturbing: robotic delivery company demolishes Chicago bus stop because it can’t see glass.
the last beta test is in the real world, sometimes unfortunately. And military wants autonomous AI…
P.S. Actually there’s a relevant Doctor Who episode with two robotic civilizations battling for control of the Universe — Doctor Who shows how the best they can achieve is a “peaceful” stalemate.
