Promises Made, Promises Kept: Memorial
Day Set For Lowest Gas Prices in Over
20 Years
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/20/2025 7:40:41 PM
Americans celebrating Memorial Day by hitting the road will likely be paying the cheapest gas prices since 2003. GasBuddy, a fuel savings platform, said Tuesday that it forecasts the national average price of gasoline to be $3.08 per gallon on Memorial Day. That would make it the cheapest since 2021 in nominal terms. After adjusting for inflation, it would be the lowest since 2003. This is not expected to be short-lived. Prices of gasoline are expected to average around $3.02 per gallon between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with prices falling below three dollars on some days.

The Senate has voted to overturn the electric vehicle mandate in the state of California. This is going to cause some major anger and anxiety among the climate change activist community.
The EV mandate was one of the last things Joe Biden signed before leaving office. You may recall a last minute push by Biden’s team to advance as much climate change related legislation as they could during his final weeks in office.
The resolution to overturn the mandate passed along party lines with one Democrat senator voting for it as well.
Harmeet Dhillon, who is now the United States Assistant Attorney General under Trump, and runs the civil rights division, just did an interview with Tucker Carlson that is at times fascinating and outrageous.
Dhillon tells Carlson that the civil rights division of DOJ is famously liberal and that when she made it clear that they were going to adjust the division to align with the Trump presidency, that hundreds of lawyers quit. The ones who stuck around, actually held ‘crying sessions’ to express their unhappiness over the new reality.
It’s like they are a bunch of liberal college students who created a safe space. Just pathetic.
“Boy, this burger is great, Roy! What’s your secret?”
“Tom, don’t you know Hillary Clinton says Trump’s new budget is going to increase food insecurity?”
“*&%$ it Roy! I just wanted to enjoy Memorial Day with friends. Shove your burger! C’mon Betty, we’re leaving!”
“Hey, you! Trump blah blah blah! Put that on your burger, you deplorable, you!”
Rather than honoring the military men and women who gave their lives defending their fellow Americans’ right to live in freedom, two-time failed Democratic Party presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is calling on her supporters to bash President Donald Trump and his One Big Beautiful Bill that passed the House this week
President Donald Trump probably has done more work in the first 100 days than Joe Biden did in all the time he occupied the Oval Office, and Trump is still hard at it. He knows he has four years, and he's trying to do all he can in the time he has.
One hallmark of the Trump agenda is to get energy up and going again, to ensure our energy independence, dominance, and security. We're already seeing positives from that agenda, including lower gas prices, including the lowest gas prices for Memorial Day in years.
Part of that energy agenda is nuclear energy.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is not only exceptionally good at her job, but she refuses to suffer fools gladly. NBC News Washington correspondent Yamiche Alcindor found this out the hard way, and it was glorious. On any given day, there are 50 or so correspondents in the briefing room clamoring to be called upon, so when Leavitt acknowledges you and says, "Go ahead," your questions should be well-thought-through and on point. Thursday morning, Alcindor chose to pour milk on stupid and gobble it down.
During Thursday's press briefing, Leavitt acknowledged Alcindor, who started to pose this question:
Democrats unveiled a bill on Thursday that would transfer authority over the US Marshals from the executive branch to the judicial branch to protect them from the Orange Man What Is Bad™.
And what is the point of this? I’m glad you asked, dear reader. It’s simple. Democrats are seemingly concerned that President Donald Trump’s constant criticisms of judges that stymie his agenda are inspiring nutjobs to threaten them, according to CBS News.
The legislation, which was obtained by CBS News, specifies that the presidential administration would lose its authority over the Marshals.
I was supposed to be on a fun little trip this week. It's a long story, but I did something so ridiculously stupid that it prevented me from being able to go on said trip, and I had to postpone it for later in the year. So instead of heading to a little beach town where I'd spend the week swimming in the sea, dancing the night away to live music, and sipping on fruity adult beverages, I spent a large portion of the week parked in front of a livestream of Marco Rubio's congressional hearings.
As RedState reported, two Israeli embassy workers were gunned down in cold blood by a man who chanted "free, free Palestine" in the aftermath. Sarah Milgram and Yaron Lischinsky, who were planning to get engaged soon, were attending an event on collaboration to deliver aid to Gaza when Elias Rodriguez, a member of the Chicago-based Party for Socialism and Liberation, allegedly shot them from behind.
Now, more information is coming out about Rodriguez, who is a "pro-Palestinian" (see: pro-Hamas) activist. Before allegedly carrying out the murders, he released a manifesto online in which he wrote, "Those of us against the genocide
Earlier this week, I made the case that Dr. Kevin O’Connor — Joe Biden’s longtime physician and former White House doctor — should be called to testify before Congress about his role in the cover-up of Biden’s obvious cognitive decline and now his cancer diagnosis. A growing number of medical experts agree that Biden’s condition didn’t just appear out of nowhere; it was likely known about for years. And now, we may finally be seeing the walls start to close in.
On Thursday, House Oversight Chairman James Comer ramped up his investigation into the deliberate and coordinated cover-up, not just of Biden’s mental and physical deterioration,
An effort to sink President Donald Trump’s pick to head the IRS found a Democrat senator closing with an allegation of recorded conversations.
Since the president’s return to the White House, the left has seemingly jumped at every opportunity to obstruct the America First agenda with lawsuits and delay tactics. Tuesday, as the Senate Finance Committee considered the nomination for IRS commissioner, ranking member Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden (D) saw fit to level an allegation in his closing remarks.

Democrats’ unceasing defense of criminal illegal aliens left ICE arresting a foreign national “TWICE” released from custody after an alleged vehicular homicide took a mother’s life.
In Minnesota, the “code talking” Gov. Tim Walz (D) recently reaffirmed that globalist ends justified the consequential means as he likened President Donald Trump’s mass deportation efforts to “modern-day Gestapo.”
Now, the Department of Homeland Security was slamming his “despicable rhetoric” after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had to arrest an Ecuadoran national suspected in the death of a Minnesota mother after the county jail released him a second time in a matter of months.
MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace claimed Wednesday on “Deadline” that President Donald Trump humiliated the people of the United States during his Oval Office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.
Wallace said, “Another day for the history books today from Donald J. Trump. An astonishing display from him in the White House today Donald Trump meeting with the president of South Africa and attempting to ambush and humiliate that leader inside the Oval Office. But what he did instead was embarrass and humiliate the people of the United States of America again, in his meeting with President Ramaphosa,

On Thursday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) talked about wasteful spending on government credit cards.
Ernst said, “[T]he federal government, through GSA credit cards, has 4.6 million active credit cards and accounts…we have a little less than half that number in federal employees.” She added that “a lot” of card usage occurs during federal holidays and on days like New Year’s Eve at “nightclubs, bars” and on “Sunday afternoons, okay, a big UFC fight or something pay-per-view.” And there are also cash withdrawals at casino ATMs.
Ernst further stated that about 500,000 cards have now been canceled.
Judge Jeanine Pirro has only been in the role of U.S. Attorney for D.C. since May 14, but already she’s faced with a serious tragedy after the horrific assassinations of a young couple outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. Thursday night by a crazed antisemite.
As we’ve reported, Elias Rodriguez flew in from his hometown of Chicago, ambushed Israeli Embassy staffers Yaron Lischinsky (30) and Sarah Lynn Milgrim (26), and fired 21 rounds even as Milgrim tried to crawl away in terror.
The two were reportedly set to get engaged next week. It’s an almost unimaginable crime.
On Thursday, Pirro announced that Rodriguez may pay the ultimate penalty
Imagine a kindergarten talent show where every child is handed a microphone, told they’re brilliant, and encouraged to scream whatever they feel. Facts are optional, and tantrums are welcome. Now replace those toddlers with embittered semi-celebrities clinging to cultural relevance, amplify their egos with national airtime, and broadcast it five days a week. That’s The View. What once was pitched as a platform for intelligent dialogue has morphed into a bitter cocktail of rage, identity politics, and intellectual laziness. Once known for its various voices, The View has devolved into a soapbox for those who believe their outrage is a virtue.
Disgraced former FBI Director, James Comey, mysteriously found seashells on his beach walk listing the numbers, “8647,” which to any half-aware person means, “Assassinate President Trump.” Comey posted on Instagram, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk…” and then after push back, he removed it and posted an imbecilic excuse stating, “I didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me, but I oppose violence of any kind, so I took the post down.”
What a deranged idiot!
It’s time to wear the Trump hats again stating, “Trump was right about everything,” concerning firing Comey
During a blistering Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) was visibly floored after Energy Secretary Christopher Wright dropped a bombshell: the Department of Energy handed out a staggering $93 billion in loans and commitments during the final 76 days of the Biden administration, a figure that more than doubled the loan total from the previous 15 years combined.
Kennedy, in classic fashion, drilled in with precision. “The 76-day period you’re talking about, that’s the period between the time that President Trump was elected and President Biden left office. Is that right?”
“That is correct,” Wright confirmed.
Kennedy didn’t mince words
How do you solve a problem like Iran?
14 replies
Many pro-Israel people I know, both Jewish and non-Jewish, are deeply worried about Trump’s current Middle East positions. He’s marginalizing Israel in negotiations with Saudi Arabia, accepting on the government’s behalf a luxury plane from double-dealing Qatar, and handing money to the goons in Syria. At the same time, he’s seemingly freezing out Israel, to the great consternation of Israel and its supporters.
So, what gives? Having read Charles Lipson’s superb analysis of the problems in dealing with an almost nuclear Iran, and how Biden created this monster, I suspect that “what gives” may be Trump trying an out-of-the-box approach to isolating Iran long enough for his economic policies

Disney CEO Bob Iger and ABC News boss Almin Karamehmedovic have urged the hosts of the left-leaning daytime talk show “The View” to scale back their political commentary, particularly their frequent criticisms of President Trump, according to a report. The move has sparked tension behind the scenes at the show, whose outspoken panel has become known for tackling political issues head-on, the Daily Beast reported Wednesday. In February, The Post reported that “The View” executive producer Brian Teta spoke to staffers at the show about “going easy” on Trump-related commentary in the days leading up to the Jan. 20 inauguration
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Thursday revoked Harvard University’s ability to enroll foreign students, prompting the school to immediately file a lawsuit on Friday. Within just hours, like clockwork, a far-left district judge blocked DHS’s action.
U.S. District Court Judge Allison D. Burroughs, an appointee of former President Barack Obama serving in Massachusetts, wrote in a two-page motion granting a temporary restraining order that Harvard “will sustain immediate and irreparable injury before there is an opportunity to hear from all parties.”

WASHINGTON — A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from cutting off Harvard’s enrollment of foreign students, an action the Ivy League school decried as unconstitutional retaliation for defying the White House’s political demands.
In its lawsuit filed earlier Friday in federal court in Boston, Harvard said the government’s action violates the First Amendment and will have an “immediate and devastating effect for Harvard and more than 7,000 visa holders.”
“With the stroke of a pen, the government has sought to erase a quarter of Harvard’s student body, international students who contribute significantly to the University and its mission,” Harvard said in its suit. “Without
There's some breaking news about the shooting this evening. The FBI affidavit in support of the charges against Elias Rodriguez has been released and along with it some disturbing details about the crime.
On Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at approximately 9:08 pm, members of the Metropolitan Police Department's (MPD) First District were dispatched to investigate a shooting at the intersection of 3rd and F Streets, Northwest, Washington D.C. Upon the officers arriving at the scene, the officers observed Decedent-1 and Decedent-2 suffering from gunshot wounds.
The affidavit identifies Decedent-1 as Sarah Milgrim and Decedent-2 as Yaron Lischinsky.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on May 23 that the United States will impose a 50 percent tariff on the European Union soon.
“The European Union, which was formed for the primary purpose of taking advantage of the United States on TRADE, has been very difficult to deal with,” Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social.
He added later that “our discussions with them are going nowhere” and that a 50 percent tariff is planned to begin on June 1.
