And I understand why Russia isn't kicked out of all SWIFT but there has to be other ways than continuing to buy 500k barrels of oil from Russia, currently? At least that is what I read. This is complicated but it's very clear Putin has committed crimes against humanity. Hopefully he will be help accountable some day.
.
500K barrels a day. And that's just about 7% of all oil imports.
Our domestic production is about 11.28 million a day.

But we export more than we import.

The stuff we get from Russia is used to serve some more remote areas and to balance off supply at refineries to keep them at capacity.

Hi Steve.......is this still true, or is it a number from a couple years ago when gas was sub $2 a gallon? I thought a large amount of domestic oil production has pretty much been stalled in the past year. No?

Gas was sub $2 a gallon because the pandemic hit, travel stopped...and with that, demand fell off quickly.

Oil companies had to stockpile it and had nowhere to put it, which is why oil was selling for less then $0 a barrel for awhile there.

They won't make that mistake again, anytime in the near future.

There was a dip in April 2020, but it came back pretty quickly.

5 minutes in to that video and just WTF? A nutcase using the posturing of an even less coherent nutcase to support something that isn't at all clear...

Overall reaction?

Who? ranting about who?

Oh, a startup "news" organization that can't or won't even supply computers to their work from home employees....
Did they check if she knows either Russian or Ukranian? If not, how would she know what the banner said. And if she did what are the chances she knows some obscure historical groups slogans?

The weekly world news is a more credible source.

Yeah, keep believing that and believe you're being informed.
