Key takeaways

  • Just as I promised, Oil Prices are plummeting FAST, and Gas Prices at the pump are dropping too, but not as fast as they should be, Trump wrote on Truth Social.
  • He claimed the so-called Freedom Fuel Network is expected to help lower gas prices at 25 stations in the Philadelphia area, helping drivers to hit the road for the holiday as gas prices fluctuate amid the Iran war.
  • This Retailer is taking the lead, and others should follow, he wrote.

Why this matters: political developments that affect policy direction and public trust.

Just as I promised, Oil Prices are plummeting FAST, and Gas Prices at the pump are dropping too, but not as fast as they should be, Trump wrote on Truth Social. As we approach America s 250th Birthday, I am pleased to announce that a VERY smart Retailer, located throughout the Northeast, is stepping up, and wishing the People of Philadelphia a Happy Birthday!

He claimed the so-called Freedom Fuel Network is expected to help lower gas prices at 25 stations in the Philadelphia area, helping drivers to hit the road for the holiday as gas prices fluctuate amid the Iran war.

This Retailer is taking the lead, and others should follow, he wrote. They are doing this because they love the U.S.A. We are proud to celebrate America s 250th Birthday in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Birthplace of our very special, one-of-a-kind Declaration of Independence, and where I won BIG in the Presidential Election!
