The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Biden had allowed the Russkies to see oil to the EU by giving their banks exceptions.

No more. Trump ended that today:

BREAKING: Trump had cut off all Russian oil sales to EU!

Treasury has ended the Biden exemption that allowed sanctioned Russian banks to process European payments for oil sales. Now no one in Europe can purchase Russian oil


The document you are quoting was written Jan 10,2025 and the US government allowed 2 months to close out all transactions. Do you recommend a different length of time to close out transactions?

Anyway you are grasping at straws to say this was a Trump action. Surely there is something you can point to that Trump has done well without resorting to fabrications.
