The Air Canada suspension is the second-order
signal the oil-focused coverage is missing.
First-order: tankers, strikes, Brent.
Second-order: aviation fuel, insurance, supply
chain re-routing.
An 18-hour "opening" doesn't restore confidence.
It compounds hesitation across every dependent
market.
I hope I can get there next month. I have tickets on Air Canada to go to Moncton.
NEW YORK (AP) β Air Canada will suspend service to New Yorkβs JFK International airport over the summer as the war in Iran creates jet fuel shortages that have sent prices soaring.

Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent for the Wall Street Journal:
A month ago.
If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.
CASAR: You've met with CEOs, you've met with billionaires. How many have you met with that have lost their health insurance?
RFK Jr: I've met with the advocacy community on virtually everything
C: Have you met with any of the 1.4m who lost their coverage?
K: They're almost all illegal immigrants
Please clap.
The Strait of Hormuz was open before Trump started this war.
So this is not a win.
Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."
Democrats are underreacting to Donald Trumpβs obvious mental decline.
They should be shouting it from the rooftops and on every cable show, just like Republicans did with Joe Biden.
Trump is clearly not well.
"Even though they witnessed a literal miracle, it didn't matter" -- Hegseth offers an anecdote about being in church last Sunday to compare the American media to Pharisees
Over the past week, the president posted an image of himself as Jesus, the vice president challenged the pope on Catholic doctrine, and the secretary of defense quoted the speech of a fictional hit man and presented it as scripture.
DOGGETT: Were you shocked to see that 850 people who were suspended for fraud had been reinstated at all once?
RFK Jr: President Biden ...
DOGGETT: Reclaiming my time. Biden's administration suspended 850 suspected fraudsters. Yours let them go back to work
Donβt. We donβt deserve international tourist dollars. Iβll
Be making my 4th trip to Canada in a 12 month span next month. And Iβll keep doing so. Iβm voting with my wallet as much as I can.
The US and Canada were never enemies. Then Trump made them one.
Tariffs. Threats. MAGA rage aimed north of the border. For what? Nobody really knows.
Most of it is bluster but that doesnβt mean it isnβt doing damage. π¨π¦πΊπΈββββββββββββββββ

Today, more than 80% of the Democratic caucus stood with the American people and voted to block U.S. military aid to Netanyahu and his horrific, illegal wars.
JUST NOW: Bernieβs effort to block military aid to Israel FAILS with 40 votes
@MarshaBlackburn @SenatorHagerty voted to sell more bombs and bulldozers to Israel β along with the rest of the Republicans and 7 Demsβ¦ including @SenSchumer π€
Holy shit. I donβt have words for how corrupt this is. Keep in mind, the Ukraine whistleblower is still anonymous. And Gabbard kept a whistleblower report from Congress about a call between foreign intel agents discussing someone close to Trump and Iran. @andrewbakaj.bsky.social
BLITZER: Dems argue there's a double standard. In 2023, Trump was found liable for sexual abuse
STEFANIK: No. If anything the media is not focused on holding Dems to account
BROWN: How can you say that? We had the reporting about Swalwell
STEFANIK: After he was forced out
B: I did the reporting
The only way to get a sense of how detached from reality and full of shit our president is now is to watch a full interview- unfortunately most people would rather claw their eyes out, understandably.
I just signed a bill to rename Minnesotaβs community solar program after Speaker Melissa Hortman.
Melissa was a true champion of solar and I was proud to sign this in honor of my dear friend.
Parody is protected speechβ¦.
Erica Payne, founder of @patrioticmillionaires.org: "Doing it around the edges is what got us this freak show in the WH sending out memes about him being Jesus & getting in a fight with the Pope in a country that prides itself on the separation of church and state. For heaven's sake! Enough already"
I suspect the Pope sounds "woke" to many Christian conservatives because the US is steeped in prosperity theology, where the point of worship is to deliver health and wealth to believers. Thus, "feed the hungry" and "show mercy for the poor" sounds needlessly political and "woke."
Trump literally tells you not to believe the evidence of your eyes and ears. Too late.
Reporter: Why did you attack Pope Leo?
Trump: I donβt think heβs doing a very good job. He likes crime I guess. We donβt like a pope who says itβs ok to have a nuclear weapon. We donβt want a pope that says crime is ok. I am not a fan of Pope Leo.

I think Trumpβs explanation about the Jesus post might be more insane than the post itself.
And I certainly did not think that was possible before it happened.
