In Jan 2026, before this war of Dotard and Netanyahu choice started, the average US regular gasoline price was $2.81/gal and the average US diesel price was $3.52/gal.

Specious comparisons will be made, such as to peak prices under Biden (hello Dotardly-mismanaged-pandemic sequelae) and so forth. Don't put up with that crap. The prices right before this unnecessary and avoidable war are clearly documented. When someone tries to gaslight you, call them on it and rub the truth in their faces.
