With all respect to rono, I'm not sure how the navy would come into this since Turkey has blocked the Bosporus Strait to warships, preventing access to the Black Sea. Ukraine has no other maritime access.
Come on, @Crash- nobody does anything for nothing in the financial world. Nothing new here... it's a given. Of course friction fees/expenses/charges are built in somehow. Would you perform a service for a financial institution on an ongoing basis fo…
From sources other than the above link it appears that his general financial approach is generally similar to the one recently introduced by Jeremy Hunt, which replaced the disastrous Liz Truss version.
"There is no troll like than a liberal in self denial about putting a man in power who has obviously has cognitive decline"
He has quite a way to go to catch up with Ronnie.
Math is surely not my strong point, but I have no idea regarding the above formula.

Yes, I believe that msf's comments are accurate. The tanker trucks that supply the ARCO station are unbranded, so who knows the source. Now that I think about it, I don't think that I've ever seen a gasoline tanker truck branded either ARCO or BP on…

"The documents show the Secret Service received at least 40 waivers to allow it to spend more than the government rate at Trump properties."
You maybe think that Trumpsters were instrumental in issuing those waivers??
"spellcheck complains"... well, tell it to mind it's own business: "Ignore" or "add to dictionary". My spellcheck now has lots of words that it didn't like. Who's the boss here, anyway? :)
We don't use smartphones or tablets. I maintain a "fleet" of five "late 2014" Mac Minis running El Capitan OS 10.11.6. For browser we use Firefox v78.15, with added extensions for Adblock and "Privacy Badger", which blocks almost all trackers. All o…
