Trump lifts Russian oil sanctions amid Iran's Hormuz blockade
To curb oil price spikes, the Trump administration decided to temporarily allow the sale of sanctioned Russian oil until the 11th of next month. Trump had previously emphasized, “Lowering Russian oil prices is key to ending the Ukraine war,” but the Hormuz blockade has instead made Russia the biggest beneficiary of the Iran conflict due to surging demand for its oil. The White House is also considering temporarily exempting foreign vessels from the Jones Act, which requires U.S.-built ships for domestic port-to-port transport. Enacted in 1920, the law mandates the use of American vessels for transporting goods between U.S. ports.

But just two days ago he said “The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.” So by lowering the price of oil, Trump doesn't want The United States to make a lot of money, or he is just constantly lying and thus contradicting himself.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
