Not sure how the oil co's will take this. The oil co's did not like the 4 years of Trump. Trump has said so multiple times. 'The oil co's hated me when I was President" was his exact words.
Trump opened up the oil free market too much and the oil co's burned through a trillion dollars of cash reserves. 2.00 per gallon gas was great for the consumer but not so much for the oil co's. Gas will never be below $3 ever again on a national average even of Trump is reelected. Articles are now just coming out the oil co's limited refinery production to keep the price of gas per gallon high since 2021 to build back their cash reserves even though record oil production.
The Dow threated to delist Exxon because they had burned through their cash reserves and their financials were bringing down the Dow. This is not the only reason they was delisted but it was a factor. Wall Street demanded oil co's make more profits
Exxon has since been removed from the Dow in 2020
It somehow never seemed to occur to Krystal Ball of "Breaking Points" that all the Lawfare cases against President Donald Trump are collapsing for the very simple reason is that he is INNOCENT of all the absurd charges that the politically weaponized DOJ have thrown at him via the federal cases or the state cases which are also controlled by the DOJ minions. Instead Krystal claims the Lawfare cases have collapsed not because they are pathetically weak and absurd but because Donald Trump is the "luckiest man on the planet." Even more startling was the reaction of her co-host, Sagaar Enjeti, who although he proclaimed himself to be an atheist now says that Trump must have been "touched by the hand of God." HALLELUJAH!

Actual details: Teens kicked out of elite Catholic school for ‘blackface’ awarded $1M by jury after proving it was just acne mask New York Post
Two teens kicked out of their elite California Catholic school while falsely accused of wearing blackface have been jointly awarded more than $1 million after proving it was just a green acne face mask.
The then-students at Saint Francis High School in Mountain View were just 14 when they took a photo during a sleepover in 2017 of them wearing the treatment in solidarity with a friend suffering from severe acne, their lawsuit said.
The treatment, bought by one of the boys’ mom, was light green when applied and turned dark green once dry.
...
Representatives for the school said they “respectfully disagree” with the jury’s decision and are “exploring legal options,” including an appeal.

A lawyer for President Donald Trump announced Thursday afternoon that prosecutors no longer plan to bring Playboy model Karen McDougal to testify at his New York criminal hush money trial after two days of testimony from porn star Stormy Daniels.
Trump lawyer Todd Blanche said in court that “we have been informed the People no longer intend to call Karen McDougal as a witness,” according to reports from the trial. It is not immediately clear why prosecutors with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office decided not to bring McDougal to the witness stand.
