U.S. Gas Prices Hit Lowest Point Since 2022

By May 2023, regular gasoline was being sold at $ 2.89 per gallon, the lowest since March 2023, which in turn has put a smile on the faces of drivers across the US. The primary contributor towards this is an increase in domestic oil production and a decline in global demand that enables a 15 % reduction in prices in the previous quarter. This energy was reported by the Information Administration (EIA). Midwest and Gulf Coast States are experiencing prices less than $ 2.70, while the coastal areas are slightly higher than $ 3.10. This price drop comes when the record memorial day journey marked by analysts, but some analysts are still cautious due to the possible supply forecast cuts that can be brought by geopolitical stress.   Retail fuel sellers are using increased traffic in pumps and to serve the concessional loyalty programs of advertisement, which is better management of the operational expenses of the rented car company.

The Immunity Crucible: How the Supreme Court’s Redefinition of Presidential Power Threatens the Foundations of American Democracy

  The Unthinkable Becomes Precedent In a 6-3 decision that reshaped two centuries of constitutional understanding, the Supreme Court ruled in  Trump v. United States  (2024) that former presidents enjoy  absolute immunity  for actions within their "core constitutional powers" and  presumptive immunity  for all other official acts  9 11 . This watershed moment—released just months before the 2024 election—effectively creates a legal force field around presidential conduct, declaring entire categories of potential criminality beyond judicial reach. "Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup? Immune. Takes a bribe for a pardon? Immune." — Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s dissent,  Trump v. United States   5 9 Deconstructing the Ruling’s Three-Tiered Framework The majority opinion by Chief Justice John Roberts establishes a radical hierarchy of presidential protection: Immunity Tier Scope of P...
