She probably drives an EV and hates ICE vehicles

Seriously, what is she doing and is that really water? Does she work at the station? What the hell is going on here?

I remember a time when diesel fuel was cheaper than regular gas

For gas rates by state for all types of fuel:

Regular Mid-Grade Premium Diesel E85
Current Avg. $4.536 $5.015 $5.388 $5.674 $3.669
Yesterday Avg. $4.483 $4.967 $5.341 $5.659 $3.627
Week Ago Avg. $4.229 $4.722 $5.093 $5.464 $3.356
Month Ago Avg. $4.119 $4.624 $4.995 $5.618 $3.249
Year Ago Avg. $3.158 $3.639 $3.994 $3.540 $2.581

Last year, this time diesel fuel national average was $3.54 per gallon.

Today, it's $5.67 per gallon.

ATTENTION: This post is not a dig at Trump. The chart you're looking at was taken from https://gasprices.aaa.com/oil-prices-spike-national-average-up-nearly-30-cents-in-one-week/

Facts are we have hit these levels before:

>In June 2022, a new average monthly regular gasoline price record of $6.16 was set for the Los Angeles region. It was the fourth month in a row in which a monthly record was set. During that month, weekly average prices for a gallon of regular gasoline reached $6.23. Although the Los Angeles Region ended the last month of 2022 with an average gasoline price lower than a year prior, its 2022 annual average price was the highest on record for the region. So far through April 2026, the first third of the year shows an average gasoline price of $4.83, creeping up on the record 2022 average price.

Joe Biden in 2022 beat Bush's 2008 record for gas prices according to the USA Today article:

>“Americans have never seen gasoline prices this high, nor have we seen the pace of increases so fast and furious. That combination makes this situation all the more remarkable and intense, with crippling sanctions on Russia curbing their flow of oil, leading to the massive spike in the price of all fuels: gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and more," Patrick De Haan, head of GasBuddy said in a statement Monday.
