Well, it kinda is and it kinda isn't.   I mean, cars don't RUN on oil.  They're just lubricated by it.

 

Oil lamps.... now THAT'S a camel of a different color altogether!

The United States produced a record amount of energy from various sources in 2018, reaching 96 quadrillion British thermal units (quads), an 8% increase from 2017. This increase in production outpaced the 4% increase in U.S. energy consumption, which also reached a record high of 101 quads. At the same time, U.S. energy exports increased 18% to a record high of 21 quads in 2018, reducing net energy imports into the United States to a 54-year low of 4 quads, or less than 4% of U.S. energy consumption. In 2018, crude oil and natural gas accounted for 57% of all U.S. energy production, with crude oil production seeing an increase of 17% and natural gas an increase of 12% from 2017. Natural gas plant liquids production also increased by 14%. Energy production from renewable energy increased 4% from 2017, mostly because of growth in solar (22%), wind (8%), and biomass energy (2%). Nuclear electric power production remained virtually unchanged in 2018. Coal was the only energy production source to decrease in 2018, falling 2% from 2017 levels.

Technically they are potential energy. Maybe that is what  he meant

You literally just said "that's oil, not energy".

I meant that becoming a net exporter of oil did not necessarily mean the country was a net exporter of energy.

I'm not claiming anything. Just read the article and did the math.  Pretty straightforward. 

 

The article didn't mention anything about the 33,000, probably due to the loss in court.  

And this is your proof that:

 

"58,000 non-citizens voted in Texas, with 95,000 non-citizens registered to vote"

 

?

Here's another Whopper

 

"When I took over our military, we did not have ammunition,” Trump said. “I was told by a top general, maybe the top of them all, ‘Sir, I’m sorry sir, we don’t have ammunition.’ I said, I will never let that happen to another president.”

Well to be honest with you the DOD has a huge budget right now. Where it is going who knows because as a DA civilian we don't have money for training to be more technically savvy in our high tech jobs

The illegal-voter thing in Texas was a premature tally that didn't account for different variables*.  The 95,000 total was jumped on by all sides, revised numbers were presented, and those who had initially broadcast the wrong total got egg on their faces and admitted that they deserved it.  Most of this correction/clarification happened within a matter of days.  Everyone seemed largely satisfied in the end.

 

*one was the number of registrants who signed up to vote at their naturalization ceremonies; would be interesting to learn how states are notified of these numbers or seek to track them

Yeah, that one was a big untruth.

I have to admit I have been away from the internet since Saturday night dealing with move-related-stress-things, but has there been any more reporting on whether the motorcade was fake?

I think the consensus was that since the President visited but didn't play golf, last weekend should be deducted from the 115 Million.

Ah, okay then. So... it's fake news that the motorcade was fake?
