After MAGA Republican President Donald Trump decided to join Israel in attacking the sovereign nation of Iran, gas prices in the United States have jumped, with some parts of the country seeing prices over $4 or even $5 at the pumps.

MS NOW spoke to a man filling up his diesel pickup truck at a gas station in Lantana, Florida. Construction worker Richard Stanley identified himself as a Trump voter, then expressed regret over his choice.


Stanley told MS NOW's Alex Tabet:

"[Trump] was bragging the other day on news, [gas prices] $1.90 or $2.90 somewhere—it's $5.50 a gallon."
"I miss my Uncle Joe [Biden]."
"I was ballin' then, now I couldn't even tell you. I couldn't even show you $5 in my pocket."

Eurasia Group, a global political risk research and consulting firm, expects average gas prices in the United States to reach $4 soon and to hover around that level for some time.

Eurasia Group founder Ian Bremmer told CBS News:

"Americans feel the impact of higher gas prices every week when they fill their car tank. It's something everyone sees and feels that's meaningful and will play through to other prices as well."

Last week, two congressional sources told MS NOW that the war is costing the United States an estimated $1bn a day. A day later, Politico reported that Republicans on Capitol Hill privately fear the Pentagon is spending close to $2bn a day on the war.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told reporters at a Capitol Hill news conference last week that President Trump is “plunging America into another endless conflict in the Middle East” and “spending billions of dollars to bomb Iran.”

“But they can’t find a dime to make it more affordable for the American people to go see a doctor when they need one,” he said. “Can’t find a dime to make it easier for Americans who are working hard to purchase their first home. And they can’t find a dime to lower the grocery bills of the American people.”

But at least eggs are... still not cheaper.

The 'La La Land' Poster Was Just Officially Edited To Fix Ryan Gosling's Bent Hand—And Fans Have Thoughts

If you've spent the last decade unable to unsee Ryan Gosling's oddly bent hand on the La La Land poster, you're not alone. The visual quirk became an enduring talking point among fans. And now, for the film's 10-year anniversary, it's officially been fixed.

The poster for the iconic 2016 musical has been subtly adjusted ahead of its theatrical re-release on August 16 to celebrate its 10th anniversary. While the original artwork shows Gosling's character, Sebastian, with his hand tilted downward in the famous dance pose, the updated version straightens it to mirror Emma Stone's Mia.
