Russia Is Helping Iran Target American Troops/Warships/Aircraft/The Works.
Russia Joins the War Amid Trump Panic -The White House Is Panicking About Gas Prices
White House scrambling to offset high has prices, Trump administration defies Supreme Court order to pay back tariff refunds, Murdochs paper celebrates Trumps stupidity
AP 8 MAR 2026
Publicly, the Trump administration insists the presidents got a plan to deal with skyrocketing gas prices.
WORN OUT DANGEROUS OLD FREAK
But privately? According to two energy industry executives familiar with internal conversations, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles is telling advisers to look under every rock for ways to bring gas prices down.
The attack on Iran sent crude oil up by more than ten dollars a barrel. The average price at the pump has jumped more than 25 cents in a week, and its now sitting higher than it was on Bidens last day in office. Thats a number the Trump team really doesnt want to be talking about.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright and others are reportedly getting screamed at to find some good news. Officials who would normally be pushing for lower oil prices were apparently told to stay quiet. As one executive put it The faction of the White House that would care about eighty to ninety dollar oil was being silenced.
Trumps new war in the Middle East has now roped in a powerful adversary. Gas prices are spiking while the White House panics behind closed doors. The government is refusing to pay back money Americans are owed from tariffs. And even Rupert Murdochs newspaper is dancing
Russia Is Helping Iran Target America
This story is genuinely alarming, and its not getting nearly enough attention.
According to reporting from The Washington Post, Russia has been passing Iran the locations of U.S. military assets since this war started. Warships. Aircraft. The works.
So while Pete Hegseth was standing at a podium this week saying Russia and China are not really a factor, American intelligence officials were privately telling reporters the opposite.
The Kremlins spokesman declined to comment. Which, honestly, tells you everything.
Now, why does this matter Iran doesnt have great satellite capabilities. Russia does. Russias spent years refining its targeting intelligence in Ukraine. And what were seeing, according to analysts, is that Iranian strikes have been unusually precise.
Theyve been hitting things that require a level of targeting accuracy Iran didnt previously demonstrate. Experts are saying the quality of Irans strikes appears to have improved even compared to the 12 day conflict with Israel last summer.
Six American troops have already been killed. The Pentagon is reportedly burning through precision arms and air defense interceptors at a worrying pace.

And the dark irony here Iran spent years helping Russia overwhelm Ukrainian air defenses with cheap one way drones. Now Russias returning the favor.
