US Diesel Hits Record $6.05 Per Gallon, Up 60% Year-on-Year
⛽ DOMESTIC — A 60% pump shock six months in, and no supply fix on the horizon. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: $6.05 diesel reprices everything downstream: trucking, food, manufacturing, heating. Unlike Brent abstractions, pump records land in midterm ads. With Hormuz at seven transits, E/W pipeline down, and Bab el-Mandeb encircled, no relief mechanism exists. Trump's "no regrets" framing now competes directly with $6 diesel at every gas station in swing states.
