Posting FYI
« on: June 08, 2022, 02:03:02 AM »
I was sent this copy/paste..I won't say from whom, because the last time I pasted an informative article , much abuse was heaped upon the article & sender by somebody here.
   So...I'm sending this just FYI..take it or leave it, but don't waste your time,  trying to "kill the messenger"..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Pay attention,  please. Do you know what DEF fluid is? It's Diesel Exhaust Fluid. Every Diesel truck that has been made since 2010 is required to use it. It's a product made of 67% Urea fertilizer and 33% distilled water. Every diesel truck you see driving down the road today has to have this product to drive. The engines won't start without it. There are regulators inside the engine that mix DEF with the Diesel to reduce Diesel emissions. That's the purpose of DEF.
Right now, Russia is the largest exporter of Urea by a wide margin. Qatar is second. Egypt and China are Tied for 3rd. Both Russia and China have decided to no longer export Urea. On top of that, India is the largest manufacturer of Urea in the world even though they consume most of what they make. What little they would export..........they no longer do. They are now stopping the exportation of any and all Urea minus a deal they just cut with Sri Lanka.
What does this mean for you and me? Well, first, the United States imports most of it's Urea fertilizer. We are the third largest importer in the entire world. We depend on other countries to eat, drive and ship our products.
Secondly... Flying J is the largest Service provider for Truckers around the Unites States. I'm sure you've seen their massive gas stations when traveling around the country. Flying J gets 70% of their DEF fluid from shipments via Union Pacific railroad. UP has single user access to the Fertilizer plants that Urea/DEF fluid comes from. No other rail provider has access to these distribution points. This means Flying J can't just go around Union Pacific. Union Pacific is in charge....for a reason I'm gonna mention in a few paragraphs.
Flying J provides 30% of all DEF consumed in the United States. UP has told Flying J to reduce their shipments by a whopping 50%. And if they do not comply then they will be completely embargoed. That would in effect bankrupt FJ. This means that 15% of all DEF consumed by truckers in the US is no longer available at the largest travel service center for the entire trucking industry.
Rome rotted from the inside out. It was easily invaded because it was occupied with internal problems. It appears we have discovered the Trigger. DEF fluid. If this holds up, DEF shortages will be the catalyst that causes food shortages in the coming months. Not only is there a shortage of fertilizer to grow crops in drought-stricken states (See Kansas' drop in wheat production for 2022)....but....now it looks like, unless the Federal Government intervenes via the Defense Production Act, ...which I am no longer confident they will....there is gonna be an absolute massive shortage of trucking in the coming months.
There simply isn't going to be DEF fluid sufficient to keep the engines running and moving. Home Depot is now limiting the amount of DEF you can buy in their stores.
I would think long and hard about the decisions you are making right now. Where you live. What you spend money on. How you prepare. This is so real that the CEO of Flying J, Shameek Konar was summoned to a Surface Transportation Board hearing to give them all this info.
From what I'm reading....Blackrock is the majority shareholder of Union Pacific railroad. How is that important? Americas biggest fertilizer producer is CF Industries. Their largest shareholder is Blackrock. Blackrock controls the fertilizer industry in the U.S.. Union Pacific has exclusive rights to distribution points of fertilizer. Urea is fertilizer. Flying J needs Urea/DEF. Blackrock is controlling everything.
The Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute is Tom Donilon, President Obama’s former National Security Advisor. Tom Donilon’s brother, Mike Donilon is a Senior Advisor to Joe Biden. Tom Donilon’s wife, Catherine Russell, is the White House Personnel Director. Tom Donilon’s daughter, Sarah Donilon, who graduated college in 2019, now works on the White House National Security Council.
It appears Blackrock is spearheading the dismantling of the US system on behalf of the Globalists. And the first domino they are pushing over is the energy sector. They are using DEF to get the party started.  This is one sector of the biggest downfalls in political repercussions this country has ever faced…😳😔

DEF is about to become hard to get. They say. The unintended consequences is visible everywhere.

Upside, diesel engines can be reprogrammed to run without DEF fluid, however it voids the warranty on new trucks.

  That new system costs my neighbor about $15,000 on each of his new Mack trucks. That includes $5,000 in modifications to the exhaust system alone.
  I am told that now the exhaust from the trucks coming out, is cleaner than the air was when it went in..

So, what do you think of Biden and the Globalist agenda now?
.

   Same as the rest of the globalists and democrats plan has always  been...to destroy the USA !

  They are succeeding, in any case..  In the news today, Biden wants to increase the ethanol content in gasoline at the pump.  Of coyrse, that will take a lot more corn to produce.

  OK..so it uses a lot more corn, what does that mean?  It means the demonrats  already have us in short food supply..and we are supposed to dedicate a great deal more corn to ethanol.

  Next problem..with the increased prices of fertilizer and the scarcity of it, due to Russia being one of the major producers of fertilizer..our yield is estimted to be down by 20% this season...

    This could have been a non-issue, if Biden had simply abandoned his crippling moves on our petroleum industry,  Putin was empowered by his sudden petro-wealth, gas would still be  about $2.34 instead of $5.00, diesel would be about $3 and we would be thriving..but their SS wouldn't be weilding so much power.

Gas was about 1.60 here before the traitors took over and are still unelected in office with no representation of Americans... I could go on.

Gotta love it.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gotta take exception to that last sentence.  My F350 diesel, manfactured in 2003, does not use DEF as that article implies.  After 2010 DEF became required.  Earlier models, still driving, are not manufactured for DEF use.


What is a "regulator" and how does the engine "know" whether it is injecting Cow pee rather than just plain water?  Can I pee in the DEF tank, add 2/3 more with distilled water, and make it myself?  Isn't DEF just a climate change "conspiracy" to find a payback and use for abundant cow pee? 

Cow pee squirted into the hot exhaust manifold eliminates Diesel exhaust emissions?  BWAHAHAhahahaha..........Coal Burners Rule!

    I think the article failed to mention diesel trucks of a certain weight class.  I believe all trucks large enough to be tandems or 18 wheelers, are required to have that mandatoery.

  Certainly my neighbor Chuck, has a fleet of Mack trucks..tandems, triples and 18 wheelers.  He is a practical man, and  would not buy such if he was not forced to.

  There was a market going for "sliders"..that being older trucks completely factory rebuilt as they were when built before the restrictions.  ..But the feds soon put a stop to that !
