India hints it will keep buying Russian oil

India has indicated it will defy threats made by US President Donald Trump and continue buying Russian oil. The world's third-largest crude importer - after China and the US - cashed in on cheap Russian oil when its price plummeted after Vladimir Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Historically, it had bought most of its crude from countries in the Middle East. But this changed after the invasion in February 2022, when western countries slapped sanctions on Russia in a bid to choke off money fuelling Moscow's war chest. It prompted the recent energy crisis that saw household bills in the UK soar. On Friday, the Indian foreign ministry said its relationship with Russia was "steady and time-tested", and warned against viewing it through the lens of another country. Addressing a weekly meeting, spokesman Randhir Jaiswal said India's general position on procuring energy was guided by supply in the markets and prevailing global circumstances. The sentiment was echoed by two further government sources cited by the Reuters news agency. "These are long-term oil contracts," one of the sources said. "It is not so simple to just stop buying overnight." India is highly dependent on oil imports, which supply 87% of its needs, according to the International Energy Agency. The comments follow a threat made by President Trump to impose a 25% tariff on goods from India, as well as an additional import tax, because of New Delhi's purchases of Russian oil. The US president made ending the war in Ukraine a top priority - pledging to do so within his first 24 hours in office. But recently Mr Trump - who has repeatedly praised the Mr Putin over the years - has started to sour on the Russian leader for failing to agree to a ceasefire in Ukraine. He called it "disappointing" and also threatened new economic sanctions on Russia if progress is not made. Mr Trump also this week said he had ordered two US nuclear submarines to be positioned in the "appropriate regions" in a row with former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev. The pressure on India comes after it upped it Russian crude purchases from 68,000 barrels per day in January 2022 to 1.12 million barrels per day by June that year. Supplies rose as high as nearly 40% of India's imports at one point, making Russia the largest supplier of crude to New Delhi, according to the Press Trust of India, citing data from analytics firm Kpler. Home to 1.3 billion people, India is expected to become an even bigger oil consumer over the remainder of the decade, fuelled by spectacular growth in its economy, as well as rising population and demographics. Demand has been rising fastest for petrol, with rising household incomes sparking a boom in motorcycle and car ownership.

Mixed results for 'Rage Against the Regime' day of action

Aug. 2 (UPI) -- The same organization behind prior protests against the Trump administration reported mixed results for Saturday's "Rage Against the Regime" protests across the country. The protests are part of the ninth "national day of action" event coordinated so far this year by the 50501 Movement, which opposes President Donald Trump and his administration's policies. Organizers accuse the Trump administration of "heralding ... American neo-fascism," building "concentration camps" and funding "genocide." They also accuse Trump of "weaponization of ICE against our communities, construction of concentration camps, covering up the Epstein files, attacks on transgender rights and ... dismantling of Medicaid, SNAP, USAID, the Department of Education, NOAA and the National Weather Service." The protests are intended to be peaceful, but at least one local organizer changed the name to "Rise Against the Regime" to emphasize its peaceful intent for the protest in San Angelo, Texas. Several posts on the 50501 Movements' Facebook page expressed disappointment over low turnout at many of the protests, while others said hundreds showed up. The organization says "50501" refers to 50 protests in 50 states in one day and calls the Trump administration a "threat" to democracy and human rights, The Hill reported. About 350 Rage Against the Regime protests were scheduled in communities across the nation. The name of Saturday's collective protests references the Los Angeles rock band Rage Against the Machine. Other nationwide protests organized by the 50501 Movement include the "No Kings Day" protest held on June 14 and the "Good Trouble Lives On" protest held on the anniversary of former Rep. John Lewis' death on July 17.

Trump rails against Democrats as Senate takes up his nominees

President Trump blasted Democrats again for delaying the process of getting his nominees confirmed by the upper chamber and praised Senate Republicans for staying in Washington and working on getting the president's picks approved. 'Very proud of our great Republican Senators for fighting, over the Weekend and far beyond, if necessary, in order to get my great Appointments approved, and on their way to helping us MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN,' Trump wrote in a Saturday post on Truth Social. The president then hammered Senate Democrats, arguing they are doing 'everything possible to DELAY these wonderful and talented people from being' confirmed. 'If George Washington or Abraham Lincoln were up for approval, the Dems would delay, as long as possible, then vote them out. The Democrats want our Country to fail, because they have failed,' the president said, thanking Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and 'our Republican Warriors in the Senate. Fight and WIN. I am with you all the way!!!' Thune told reporters on Thursday that recess appointments, to help tackle the backlog of over 160 nominees, mostly for lower-level positions, are 'on the table.' 'I think everything is on the table,' Thune said, adding that changes to rules would 'make more sense.' 'Fixing the rules, not just for now, but for the long term, would be a better solution for it. But at this point right now, I wouldn't say we're taking any options off the table,' the South Dakota Republican said. GOP senators have expressed openness to forging an agreement with Democrats to help confirm a tranche of Trump's nominees, but they are open to pivoting to other options if the deal does not go through. 'If we can't then we will have to resort to other options and we've got a lot of support for doing that,' Thune said in a Saturday interview with Politico. Republicans would need virtually all of their conference to vote for changing the rules. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has backed the party's approach to the president's nominees, saying Saturday that 'historically bad nominees deserve historic levels of scrutiny.' 'We have never seen nominees as flawed, as compromised, as unqualified as Trump's,' Schumer said in a post on social media platform X. 'And they know that.' Thune and Schumer's offices have been in contact this week and the New York senator had sent a counterproposal on Friday, according to Politico.
