You know what the free market really loves? Being undercut by government competition, especially concerning petroleum products.
:mosaddegh: :trump: 
there will probably be like 2 of them and they'll be sold out half the time and not really competing
And people will drive 2 hours to get cheaper fuel maybe
Freedom isn't free,
It cost $3.47 a gallon
And it's only available at 20 locations in Pennsylvania and 5 locations in New Jersey.

In January 2026, the average price for regular motor gasoline was $2.81 per gallon
I love to pay a 66 cent freedom tax for the 2-3 Week War that's now in its 5th month. Hopefully every business in the world shops there so the rest of the consumer inflation doesn't make the dollar worthless.
you Just Know he uses 4747 as his phone passcode
Actually would be 4545 because 47 would be admitting Biden was the 46th president of the United States
Didn't he start putting 45-47 on his shitty merch? So maybe that
Goddamn this is so stupid.
pull up to the gas station, looking for “the cheapest fuel in town”
Whoa. Is that Donald trump selling gas? Guess they don’t call him donny deals for nothing
“Mr President, how much per gallon today?”
“Lowest prices in town. No one does it better. Today it’s… just under $3.50”
Wait a minute. You just realized it’s not actually don but a 300 foot lizard from the Paleozoic era. Goddamn Loch Ness monster - I’m not giving you $3.50!!!
Sorry for doing a South Park bit- my synapses are only linked so much, and thinking of the Loch Ness monster whenever I see $3.50 is one of those
you must release the things that weigh you down
"President Trump is leading the charge to lower gas prices this summer — putting more money in your pocket," the White House added in the post.
company behind the Freedom Fuel Network is private
the Trump administration is not involved with the company and is not subsidizing the gas stations
hmmmmmm
I'm only interested if I can get it with a side of Freedom Fries™.
Yep, I'm sure these are absolutely really real locations. Look at the M.C. Escher shit going on here.
$$$ looks pretty expensive
The video posted by the White House account looked surreal. It has a lot of jump cuts. The audio feels like the people are reading a script. There is a lack of emotion.

However, the CBS article has 25 addresses listed. Surely someone could visit to the addresses if they were fake? I pulled up some of the addresses on street view and it shows various gas station businesses. Possibly these locations were purchased and converted.
Good idea to streetview them. I have way too much time on my hands and my brain sucks, so I looked up all of them.
Firstly, that second picture I posted is probably intended to represent the location in the video.
Which is indeed a real location according to street view (1400 Dreshertown Rd), formerly a Sunoco.
Which kind of begs the question why they didn't just use a real photo of the site since it does apparently exist. But whatever. In the process I found something much more interesting.
Of the 25 sites listed on the website, eight are (or were, more on that later) Sunoco. Six are Gas 'n' Go, three United (including one defunct), three Karco, a Gulf, a Shell, a Valero, a Phillips 66, and one defunct unknown that literally just says "Gas" on it. The Sunoco sites are interesting, because they're the only ones that consistently showed up on Street View looking like they were undergoing rebranding in 2025. Six of the eight had "upgrading image" signs and the livery stripped back to plain blue, including the Dreshertown Rd site. The remaining two didn't have photos after 2023. This leads me to believe that Sunoco were the only ones with advance knowledge of the change.
So my thinking is that this is actually just the white house shilling for a Sunoco acquisition and rebrand.
Street view is this up to date?
In some places, yes. Depends on the last time they surveyed the area. In browser it shows the date of the photo in the bottom right corner.
