  1. These extreme sanctions on Iran has them backed into a corner. Do they capitulate or disrupt the world oil supply ?
  2. The damage Iran could do to the Saudi oil supply and shut down the Strait of Hormuz could devastate the world economy. They need to negotiate not escalate .
  3. Saudi Arabia oil facility attack launched from Iranian soil, US officials say Cruise missiles and drones used in the weekend assault on Saudi Arabia's oil installations were launched from Iranian soil, U.S. officials told Fox News on Monday. https://www.foxnews.com/world/saudi-arabia-oil-attack-came-from-iranian-soil-us-officials
  4. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi drone attack not launched from Iraqi territory. Kuwait is investigating accounts that a drone intruded into its airspace and flew over the royal palace on the same day the Saudi oil facilities were targeted. Kuwait's Al-Rai newspaper said at dawn on Saturday, an unmanned drone about the size of a small car descended to a height of about 250 metres (820 feet) over the palace, before turning on its lights and flying away. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/09/saudi-oil-attacks-latest-updates-190916102800973.html That sounds way too sophisticated for Houthi rebels
  5. Lamar Jackson is a surprise to me , good for him.
  6. Trump: US 'locked and loaded depending on verification' of attack on Saudi oil field "Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!" Trump said. https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/15/politics/trump-us-saudi-arabia-attack-iran-iraq/index.html

  11. If they are close he won't testify against AB
  12. For reports of drones to do such massive damage , now reports of cruise missiles , yikes . Iran crossed the line this time.

  18. Who is spending ? All of Congress first 2 years ( R ) and WH all. The US deficit topped $1 trillion. The year's not even over yet Washington (CNN Business)The US budget deficit widened to $1.067 trillion for the first 11 months of the fiscal year, an increase of 19% over this time last year, the Treasury Department reported Thursday. The current shortfall exceeds the full-year deficit for fiscal 2018, which was $898 billion. President Donald Trump, who promised during the 2016 campaign to eliminate the federal debt, has instead overseen a dramatic increase in deficits. https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/12/business/us-federal-deficit-august/index.html Did Trump ever veto a budget?

  23. “If at any time prior to the end of the 2019 League Year, Player: … takes any action that materially undermines the public’s respect for, or is materially critical of, the Club, Player’s teammates or the Club’s ownership, coaches, management, operations or policies then, upon election of the Club, the guarantees set forth in this section 27 will be null and void, whether or not any such guarantee otherwise had been earned in accordance with the terms thereof.” If the Patriots were to invoke that clause as having been violated by this week’s lawsuit, it’s believed the team could waive Brown with no penalties. Whether or not that is a consideration might ultimately hinge on the information that becomes available in the next few days —whether coming from Brown, his accuser or the talks between the NFL and both of those parties. https://sports.yahoo.com/as-patriots-scramble-for-info-nfl-looks-to-move-quickly-on-antonio-brown-probe-235416302.html
