Mac On Trump's Destruction Of NATO, Gulf States, Israel & U.S. Empire | Wauck
Trump had nothing to offer last night except tired old Netanyahu lies. The reactions today reflect that the world is finally coming to understand that that has been the reality all along.

Oil prices surged following Trump’s pledge to take more aggressive action against Iran. High energy prices are fuelling worries about an inflation spiral which could prompt the Fed to adopt a more hawkish stance.
