President Trump Wednesday night on truth-social, criticized Israel for its Wednesday attack on Iran's South Par natural gas field.
“In all caps, he wrote no more attacks will be made by Israel, and he said he did not want”
this level of violence and destruction. But Trump said the U.S. would attack the facility of Iran attacked Qatar again as Tehran did in retaliation for the initial Israeli attack. A few hours later, Qatar said the natural gas facility sustained substantial damage
in a second, or running in missile attack.
Meanwhile, the nation's two top-style spy officials, D.C.I.A. director John Radcliffe, and director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, Ron Capital Hill Wednesday, and P.R. National Security correspondent Greg Myri has more. As the top spy chiefs, Radcliffe and Gabbard don't often speak publicly, and they haven't said much of anything about the Iran war.
But today, Democratic senators got to press the, specifically, whether they warned President Trump that Iran was likely to choke off the flow of oil from the trade-of-form news. Both Radcliffe and Gabbard were pretty evasive. Gabbard said the intelligence community long believed that closing the straight was a possibility. Radcliffe declined to say whether he'd made this point in the days just before the war.
The White House has decided to temporarily roll back a law that restricts foreign ships from
“transporting goods within the U.S. and R.R.'s Elena Weiss has more.”
The White House said that the '60s had Jones Act's waiver is meant to mitigate oil market
disruptions caused by the war with Iran.
Since the conflict began, energy prices have skyrocketed. Americans today are paying some 92 cents more a gallon for a regular at the pump than this time last month. Raving the law would allow foreign shipping vessels to travel on U.S. waters, without the requirement that the ship's V. U.S. owned and crude.
But experts say that the temporary roll pack will likely do little to lower gas prices. Because oil prices are set independently of transportation costs, waving the Jones Act would simply allow for additional ships to carry supplies. Some House lawmakers are arguing against the longstanding Supreme Court ruling. The White House's entry on the way to the U.S. is a pre-war decision to be a member of the
