We have an agreement, and it's 60 days have to make a deal. Otherwise, we will do things that won't make them happy, but I don't think it's going to get to that. I think it's going to be very good." The tentative agreement has reopened the Strait of Hormuz, and it's designed to give
“both sides more time to work through key differences, including Iran's nuclear program.”

The warehouse in the city of social circle was slated to detain as many as 10,000 people tripling the city's population. The city said it's water in sewer infrastructure couldn't support that.
Now the Georgia District Republican Congressman tells the city the plan for their warehouse is dead.
