But in a phone interview with a Fox News correspondent, Trump said the U.S. would bomb the expletive out of Oman if they get in the way.
He was asked about it later in the Oval Office. "When you say you're out of patience with Oman, as for keeping your eye out, I don't think did be very well, but we handle them very soon."

the families want to take their case to the nation's highest court." More than two dozen Texas families want the U.S. Supreme Court to stop the state from posting a Protestant version of the Ten Commandments in every public classroom. Families of different faiths and some who don't practice any faith, say they have the right to decide what role religion plays in their lives, not politicians.
Sophia Howard, attorney with the ACLU of Texas, said posting the Ten Commandments violates the separation of church and state. "All of schools are not Sunday schools, and we're hoping that the Supreme Court will affirm this." The request by the families and ACLU of Texas was filed Monday.
