Nothing bad to say about the Saudis, though, huh? Trump’s foreign policy is not only a failure, it’s deeply immoral.

I'm in the fading sunlight of the decade known as "the fifties".  I wanted the young kids to think I was still hip and cool. I failed.

New York (CNN Business)Vladimir Putin knows America's fragile oil industry is built on a mountain of debt. So when Saudi Arabia called for production cuts to mitigate oversupply, Putin decided to pounce.

Russia shocked the world last week by blowing up its shaky alliance with OPEC. Moscow's refusal to join with the cartel is aimed in part at drowning US shale oil companies that rely on higher prices in a sea of cheap crude.
Putin's goal is to wrest market share back from American frackers, whose debt-fueled growth caused Russia to lose its title in 2018 as the world's largest oil producer.
Crude is now so cheap that many US shale companies will be forced to cut production. Bankruptcy fears are already rippling through the oil patch, sending the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas ETF (XOP) to its lowest price on record going back to 2006.
The energy meltdown threatens to cause a repeat of the 2014-2016 oil crash that bankrupted dozens of American oil and gas companies and caused hundreds of thousands of layoffs. Although the industry survived, the experience proved to be very painful.
 
"Russia sees US shale as particularly vulnerable at the moment," said Ryan Fitzmaurice, energy strategist at Rabobank. "It is our view that Russia was targeting debt-laden US shale producers."

Russia can't win in an economic war with the U.S. They can only cause disruptions but we'll crush them as we did the Soviet Union in the 80's. Do they really think they'll beat us by keeping their own prices low? Hell, gas & oil is their economy and that economy is the size of Texas. As long as we have a strong leader who knows a little about negotiations and playing the right cards at the right time we'll be alright. If we end up with Bernie the Communist or Joe who gets lost in his own home, it'll be a problem.

SecState Pompeo Confronts UN Secretary General Guterres on UN Blacklist

by Joseph Klein

Original Article

 

Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo met on March 6th with United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres at UN headquarters in New York. Secretary Pompeo took the opportunity to condemn the UN’s highly biased pro-Palestinian decision to release its blacklist of companies doing business with Israeli firms operating in disputed areas of the West Bank and East Jerusalem, which includes several U.S. companies. According to the State Department’s readout of the meeting, Secretary Pompeo “reiterated his outrage at the decision by UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet to publish a database of companies operating in Israeli-controlled territories.”
