    I wonder why Saudi won't increase production? Could it be that Trump threatened them if they didn't cut production a couple years ago. This is the type of leadership and ways of doing business that hurt the US for along time. All the allies he pissed off have consequences. Use to be the Saudi's would increase production when needed, but I guess threatening to pull all military support out of the country didn't help the relationship.

    You mean telling them to cut production during the start of the pandemic when no one was driving and we had an oil surplus building up and the price of oil was in a freefall?

    No threatening to pull all military out of the country if they didn't do as he demanded. There is a difference between negotiation and threatening. The so called Master negotiator only new how to burn bridges and threaten. And now our one time ally is not doing more to help us, as they did in the past.

    Biden is the band aid president...fortunately he's repaired our alliance with NATO and he tried to pass infrastructure bills that unfortunately the opposition wanted to fail...you're seeing a GOP bent on the failure of their failure's replacement.... neither Joe or Trump will be president again more than likely

    The big takeaway from this for me was the amount of congresspeople that are connected with big tech. Specifically Schumer, the majority leader.

    Backyard Chickens Linked to Nationwide Salmonella Outbreak: CDC

    More than 200 people across the country, including 11 in Illinois, have become ill after coming in contact with poultry in backyard flocks, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    Of the 219 infected with salmonella, one in four have been children under age 5, while 27 have been hospitalized and one person has died in Tennessee.

    Backyard chickens and ducks can carry salmonella germs even if they look healthy and clean, according to federal health officials, who say these germs can spread easily to anything in areas where poultry live and roam.

    People can get sick from touching their backyard chickens or ducks or anything in their environment and then touching their mouth or food and swallowing the salmonella germs.
