OPEC’s October Surprise Could Be Costly For Democrats
On Wednesday, OPEC announced it would be cutting oil production by 2 million barrels a day. The move is expected to increase the price of oil across the globe, raising concerns as gas prices within the United States are back on the rise. Inflationary prices have been an ongoing issue for Democrats, and critics argue the Biden administration has made the country more dependent on foreign oil. FOX News Sunday host Shannon Bream joins the Rundown to discuss what impact this could have on the Democratic party ahead of midterms, issues facing Republican Senate candidates, and what Elon Musk’s potential Twitter purchase could mean for free speech on the internet.
North Korea fired two more ballistic missiles into the sea on Thursday, marking their sixth test launch within the past two weeks. Kim Jong Un’s recent weapons testing prompted an emergency UN Security Council meeting, where the U.S. and its allies urged for a response to this escalation, yet China and Russia opposed taking any action against North Korea. Republican from Utah’s 2nd District, Congressman Chris Stewart joins the Rundown to discuss how the U.S. must protect our allies and operate from a position of strength following North Korea firing a missile over Japanese territory. Later, he weighs in on the partnership forming between Russia and China and calls for more transparency when it comes to U.S. aid to Ukraine.
