On Thursday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” former Trump National Security Adviser and former Trump Envoy Keith Kellogg said that Iran is being supplied by China, but “when you look at kinetic strikes and the military, they don’t have anything really left” and while they will be able to use drones and ballistic missiles on occasion, “it’s not something that I would really be concerned about.” Guest host David Asman said there are “enablers” like the UAE on finance, and then asked, “But what about China? First of all, are they still being supplied weapons by China?” Kellogg answered,…
Seasonal gas storage levels are at their lowest on record, leaving a “huge concern” over Britain’s energy security in the coming months, a top industry figure has said. Chris O’Shea, the CEO of Centrica — which owns British Gas — has sounded the alarm on the bare cupboard of energy security Britain has to fall back on going into winter. The United Kingdom already has a comparatively small national bunkering capability for natural gas — and the government has proven astonishingly reluctant to change this, despite opportunity and the importance of natural gas to the country — and even this…

Rep. Diana Harshbarger (R-TN) introduced legislation on Thursday that would end the 158-year-old federal ban on the home distillation of spirits, allowing adults 21-years-old and older to distill their own spirits at home in small quantities for personal use.

Norm Eisen, the godfather of the color revolution and unhinged Trump-hater, went on with CNN this morning to argue how we (Democrats) need their mail-in votes in November. When Democrats freak out about losing unlimited mail-in ballots from illegal voters or made-up names, they are telling you something you already know. Democrats can’t win without their fake voters. And, it appears, if these numbers are correct that Democrats depend on these phantom voters to win elections. This explains everything… Look at 2020. Flu cases confirmed by the CDC:2012: 34 million2016: 29 million2020: 1.8 million2024: 40 million Mail in ballots in…

And “when you write the memorandum, write the agreement, whatever you write, the IAEA needs to have unfettered access to every one of those sites” which means having people on the ground. Kellogg began, “I’m still concerned that we don’t have eyes on the enriched uranium. That’s really the reason we went there. It wasn’t necessarily the Strait of Hormuz.” He added that “we’ve totally…
