Yesterday, Trump’s midterm convention had its second night, The
audience was sparse, but Trump got the loyalty he demanded from
the crowd that showed up, He promised, again, to pay all adult US
citizens $5,000 if the Republicans hold control of the House and
the Senate, Meanwhile, along with the Strait of Hormuz being
under the control of Iranian forces, Iran backed Houthi militants
expanded their control of the area around the Bab el-Mandeb
strait which has become an alternative route for Saudi Arabian
oil to be shipped to the west, Although the Houthis do not
control both sides of the strait, they threaten shipping through
the passage, Iran appears to be retaliating for Trump’s threats
to strangle the Iranian economy by further slowing the transport,
Today is the 25th anniversary of 9/11, Trump did not attend the
commemoration at Ground Zero, but delivered a speech at the
Pentagon, tying the war on Iran to the attacks of 9/11, All four
former presidents and first ladies attended the ceremony, As a
famous issue of The Amazing Spider-Man, published in November,
2001, explained, the heroes of 9/11 were ordinary people, who
were made extraordinary “by acts of compassion, and courage, and
terrible sacrifice."
