Iran's Oil Lifeline Is Running Dry — and Bessent Says $40 Crude Could Be Coming

Oil prices could go down to $40 or $50 a barrel "on the other side" of the Iran conflict, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a weekend interview, as supply coming on that's currently constrained is able to flow freely.
An end to that conflict seems closer than ever due to the success of Operation Economic Fury and this weekend's invocation of "Chicago rules" by CENTCOM in response to Iranian missile strikes on ships in the Strait of Hormuz (which Streiff expertly covered here). After sinking three (empty) Iranian tankers in response to missile launches targeting two of our ships, CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper said:
____________
“Let the message to the IRGC be clear: If you shoot at two of our ships, we will impose an even higher economic cost —taking out three of yours. We will not hesitate to defend American forces, and if necessary, destroy Iran’s limited and exposed oil fleet.”

Bessent told Fox News' Lara Trump that the United States is in control of the Strait of Hormuz, and that because "the oil producing nations of the gulf are actually building alternative pipeline routes that will no longer entail oil going through the Strait of Hormuz," Iran won't be able to threaten their neighbors or create a chokepoint in the future.
As a result of the successful blockade, Bessent reports that Iran only has about "30 million barrels of crude oil left that China hasn't bought," and once that supply has run out "there will be no problem with China buying because they have no product.”

Is There a Revolution Now Brewing in Germany?
Ward Clark X Follow @TheGreatLander | 5:27 PM on September 06, 2026

Germany has been dangerously close to failed-state status in recent years. The nation was once an industrial powerhouse, not just during World War II and the years leading up to it, but before and after. Germany is also a country with a great martial tradition and a long history - all of which some recent German leaders, like the unfortunate Angela Merkel, seemed determined to discard.
Things may be changing now for Deutschland. The "far-right" Alternative für Deutschland (Alternative for Germany, or AfD) party has been winning elections, and now, on Sunday, they may win an outright majority in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt.
____________
A political earthquake is brewing in Germany's east as working-class and young voters appear set to deliver an unprecedented victory for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Sunday’s state elections in Saxony-Anhalt.
The AfD, which was famously backed by Elon Musk in last year’s national election, has been criticized for being pro-Russia and was accused of being a "right-wing extremist endeavor" by Germany’s domestic intelligence office, has the chance to become the first party outside the mainstream center-left Social Democratic Party (SPD) or center-right Christian Democratic Union and their Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CDU/CSU), to win an outright majority in a German state parliament, or Landtag, since World War II.
"The reason Saxony-Anhalt matters," foreign policy expert and author Daniel Schatz, who holds a doctorate in political science from Berlin's Humboldt University, told Fox News Digital, "is that the AfD is no longer just knocking on the door of power. It may be close to kicking it open."
Immigration and energy are key AfD issues, among other things. Under Chancellor Merkel, the gates were thrown open to all and sundry; there are 1.3 million "refugees" from Syria alone in Germany, and the AfD is making a platform plank out of sending them back and clamping down on immigration from that part of the world.

The Chinese regime’s detention of U.S. citizen U Min Zin amounts to coercive “hostage diplomacy,” serving as a serious global warning that other authoritarian states could adopt similar tactics, experts warn.
Scholars at Risk—a U.S.-based academic freedom watchdog group—urged the relevant authorities “to facilitate Min Zin’s immediate and unconditional release, and for his safety to be guaranteed,” according to a statement on Aug. 27.
It also expressed gratitude for the U.S. State Department’s Aug. 20 designation of Min Zin as “wrongfully detained” by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The department said it will “continue to advocate for Mr. Zin and call for the release of all U.S. citizens who are arbitrarily detained or exit-banned in China.”

The U.S. Embassy in Cuba has issued a health alert, warning Americans about a rise in gastrointestinal illnesses caused by the island nation’s water and energy grid collapses.
“The U.S. Embassy has noted a significant increase in diarrheal illness across Cuba, associated with the continuing degradation of the water and energy infrastructure,” according to the alert published on Sept. 4.
The embassy said the degradation impacted the country’s water supply, food storage, and temperature control, sparking infections such as E. coli, norovirus, Shigella, and other gastrointestinal pathogens.

An Amazon cargo plane went off a runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday, hitting multiple vehicles and bursting into flames, leading to closures.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) said in a statement that “21 Air Flight 7598 overran the runway after landing at Miami International Airport around 2 p.m. local time.”
The Boeing 767-300 cargo aircraft left Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico, it added. The agency is currently investigating the matter.
Images published online showed a cargo plane with Amazon Prime Air branding beside a roadway, with two semi-trucks parked nearby, and an Amazon spokesperson later acknowledged it was an Amazon flight.

Nationalist Win In Germany Sunday Could Be Earth-Shaking News

"Any foreign journalist who's in Saxony-Anhalt this weekend will feel like [the late ABC World News Tonight correspondent] Peter Jennings in 1989 when he broke the news that East German authorities were opening their borders to West Germany."
That is what a German businessman living in the U.S. told Newsmax last week, as the small state of Saxony-Anhalt (population: 2.1 million) prepared for elections Sunday whose outcome is almost sure to be historic and reported worldwide.
Just about every late poll shows the nationalist and ever-controversial Alternative for Germany (AfD) Party easily winning 40% to 45% and, very possibly, having enough seats in the landtag (state parliament) to form the state government — the first time a far-right party has governed a German state since World War II.
Such a result would surely have an impact on politics throughout Germany and in Ukraine, Russia, Brussels (the de facto capital of the European Union), and possibly the United States.
With its fierce opposition to supporting Ukraine in its war with Russia and call for friendly relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, the AfD's historic capture of a regional government would no doubt fuel calls to reduce Germany's role as the second-largest bilateral provider of military aid to Ukraine, after the United States.

9/11 Families Plan to Ignore Mamdani at Ceremony
VIDEO
By Solange Reyner | Saturday, 05 September 2026 12:46 PM EDT
Relatives of people killed on Sept. 11 say they will ignore New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani if he attends this year's memorial ceremony at Ground Zero, telling the New York Post they would rather turn away than confront him on the 25th anniversary of the attacks.
A Change.org petition urging that Mamdani stay away has drawn more than 98,000 signatures. Organizers plan to hand deliver it to City Hall on Sept. 8, at a news conference on the building's steps led by petition organizer Giovanni Galante and Councilwoman Joann Ariola, a Queens Republican.
Galante's wife, Grace, 29, died in the attacks. He told the Post that no one intends to block the mayor or argue with him.
"No one's going to be there saying, 'You can't come in,'" Galante said. "I know he likes to come in your face and try to say hello and shake your hand, but I would definitely ignore him."
Families who signed the petition point to Mamdani's past remarks and to figures he has associated with. The ceremony marks the deaths of 2,977 people.

China’s Provinces Show Evidence of Financial Pressure and the Economy’s Imbalances
A new Ministry of Finance report shows how China’s provinces have had to turn increasingly to Beijing for help with widening budget gaps.

Commentary
Some 28 provinces and separate jurisdictions increasingly have had to turn to Beijing for help closing budget gaps, according to China’s Ministry of Finance.
It is not unusual for Beijing to have to chip in. It gets the lion’s share of the country’s tax revenues. But the growing need to turn to Beijing nonetheless points to the economy’s imbalances and other problems.
Some transfers from Beijing have occurred since the country’s tax-sharing reforms were implemented in the 1990s. Beijing gets all income tax revenues from both individuals and companies, all securities trading levies, and all customs duties.

Florida Puts Citizens First, Bans Illegal Immigrants From Universities
Ward Clark X Follow @TheGreatLander | 4:46 PM on September 04, 2026
Florida Man. (Credit: AI image, created by Brad Slager with Bing Image Creator)
It stands to reason that American colleges and universities should be for American students and, if room and so on permit, people who are at least in the country legally, on a student visa. Not for people who are in the country illegally, no matter how they came to be here; we should not reward lawbreakers by letting them attend our universities. But too many states do precisely this, even awarding illegal aliens with in-state tuition rates and financial aid.

Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg is back in the headlines — and it's probably news that he would rather forget.
The new Attorney General Todd Blanche was recently notified by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) about the past activities of election activist groups, including the Zuckerberg-funded Center for Election Innovation and Research, or CEIR.
