Donald Trump said Wednesday that the United States has 'many options' including some 'dastardly things' to respond to the attack on Saudi oil facilities – after Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called it an 'act of war.'
The president was asked about comments the nation's top diplomat made about the bombing, which he also labeled an 'Iranian attack' as he traveled to Saudi Arabia.
Trump pushed back at critics, including Sen. Lindsey Graham, who said his lack of a military response against Iran for a summer attack on a U.S. drone was perceived in Tehran as 'weakness.'

Things are so bad pork prices have risen 50%.
Pork has risen 70% in some cities.
China is tapping the strategic Pork Reserve. I thought that meant they were doubling tapping Coastal Porkers on vacation to China.
But seriously, the US has a strategic petroleum Reserve and the CCCP has a national pork reserve. They keep this stuff in freezers. That must be quite an electricity reserve.
Has the enemedia talked as much about this Chinese draw dawn of strategic reserves as they have about how bad the trade war is for the US? Of course not, they are the enemedia.
The Chinese Strategic Pork Reserve is mainly stocked with American Pork. They draw it down and they will have to restock it with America pork.

"DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz Reveals He Referred James Comey For Criminal Prosecution"
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2019/09/doj-inspector-general-michael-horowitz-reveals-he-referred-james-comey-for-criminal-prosecution/
"Comey gave portions of his classified memos to his friend-turned-lawyer-turned-unpaid-FBI-official Daniel Richman to leak to the New York Times in order to prompt a special counsel investigation into President Trump."
So if I work for the DoD, I can give classified information to my friend-turned-lawyer-turned-turned-UNPAID-DoD-official to leak to Telemundo?
Can any one make anyone else an unpaid-FBI-official?
Can any one make anyone else an unpaid-DoD-official?
Does calling them an unpaid official give you and them some sort of protection ... at least in the eyes of the press prostitutes?
"Horowitz released a report last month on Comey’s handling of his classified memos and said he “set a dangerous example” when he leaked his Trump memos to his friends and attorneys."
DEMOCRATS are EVIL MOTHER FUCKERS!
"The sanctuary state of Illinois apparently gave a driver’s license to the illegal alien accused of killing father of two Corey Cottrell in an alleged hit and run in June."
"As Breitbart News has chronicled, Jose Rodriguez, a 27-year-old illegal alien from Honduras, is accused of running a red light on June 22 in Illinois, causing him to hit and kill 39-year-old Cottrell, who was riding his motorcycle at the time to visit his mother, Kathy. Police said Rodriguez fled the scene of the accident and turned himself in the following day."
