Oil Prices Dip On Report Of Another Potential OPEC+ Supply Boost
- OPEC+ is considering a third straight monthly output hike, departing from the norm of stabilizing oil markets. According to Bloomberg, the group of 12 major oil-exporting nations, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, and others, is considering a July increase of 411,000 barrels per day (bpd)—roughly triple the previously planned amount. This would mirror supply increases in May and June. Such an increase in July could lead to a breakdown in Brent crude’s $60-per-barrel price floor (as long as the war risk premium remains suppressed).
- Brent fell to $63 a barrel, down about 1.7% following the news. West Texas Intermediate dropped to around $60 a barrel.

Privatizing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could allow them to operate as fully independent entities, potentially increasing their market value ,their strong cash flows could attract investors, boosting stock prices and creating value for shareholders.
-
Currently under conservatorship by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), privatization would reduce the government’s direct financial exposure to the mortgage market. This could align with a policy goal of shrinking the federal footprint in housing finance, transferring risk to private investors.
-
could reassure investors and stabilize mortgage-backed securities markets, potentially lowering borrowing costs for homeowners.
-
As public companies, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could raise additional capital through equity markets. This could fund technological upgrades, improve risk management, or expand affordable housing initiatives, enhancing their competitiveness and public mission.

: A successful public offering could inject capital into the economy, both through the proceeds of the sale and by encouraging investment in the housing sector. This could support job creation in related industries like construction and real estate.
90% Of US Companies Plan To Reshore Amid Tariffs, Allianz Survey Finds
- Nine out of 10 U.S. companies say they expect to bring some or all of their production or sourcing back home in response to new tariffs imposed under President Donald Trump’s trade policy, according to the latest Allianz Trade Global Survey.
- The survey, published on May 20, hints at an acceleration in reshoring efforts as U.S. firms adapt to the tariffs, as Trump pursues a global trade reset to boost domestic manufacturing and correct what he says are decades of unfair practices by other countries that put the United States at a disadvantage.
- Allianz researchers found that roughly 90 percent of U.S. companies plan to reshore or switch to domestic suppliers in the wake of the April 2 global tariff announcement. U.S. firms ranked among the most likely in the world to pursue domestic sourcing, alongside companies in Italy and Spain.
“That said, it may be easier said than done,” the Allianz report’s authors wrote.
“When asked about the top hurdles standing in the way of reshoring, supplier-related issues and no longer higher costs was the top choice compared to last year. Labor-related issues round up the top three hurdles.”
- More than three-quarters of companies pointed to supply chain structure—their complexity, concentration, or competition—as a key threat to offshore production, with the high share of declared reshoring intentions suggesting that firms see clear benefits to simpler, domestic supply chains in the face of Trump’s trade policies.

- In the early hours of Thursday morning, the House of Representatives narrowly approved a procedural motion to advance President Donald Trump’s sweeping tax and spending package, dubbed the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” The 217-212 vote, with only Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) breaking ranks, sets the stage for a final vote later today.
- The bill, exceeding 1,000 pages, aims to extend the 2017 tax cuts, eliminate taxes on tips and overtime, and introduce new deductions.
- Early Wednesday, members of the House Freedom Caucus demanded additional time to negotiate, calling for deeper cuts to Medicaid and a faster phaseout of green energy tax credits.

- As reported earlier, a federal judge on Wednesday ruled that the Trump Administration violated his court order when it deported seven illegal aliens to South Sudan.
- US District Judge Brian Murphy, a Biden appointee, said the Trump Administration violated his court order to provide the aliens with “meaningful” due process since they were being sent to “third-party” countries.
- Some of the aliens are from Laos, Vietnam, and Cuba, so sending them to South Sudan puts them in danger, attorneys argued.
- Judge Murphy suggested Trump Admin officials may have committed contempt, but he stopped short of taking action.
- Later Wednesday, Judge Murphy ordered the Trump Administration to give “reasonable fear” interviews to the criminal aliens deported to South Sudan.
- Judge Murphy also ordered the US government to provide interpreters and counsel to the aliens during the interview.

Trump administration asks Supreme Court to stop DOGE from being forced to release records
- The Trump administration on Wednesday asked the Supreme Court to weigh in on yet another case, this time to stop a court from forcing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to release internal records to a watchdog organization.
- Solicitor General D. John Sauer has filed many emergency requests to the Supreme Court since taking office, including a request for the court to lift a block on the mass firings of federal employees in at least 21 different agencies.
- The new emergency application centers on allegations that a lower court judge overstepped his authority by ordering DOGE to release the records to the watchdog group, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, through its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
- Sauer argued that DOGE should be exempt from complying with FOIA requests because it is a presidential advisory group, the New York Times reported. The White House has also tried to argue that documents procured by DOGE are presidential records, and thereby exempt from FOIA.
- The new case is the second DOGE-related request Sauer has made to the Supreme Court this month. He also asked the high court to let members of DOGE have access to sensitive Social Security Administration records.

Young Professional Board captured the moment when alleged gunman Elias Rodriguez, 30, from Chicago according to police, was detained after shooting and killing two Israeli Embassy staffers just outside the museum, located in the 500 block of 3rd Street, NW, near the FBI field office for D.C.
- Rodriguez is seen on video shouting as he was being detained. “Free, free Palestine,” in the same cadence as heard at communist-led protests on American college campuses. An eyewitness reported Rodriguez threw a red keffiyeh on the floor and also chanted, “There is only one solution, Intifada revolution.”

LinkedIn profile reportedly representing Rodriguez’s background and radical leftist activist group ties shows he is from Chicago, holding an English degree from the University of Illinois and being employed by the nonprofit American Osteopathic Information Association as an “administrative specialist.”
Rodriguez previously was a researcher at The HistoryMakers, which is the “US’s largest African-American video oral history archive,” according to website data. Its website said Rodriguez “prepares biographies of accomplished leaders in the African-American community.”
Rodriguez donated to former President Joe Biden’s campaign, The Times of London reported.
A 2017 GoFundMe fundraiser started by anti-Israel activist group Answer Chicago depicted a man by the name of Elias Rodriguez as a “young resister” and the “son of an Iraq war veteran,” the Times reported. An Answer Chicago account on X had posted about “anti-war” and Palestinian activism before Hamas terrorists killed an estimated 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7, 2023, but the account showed no posts since the early days of the Biden administration.
Past media reports also showed an Elias Rodriguez matching the shooter’s profile as appearing at Black Lives Matter protests in Chicago and speaking out against racism in America, saying, according to the Times, that Amazon’s “whitening of Seattle is structurally racist and a direct danger to all workers who live in that city.”
“So do we in Chicago and all across the country want a nation of cities dominated and occupied by massive corporations where only the rich and white can live and the vast majority of us must live on edges of the city and society living in deeper and deeper poverty?”
It’s called: “In God We Trust.”

BREAKING: Biden Judge Blocks Trump from Dismantling Department of Education
- In March, President Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education.
- “We’ve got to get the federal government out of education,” Trump declared. “The Department of Education has become a bloated bureaucracy that’s more interested in pushing its own agenda than in helping our kids learn. It’s time to put the power back in the hands of parents, teachers, and local communities.”
- US District Judge Myong Joun, a Biden appointee, issued an injunction blocking the Trump Administration from laying off Department of Education workers.
It is therefore ORDERED, until further order of this Court, that:
1. The Agency Defendants are enjoined from carrying out the reduction-in-force announced on March 11, 2025; from implementing President Trump’s March 20, 2025 Executive Order; and from carrying out the President’s March 21, 2025 Directive to transfer management of federal student loans and special education functions out of the Department;
2. The Agency Defendants are enjoined from implementing, giving effect to, or reinstating the March 11, 2025, the President’s March 20, 2025 Executive Order, or the President’s March 21, 2025 Directive under a different name;
3. The Agency Defendants shall reinstate federal employees whose employment was terminated or otherwise eliminated on or after January 20, 2025, as part of the reduction in-force announced on March 11, 2025 to restore the Department to the status quo such that it is able to carry out its statutory functions;

- On Tuesday, the Department of Justice opened a criminal investigation into former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo over his responses to Republicans on his handling of the COVID-19 lockdowns.
- Last weekend, FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed that the agency is investigating current New York Attorney General Letitia James over past real estate transactions. The James case centers on whether she committed fraud on a mortgage application when she allegedly falsified records by claiming in writing that a Norfolk, Virginia, home she purchased with her niece in 2023 would be her “principal residence” while acting as attorney general for New York City.

- Now, it’s time for our friends in the United States Senate to get to work, and send this Bill to my desk AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! There is no time to waste. The Democrats have lost control of themselves, and are aimlessly wandering around, showing no confidence, grit, or determination.
- They have forgotten their landslide loss in the Presidential Election, and are warped in the past, hoping someday to revive Open Borders for the World’s criminals to be able to pour into our Country, men to be able to play in women’s sports, and transgender for everybody. They don’t realize that these things, and so many more like them, will NEVER AGAIN happen!
- Turns out the guy they keep referring to as a fascist, the one they say is causing a Constitutional crisis every time he blinks, is doing a better job of protecting the Constitution than his predecessor.
- A new poll from Rasmussen Reports shows that voters view President Trump, by a fairly sizable margin, as currently protecting the supreme law of this nation better than Joe Biden.
- The survey shows that 52 percent of Americans think Trump is upholding his oath to “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
- By contrast, the same poll a year earlier showed that just 44 percent believed former President Joe Biden was doing what was necessary to protect the Constitution.
