Par AFP © 2026 AFP L'Américaine Jessica Pegula (5e à la Race) a dominé l'Ukrainienne Marta Kostyuk (10e, repêchée après le forfait de Rybakina) 6-2, 7-5, mardi à Indian Wells dans le premier match de la 2e journée du groupe 1 au Masters WTA. Pegula, la plus ancienne à 32 ans des huit participantes du Masters, est tout de suite rentrée dans le match en prenant "blanc" le service de Kostyuk, grâce à d'excellents retours, conjugués à une volée manquée et une double faute de l'Ukrainienne.L'Américaine a gagné les quatre points suivants pour se détacher 2-0. Après une nouvelle double faute, Kostyuk s'est alors réveillée, pour mieux tenir ses jeux de service. Mais l'Ukrainienne, commettant trop de fautes directes (17 contre 5), a concédé un nouveau break à 4-2, pour permettre à Pegula de mener 5-2 puis de remporter la manche 6-2 en 29 minutes. Au deuxième set, Kostyuk a perdu ses deux premiers jeux de service, jetant alors sa raquette de rage après une septième double faute.Mais dans cette partie totalement décousue entre deux joueuses sur courant alternatif, Pegula perdait a aussi connu une petite baisse de régime, ce qui a permis à l'Ukrainienne de rester au ...

Par AFP © 2026 AFP La Bourse de New York a terminé dans le rouge mardi, pénalisée par la mauvaise surprise des chiffres de l'inflation américaine et les commentaires d'un responsable monétaire, qui font craindre de nouvelles hausses de taux de la Réserve fédérale (Fed).Le Dow Jones a reculé de 0,30 %, l'indice Nasdaq a cédé 0,74 % et l'indice élargi S&P 500 a perdu 0,38 %.Selon des données officielles publiées en début de journée, la hausse des prix à la consommation (CPI) a modestement ralenti le mois dernier aux États-Unis, à 0,4 % sur un mois. Les investisseurs s'attendaient à une décélération plus marquée.Pour Joseph Zidle, analyste chez Cresset Capital, interrogé par l'AFP, ces chiffres montrent que les pressions inflationnistes restent vives "et que la Fed va devoir se montrer offensive".L'institution monétaire doit en effet veiller à ce que les États-Unis s'approchent du plein emploi tout en connaissant une inflation maintenue, de l'ordre de 2 %.Les investisseurs considèrent pour le moment que le mandat sur les prix prime et attendent en conséquence une hausse de taux lors de la prochaine réunion de la Fed, en décembre.Mais un tour de vis classique - d'un quart de point de ...

Par AFP © 2026 AFPLes prix du pétrole ont encore baissé mardi, emportés par les espoirs d'une issue diplomatique entre Washington et Téhéran pour mettre fin à la guerre au Moyen-Orient, Donald Trump ayant évoqué lundi un "élan positif" vers un accord.Après être tombé en séance sous le seuil symbolique des 90 dollars, le prix du baril de Brent de la mer du Nord, pour livraison en janvier, a finalement clôturé à 91,49 dollars en baisse de 1,17 %. Son équivalent américain, le baril de West Texas Intermediate, pour livraison en décembre, a reculé de 0,93 % à 86,04 dollars.En l'espace d'une semaine seulement, le Brent et le WTI ont chuté de près de 11 %."Les investisseurs restent attentifs aux déclarations de l'administration Trump comme à celles de Téhéran et accordent, pour l'heure, le bénéfice du doute à la perspective d'un accord négocié permettant d'éviter une escalade", explique dans une note David Morrison, du courtier Trade Nation.Le chef de la diplomatie américaine Marco Rubio a exclu mardi une opération militaire majeure contre l'Iran, en écho à des déclarations de Donald Trump saluant "un élan positif" dans les négociations pour mettre fin à plus de huit mois de conflit.Il y ...

Par AFP Par Clare BYRNE © 2026 AFP Le pape Léon a évoqué mardi, au troisième jour de sa visite en Argentine, sa récente opération pour un cancer du poumon, mais exhorté à la "persévérance", affirmant que les limites du corps "ne peuvent éteindre le zèle" pastoral."Ni l’âge ni les limites du corps ne peuvent éteindre le zèle: nos forces peuvent s’épuiser, mais jamais la puissance de Dieu", a déclaré le souverain pontife dans la cathédrale de Cordoba (nord), où il s'adressait aux évêques, prêtres, séminaristes et religieux locaux.Peu auparavant, il les avait encouragés à la "persévérance au milieu de la souffrance", malgré "la fidélité éprouvante" qu'ils peuvent éprouver parfois dans le vie sacerdotale. Mentionnant, très brièvement, sa "récente hospitalisation", il a cité l'exemple d'un saint argentin, le "curé (José Gabriel) Brochero" (1840-1914), qui bien qu'"aveugle et atteint de la lèpre", continuait son oeuvre de missionnaire et "à servir son peuple".Le souverain pontife de 71 ans effectue en Uruguay, en Argentine jusqu'à mercredi, puis au Pérou, une intense tournée de 12 jours en Amérique latine, son premier voyage depuis son ...

California voters rejected a proposed one-time 5% tax on billionaire wealth, turning back a measure supporters said could raise tens of billions of dollars for healthcare. The tax would have applied to people who were California residents on Jan. 1, 2026, with payments spread over five years. The defeat came as some of the state's wealthiest residents warned they could leave California over the proposal. The state has one of the nation's largest billionaire populations and relies heavily on high earners to fund its budget, making the potential loss of additional wealthy residents a concern for state finances.

A billionaire tax that US Senator Bernie Sanders ​and other progressives championed as an antidote to economic inequality and a potential model for the ‌rest of the country was defeated in California, US media projected on Monday. Proponents had estimated Prop 40 would raise $100 billion in revenue, most of which would have been earmarked for healthcare programs to offset federal funding cuts designed to pay for tax breaks enacted ​last year under President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill." Those tax breaks, largely benefiting wealthy individuals and corporate ​interests, passed with Republican-only support in the US Senate. Continue Reading »

The Democrats' Blueprint For Permanent Power Authored by Stu Cvrk via American Greatness,The Constitution supplies legitimate ways to change those rules via the constitutional amendment process and nearly every item on the Democrat agenda is designed to bypass it.Every generation of Americans is told that some emergency justifies setting the Constitution aside just this once. Today's "emergency" comes with a slogan: saving democracy. Strip away the branding, and the Democrat Party's structural agenda looks like something entirely different - and reminiscent of the old Bolsheviki power play 100 years ago but recast for gaining control of U.S. institutions. Two new states, a packed Supreme Court, the end of the filibuster, an end run around the Electoral College, federal control of elections, and a government apparatus for policing "disinformation" are not a plan to save democracy. Taken together, they are a plan to make a future Democrat Party majority permanent. That was the Bolsheviki goal, too.Let's examine their plan in detail.THE DESIGN THEY WANT TO DISMANTLEThe Framers did not trust majorities, and they did not trust themselves. James Madison put it plainly in Federalist No. 51: "Ambition must be made ... Continue Reading »

House GOP Threatens Jensen Huang With Subpoena Over Alleged Chinese Spy Affair; Rubio Warned Trump Update (1450ET): House Foreign Affairs Chairman Brian Mast (R-FL) is prepared to subpoena Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang if he doesn't respond by Wednesday to a request from House Republicans for a closed-door briefing on his relationship with an alleged Chinese spy, Mast told ABC News on Tuesday.As we previously noted, Mast, Rep. John Moolenaar (R-MI) and Rep. Rick Crawford (R-AR), who chair the Foreign Affairs, China Select and Intelligence committees, asked Huang last week to brief all three panels on Nov. 18 - the day after Nvidia reports third-quarter earnings - and gave him until Nov. 11 to accept or propose another date.Separately, the New York Times reported that Secretary of State Marco Rubio briefed Trump on the intelligence about Huang aboard Air Force One in May, shortly before Huang joined the presidential trip to Beijing. That contradicts what Trump told reporters Monday when asked whether he knew about the relationship at the time: "No, I didn't hear about it then." The White House disputed the Times report on background without elaborating.Trump, who returns ... Continue Reading »

Wes Moore's Own Army Supervisor Calls Him A Liar About Combat Maryland's Democrat Gov. Wes Moore's own Army supervisor in Afghanistan says the governor never led troops in combat, calling his years of claims "disingenuous" and, asked whether he thinks Moore is a liar, he said "I do," according to Spotlight on Maryland.Retired Lt. Col. James "Jamie" Gottschling, then a major and the 82nd Airborne brigade's fire support coordinator, supervised Moore daily at Forward Operating Base Salerno. "His service in Afghanistan was good. He was a valued member of the brigade staff," he said. "It's disingenuous to say that you led paratroopers in combat or that you did what would be direct action activities in a combat zone." In a post on X May 8, 2022, Moore wrote of "when I was an Army captain and led soldiers into combat in Afghanistan." When I was an Army captain and led soldiers into combat in Afghanistan, we lived by a simple principle: Leave no one behind.But for too long in Maryland, too many of our families and neighbors have been left behind.— Wes Moore (@iamwesmoore) November 9, 2022 Meanwhile, in a March 2021 ...

Vitalik Buterin Moves On From 'Ultrasound Money', Says ETH's Value Is Stability Authored by Ryan S. Gladwin via Decrypt,Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin wants people to stop valuing ETH as a fee-burning token and start treating it as a store of value, arguing that the burn was "never" as strong as it seemed. Binji Pande, founding member of Ethlabs, told Decrypt that he agrees, claiming that it is a more "future-proof store of value" than Bitcoin.It's a notable shift in messaging from the Ethereum community, after ETH was branded as "ultrasound money" when the network started burning a portion of every transaction fee in 2021. The argument was that as more people used Ethereum, fewer coins would exist in circulation, and fewer coins meant a higher price. Now, however, Buterin claims that isn't as important as people may think."We should not feel sad if fee burn is < 10% of breakeven indefinitely; the value of ETH comes from elsewhere," Buterin tweeted on Sunday. That value, he argued, is stability, which comes from Ethereum being decentralized, resistant to censorship, and having strong security.Expanding on why I believe "ETH as store of ...

"Gayest" Democrat Congressman Bizarrely Compares Himself To Murderous Clown Who Terrorizes Children Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), who once proudly declared himself the "gayest" member of Congress, has comparing himself to Pennywise, the murderous clown from Stephen King's It, as Democrats prepare to launch a wave of investigations targeting President Donald Trump and his allies.Garcia, who is expected to chair the powerful House Oversight Committee in January, posted an image on X showing the sinister clown lurking inside a storm drain."When they go low this is me," Garcia wrote.when they go low this is me pic.twitter.com/UYr4vlreKw— Robert Garcia (@RobertGarcia) November 7, 2026The disturbing image depicts a scene from the horror story in which Pennywise lures a young boy named Georgie toward a sewer before brutally murdering him.The strange comparison comes as Garcia and his fellow Democrats appear increasingly eager to wield their newfound congressional power against Trump's administration.Speaking recently at Crooked Media's Crooked Con event, Garcia openly acknowledged that personal grudges could fuel his investigations."Maybe it's because I'm gay, but like, you know, like pettiness is a thing," Garcia told the cheering crowd."Maybe it's because I'm gay, but pettiness is ...

Department Of Labor Floats Stricter Rules For Unemployment Benefits Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times,The Department of Labor is proposing stricter rules for Americans trying to get unemployment benefits.To receive unemployment compensation (UC) benefits under the proposed rules, people would have to carry out a minimum of five unique job searches per week, unless exceptions are met."This action is necessary to reduce inconsistencies beyond those created by local labor markets in State-level requirements for individuals to actively seek work," the department said in the proposal, which was published on Nov. 10."The intended effect is to hold States accountable for administering a UC program that provides temporary wage replacement to eligible individuals while they are actively seeking work through a meaningful engagement with the labor market."Work search activities include contacting companies to seek work and participating in job interviews.Currently, some states require just one search per week. Others require two to four searches every week. A few mandate at least five per week.The different number of searches required across states can create confusion, lead to uneven enforcement, and increase the likelihood that people otherwise eligible for unemployment may ...

Pathway To Citizenship For DACA? Trump Directs DHS Chief To 'Work With Democrats' On Immigration Reform Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said Monday that President Trump instructed him to work with Democrats on immigration reform, a day after President Trump told "60 Minutes" that his mass deportation campaign may have gone too far - but Mullin says that won't include Amnesty.  Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin, speaks at a forum to address the evolving challenges and opportunities in drone security, at the National Harbor in Oxon Hill, Md., Friday, Nov. 6, 2026. Credit: AP/Manuel Balce Ceneta "We're never going to allow amnesty to happen," Mullin told reporters at a counter-drone conference in Maryland. He then left one door open: "Now, if we want to have an immigration reform to where we can look at DACA and figure out a way that these individuals can become maybe legal permanent citizens or something like this, that'll be up to Congress." Mullin was referring to recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which provides temporary protection from deportation and work authorization to eligible immigrants brought to the country illegally as ...

"Could Be First Shoe To Drop": AI Power Stocks Tumble As SoftBank's Write-Down Deepens Bubble Fears GE Vernova and Bloom Energy shares plunged Tuesday after SoftBank Group disclosed a $3.7 billion charge tied to power equipment procurement. We asked whether this write-down, cancellation, or "revised procurement strategy" in the AI spending boom could signal trouble ahead in a note titled "Masa's $3.7 Billion Bonfire: SoftBank Posts $7 Billion Loss After Torching Deposits On AI Power Gear As Interest Costs Double."SoftBank's disclosure followed Elon Musk's claim last week on X that Masayoshi Son's investment group was "defaulting on their turbine orders," an allegation SoftBank denied.For GE Vernova, however, the cancellation scare runs into a massive backlog. The company had 122 gigawatts of orders at the end of the third quarter, is targeting at least 130 gigawatts by year-end and is booking projects through 2031.GE Vernova and Bloom Energy are under pressure as traders price in the risk that SoftBank's procurement woes could signal a bigger retreat and/or spread ... UBS industrials and materials sector specialist Allyson Gordon addressed SoftBank woes and the selling pressure on GE Vernova and related stocks in ...

Houthis Mount Another Large Missile Assault On Riyadh & East-West Pipeline On Tuesday the Houthis launched another major missile salvo deep inside Saudi Arabia, however Saudi authorities have yet to acknowledge the fresh attack, or to publicly assess possible damage - though there are reports of missile alerts in the kingdom.The Houthi military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, announced the group once again targeted King Khalid International Airport, as well as multiple pumping stations along the kingdom's East-West pipeline. via Associated Press Saree further claimed fresh attacks on an Aramco facility in Abqaiq and the Riyadh's financial district.He added that the Houthis "targeted Saudi enemy troop concentrations overseen by the Saudi officer Badr al-Harbi in the al-Mudharabah and Ras al-Arah districts, resulting in a large number of dead and wounded."It's unclear whether the financial district attack was a reference from the day prior, when a Houthi attack damaged an Aramco office in Riyadh.What's clear is that these cross-border attacks are coming daily, and the Saudis seem powerfless to stop them, and there's been no major military help coming from Western allies like the US or UK (only minimal assistance, for example - intelligence ...

Hegseth Overhauls Military Education To Forge Warriors, Not Bureaucrats Authored by Catherine Salgado via PJ Media,Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is not going to bend to the Democrats or weak-kneed appeasers. He is still aggressively implementing his America First agenda.On November 9, the Department of War issued a press release on how to "restore a culture of accountability and warfighting excellence" in education and training. This reform targets the Professional Military Education (PME) system. The Senior Service College Task Force reviewed PME and Hegseth then ordered the "immediate, systemic reforms" for all the Intermediate Level Education (ILE) institutions and Senior Service Colleges.We must forge leaders of unmatched competence, sound moral judgment, and an unwavering warrior ethos. Our Senior Service Colleges must raise their standards to meet the expectations of the American people and deliver the leaders our warfighters deserve. https://t.co/oQtmNOkGSi— Department of War 🇺🇸 (@DeptofWar) November 9, 2026For too many years, America's military apparatus has prioritized woke ideology and bureaucratic compliance over battlefield readiness and leader integrity.

Ugly 10Y Auction: Foreign Demand Plummets, Directs Soar, Resulting In Biggest Tail Since February After a subpar 3Y auction on Monday, today's 10Y auction - which followed another hot CPI print - was downright ugly.Let's start at the top: the high yield of today's auction was 5.020%, which hit just as yields hit their peak for the day, with the 10Y rising more than 10bps above 5.0% for the first time in weeks. Still, this was a drop from last month's 5.317% (which was the highest in over 2 decades), but tailed the When Issued 5.010% by 1 basis point, the biggest tail since February. And with the auction pricing north of 5%, the coupon on the auction would be 5%, the highest since 2006. The bid to cover was also ugly: sliding to 2.468 from 2.771, this was the lowest coverage since May. But the internals were even uglier: Indirects plunged from a near record 80.3% in October to just 61.2%, the lowest since October 2023, as foreign buyers staged a bit of a strike.It meant that someone else would have to step up, and sure enough, Directs soared from ...

America's Nuclear Revival Is Running Into A Fuel Supply Wall Authored by Haley Zaremba via OilPrice,Foreign suppliers provided 93% of the uranium delivered to U.S. reactors, so progress on domestic enrichment still leaves the front of the fuel chain exposed. Only five plants worldwide convert uranium at scale. Per the National Interest, the West needs about 44,000 metric tons of feedstock a year and has roughly 34,000 tons of capacity. Urenco USA’s New Mexico plant covers about a third of U.S. enrichment demand and says its expansion is ahead of schedule and on budget, but Russia still holds nearly half of global enrichment capacity.The United States boasts the largest nuclear power production capacity in the world, but decades of insufficient funding and policy support is now posing an existential threat to the ageing sector. In the past decade, the United States has added just one new nuclear power plant to its fleet, while many more plants are drawing close to being decommissioned, at a time when clean, round-the-clock energy production has never been more needed. The Trump administration has been bullish about restoring the country's nuclear energy sector to its former ... Continue Reading »

Susie Wiles 'Pay-For-Play' Scandal Goes Nuclear With New Pfizer Accusations; White House Responds Pollster Mark Mitchell, an adviser to Vice President JD Vance, says Susie Wiles, Trump's former chief of staff, warned him off criticizing Pfizer, which he called her old lobbying firm's "number one client."Before she ran Donald Trump's 2024 campaign and then his White House, Wiles spent nearly a decade as a managing partner at Ballard Partners, the Florida-founded lobbying firm that has become the top-earning shop in Washington under Trump. Since she left (or was booted) as CoS shortly after midterms, several people in Trump's administrative orbit have accused her of using the job to protect the industries paying her old firm at the expense of the President's health agenda.The loudest of them has been Calley Means, a former top aide to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who, as we reported, told Joe Rogan that Wiles said "I need the sugar industry money." On Sunday Means took the case to CBS's "Face the Nation," telling Margaret Brennan that Ballard Partners "controlled" White House policy and that the firm's rise to the top of the lobbying ...

HUD Announces Largest Decrease In Homelessness On Record Authored by Naveen Athrappully via The Epoch Times,The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced a 6.3 percent annual decrease in homelessness in the United States, the largest decline on record.HUD said that on a single night in January 2026, 698,425 individuals were homeless, 6.3 percent fewer than January 2025, when President Donald Trump took office. The decline follows "historic border control and a Supreme Court victory reaffirming the right of local governments to limit dangerous encampments," the department said.Today, HUD announced the largest DECREASE IN HOMELESSNESS on record in American history.Since President Trump took office, homelessness is down over 6%.This is because of @POTUS' strong actions to secure the border, get criminal illegals off our streets, and restore safety. pic.twitter.com/yHHcaHZMSy— Department of Housing and Urban Development (@HUDgov) November 6, 2026In City of Grants Pass v. Johnson, the Supreme Court ruled in 2024 that a municipality enforcing camping bans on public property against homeless people did not constitute "cruel and unusual punishment" under the Eighth Amendment.The department criticized the Biden administration's "housing first" mandate, which prioritized placing people in permanent ...

The Reverse Ginsburg Scenario: Democrats May Only Need To Wait Rather Than Pack The Court Authored by Jonathan Turley via Jonathan Turley,Below is my column in the Hill on one possible impact of the midterm elections: the possible shift of the Court to a liberal majority by simple attrition rather than packing. The decision of Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito to remain on the Court will make the election in 2028 an existential fight for the Court and other core institutions in this country.Here is the column:In Henry VI, Shakespeare wrote, "Defer no time, delays have dangerous ends." Many today would like to chisel those words above the doors to the Supreme Court. Time and time again, justices waited too long for their own legacies. For many conservatives, the loss of both houses of Congress has created a true nightmare scenario in which two conservatives (Justice Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito) could hand Democrats the opportunity to take control of the Court without having to carry out their court-packing schemes. Control of the Court could now be lost by sheer attrition.Timing has always been a looming question for ... Continue Reading »

The Other Shoe Has Dropped: DOJ Investigating Marc Elias In Peltola Scandal Case Authored by Tim O'Brien via PJ Media,On October 29, I openly wondered whether the "stench of Alaska's Peltola scandal would spread to Marc Elias." Wonder no more.According to Just the News, the shady leftist lawyer who is best known for his work smearing President Donald Trump with the Russiagate hoax is now implicated in a scandal that's likely to grow.In October, I detailed the New York Times reporting of how Alaskan Senate candidate Mary Peltola's campaign allegedly actively recruited a nobody by the name of Dan Sullivan to enter the Senate race. This was, apparently, to confuse voters since the incumbent Republican senator in the race is also Dan Sullivan.In addition to that, insider emails uncovered by the Times indicated that the campaign was considering the creation of a fake MAGA party to confuse voters into thinking the leftist-organized party is really MAGA. Previously, I wrote:One of the insane ideas the Peltola campaign floated by a very receptive Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), according to the Times reporting, was the creation of a knockoff MAGA party ...

CPI Prints Hotter Than Expected; 50bps Rate-Hike Now On The Table As Fed's Waller Sparks Hawkish Panic With today's CPI print (and its 'ghost' YoY data and healthcare plug) on everyone's mind, hawkish comments from Fed Governor Chris Waller already gave markets a jolt this morning, pushing bond yields off their lows, with the biggest moves at the US short-end. “If, as I expect, the monthly rate of inflation improves in October, I am leaning toward supporting an increase in our policy rate of 25 basis points,” Waller said in a speech in London.“But if the October CPI inflation data out later today are similar to the past two monthly readings — with core CPI inflation around 0.3% or even higher — then a stronger policy move may be needed,” he said. “In that case, I believe a 50 basis point hike in the policy rate should be considered at the December meeting.”The remarks sent the dollar higher, stocks lower, and pushed Dec rate-hike odds to almost certainty (well 100% odds of a 25bp hike, not 50bps)...And that's before the CPI print...Headline Consumer Prices rose 0.4% MoM (vs +0.3% MoM exp ...

Even More Winning By Molly Schwartz, cross-asset macro strategist at RabobankBrent crude oil sank $4.60 to its lowest price since September, at $93.70/bbl on renewed hopes of world peace, as Trump announced over the weekend that it’s “highly unlikely” that we will order extensive strikes on Iran, assuming Iran signs a “very strong agreement.” The definition of what constitutes a “very strong agreement” may be flexible, depending on how the Trump Administration plans to define “winning” in the Middle East, after facing defeat in the US Midterm elections. But Hegseth is still coming under fire—not from the blue tsunami sweeping through DC in January, but rather from Republican Representative Thomas Massie, who has filed to impeach Hegseth. Massie wrote on X yesterday: “I’ve seen some of my colleagues say @SecWar Hegseth has been effective and they agree with the war, so they’ll vote not to impeach. That’s not the questions though. The question is whether he committed impeachable acts, and the answer is yes, eight times:” which, according to the articles, include starting the Iran war without congressional authorization, continuing the Iran war after Congress ordered US forces removed, extrajudicial ...

Rubio Says 'No Need' For Major Combat Operations In Iran, As Sanctions Are 'Devastating' US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is in Paris where he told a meeting of G7 ministers on Tuesday that the United States is "open to diplomacy" to end the conflict with Iran but that "the Iranian demands are totally unrealistic."Tehran is not backing off its seven conditions, which include things like the removal of sanctions and the payment of war reparations. Rubio stated, "We expect that could change – and if it does, we're prepared for diplomacy."There was one big line in particular from the US top diplomat that is grabbing headlines. Rubio declared there is "no need" for renewed major combat operations against the Islamic Republic. via Associated Press He signaled that the ecomomic war, however, will keep going and even be intensified: "The economic campaign (against Iran) is so devastating that right now there is no need for major combat operations," Rubio described after the G7 foreign ministers met.
