Election..
A congressional backlash against Saudi Arabia escalated sharply on Monday as a powerful Democratic senator threatened to freeze weapons sales and security cooperation with the kingdom after its decision to support Russia over the interests of the US.
Washington’s anger with its Saudi allies has intensified since last week’s Opec+ decision to cut oil production by 2m barrels, which was seen as a slight to the Biden administration weeks ahead of critical midterm elections, and an important boost to Russia.
But the remarks by Senator Robert Menendez, who serves as chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, indicated a serious possible sea change in US policy.
The Democratic Party and the President have one important policy, Win the Midterm Election and the power that goes with it. Biden repeated his call to reduce fossil fuel in favor of Climate Change. That has been dismissed as the Election is around the corner.

Sanctuary city, refers to municipal jurisdictions, that limit their cooperation with the national government's effort to enforce immigration law. Leaders of sanctuary cities say they want to reduce fear of deportation and possible family break-up among people who are in the country illegally, so that such people will be more willing to report crimes, use health and social services, and enroll their children in school.
In the United States, municipal policies include prohibiting police or city employees from questioning people about their immigration status and refusing requests by national immigration authorities to detain people beyond their release date, if they were jailed for breaking local law.[1]
"Sanctuary city" does not have a precise legal definition. The Federation for American Immigration Reform estimated in 2018 that 564 U.S. jurisdictions, including states and municipalities, had adopted sanctuary policies.
NYC declared an emergency. Just a thought.

What President Biden asked the Saudi to do doesn't fit with open Market, US policy, or anything related to his early decisions. Biden's Administrations proudly canceled Keystone XL pipeline, Nord Stream 2 pipeline in Germany and placed sanctions on Russian economy with an intention to destroy the stock market and Russian economy.
That in turn, cause major energy problems in Europe that leading to Europe recession.
Opec decided to reduced oil production by 2 million Barrel/day, and in 3 more months they may reduce additional 1 million barrel/day. Just a thought.
