between the u.s. and saudi arabia hitting new lows over the opec decision to cut oil production. there is more bad economic news with only 26 days before the midterms. for the second straight day we received worse than expected inflation numbers and that has the white house scribbling for an explanation. jacqui heinrich starts us off from the north lawn. there is no timeline on when the consequences for the saudis that the president biden talked about might come. he might want to consult with congress and they are out of session until after the midterms but officials here are starting to paint a bit clearer of a picture of what it all might look like. the white house getting vocal about how seriously the president is considering calls from congress to scale back arms sales to saudi arabia after opec plus rejected white house please and slashed production. that is going to be on the table, that will be an option the president looks at. the spate and the scale, the size, th
president with the violence. tonight with the context, mick mulvaney, president trump s former chief of staff, and the former conservative cabinet ministerjustine greening. hello, welcome to the programme. on a tour of the television studios this morning, the business secretary jacob rees mogg tried to blame the bank of england, rather than the uk s economic policies, for the recent market turmoil. what has caused the effect in pension funds, because of some quite high risk but low probability investment strategies, is not necessarily the mini budget. it could just as easily be the fact that the day before, the bank of england did not raise interest rates as much as the federal reserve did, and i thinkjumping to conclusions about causality is not meeting the bbc s requirement for impartiality. it is a commentary rather than a factual question. it s notjust the bbc pointing to the cause and effect of kwasi kwarteng s budget. while there is undoubtedly a global element to this

does join us. amtrak workers are not involved, but many of the amtrak rails are owned by those freight railroad companies. this news was just announced moments ago in a statement. amtrak said started thursday it would cancel all long distance trains. as you mentioned, that is to avoid possible passenger disruptions while en route. obviously both sides are still negotiating and trying to reach an agreement before friday. it s not only the amtrak lines that will be impacted. for example, here in chicago already at least nine of the 11 metro lines have been suspended due to this possible strike. one travel expert who we heard from says this will be more if that strike happens than a travel nightmare. listen in. it s really going to bottle up the freight system. we have supply chain problems already. the ports are clogged. you throw in a rail strike and tens of thousands of containers can t get to where they want to go. that affects stores in our everyday lives. if this hap
nearly 1300 points. you can see it right here in the corner as you celebrated quite a contrast. scathing inflation report and the labor department revealing consumer price index rose 8.3 fears in august from a month ago. americans didn t need those numbers to know how bad things really are. food prices have seen their highest increase more than 40 years and cost of eggs, milk, and other basic staples are all going through the roof. it appears democrats are out of touch with americans. here s nancy pelosi yesterday asking for a round of applause. mr. president, thank you for unifying and inspiring a vision of a stronger, fairer, writer and future. your leadership made this glory yous day possible. that s an applause line. emily: cringe, there appears to be a downer that attended the party and here s the media reaction. harris: you re listening to president biden at the white house and celebrating the passage of inflation reduction act and fighting big pharma for decades
