Republican Mayor Celebrates African Refugees As The "New Pioneers"
A Republican mayor in Utah is catching heat for turning the state's traditional Pioneer Day into a celebration of African refugees, dubbing them the modern-day equivalents of the Mormon settlers who founded the Beehive State.

His answer was "not much," warning that prices could soar well into triple-digit territory if the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked through August and threats to Red Sea shipping intensify.
Patterson's warning about disruptions at the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait echoes concerns voiced across commodity desks this week: the longer these critical chokepoints remain impaired, the greater the upside risk to Brent, WTI, and fuel prices at the pump.
Fresh Houthi announcement, which muddles the waters a bit.
Paraphrasing: No closure of the Bab el-Mandeb strait; blockade only targets "the Saudi side," but that leaves unclear whether it includes (or not) foreign vessels lifting Saudi crude (or only Saudi oil tankers). ...
