Also seen: Hamas headband and a few Hezbollah flags, the same day that an IRGC operative was arrested for planning to carry out attacks on Synagogues. Where are the police? FBI?
Fox News' Bret Baier: Contested districts are now tilting to Republicans. Do you think that makes the difference in holding the House? U.S. President Donald Trump: "Well, it helps... I think a bigger difference would be if I win (in Iran) quickly, as opposed to after... prices are down, but the energy caused it to go up... it's going to come down lower than it was."
