This is a freak show.
US oil tumbled as much as 2.2% to $57.30 a barrel immediately after Trump tweeted out the firing of Bolton. Crude bounced off those lows and was recently trading around $57.75 a barrel.
Meanwhile Flynn was back in court today.
Michael Flynn sentencing set for Dec. 18 in case where he pleaded guilty to lying to FBI
.....
U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan set an Oct. 31 hearing to weigh Flynn’s allegations that prosecutors withheld classified and other evidence they assert would help his case.
But even as he did, Sullivan pressed Flynn’s team about the relevance of its claims and said both sides would have to ponder how to proceed if the government stands by its position that no such evidence exists.
“Is that where this is headed …?” Sullivan asked Flynn attorney Sidney Powell, “to say, what, he’s innocent of this charge?”
Powell replied: “To say this entire prosecution should be dismissed for egregious government misconduct and suppression” of evidence potentially beneficial to Flynn.
