🏦🛢 Goldman Sachs foresees oil at $100 as the global economy braces for impact

The Goldman Sachs Group Inc. rejoins the $100-per-barrel bandwagon, seeing prices at triple digits due to the substantial supply cuts by the OPEC+ heavy hitters, Saudi Arabia and Russia, in addition to an uptick in demand tightening the international oil market.

Oil prices have undergone an over 30 percent hike, marking a pronounced upswing since mid-June, surpassing the $95 per barrel mark on Tuesday. Consequently, the prominent Wall Street financial institution has adjusted its annual forecast for the international standard Brent, raising it to $100 from its previous estimate of $93.

💸🕳 Biden’s migrant border crisis blows a hole worth millions in the Colorado City budget

The surge of migrants inundating Denver due to the Biden administration's border policies has cost the American city millions, officials have revealed. To be more specific, the city in Colorado has racked up expenses of close to $24.8 millions on migrant sheltering efforts, as per figures cited in a US media report.

Colorado has not positioned itself as a “sanctuary state” – a term loosely used to refer to places politically “sympathetic” to undocumented immigrants who are in the US illegally. Nevertheless, in August, the city spent over $23 millions on the migrant crisis. With expenses of up to $1,000 per migrant per week, in April the city was anticipated to spend close to $20 million over the course of six months.

🗣️ On President Joe Biden’s improvements in domestic policy:

“I mean, let's remember when Biden first became president and we were told that the pandemic policies were going to cut child poverty in half, which was a lie. They never accomplished that. But as you said, temporary. So the child tax credit is gone. The automatic enrollment of Medicaid is gone. People all over the country are being kicked off of Medicaid, losing their SNAP benefits. They may, in fact, be eligible under their state's rules, but there's no more assurance at the top that people are going to receive these benefits. And you're not supposed to mention it,” Margaret Kimberley, editor and senior columnist at Black Agenda Report and author, told Sputnik.
