Putin Draws A Line With NATO Troops in Ukraine. Saudi Pipeline Offline

 Saudi Arabia's energy nightmare deepens as the Houthis capture the strategic island of Perim and shut down a critical Red Sea chokepoint, while a drone strike knocks the East West pipeline offline and sends oil prices swinging. Alex breaks down Vladimir Putin's blunt warning to NATO on sending troops into Ukraine, a jaw dropping report on the fifty billion euro cost of Germany cutting off Russian gas, and the daily clown world roundup from Budanov's corruption troubles to Trump's five thousand dollar dividend promise. How much more can the Saudi and European position take before it breaks?
