turned violent at an ice facility in Portland. These are

On here Bloomberg's Windy Benjaminson. Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski says
his nation is ready to secure additional deals with the
US on arms deliveries, including long range weapons, in addition
to an existing ninety billion dollar agreement. Zelenski said he
was not able to share more details as he spoke
with reporters in Kiev on Saturday. Ukraine currently relies on

its own long range air capabilities, chiefly drones, to reach
military and energy targets off and deep inside Russian territory.
As will cancel. Columbian President Gustavo Petros Visa, saying the
Andrean leader incited violence and called for American soldiers to
defy orders. The US Department of States said in a

(01:10):
post on X, we will revoke Petro's visa due to
his reckless and incendiary actions. Petro appeared in New York
City streets in protests against the Palestine conflict, calling on
US soldiers to disobey President Trump. This according to footage
released by the Colombian Presidential office. The leftist leader was
defiant on Saturday upon his return to Bogatah, accusing the

the United Nations should move its headquarters out of New York.
A new House bill would restore tax incentives for renewable
energy projects and expand a low income energy assistance program.
Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports from Washington.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
The blueprint aims to stem rising energy costs for Americans
by doubling down on wind and solar energy, building out
transmits lines to bolster the grid, and curtailing the Trump
administration's ability to favor fossil fuel projects over renewables. It
expands the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program to provide
year round access to reliable heating and cooling for disadvantaged households.

a potent election year issue to use against Republicans in Washington,

national campaigns to tackle over capacity and excessive competition are
bearing fruit. Industrial profits at August climb twenty point four

This according to data released Saturday by the National Bureau
of Statistics. For the first eight months of the year,

(02:47):

for a one point six percent drop. A government shutdown
could have ripple effects beyond Washington. Bloomberg's Nathan Hager has
more than one potential impact.

The US Travel Association says a shutdown could cost the
travel industry a billion dollars a week. The industry group
sent a letter to congressional leaders from both parties warning
that a lapse in federal funds would make staffing shortages
worse at TSA and air traffic control, leading to longer lines,
flight delays, and cancelations. The group cited in IPSO survey
that found six and ten Americans would cancel air troops

(03:23):
in a shutdown. The group says that could threaten economic
growth in every state. Nathan Hager, Bloomberg Radio.
