## Resource

President Trump announces a deal to take control of a huge portion of Venezuelan oil reserves, claiming it will help bring gas prices down. Plus, the U.S. and Iran trade fire for the first time in a month as Washington ramps up economic pressure. And, with the midterms about two months away, volunteers in Michigan are knocking on doors to find out what voters really care about. Dasha Burns, Susan Glasser, Vaughn Hillyard, Scott Lincicome, Tim Stenovec, Ron Insana, and Chris Jansing join Money Power Politics this Monday morning.
