## Resource

An American Apache helicopter was shot down and both crew members were rescued alive — thank God. But the President said we must respond and those three words may have just opened the military door he has been holding shut for months. Is this the moment the Iran conflict escalates decisively? Meanwhile oil and gas reserves are being drawn down fast and a significant price spike may be closer than anyone is admitting publicly. And in Maine on Tuesday Democrats are asking themselves a genuinely hard question — do you vote for Graham Platner knowing his checkered past because the politics demand it or do you vote your conscience and live with the consequences? Character versus strategy. Maine decides Tuesday. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tom-sullivan-show--6632619/support .
