Again: Hurricane Nate is winding up and is projected to hit the Gulf Coast–right around New Orleans–over the weekend. Not a good scenario as New Orleans has all kinds of issues with flood drainage.
The Tillerson-Trump disconnect continues as the two can’t seem to agree on anything except their disagreements. One of them will be leaving soon. Hint: it won’t be the President.

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and President Donald Trump are apparently having a rather difficult period in their relationship. Bannon is said to have made highly critical remarks about the President and President Trump, who demands completely loyalty, cannot be pleased. Tillerson has not been a particularly effective Secretary of State. Will Tillerson be the next high ranking Administration official to be shown the door?

The tweet war between the White House and Puerto Rico continues, but there is hope that everyone will be distracted by today’s flag/national anthem demonstrations in the NFL.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has acknowledged that there is “direct communication” between the U.S. and North Korea. It would be good if that on-going dispute would “normalize” and remove some of the animosity from the situation.
The U.S. Team leads the International Team 14.5 to 3.5 in the President’s Cup. It takes 15.5 points to win the cup. There are 12 singles matches planned for today–the last day of competition. It would not be an understatement to say that the International Team will need a miracle to win the cup.

Good Morning, it’s Saturday, 30 September 2017 and this is the Morning Edition of The Nightshift, the world’s overnight news feed.
HHS Secretary Tom Price has resigned over the scandal about his private jet  travel. He is reported to have spent as much as $1.0 million on private jets while performing his duties as Health and Human Services Secretary. He was ineffective as HHS leader, ineffective in the House, and will not be missed.
The Mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico–who is on the ground there–has complained that the relief efforts from the United States to assist the hurricane ravaged island are not happening fast enough and that Puerto Rico is still suffering. The President–who is not on the ground in Puerto Rico–has told the press that efforts are going very well. There’s a bit of a disconnect between the two scenarios.
The President’s Cup continues through the weekend. As of this morning, the U.S. leads the match play competition 8 to 2.

The heat is being turned up on the White House for the ineffective manner in which they are handling the hurricane crisis in Puerto Rico. There are news reports of containers of relief goods stuck on the docks in Puerto Rico and there is no effective communications across the island. We’ve seen this type of administrative failure before during Hurricane Katrina.
President Trump is proposing a new and radically different tax plan. It has not received favorable response. The main beneficiaries are wealthy individuals and families who will no longer be subject to the AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax) or the Estate Tax.
HHS Secretary Tom Price is under fire for running up a $400,000 private jet bill while, allegedly, working on government business. Price has also been criticized in the past for some of his stock trading practices while a member of Congress. Perhaps it’s time to face reality: Price is not working in the public interest and needs to be fired.
The American Team is leading the International Team 3.5 to 1.5 after the first day of play in the President’s Cup. More golf on tap today, with 5  four-ball matches scheduled for Liberty National Golf Club, located just outside New York City.

It’s over for the Obamacare repeal. The proposed vote on the contentious issue has been withdrawn. Perhaps a totally new look at health care should be taken, not one that just deals with the cost of insurance premiums but the underlying cost of medical care, which has spiraled up and out of control. A short course in medical economics might help lawmakers if they are really serious about re-setting the healthcare system in the U.S.
Puerto Rico is in very difficult shape. Power is out (and will be out for months), key supplies are in short order, and relief is not yet readily available. The White House has been on the sidelines for this one–is this President Trump’s Katrina?
Judge Roy Moore won the U.S. Senate primary contest in Alabama, beating a candidate, Luther Strange, endorsed by President Trump. Steve Bannon backed Roy Moore. So much for White House influence.
