Like that is not a place where facial recognition technology is expected to be.
Or don't look at the storefront.
Keep your head down and your eyes closed or something like that.
Yeah, this is a game of double chicken because on the one hand, Trump thinks that, yes, these oil execs should want to come back into Venezuela because there's all this oil that they can pump.
But then on the other hand, oil execs are, I don't know if I trust you.
I don't know if it's a stable enough place for me to invest all this time and all this money into.
So maybe Exxon is playing 3D chess here, 4D chess here and saying, trying to rile up Trump and say,
have him literally say, you can't come drill there, which is what they wanted to begin with.
They didn't want to mess with it in general.
So there's a lot of kind of subtext to what's going on right now with the Venezuela situation and the oil companies that are supposed to be eager to go back in a drill there.
Moving on, Liv Golf started to challenge the PGA Tour and backed by the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fund, just lost one of its biggest names to their chief rival.
Five-time major champ Brooks Koepka is coming back to his old stomping grounds after absconding for Liv four years ago.
It's a major loss for the upstart tour who lured Brooks for its first season by giving him a five-year deal worth more than $100 million.
But in December, Koepka announced he wouldn't be returning to Liv forever.
sparking a wave of speculation as to if he'd be welcomed back to the PGA Tour despite having profited handedly for his disloyalty.
That question was answered yesterday when the PGA announced that he would, in fact, be allowed back under certain conditions, including a $5 million charitable donation.
The PGA also opened the door for other former stars to return by announcing that any major winner over the past four years could come back under the same conditions as Koepka,
a set of criteria that only applies to Bryson DeChambeau, Cam Smith, and Jon Rahm on the live circuit.
Neil, this was lighting up our group chats yesterday, and it represents a major blow for the very expensive live endeavor that the Saudis have been bankrolling.
It is very morbid, and it's also climbing the App Store charts in America as well.
