News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Ed Kalecki. President Trump has ordered military troops to be deployed to Portland, Oregon, and said he is authorizing the use of full force if necessary to fight crime. Here's Bloomberg's Wendy Benjaminson.
This is due to ongoing protests, some of which have turned violent at an ICE facility in Portland. These are the anti-immigration policy protests going on here.
Bloomberg's Wendy Benjaminson. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says his nation is ready to secure additional deals with the U.S. on arms deliveries, including long-range weapons, in addition to an existing $90 billion agreement. Zelensky said he was not able to share more details as he spoke with reporters in Kyiv on Saturday. Ukraine currently relies on its own long-range air capabilities, chiefly drones, to reach military and energy targets often deep inside Russian territory. The U.S. says it will cancel Colombian President Gustavo Petro's visa, saying the Andrian leader incited violence and called for American soldiers to defy orders. The U.S. Department of State said in a 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 U.S. 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 Bogota, accusing the U.S. of breaking the rules of diplomatic immunity and suggesting 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.
The blueprint aims to stem rising energy costs for Americans by doubling down on wind and solar energy, building out transmission 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. Democratic leaders are eyeing increased energy costs for consumers as a potent election year issue to use against Republicans. In Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio.
Chinese industrial profits surged after months of decline, signaling that national campaigns to tackle overcapacity and excessive competition are bearing fruit. Industrial profits in August climbed 20.4 percent from a year earlier, the first increase in four months. This, according to data released Saturday by the National Bureau of Statistics. For the first eight months of the year, they climbed 0.9 percent, beating a Bloomberg economics forecast for a 1.6 percent drop.
What recent actions did President Trump take regarding Portland?
A government shutdown could have ripple effects beyond Washington. Bloomberg's Nathan Hager has more on one potential impact.
The U.S. 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 cancellations. The group cited an Ipsos survey that found 6 in 10 Americans would cancel air trips in a shutdown. The group says that could threaten economic growth in every state. Nathan Hager, Bloomberg Radio.
