Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. The Eric Erickson show across the nation from Atlanta, Georgia. The phone number is 877-9773-7-4-25 if you want to be a part of the program. Well, you know, I'm kind of glad Emmanuel Macron opened his mouth because we can get away from the Dobbs case.

Well, I mean, we got other stuff.

The Supreme Court, by the way, I need to give you a preview alert for tomorrow.

Tomorrow, if you thought the meltdown over Dobbs was bad, wait until you see what the Supreme Court does tomorrow.

I'll explain why in the second hour it's probably as significant. But I've got to begin with

Emmanuel Macron, the president of France. This is actually more important than the Dobbs situation.

And this also kind of highlights why the Democrats are going to have trouble in November, regardless of the Dobbs case, and regardless of your views on the Dobbs case.

I mean, if you watch CNN this morning, they're having a real hard time jockeying between Dobbs and January 6th, and then they're having to do apologies for the gas prices, particularly in light of what happened with the Manuel Macron.

Now, I don't want you to take my word for it. I want you to go to CNBC. This is the audio.

Oil prices are back on the rise after sliding for a few days, and it might be on the back of this.

By the way, this was yesterday later in the day at the G7 meetings in Germany. We're going to

show you the video and some of the sound.

French President Emmanuel Macron kind of rushing in and actually sort of interrupting President Biden.

He was with Jake Sullivan, the National Security Advisor. And Macron sort of jumping in,

all by the way in front of reporter cameras and hot microphones, and maybe that wasn't an accident.

And Macron is saying that the Saudis and the UAE have little to no spare capacity to increase oil production.

Watch and listen.

Two since one, I'm at the maximum maximum. This is my depat for me.

Second, calling to us that the Saudis can increase a little bit, but one 150 or a little bit more,

and they don't have huge capacities at this, before six months time.

So, Becky, if our viewers and listeners can't hear that I understand,

what Macron was saying is that the Saudis could maybe raise production by 150 to 170,000 barrels a day.
