    How long before someone connects The secretary of commerce howard lutnick, to his company bgc partners ownership a oil and gas shipping broker , poten and partners . Poten had a desk specifically for Venezuelan crude, which Venezuela can not really domestically refine at scale. Their crude is mainly refined in Texas , and Louisiana . So we seize their tanker on the way to where exactly? Also do we even know if it was carrying crude to be refined to fuel or bitumen . Who owns the cargo, where is it being refines , who insured the boat , who insured the cargo. This story has too many holes in it to make sense . Whatever happened to the Epstein files ?

      It doesn't matter. Just like Microsoft does with software: they let the users test it.
