President Donald Trump’s energy ambitions are running into a familiar obstacle: OPEC, led by Saudi Arabia. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre breaks down how OPEC’s actions will simultaneously help and hurt the president’s energy agenda and what to expect from his Middle East trip this week. Plus, fifteen attorneys general of Democratic-led states filed a lawsuit on Friday challenging President Donald Trump’s executive order declaring an “energy emergency.”
