- As he boarded Air Force One to travel to Dallas, President Donald Trump said he expects a “tremendous crowd” at the Republican's midterm convention ‒ and a sellout ‒ even as some GOP candidates in close midterm races are skipping the event.
“It’s sold out. Looks very big, looks very exciting, and we’re going to explain what we’ve done,” Trump said. “We’ve done things that have never been done in the first term or the second term.”
President Donald Trump also shared a new prediction for when the Iran war will end and Americans can expect gas prices to come down: immediately after the midterm elections while taking questions from the press, too.
"I think the war is going to end immediately after the election," Trump said on Sept. 9, as he prepared to depart Joint Base Andrews for the GOP's midterm convention in Dallas.

- Republicans began a two-day convention Wednesday, Sept. 9 in Dallas facing the daunting task of shaking up a midterm election favoring Democrats, who are becoming increasingly bullish about their chances of winning both the House and Senate.
Less than two months before the Nov. 3 election, Republicans are descending on the Lone Star State for the party's first-ever midterm convention in need of a jolt to fend off a potential blue wave. They're banking on President Donald Trump to ignite the MAGA base and help turn around their outlook.

- For nearly two decades, a federal judge has been hearing arguments in a lawsuit by thousands of families of 9/11 victims and survivors of the attacks who say that Saudi Arabian government officials helped the 19 Islamist jihadists from Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaida terror network who carried out the attacks.
After years of victims families and more pushing every U.S. president from George W. Bush to Donald Trump, a series of previously secret FBI reports have been released that point to a dozen or so Saudi government officials who provided logistical and financial help to the hijackers.
Why the Saudis might be involved is still a mystery. The kingdom has long been considered a U.S. ally but the Saudi government’s lawyers have also argued that the case be dismissed. However, in a dramatic ruling last August, a federal judge ruled that the case could go on. So now, lawyers on both sides are continuing to assemble evidence.
