President Trump gives a fresh update on the Iran conflict as tensions spike around the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most critical waterways in the world. Joe Pags cuts through the confusing headlines and explains what’s really happening—and why it’s so hard to know the truth with all the misinformation flying around. Here’s the big deal: the Strait of Hormuz carries about 20% of the world’s oil supply, making it one of the most important energy chokepoints on Earth. If shipping through the strait slows or stops, global energy markets—and gas prices—can spike almost immediately. Pags walks through what the administration is saying, what Iran is threatening, and why the media coverage has been all over the place. Is the strait actually closed? Is it just disruption? And what happens next if this standoff continues? It’s a clear, no-nonsense breakdown of one of the biggest global stories right now.
