Summary
The HITO boys dive into the failed peace talks between the US and Iran headed by JD Vance. Trump responded to the failure by announcing a US blockade of the already blocked Strait of Hormuz. It seems Trump is willing to subject the American people to maximum suffering, whether it be higher gas prices or more new tariffs — there's nothing he won't do to make things more expensive for no reason. No matter which way you slice it, it seems like the world will be a worse place because of the US and Israel's unprovoked and unpopular war. Israel is also fighting a separate war in Lebanon and despite calls for ongoing negotiations, neither war seems to have an end in sight.
