As gas prices reach a new high, Anna and Anthony dig into what's happening in the Strait of Hormuz, a key trading route controlled by Iran. Trump seems to be getting squeezed by his own foreign policies and the calling on countries like China and Japan to 'help out'. Are we at a tipping point in this war?
