Oh lord, that's what's 0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:58.400 exciting about every brand new week, all the different possibilities 0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.520 fired and left behind. 0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:02.400 That's a rough week. 0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:05.759 That's an see week. That is really not this isn't 0:01:05.760 --> 0:01:07.920 that is that that week? How is your week? 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:09.760 Well? Not good? Not good? 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.760 And today we toil under the title of the show, 0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:17.800 meet the New Beard same as the Old Beard. Or 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:21.360 don't snooze on the Gulf of hor Moves. I'm sorry, 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:22.640 it's the Streets of hor Moves. 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:25.240 I got that wrong. Don't snooze on the streets of hormones. 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:29.720 That's right, Yes, that would have been good. So what 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:31.920 is that one about? It? The shipping lanes. 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:38.040 Yeah, ieron, excuse me, effectively close these straits of horse 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:41.520 Moves by threatening to blow up any ships that squeeze 0:01:41.600 --> 0:01:45.840 through that that narrow passage of ocean there, and and 0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:49.600 that's a huge problem for the oil industry. About twenty 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.120 percent of the oil shipped is shipped through the straits. 0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:52.440 Of horror Moves. 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:54.600 And twenty percent doesn't sound like a lot, but you 0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:56.720 know it's enough to really upset global markets. 0:01:56.800 --> 0:02:04.760 So Israel hit oil refineries in Iran in Tehran? Have 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:07.280 you seen those videos with the orange sky and the 0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:11.120 flames and everything like that tacular I'm described as apocalyptic. Yeah, 0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.160 that's like out of a movie. That is out of 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:19.480 a movie, raining oil down on people and just dark, 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:23.079 deep orange, the entire sky flames everywhere. 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:25.359 I already fight oily hair. 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:29.200 I can't imagine the horrors of that. At the same 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.600 time that Iran attempted to hit a couple of oil 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:36.280 facilities in other countries. When they announced over the weekend, hey, 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:38.079 we were sorry we bombed you. We ain't gonna bomb 0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:39.440 you anymore. 0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:41.160 Through their neighbors, but tried to hit a couple of 0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:45.160 oil installations, And so what is that gonna do to 0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:47.480 the price oil around the world and particularly in the 0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:49.520 United States? And what does that do the politics of 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:52.079 the war? Who knows? We're looking up at the TVs 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.000 three different places. They got the gas price oil price 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:58.440 story going. Yeah, further clarifying the Iranian strategy. 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:00.720 The guy who apologized, by the way, dragged off to 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:02.200 a secret prison, beaten. 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:04.480 For a while for it, and they unapologized. 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:07.960 But yeah, if they can hit enough oil refineries in 0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.480 the region and everybody becomes super terrified about oil prices 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:14.160 and the shocks to the economy, then they'll say, hey, 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:19.440 then we presumably we'll say to the new beard, Hey, 0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:21.480 what'll it take to open this strase? So her moves, 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.160 how about we all we call this off and we 0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:24.200 become friends again. 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:27.480 We're despate, we're desperate for oil, we need it well. 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:30.520 And then the other part of it is there are 0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:34.680 reports that the Trump White House is very unhappy with 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:40.640 Israel hitting oil refineries in Tehran, and there's some reports 0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:44.880 of water desalinization plants, and that this is going to 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:49.040 turn the population against us. When only you know a 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:51.200 portion of the population is on our side. Anyway, if 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:54.480 you've seen the hundreds of thousands in the street shouting 0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:57.200 death to America, I'm hoping that's a tiny percent of 0:03:57.240 --> 0:04:01.240 the population, but I don't know high country. Yeah, if 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:03.960 you turn the regular people against this because you know 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:07.400 they're capital's on fire and they can't get gas or water, 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:10.840 that's not good, even Lindsey Graham. When you've gone too far. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:14.040 For Lindsey Graham, you have gone too far. And Lindsay 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:16.720 Graham put out a tweet last night to Israel, hey 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.160 be careful about the targets you hit. 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:20.600 When you've got too far. 0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:24.000 For Lindsay Gram, you've definitely crossed the line. 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:26.440 And with all you know, due respect to my silly 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:27.039 jokes about it. 0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:30.880 Running oil, it's if you knock out the oil industry, 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:35.159 you have put them in horrifying financial straits. It will 0:04:35.160 --> 0:04:37.200 take a very very long time to get them back 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:39.680 on their feet again, and it will be a long 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:40.560 term disruption to. 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:43.520 Global oil markets. Yeah, so that did seem a little 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:44.200 too far. 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:48.840 Somebody, I guess in Israel's military said, well, they depend 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:49.960 on that oil to launch. 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:51.520 Their missiles, so we had to deny it to them. 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.520 I have a feeling Donald J and bbre are chatting 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:57.080 on the phone right now, if not already today. 0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:02.200 And then you got the price of oil going up 0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:05.080 helps Russia that they can sell oil at a higher price. 0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:09.279 China is going to get upset about this. I didn't realize. 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:10.960 So I saw in the news last night. I rewounded 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.080 to make sure I heard it correctly. China imports seventy 0:05:14.160 --> 0:05:17.600 percent of their energy. Oh yeah, they're plastic oil production. 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:19.520 Sucky. They're the opposite of us. 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:23.960 Could we could be self sustaining completely they seventy percent? Wow, 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:26.560 I'd have to tap into a handful of moose. But 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:27.919 you know, we got to do what we gotta do. 0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:30.799 Uh yeah, exactly. Alaska is big. It's fine. We'll fence 0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:31.760 off the part we're drilling. 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.360 Drill baby, drill baby, drill, will fence off the birth 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:35.000 part were redering. 0:05:35.080 --> 0:05:37.520 So anyway, I think those are some pretty interesting developments 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.560 that the United States might be telling, Hey, Israel, you're 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:41.480 going way too far. And then the idea of turning 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:44.159 the population against us in Iran, if they all decide 0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.240 we are the great Satan and we do not care 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:48.400 about the people, and now we're trying to punish them 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:50.920 as well, and they everybody's in the streets. 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.040 That's not good. That's not good yet. 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.560 And then the great question continues to be what's next. 0:05:55.680 --> 0:06:00.000 Is I experts military folks continue to look for side 0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:06.159 that the coalition is cracking. You have military units refusing orders, 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:08.640 for instance, that's a big one. Or you have the 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.680 governor of the state of what's its face declare that 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:14.960 it is ready to make peace with the United States, 0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:17.680 blah blah blah. None of those cracks have appeared yet, 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:21.000 none at least none that have filtered out to the 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:21.640 general public. 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.239 Right, and and the protesters are not back in the street. 0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:27.000 I saw one report where the saying, and you never 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:28.880 know what's true, it's not, but that the White House 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:32.039 was surprised and disappointed that the young people are not 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:34.720 back out in the street protesting at this point. 0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:37.839 So I'm not driving toward a conclusion that therefore this 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:40.120 has failed at all. It's you know, like the old 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:42.200 is practically a cliche, but it's a good one. How 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:46.080 to dictatorships get overthrown very very slowly, then all of 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.760 a sudden, you never know when that breaking point is 0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:50.920 going to occur, but it just hasn't happened yet, and 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.000 the world is anxiously awaiting it. 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:55.839 And how about we've gone from in a couple of 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.719 weeks from you kind of got to dance around the 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:02.000 idea of assassin a world leader because it's not seen 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:05.520 as cool too. Before they even elected this new guy, 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:09.120 Trump saying, well, whoever it is, he ain't gonna last long. 0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:13.920 Yeah. 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:17.200 Yeah. Israel's like, yeah, that that that that law Reagan 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:20.560 got past. That's a nice law. But we're gonna kill him. 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.760 But I mean, our president just flat out stated instead 0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:26.120 of going with the well, whoever it is, we hope 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:28.440 it's somebody that we can work with and come to 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:32.400 a diplomat. Whoever it is, they ain't gonna last long oof, 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:35.200 which you know might be a good message, didn't scared off? 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:39.720 Uh the impotent son of the Iatola again trafficking in 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:43.160 that untoward rumor that he can. Have you seen him. 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:44.720 He looks like a guy who can't get an erection. 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:46.600 He just loves that one, does you know? 0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:47.200 The look? 0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:48.640 What you know? 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:51.600 The look this is outrageous. They just look flaccid, I 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.560 mean as they walk around. Uh so, where do you 0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:58.440 suppose he's hiding because Israel said they're you know, they 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:00.760 got an eye on them. They might have Where in 0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:03.040 the hell would he be hiding, because there's been a 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.800 lot of people trying to stay undercover for the last 0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:09.120 couple of weeks and they just disploded. 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:14.160 I can't even imagine. They've got to have some sort 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:18.280 of like triple secret safe house where no cell phones 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:21.400 are allowed, and you know it's six stories underground of 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.920 some nondescript farm building out in Tehran Heights or something 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:25.160 like that. 0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:25.560 I don't know. 0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.720 Maybe he's in Punkin City, Oklahoma, and he's kind of 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.960 got a hide somewhere where you're not going to be found. 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:34.480 And the way the intelligence has been so far, I 0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:37.480 wonder if they don't have a beat on him, i'd 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:38.040 be exciting. 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:39.160 My kids and I were. 0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.160 Wondering how long he would last. We were all making bets. 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:43.760 I thought he wouldn't make it till Tuesday. 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:49.600 That's that's some macaw parenting, by way. I'm not sure 0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.200 experts would approve of that. That's a high school boys 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:52.679 sort of thing. 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:57.079 Yeah, okay, Hey, for what it's worth too, I have 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:05.920 gathered at great effort and expense I have labored long 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.679 my friends in gathering all sorts of non war stuff 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.559 that's interesting about the kitchen table issues, you know, the 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:15.679 economy business. Also, I came across this headline and I 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:18.360 do not doubt it for a second. I'm a college student. 0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:21.400 Gen Z sports betting is wrecking my friends' lives. 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:22.520 Oh I want to hear about. 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:27.599 That's how kids don't have the maturity, I guess is 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:31.880 the obvious word to resist the lure of betting gambling 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:32.440 in general. 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:34.760 And now it's been open to them.

CNN Iran 0:12:56.760 --> 0:13:01.560 names Ayatola's son, Supreme Leader as oil price source past 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:03.920 one hundred dollars a barrel, and. 0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.720 Fox I get my affairs in order if I were 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:09.200 the Ayatola some or the Iatola now. 0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:16.440 And from Fox News, Hegseeth warns more casualties expected in Operation. 0:13:16.120 --> 0:13:20.120 Epic Fury against Iram. Of course, all right, seven now 0:13:20.200 --> 0:13:25.360 another same attack in Kuwait, same base. Just one of 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.040 the guys that was really badly injured died over the weekend. 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:30.880 So at seven deads. I want to talk about the 0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:35.000 trap that the lefty media lays for the administration every 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:37.000 time they talk about this, But I don't want to 0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:39.559 degress now, Katie NBC. 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:44.520 Rapid advancements in AI have the industry and political leaders 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.440 warning of massive job displacement for white collar workers. 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:51.120 Yeah, I'm Tona Sap for quite a while, and I 0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:52.000 think it's probably true. 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:54.760 From the Wall Street Journal. 0:13:55.320 --> 0:14:02.240 For some influencers Epstein, conspiracy theories are big business. We're 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.679 talking about these these guys that have these podcasts that 0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:07.920 with the you know, talking about the baby farms. 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:10.200 And whatnot. 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.839 Oh yeah, and the cannibals and the rest of it, 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:14.520 the wild stuff. We were talking about some of the 0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:17.559 super heavyweights like Candas Owns and Tucker Charleston last week. 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:20.360 But oh, there's a huge industry, people making a lot 0:14:20.480 --> 0:14:21.640 of money on this stuff. 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:24.400 From the New York Post. 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:28.840 These AI robots are moving in with the lonely and 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:32.040 elderly New Yorkers and keeping them company. 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:36.040 Yeah, and is there anything wrong with an elderly lonely 0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:37.360 person being kept company? 0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:38.280 Not really. 0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.360 It's a little weird, though, I you know, if it's 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:44.480 preventing them from seeking out real companionship, I have a 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:47.320 problem with that. But if that real companionship is probably 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:49.520 not gonna come, no, for God's sakes, let them be 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:50.720 comforted in their old age. 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:57.800 This one, this one's a doozy USA Today McDonald's FILEO 0:14:58.000 --> 0:15:02.800 Fish may have a gross prize inside apparently it's normal. 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:07.200 Oh oh wow, you're gonna have to send us that story. 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:08.960 But will do you want me to tell you a 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:10.720 little about it? Okay? 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:12.960 So a Reddit user posted photos of a file of 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:15.800 fish that apparently had a worm inside of it. 0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:20.400 All right, and this guy who is an influencer and. 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.680 A like a nature specialist or whatever, he said, it's 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:24.720 a sign that the fish. 0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:26.360 Was caught in the wild. So this is actually a 0:15:26.440 --> 0:15:29.280 good thing. Okay. Any story that starts with a Reddit 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:32.800 user automatically suspect. 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:38.760 Yeah, New York Times a one thousand dollars dog grooming session. 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:42.920 The pet wellness industry is booming. Boy, that's part of 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:44.320 the whole haves and have nots. 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:47.920 I'd say, yeah, well, that's fine. Drain them of their money. 0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:49.240 I love it. 0:15:49.560 --> 0:15:50.440 I'm in favor of this. 0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:54.920 That dog groomer and his employees, her employees, whatever is 0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:57.520 this fine, They're probably not this super elite. 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:02.320 Drain him, dumb bastards. And finally, the. 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:06.960 Babylon b Irani and Iranian regime calls White House to 0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:09.080 ask if they can have Biden back. 0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:14.120 Marco Rubio is saying right now that Iran is trying 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:19.320 to hold the world hostage on the topic of oil. Correct, Well, 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:22.640 they're desperate, they got a shot at it, and they 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:23.480 got a shot at it. 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:27.000 Bend on what the markets do and how people react. 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:28.480 This week, we got a lot to talk about. If 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:30.560 you missed a segment, get the podcast Armstrong and Getty 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:31.360 on demand. 0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:34.280 Armstrong and Getty. 0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:39.320 Timothy chaloma is being criticized by major opera and ballet 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:42.800 organizations after he said that no one cares about those 0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:46.280 art forms. Chalomagne made the comment on a press tour 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:52.040 for his movie about Ping Pong, which looks really good. 0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:55.320 So it's up for a bunch of out America. Yeah 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:58.920 and striving and Yeah, I'm gonna have to check that out. 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:01.720 I think I'll watch that with kids. It's kind of 0:17:01.760 --> 0:17:05.640 ironic because fewer and fewer people care about movies, right say, 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:07.960 or at least going to the theater in the standard way. 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:09.879 Yeah, oscars are this next Sunday. 0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:15.720 So, as I mentioned a little bit ago, Marco Rubio, 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.640 the Secretary of State, saying Iran is trying to hold 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:19.880 the world hostage over oil. This is what the Wall 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:22.359 Street Journal is writing today, one week into President Trump's 0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:25.639 war on Iran the most severe shock to energy market 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:29.680 since the seventies, since the seventies when I was a 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:33.719 little kid and saw pictures of all yall in California 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:35.840 waiting in line, while in the Midwest it had no 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:39.480 effect on us whatsoever. Whatever was going on didn't anywhere 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:43.159 I lived anyway, Boy, it did in Chicago, absolutely rural areas. 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:47.000 It was not a thing at all, but the biggest 0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:49.840 shocks since the seventies. The disruption quickly fed into higher 0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:52.760 gasoline and diesel prices that the pump, and higher mortgage 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:57.720 rates and borrowing costs for the government. Quoting Daniel Jurgen, 0:17:57.760 --> 0:17:59.960 who wrote the famous book Oil, which I have read, 0:18:00.000 --> 0:18:01.920 I want a Pulcher Prize. We are looking at what 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:07.600 is by far the biggest disruption in world history in 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:11.320 terms of daily or oil production. It goes on for weeks, 0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:14.040 it will reverberate across the global economy. This is with 0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:16.520 all the things that have happened in the Middle East 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.920 over the last seventy five years, this is right now. 0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:25.399 The biggest disruption in oil production ever. That is something. 0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:29.960 And you know there's probably more bomb and oil refineries 0:18:30.040 --> 0:18:30.400 to come. 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:35.160 My guess will yeah, yeah, Let's hope that the effort 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:39.639 to suppress Iran's ability to do that is proceeding, because 0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:41.920 I think Donald J is going to talk to B 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:44.280 B and say hey, xnay on the knocking out the 0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:47.120 refinery area. Yeah, I'm not trying to work Tucker Carlson 0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:48.920 side of the street. But how about. 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:54.960 Reigning in Israel's ability to target Iran in addition to 0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:59.600 Iran's ability to a target oil facilities. From Lindsey Graham's 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:05.760 tweet last night, Lindsey Graham, who loves the fighting Israel, 0:19:05.840 --> 0:19:08.520 please be cautious about what targets you select. Our goal 0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:10.720 is to liberate the Iranian people in a fashion that 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:12.760 does not cripple their chance to start a new and 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:15.760 better life. The oil economy of Iran will be essential 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:19.639 to that endeavor. Well said, when Lindsey Graham is telling 0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:23.040 Israel to hold back, that is something. Anyway, back to 0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:26.200 the Wall Street Journal article about the biggest disruption in 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:30.800 world history to oil. The straits of our horn moves 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:34.040 that Joe put in our title today isn't officially closed 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:37.119 or physically blocked. It's just that people are scared to 0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:40.200 go through. There are more than a thousand ships waiting 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.600 to pass through, but their owners and sailors are scared 0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:47.840 of being attacked, and there have been attacks in recent days. 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:50.280 At least nine vessels have been attacked in one crew 0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:50.920 member dead. 0:19:51.280 --> 0:19:53.360 So they're all like waiting back, like I ain't going through, 0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:55.320 you go through now I'm going through either. 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:59.480 What experts refer to as shipping constipation. China, by the way, 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.359 has an an enormous stockpile. As I mentioned, they import 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:05.200 seventy percent of their energy, but they've planned a head 0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:09.560 they can cover two hundred days. They've got enough stocked 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.080 up for if crude price is searched toward recordize of 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:14.520 one hundred and fifty dollars a barrow, as some on 0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:18.080
