The March 2026 CPI report delivered inflation at 3.3% year-over-year, driven by a rising gas prices amid the escalating Iran crisis. The U.S. has now imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz, threatening global oil flows and tightening the squeeze on energy markets. Meanwhile, Israel and Lebanon are holding rare direct peace talks in Washington. At the same time, the Administration has just put agreements in place making it easier to control the Straight of Malacca. Plus, Congressman Eric Swalwell's political career collapses over four days after multiple sexual misconduct allegations surface, and that doesn't even cover the ongoing criminal investigations. We break down the economic fallout, geopolitical risks and what these developments mean for America's future in episode 71 of The Alan Sanders Show.
