The U.S. military is currently attempting to guide ships out of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's blockade on this crucial waterway has wreaked havoc on the global oil market, now faced with what energy expert Jason Bordoff calls "the largest supply disruption we've ever seen in history." In his recent Foreign Affairs article, Bordoff details how governments are reassessing their reliance on global energy markets, and why the full impact of this crisis hasn't hit America — yet. Bordoff joins the show to discuss.
