21:14Now PlayingYour gas, your groceries, your rent—this war is driving all of it up right now.
Donald Trump’s war with Iran is driving a surge in prices across the U.S., from gas and food to housing and travel. Roland and the panel break down how billions in daily war spending and supply disruptions are pushing the economy toward a potential recession. The discussion connects rising costs directly to policy decisions, not coincidence. What’s unfolding is a widening economic squeeze hitting everyday Americans in real time.

🔥 Billions spent daily on war effort drive economic strain
🔥 Supply chain disruptions push costs higher across multiple sectors
