Jake Braun, cybersecurity expert who led White House cyber roles, Paul Poast, political scientist focused on warfare and alliances, and Ryan Kellogg, energy economist on oil markets, discuss Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, soaring oil supply shocks, cyber and AI-enabled attacks, coalition reluctance among European and Gulf powers, and shifting strategic goals and great-power dynamics.

In this conversation, Ryan Kellogg, the Ralph and Mary Otis Isham Professor at the Harris School of Public Policy and an expert in energy policy, dives into the implications of Trump's declared "national energy emergency." He discusses the potential impact of tariffs on Canadian oil and the future of fuel efficiency standards. Kellogg explores how these actions might influence gas prices, renewable energy adoption, and the U.S. transition to electric vehicles, all while reflecting on the significance of recent tax credits in shaping the energy landscape.
