President Donald Trump’s latest address to the nation on the war with Iran is already sending ripples through global energy markets, as oil prices climb and uncertainty grows around the Strait of Hormuz. POLITICO’s Ben Lefebvre and James Bikales break down what the administration’s strategy means for energy markets, global supply, and gas prices at home. Plus, senior Trump administration officials declared that all oil and gas activity on federal waters in the Gulf of Mexico is exempt from Endangered Species Act protections, and federal regulators said a natural gas export plant in Texas is free to export liquefied natural gas that’s produced during its commissioning phase.
