    In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as fuel prices hit $4.39 in North Texas and higher in other states, we continue to focus on affordability as tensions in the Strait of Hormuz continue to threaten the fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday the U.S. will take the issue of Iran's attacks on commercial shipping to the United Nations.

Also audio from Marco Rubio on the unconstitutionality of the War Powers Act and from journalist Mark Halperin on where we stand with Iran, a federal law mandating ‘kill switches’ in vehicles remains intact and various audio from California Gubernatorial candidates blaming high prices in their state on President Trump.
