00:50gas at the moment is in Hong Kong.
00:52This is going to get worse. Since Donald Trump's war started, the average price of gas has jumped more than

01:03And gas always goes up by the same amount. According to AAA, gas prices shot up nine cents overnight.
01:11That's the largest single day increase since the Iran ceasefire was announced, not the war, the ceasefire.
