But at the end of the day, we are living in a global economy and that will not insulate you completely from the future.

Patty, Trump had threatened to attack Iran's energy infrastructure.

And so far, he's put a pause on those threats.

But if we did see that, the folks that you talk to every day, the industry experts, the analysts, what are they telling you that they are concerned about in that scenario?

One guy on a speedboat with a bomb in the Strait of Hormuz could screw up all international shipping.

And we talked a lot on the show about how the Iranian regime, perhaps out of desperation, is willing to do anything it can to stay in power.

So it doesn't seem like what you're talking about is super far-fetched in terms of escalation.

The Trump administration.

Yeah.

Patty Cohen, thank you so much.

Here's what else you need to know today.

The Trump administration has sent Iran a 15-point plan for ending the war, reflecting a desire to find an off-ramp to a conflict that has deeply rattled the global economy.

President Trump said on Tuesday that negotiations to end the war had begun and that the Iranians would like to, quote, make a deal.

Iran has maintained publicly that no negotiations have been underway.

At the same time, the Pentagon has ordered about 2,000 airborne soldiers to deploy to the region.

It's unclear where exactly the paratroopers would go, but officials said they'd be within striking distance of Iran.

And a preliminary investigation into the deadly runway collision at LaGuardia Airport on Sunday suggests both technical and staffing errors were to blame.

The fire truck that collided with an Air Canada jet didn't have a transponder, which made it difficult for the airport's warning systems to track its location.

And investigators say the two air controllers on duty had more responsibilities than they might have had with more staffing.
