It ended with Baier replaying a 2025 interview that came back to haunt him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Wright\u2019s first humiliation came as the <i>Special Report<\/i> host grilled the61-year-old about a CNBC report this week that said ship transits through the Strait are currently at their lowest level since May. Vessel transits sat at a five-day average of around 13 on Tuesday, with the daily average sitting at around 130 vessels before Trump\u2019s war began on Feb. 28, the report noted.<\/p>\n<p>Baier showed a damning graphic indicating that just 14 vessels crossed the Strait on both Monday and Tuesday, compared to over 100 before the war, citing Kpler, a global analytics and data company that monitors ship movements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou say those numbers are not correct and I just want to talk to you straight about where your numbers are,\u201d Baier told Wright.<\/p>\n<p>Wright claimed most of the ships had turned off their transponders for safety reasons, and they were only short by \u201cfive or six million\u201d barrels of oil a day.<\/p>\n<p>Baier then asked Wright, \u201cMr. Secretary, you can concede, can\u2019t you, that the U.S. doesn\u2019t have total control over the Strait of Hormuz?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wright responded, \u201cLook, Iran is attempting to hold the world economy hostage and to terrorize their neighbors. They built up a giant arsenal, so are they causing difficulties in the region? Absolutely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cAre they causing some difficulties for their neighbors and the world economy? Absolutely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Wright\u2019s explanation, Baier admitted, \u201cI mean, that does not sound like total control,\u201d before moving on to his next question. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5326\">Twisted Border Goons Busted Using Hi-Tech Spy Gear on Exes<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Baier then confronted Wright with a chart showing the national average gas price at $4.07, a slight rise from last week\u2019s $4.06, and a major leap from July\u2019s average of $3.87.<\/p>\n<p>When asked when gas and oil prices will fall considering the \u201cback and forth\u201d between America and Iran, Wright shot back, \u201cI have no clairvoyance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Admitting that the price of gas \u201cis elevated,\u201d Wright added, \u201cThe goal of the Trump administration is to get this back down toward $3, and we absolutely will get there. The question is just the timing of that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Wright blamed Ukrainian attacks on Russia\u2019s refineries for increasing oil prices, Baier came back with more receipts, playing Wright an interview he gave to the <i>Special Repor<\/i>t from November 2025. <\/p>\n<p>In that previous interview, Baier asked Wright if Americans would experience a different energy cost in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we\u2019ll soon see a stop in the rise of electricity prices. We\u2019re going to achieve that, I think, hopefully in the first half of 2026, the stop of the rises,\u201d Wright claimed.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cDuring the Trump administration, you will see a downward trend before the administration\u2019s over.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The interview took place three months before Trump launched his war on Iran. Along with the hefty $4.07 price of gas, Baier confronted Wright with  data from last month, which also showed energy up 14.7 percent and electricity up 4.2 percent. Gasoline, meanwhile, was also up 24.6 percent and oil rose to 39.1 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Wright attempted to spin the figures, calling electricity \u201ca battleship,\u201d and claimed that wind and solar power initiatives signed off by the Biden administration \u201care mostly forces to drive up electricity prices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wright claimed \u201crestarts\u201d of nuclear power plants are underway to \u201chelp stop the rise of electricity prices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=5324\">Pentagon Pete Drops \u2018New\u2019 Motto in Jungle Flex Video<\/a><\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News host Bret Baier has grilled a top Trump goonafter wrongly predicting prices would go down.
