Anthony Anderson, guest hosting "Jimmy Kimmel Live," on Thursday addressed conflicting claims regarding U.S. control over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for oil transport. President Donald Trump recently asserted that the United States has "total control" over the strait.

However, Iran has disputed this claim, stating that the Strait of Hormuz is under its control and dismissing Trump's statements as "lies and falsehoods." Anderson pointed out that traffic through the strait has significantly slowed. He expressed uncertainty about whom to believe, referring to the conflicting parties as "authoritarian psychopaths or the Iranians."
