“US senators grill Donald Trump's nominee for Federal Reserve chair, and the global condom industry takes a blow from supply chain issues tied to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim combines two distinct pieces of information. While multiple web search results confirm that Donald Trump's nominee for Fed chair was questioned by US senators (e.g., CNBC, NPR), there is no evidence provided in the search results regarding the global condom industry or supply chain issues tied to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Therefore, the second half of the claim cannot be corroborated.
