IRAN WAR UPDATE & WHY THE PRICE OF OIL KEEPS DROPPING
The media has not been covering this.
According to the U.S. CENTRAL COMMAND, approximately 1,000 commercial vessels have crossed through the Strait of Hormuz in the last two months.
Iran has not been able to do anything about it. And commercial traffic through the Strait is slowly increasing.
Meanwhile, the U.S. blockade on Iran's use Strait of Hormuz is costing the Iran Regime $500 MILLION per day. The Regime's entire annual budget is about $56 BILLION. The Regime can no longer pay its soldiers or security police.
Mass protests against the Regime are now starting up again in cities across Iran, as the people are now sensing the Regime can's do much about this.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has announced that the $24 BILLION in Iranian assets that we have frozen will be used to reimburse and compensate countries in the region Iran keeps hitting with its missiles and drones.
The damage Iran has done to airports, power grids, buildings, and infrastructure, as well as casualties inflicted by Iran in the region, will be billed to Iran's account.
Iran has been saying any deal Iran strikes with the U.S. hinges on the U.S. unfreezing $24 BILLION in Iran assets.
Welp, so much for that idea. This $24 BILLION will be used to compensate Iran's victims in the region.
There is no reason for the U.S. to negotiate anymore with Iran's Regime.
It's quite cheap for the U.S. Navy to keep patrolling the Strait of Hormuz, escorting ships in and out. Our Navy has to be somewhere. Might as well be there, conducting occasional target practice on whatever is left of Iran's military capabilities.
No one fears the Iran Regime anymore. It's proven itself to be a toothless tiger.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Arab World has joined with the United States and Israel in an alliance against the Iran Regime, which is now completely isolated.
That's pretty amazing. Thanks to President Trump, the rest of the Arab world is now allied with Israel.
Who would have thought that possible?
We should allow Israel to do whatever it wants to do to the Iran Regime. We should also continue arming the Kurds and pro-freedom groups inside Iran.
When Epic Fury started, the prediction was that oil would rise above $200 per barrel.
This has not happened. Oil is around $90 a barrel and will continue to drop.
The reason we have not seen anything close to $200 a barrel is the United States has ramped up its oil production.
Thanks to President Trump, the United States is a net oil and energy exporter.
With Trump's arrest of Venezuela's Communist dictator Nicolas Maduro, the United States also now has an oil production partnership with the new government of Venezuela, which as the world's largest oil reserves.
Oil production by Venezuela will only continue to increase.
Trump has also chased China out of Panama. China is no longer running the Panama Canal. We are.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Kuwait are increasing their pipeline capacity to bypass the Strait of Hormuz, further rendering Iran irrelevant.
Only about 20% of Iran's people are practicing Muslims. The strange theocratic ideology that has been imposed on the Iranian people for 47 years is an alien minority force.
We can just continue to watch the Iran Regime implode financially under this economic pressure we've imposed.
Eventually, the IRGC leadership and Mullahs will receive the Gaddafi treatment.
🚨Trump Goes SCORCHED EARTH on California’s Elections, then WALKS OFF Interview Leaving Kristen Welker HUMILIATED
“It was a dirty election and it’s happening again in California… Do you think it's appropriate that they have an election and five days later they're nowhere close to picking a winner!? They're crooked — just like you're crooked.”
“I’ve given you enough time”
*Walks off*
Welker: “We travelled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview”
*Blames the rain*
Two days after Henry died Hampshire Police secretly recorded Digwa in a police van speaking Punjabi to his brother. Digwa admitted stabbing Henry. Discussed claiming self defence. Made zero mention of racial abuse. Not one word.
Hampshire Police had that tape.
They knew Digwa was lying about the racist attack. They had the evidence. They had his own words and then tried to smear Henry as the aggressor anyway.
Three days after his death their statement read “it was reported two men had been assaulted by an unknown man.” Henry was the unknown man. The boy bleeding out on the street. They flipped it.
Family complained. Statement changed. Then police told the family their NEXT update would again infer Henry was the initial aggressor. His family had to fight them a second time. While grieving their murdered son.
Then during the trial Hampshire tried to issue a statement telling the public to stop talking about it online. Calling it disinformation. The CPS had to step in. Told them they were about to collapse their own murder case.
This is the force that handcuffed a dying boy. Missed the murder weapon twice. Had a secret tape proving the killer lied. And still tried to bury Henry's name.
That's not incompetence. That's a machine protecting itself. At the expense of a dead boy's reputation and three officers are still on active duty. Not suspended. Treated as witnesses. To their own actions.
Hampshire Police didn't just fail Henry on that street. They kept failing him for six months after he died.

The Reflecting Pool is reflecting, and it is absolutely SPECTACULAR. You can see the Washington Monument, the flags at the base, the U.S. Capitol and the flags at the WWII Memorial prominently. WOW. Not even full and proven it can be done. Thank you @POTUS and @SecretaryBurgum 🇺🇸
The most insane thing about Pratt is that he never ran as a republican, he never promoted himself as a republican. He didn't run on lower taxes or any other R platform.
The dude literally ran on getting homeless people sober, and taking people's tax dollars and putting them directly to public services and not wasteful NGOs.
Here’s one you won’t hear about.
17-year-old Tyson Goodsell is dead after he was murdered and robbed by two men who were out on conditional release for charges of first-degree attempted murder and first-degree aggravated robbery.
We live in a fucking clown world.
Austin Metcalf was a straight A student. He was a star athlete. He was a leader. He was loved by everyone.
He was a Christian. He was a son. He was a brother. He was a friend. He was a teammate.
His life was callously and senselessly taken from this world at 17 years old, bleeding to death in his brother's arms.
This country cannot move forward until his killer is brought to justice.
Hello Mr. Hunter Biden,
You're getting six-digit likes on every post lately. I don't have any hope to ratio you or whatever through traditional "Hello" means.
But for those uninitiated, those who are captivated by your fake-humble persona obviously PR-engineered to capture unsuspecting disaffected Republicans:
You are not some humility, witty guy turning over a new leaf. You are the ultimate proof of nepotism, everything that the so-called "Epstein Class" is supposed to represent.
Let me explain - off the top of my head.
You were a board member of USGLC. U.S. Global Leadership Coalition. The most powerful NGO that nobody's ever heard of. Last year, I documented in several threads, how Liz Schrayer, USGLC lead, took credit for ramming through a 90 billion dollar bill for Ukraine in 2024, even as @mattvanswol demonstrated that Western North Carolina got zero help in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene because FEMA threw up their hands and said they ran out of funds.
USGLC, arguably, is the most powerful NGO that nobody has ever heard of. It includes a bunch of corporations, a bunch of nonprofit leads, and ... for some magical reason, I documented, extensively, linked, that Liz Schrayer started pursuing you in 2012. During the Obama years, when you were Biden's son. Are you a former Secretary of State? No. Are you a CEO of a Fortune 500 company? No. That puts you below the average USGLC board member, by a good tier.
So what DID get you on USGLC? The only reason: that you were the son of a sitting Vice President known for corruption, and you yourself were known for corruption.
You are not "folksy." You are the worst of the worst of the elite. Most of the elite, at least, get their credentials through Georgetown/George Washington/Harvard Kennedy. You got yours purely on nepotism. Any photographs you have of yourself at motels is proof that you are so incompetent that you waste all your money, not that you come from humble beginnings. Because others like @MarcoPolo501c3 have thoroughly documented that you benefited a great deal from your nepotism.
You even tried to bait those in with saying you prefer to keep immigration "legal" - but we all know the trap that keeps illegal immgrants here: outlaw deportations, and make every immigrant case "asylum", and magically, everyone who might've been here illegally a few years ago is legal.
You may get 175K likes on your semi-subverting, PR-designed photographs. But those of us who know, know you're fake.
