Wow! UAE oil chief Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber: 'The Strait of Hormuz is not open'

Holy cow! How is conducting a "freedom-of-navigation mission" considered a success when everyone had freedom of Navigation before trump started that war with Iran?!?

President Donald Trump said Saturday that the United States had started “clearing out” the Strait of Hormuz, just as the first direct peace talks between Iran and the U.S. began in Pakistan. “We’re now starting the process of clearing out the Strait of Hormuz as a favor to Countries all over the World, including China, Japan, South Korea, France, Germany, and many others,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. In the same post, he said that Iran was “losing big” and repeated a phrase that appeared to mock Islam.

All the unethical, illegal things trump is doing is catching up to him. And now trump has given Iran control of the Straights of Hormuz which has made this issue of Iran worse than what it was before the war. Threatening and insulting our allies instead of building a consensus, Threatening and insulting NATO instead of building a consensus, giving Israel full reign in their attacks which is causing the average taxpayer to not only question the current administration, but to question our own military. The uptick is part of a larger pattern of military members seeking ways to end their service, according to NPR interviews with several organizations like Galvin's and military members who deal directly with these issues.

Under anti-vaccine Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., scientists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been blocked from publishing a scientifically vetted study finding significant health benefits from this season’s COVID-19 vaccines, according to reporting by The Washington Post.
