US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth claimed that Washington now controls the Strait of Hormuz and can maintain its blockade for as long as necessary, while warning Iran that further confrontation could come “the hard way.”

    Yeah dude, that’s definitely why there’s a blockade, because you’ve got absolute dominance over the strait

        But it is factual reporting of what he said.

            Okay but like, it is still worth reporting on what these people say even if they are full of shit… Like it still has material impact in the real world, in this case meaning they will continue pressing the war on Iran. Stop being childish.

                Is he lying about the US implementing an indefinite blockade?

                Obviously the US doesn’t control the Strait, but the blockade is real.

        Swap the source to a different one and it’s the same report. What’s the deal?
