...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...said that "more than 100 MILLION Barrels of Oil" successfully went through the Strait of Hormuz as a result of a "secret mission" that the United States Military conducted in order to allow ships to get through the critical waterway for cargo.
"Last month, I directed our Great U.S. Military to execute a secret mission to support Oil Tankers and other Commercial Ships through the Strait of Hormuz," Trump posted to Truth Social on Wednesday afternoon.
"Today, I am pleased to announce that this effort has resulted in more than 100 MILLION Barrels of Oil making its way through the Strait, and into the Open Market," he continued.
"More than 200 Commercial Ships have safely traveled through the Strait. This wildly successful effort is because the UNITED STATES of AMERICA CONTROLS the Strait of Hormuz — NOT Iran. Their military is defeated, and their economy is lost. It’s over for Iran! Thank you for your attention to this matter," he continued.
The president said in the Oval Office this morning that the United States "took out" just under two dozen ships "late at night, with no lights, because they don't have any radar, because we blasted the crap out of it."
"You know, I can say it now, something you didn't know. Do you know we've been taking out millions of barrels of oil?" he said, Townhall previously reported.
