BESSENT: “We created a dollar shortage in Iran… it came to a grand culmination in December when one of the largest banks went under and there was a run on the bank, Iranian currency went into free fall, inflation exploded, people were out in the street.” A pretty big admission.

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent just BRAGGED about weaponizing the global financial system, collapsing a country's largest bank, crashing its currency 70%, and seizing private assets worldwide And they're doing it "FOR the Iranian people." 🤡 BESSENT: "The largest bank in Iran collapsed. The central bank had to monetize the debt, and that created massive inflation." "Their currency is down about 60 or 70 percent versus the U.S. dollar." "We are freezing those bank accounts FOR THE IRANIAN PEOPLE." "Same with all their villas in the south of France and all over the world. We are going to track them down." Read that again. The U.S. Treasury openly admits it can collapse any nation's banking system, melt its currency, and seize private property anywhere on Earth, and frame it as humanitarianism. Every government watching just took notes. Every saver watching just learned what fiat really is. This is the dollar weapon. This is why the world is de-dollarizing. This is why sound money exists. Sound money. Sovereignty. 🟧 🦍

🚨 JUST IN: Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent goes full economic assassin mode on Iran, he's HUNTING THEIR ASSETS DOWN worldwide "The largest Iranian bank has COLLAPSED." 🔥 "We are searching for their assets all around the world, and that money will go to the Iranian people, Americans who have been harmed by the Iranians." "The central bank had to print money, cost inflation. Now they got 180% inflation. They aren't able to pay their troops!"

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Bessent speaks on the financials of U.S.-Iran: "We started in March 2025. In December 2025, the largest bank in Iran collapsed. The central bank had to print money, and that caused inflation. They are now not able to pay their troops." He really expects us to believe they haven't been able to pay their troops for 7 months? 🤔 Writer: Michael

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent just dropped this chilling line on the Iranian regime: He will soon levy economic obliteration the likes of which has NEVER been seen in history "WATCH this space. We are going to apply measures like have never been seen in the HISTORY of economic isolation on a country!" He's going economic assassin mode 🔥🔥 "We've been going after their bank accounts, crypto wallets, assets around the world, cutting off payments into both the leadership and the regime and the government itself." "As a result...one of the largest banks or the largest bank in Iran collapsed, central bank had to print money, created huge inflation." "People say, well, Cuba lasted a long time, Venezuela lasted a long time. Venezuela immediately crumbled when we put the blockade on, so it will be a combination of economic isolation like the world has NEVER seen before, and the continued blockade in the Strait of Hormuz that will keep anything from going in or out of the Iranian port."

HEY IRANIAN REGIME - YOU BROKE BRO! Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just froze three hundred forty four million dollars in Iranian cryptocurrency. The sanctions hit multiple wallets tied to regime officials. This comes after he secured cooperation from Gulf nations. Those countries are now helping expose Iranian funds held in their banking systems. Bessent made clear that the United States will follow every dollar Tehran tries to move. He is determined to sever all financial lifelines to the regime. The pressure ramped up after Iran bombed its Gulf neighbors. That move has backfired and turned potential safe havens against the regime. Scott Bessent is proving to be tough as nails at applying maximum economic pressure on Iran.

Remember when Bessent made us BANK when we did this for Argentina and Javier Milei? He’s about to MULTIPLY THAT 🔥 BESSENT: “They are a testament to the U.S. dollar’s primacy and the strength of America’s economic shield.” “Many of these countries have pristine sovereign balance sheets and large dollar holdings – larger than many major economies with whom we maintain permanent swap facilities.” “Extending permanent swap lines can be a major first step in creating new U.S. dollar funding centers in the Gulf and Asia.” Epic moment when Bessent previously destroyed the fake news on this very topic: 🔥🔥🔥

ICYMI, US🇺🇸 Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: "Dollar dominance is essential…if you look at the new Venezuela...the dollar is going to be the centerpiece of their trade... We're seeing in the Iranian negotiations, the Iranians will be invoicing in dollars. Everything we are doing is pushing the dollar back...we're reinforcing it." The only thing the US has to reinforce dollar dominance is bullying and dropping bombs, which ironically destroys dollar dominance in the long-term. Every bomb the US drops is a message to the rest of the world to move away from the US dollar and this mafia system, not towards it.

China’s central bank has instructed major state-owned banks to cut back on U.S. dollar purchases, signaling a shift in strategy. This move comes as the U.S. dollar hits its strongest point against the yuan since 2007. As one of the world's largest holders of foreign reserves, China aims to reduce global demand for the dollar, hoping other nations follow suit or that it can diversify into other currencies. China will not tolerate a sharp decline in the yuan. The real economic war is about to begin.
