🚨 JUST IN: Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent goes RUTHLESS mode on Iran, confirming economic isolation has forced 3-4 HOUR GAS LINES across the Islamic nation Bessent says the regime is now akin to a "wounded and cornered ANIMAL" 🔥 "In a country with the third highest energy resources in... the world, they now have 3-4 hour gas lines!" "The blockade and the months we've spent mapping the NODES through the payment system, we are cracking down on them, and I believe the outburst we're seeing is a result of a wounded and cornered ANIMAL!" Bessent plays no games with Iran. He recently severed even more financial institutions aiding them and MORE are on the way! Banks linked to Russia, China, Turkey that help Iran are FAFOing.show more

Cornered animals don't just retreat; they strike back harder. If energy isolation is the only tool, we're just forcing them to weaponize their remaining reserves.

honestly it’s just basic economics at play because you can't cut off a nation from the entire global banking system and expect their internal infrastructure to magically hold up forever, so those long lines were bound to happen sooner or later

The sanctions are now biting hard in IRAN—no doubt about it. The Treasury Department should keep up the pressure.

No more missiles, bombers, submarines…all we need to fight a war is @SecScottBessent

This isn’t something to brag about. We shouldn’t have even gotten involved in this mess. What ever happened to “no new wars”?

And the 2 week war stretches on 🤡🐑

They've been saying that for 6 months

The financial pressure on Iran is expanding beyond Tehran itself. Russia’s second-largest bank is now in the crosshairs over its Iran ties, showing how far the U.S. Treasury campaign is reaching.

Están desesperados,le está subiendo la gasolina en EE.UU. ...

250 years ago, 🇺🇸 was born because Patriots paid in blood to overthrow tyranny imposed by a foreign power. Unless their people are willing to rise and sacrifice everything for freedom, they will never truly possess it. Freedom is never free; it survives only when people are willing to pay its price.

$4.33 regular. ~$65 for 15 gallons. Diesel at a record $6.27 — that’s freight and food before it hits your cart. Iran’s queues don’t fill our tanks. Hormuz and Saudi East-West do. Bessent’s squeeze is biting inside Iran (hours-long lines in places; “3–4hr nationwide” is his talking point). Kitchen-table relief only when oil risk comes off — watch pipeline restart and Hormuz traffic, not the soundbite. Ready to go live wherever you post. Say the platform if you want me to push it.

Bragging about turning a regime into a 'cornered animal' isn't the flex he thinks it is. Cornered animals act recklessly. Hope there's an actual endgame here

They refuse to finish off Iran for some unknown reason

lol did we win the war AGAIN?

Words words words that do NOTHING

Economic pressure is clearly hitting the regime where it hurts. Iran has enormous energy resources—seeing people face hours-long fuel lines shows just how badly sanctions and financial isolation can disrupt the system.

Economic pressure can be a powerful tool when it is targeted, lawful, and clearly communicated. Recent U.S. actions against Iran-linked financial networks show that Treasury is focused on using financial leverage to advance American policy goals. Strong policy, clear enforcement, and transparency matter. 🇺🇸 #America #EconomicSecurity #NationalSecurity #Treasury

No funciona, no funciona, ya lo vieron con Venezuela, con Cuba, con Rusia, las sanciones no funcionan con las dictaduras.

I am watching Al Green trying to show his reading comprehension skills

Economic pressure can hit hard, but the real measure is whether it changes the regime’s behavior without unnecessarily punishing ordinary Iranians.

That reminds me of the United States in the 70s.
