SCOTT BESSENT: This strikes right at the elite class. They won't even be able to visit their relatives in London, their lovers in Paris, or their own money in Switzerland.

This level of financial pressure on the Iranian elites should have been implemented long ago. It's about time.

The United States has launched a new "Absolute Isolation Operation" against Iran. Secretary Bessent said, "This strikes right at the elite class. They won't even be able to visit their relatives in London, their lovers in Paris, or their own money in Switzerland." It comprehensively blocks the leadership, the wealthy class, oil revenues, and freedom of movement. This escalates the "Economic Exile Operation," which began in August, to the "Absolute Isolation" level. Do it!

TRANSCRIPT

Right now, over the past few months, as of yesterday the score is  approximately 1.2 billion barrels for the US, zero for Iran.  Zero.  Iran now has no oil on the water.  They have negative cash flow.  We have cut them off.  We have cut off their Airline service to the world.  If these Iranians love their country, congratulations, you get to stay there.  And that hits the elites.  They can't go see their relatives in London, their girlfriends in Paris, or their money in Switzerland.  And they are cut off from the world.

 

TREASURY SECRETARY, SCOTT BESSENT: "I think we're going to have a strong dollar because our economy is pulling away from the rest of the world."

Yes. Deregulation and revamped taxation at every level along with investment is long term dollar positive but more importantly overwhelmingly positive for PEOPLE Not OLIGARCHS https://t.co/yXn4l2xbtV

TREASURY SECRETARY, SCOTT BESSENT: We have rediscovered at great cost what America’s first @USTreasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton taught us: the nation that depends on its adversaries for critical inputs is neither truly sovereign nor truly prosperous.

Hamilton you say? https://t.co/PomYmKy72l

We have rediscovered at great cost what America’s first

@USTreasury

Secretary Alexander Hamilton taught us: the nation that depends on its adversaries for critical inputs is neither truly sovereign nor truly prosperous.

As we approach 250 years of American independence, we would do well to remember that our founders left us more than a Republic—they bequeathed a roadmap powerful enough to sustain it for two and a half centuries and beyond.
