## Resource

Trump blasts media for ignoring his claim of a historic naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, calling it a “steel wall” crushing Iran’s economy. New data reveals Iran’s oil exports plummeted to near zero in May—their lowest in a decade—cutting off their main revenue stream. Since April 13th, when the blockade began after Iran disrupted shipping, exports dropped 97% from February levels, with revenues falling below $200 million. Only a handful of tankers slipped through to China, proving the blockade is working as intended on a vital global oil chokepoint.
