Announces Admiral Cooper's briefing on Operation Epic Fury and the ongoing blockade. Delivers a direct threat to Iran's military leadership, emphasizing U.S. military superiority and Iran's inability to rebuild its defense industry.

States the U.S. Navy controls the Strait of Hormuz with less than 10% of its power, framing Iranian threats as piracy. Presents Iran with a choice: a prosperous deal or continued blockade and potential destruction of its energy industry.

Mentions concurrent 'Operation Economic Fury' by the Treasury to maximize economic pressure.

Criticizes the American press for negative coverage and contrasts it with military successes like recruiting numbers. Urges troops to stay focused.

Details the implementation of the blockade against all ships to/from Iranian ports, not the Strait itself. Notes enforcement in territorial and international waters, and pursuit of 'dark fleet' oil tankers globally.

Describes the tactical execution over 24+ hours, with 13 ships turning back and no boardings required. Praises the capabilities and crew of U.S. destroyers.

In response to a question about international force participation, states that aside from regional allies, other nations have only talked, not acted. Argues that Asia and Europe rely on the Strait, not the U.S., and calls for allies to invest in their own capabilities.

Expresses skepticism that an international force will materialize, framing it as another example of the U.S. doing the 'heavy lifting.'
