Donald J. Trump Truth Social Post 01:26 PM EST 03.20.26 Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP
“Iran’s targeting of Diego Garcia, ~4,000 kilometers from Iran, implies its missiles have a greater range than Tehran has previously acknowledged. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said last month that Iran has deliberately limited the range of its missiles to 2,000 kilometers.” 🤷♂️
The urgency was Iran having intermediate ballistic missiles that could reach Paris, and was working to build missiles that could reach the US Their stockpile was growing rapidly so as to overwhelm any missile defence The opportunity is that Iran was particularly vulnerable now
This is the full debate between USS Liberty survivor Phil Tourney and myself. I recommend EVERYONE watch it. To my knowledge this is the only time in history the @usslibertyvets have participated in a debate and had their narrative challenged.
“I hate my opponent. And I don’t want the best for them,” Trump said last year at Charlie Kirk’s funeral That said, here’s his statement on the death of the Russiagate special counsel

Basically every major development in the Iran War has vindicated Trump’s decision to strike. 1) Overwhelming current disparity in traditional military capability = now is a good time to strike, we can destroy their capabilities with limited losses of personnel/material 2) Iran flings ballistics and drones at a nearly a dozen non-combatant neighbors = they are crazy and can’t be trusted with nukes 3) Iran opens negotiations with Witkoff with “we have enough 60% enriched material for 11 bombs and we will not give you anything at the negotiating table that you couldn’t achieve militarily” = diplomacy would not have solved the problem 4) Iran fires ballistics at Diego Garcia = they were not far from having ICBMs that could hit the Eastern Seaboard The case for hitting Iran is STRONGER than it was for ISIS!
Iran is the head of the snake for global terrorism, and through President Trump’s Operation Epic Fury, we are winning this critical fight at an even faster pace than anticipated. In response to Iran’s terrorist attacks against global energy infrastructure, the Trump Administration will continue to deploy America’s economic and military might to maximize the flow of energy to the world, strengthen global supply, and seek to ensure market stability. Today, the Department of the Treasury is issuing a narrowly tailored, short-term authorization permitting the sale of Iranian oil currently stranded at sea. At present, sanctioned Iranian oil is being hoarded by China on the cheap. By temporarily unlocking this existing supply for the world, the United States will quickly bring approximately 140 million barrels of oil to global markets, expanding the amount of worldwide energy and helping to relieve the temporary pressures on supply caused by Iran. In essence, we will be using the Iranian barrels against Tehran to keep the price down as we continue Operation Epic Fury. This temporary, short-term authorization is strictly limited to oil that is already in transit and does not allow new purchases or production. Further, Iran will have difficulty accessing any revenue generated and the United States will continue to maintain maximum pressure on Iran and its ability to access the international financial system. So far, the Trump Administration has been working to bring around 440 million additional barrels of oil to the global market, undercutting Iran’s ability to leverage its disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump’s pro-energy agenda has driven U.S. oil and gas production to record levels, strengthening energy security and lowering fuel costs. Any short-term disruption now will ultimately translate into longer-term economic gains for Americans – because there is no prosperity without security.
