Donald Trump is lying when he said he'd demined the Strait of Hormuz. Top U.S. allies say the U.S. Navy has not cleared mines in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump is making this up, and officials estimate that there's between 80 to 150 mines that probably remain in the Strait of Hormuz, that the Trump regime has not demined the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump is totally lying. I'm going to show you what else world leaders and former allies of the United States said in just a moment. But world leaders came out with that statement as soon as Donald Trump went on right-wing propaganda podcast. And here's what Donald Trump said about getting rid of the mines. Let's play this clip. The mines are gone. You probably saw that we put it out yesterday, all the mines. We got rid of the mines, but the Strait, it's functioning. It's a functioning Strait. Yes, every once in a while, there'll be a drone or a rocket or something shot. But it is a very functioning Strait. A lot of oil is pouring out. 10 million gallons, 10 million barrels yesterday. We're hearing more from former allies of the United States. For example, Germany announced that it is considering helping fund and protect Britain's trident nuclear deterrent as Europe looks to reduce its dependence on the United States. Berlin is explaining that it is considering helping fund and protect Britain's trident nuclear deterrent as Europe looks to reduce its dependence on the United States. The United States is also exploring deeper nuclear cooperation with Britain and France rather than developing its own weapons and rather than leaning into any view that the United States is going to provide a security umbrella. What else has occurred in the past 24 hours? Australia announcing that its reliance on U.S. made missiles is becoming a strategic vulnerability as the Iran war drains American stocks. Analysts warn deliveries of weapons such as Tomahawks could be delayed, leaving Australia exposed in a potential Indo-Pacific conflict. That was published in Politico. Well, eight hours later, this is what was published in the Washington Post. Do you think our allies, our former allies, are trying to send a message right now? U.S. weapon shortage from Iran war alarms allies confronting China. Concerns are growing in Asia and within the Pentagon that dwindling stockpiles will embolden China and North Korea and also Russia. Because I'm going to talk in a moment about what's going on with the likely invasion by Russia and Belarus opening up a northern front in the winter, which I suspect is going to happen. There has been reporting about why the CIA Director John Ratcliffe visited Russia, why he visited Moscow. It said he visited to warn Putin to stay away from NATO countries. Really nothing about Ukraine, but just stay away from the NATO countries. And what did Putin do immediately? Well, he launched a massive hack against Norway. China launched a massive hack inside the United States against the Federal Reserve. And against the Senate, the Trump regime DOJ claims they stopped the hack. But this is the same Trump regime that literally lies about everything. And in the past 12 to 24 hours since that visit by Ratcliffe to Moscow, which lasted about 90 minutes, Putin has rained down more ballistic missiles in Ukraine and basically said what Ratcliffe did means absolutely nothing to us. I digress. Let's get back here. To this Washington Post article. U.S. The massive expenditure of U.S. munitions in the Middle East is increasingly worrying Asian allies and frustrating Pentagon officials overseeing the Indo-Pacific who fear that the prolonged war with Iran could undermine U.S. readiness for a conflict with China as it continues to step up military pressure across the region. Concerns about the depleted stockpiles come as the United States canceled an amphibious land exercise with South Korea and the other drills with South Korea as Donald Trump praised his friendship with Kim Jong-un, which Kim Jong-un and Kim Jong-un's sister responded by saying we're uninterested in what Trump's saying. We don't take it seriously and we have no plans of meeting with him anytime soon. The article goes on to say, how South Korea and other U.S. partners in Asia, including Japan and Taiwan, relied on Washington or relied on Washington as the dominant supplier of major conventional weapons. But now you have Taiwanese officials saying they suspect significant delays of Patriot missiles due to the drain of supplies. Japan and South Korea feel the same way also. This is what the Trump regime has been reduced to. The umbrella in Southeast Asia and Asia by the United States is over. You want to know how bad it is? Yes, we did report, of course, that the last U.S. aircraft carrier in the Pacific, the USS George Washington, left in order to replace the USS Abraham Lincoln, which had the horrid and horrific conditions after being out on sea for what it was going to be close to like 300 days. It was a huge amount of time. Remember, they didn't have food or didn't have enough nutritional food in order to really sustain themselves. And the showers were broken and everything was horrible. By the way, one of the service members who tried to jump overboard as a result of the mental health issues arising from the horrible treatment is now being prosecuted by the despicable and disgusting Trump regime. And remember the. Trump regime consistently defame the family members of the service members of our sailors and Marines saying that they're a bunch of liars. But in addition to the George Washington, one U.S. official said more than 30 other ships were supposed to be in the Pacific and they were shifted to the Middle East during the war. So it wasn't just the George Washington that moved. The article also says that while Donald Trump's out there basically being a bootlicker for. Xi Jinping and Kim Jong Un, they're not reciprocating what Donald Trump is saying about his love of them and how close he is. They're focused on building their military capabilities. And the article points out, for example, this combination of satellite images showing China's construction work at the Antelope Reef in the South China Sea. And China is building these manmade islands, which it claims is for nonmilitary purposes. military purposes, but many military experts say it is to project strength. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has crippled former ally Qatar. Qatar's LNG exports collapsed 96%, erasing $24 billion in gas revenue as a result of Trump and Netanyahu's catastrophic war against Iran. Qatar lost an estimated $24 billion, again, let me repeat that, in LNG exports. Again, Trump regime crushing its allies.

Iran policy has reached reached pure parity, Iran's foreign ministry says. It turns to Bahrain, a country with virtually no meaningful economic exchange with Iran, to prove that its coalition is working. It then stops Iranian sports and academic exchanges that had already been effectively dead for years. It is sanctioning the already sanctioned and calling the empty space a coalition. And then Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson says, so America sent the USS Abraham Lincoln to the region to project power. After months of war and more than 200 days without a single port call, it is now heading to Thailand for crew rest and relaxation. Mission, project power. Current mission, project vacation. Original mission, project power. I'm tired, boss. I'm tired. Meanwhile, China announced that it was. Strongly behind Iran and would not agree to Besson's economic D-Day threats against China and Russia and other allies of Iran. As I've stated earlier in this video, the Trump regime's never been weaker. The U.S. has never been weaker. The U.S. threats mean nothing. Donald Trump's out there lying every damn day and everybody looks at it and goes, this guy is weak. He always backs down. The U.S. has gotten rid of its top generals and admirals. And the U.S. is out of weapons. You don't scare us anymore. You can huff and you can puff, but nobody buys what you're selling. MB Goloboff, Iran's parliament leader, thanked China. We welcome China's principal statement, rejecting illegal sanctions against Iran. And then in the past 48 hours, two more tankers have been struck by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. One about 48 hours ago, which we reported on, which was completely covered. Covered up by the Trump regime. And another one yesterday, a Kuwaiti tanker was struck in the Strait of Hormuz as well, which again was covered up by the Trump regime. Well, there you have it, everybody.
