15:51Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump claimed on Truth Social Wednesday that the U.S. has "total control" of the Strait of Hormuz in the Middle East.
"The U.S.A. has total control over over the Strait of Hormuz. I THINK WE WILL KEEP IT! Our Naval Blockade is being called, by everyone, “A WALL OF STEEL,” and there is nothing Iran can do about it. They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, their remaining soldiers are unpaid, the IRGC is decimated and fleeing, and their “Leadership” is uncertain, at best! They have No Money - Their country is “shot.” All they have is FAKE NEWS and 300% INFLATION, and getting worse! Iran is all talk and no action, the Bully of the Middle East No Longer. Praise be to Allah! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
Tufts University Professor Alon Burstein of the Israel-Palestine Report joins LiveNOW's Austin Westfall to discuss where talks stand between the U.S. and Iran, the U.S. naval blockade and more.
