Ramesh #NotGoingBackMar 13

#TreasurySecretary #ScottBessent was suddenly called into the WH #SituationRoom.

Watch him choke, stammer, and freeze immediately after that đź‘€

#US has lost control of the #StraitOfHormuz. It is NOT opening until we have "complete control of the skies" and #Iran's "Navy is sunk, literally and figuratively…"

#Bessent stammers "That was ALWAYS in our planning that there's the chance that PERHAPS…an international coalition will be escorting #oil tankers…" [emphasis mine]

Here's a clip from the longer interview where Bessent is asked about oil prices and getting called to the Situation Room. "That was always in our planning, that there's the chance that U.S Navy or perhaps an international coalition will be escorting oil tankers through." youtu.be/zq_L011kMLs

Read between the lines.

#UnitedStates had done "scenario analysis" and has known and planned "for months, for weeks" [his words, not mine] that we will NOT be able to win this war with #Iran WITHOUT an international coalition.

Lots of #financial shenanigans afoot with #DFCInsurance which they had "already anticipated… because #Lloyds does call #ForceMajeure and the policies drop away… and $20B in #insurance for tankers… will be enough to ensure a CIRCULAR insurance program"

Watch his fingers go round and round as he says "circular".

#Bessent says "I'm not keeping the running cost… but the PUBLIC number was $11B thus far."

Wonder what's the actual private number

Looks like a $20B circular #insurance #Ponzi scheme for #oil tankers that #Trump has planned to sell to shippers and skim from because he knows that Lloyds of #London will refuse to pay.

Remember the $4B insurance payout after 9/11 #terrorist attacks?

This is a long, deep story along a global #fertilizer - #famine axis.

The Architectural Fracture: How #Insurance, Not Missiles, Sealed #StraitOfHormuz…

#US response was financial rather than naval. #DFC announced a $20B reinsurance plan for #Gulf shipping and named #Chubb [check hashtag] as lead insurance partner
