Another parallel market that is functioning effectively—and which will eventually challenge SWIFT—is the BRICS system; the American economic monopoly will soon come to an end, and the U.S. will be forced to adapt to the global market.
Then Trump invites Russia to the G20 as they are helping Iran
you said it out of my words
The US HAS SACTIONED
1.THE LOW HANGING fruit
2.the mid hanging fruit
3.the high hanging fruit
4. The tree. An the mulch
Now it become an embicillic theatrics.
😅
This speech is basically the equivalent of “i couldn’t beat you in a fistfight so i’m going to try and get you fired from your job”
Pathetic
At this point, government officials are insulting our intelligence. I’m personally offended. When are we the people going to do something about it!?
Expanding the sanctions regime against Iran to other countries will only further isolate the US rather than do any real damage to Iran which by now would have re-structured it's whole economy to a largely informal one due to their being used to being isolated. From 1979 onwards Iran would have been crazy to make themselves too dependant on the US informal empire.
The d day comparison is so off. D day was an offense against a war criminal who committed suicide to avoid trial. Hitler was pushed back into Germany because he invaded several countries and was a threat to the world. Iran has been TRYING to mind its own business for over 4000 years. Iran invaded no one, did not and still has not, struck America soil and not killed a US civilian in their home or child while at school.. it is Trump’s regime Vought Miller Hegseth and Besant who are the aggressors here. Trying to label it after a patriotic historical event is a rebranding trick. D day 2.0 will not go down in history books the way our grandfather's and great grandfather's did.
Unbelievable arrogance! Today with this incredulous announcement, after failing diplomatically, intelligently, militarily, morally and sensibly the US kick another 'own goal'. How will this help the world meet it's overwhelming need for peace and prosperity? Who are the lying, untrustworthy, tyrannical terrorists here?
Or Bessent…🤷♂️
…someone under 60 would be nice..
Really anyone who will finish their term before they hit SS age..no judgement upon age, but the presidental deterioration seen and recorded over the last decade has been ROUGH…😅
NO SIDES
The guy looks like he thinks Bonespures rules the world…. strange
The US tore up the nuclear agreement and then bombed them for doing something they were allowed to do, this is weak and the US is not in the right.
D-Day —the day they rug pull us before devaluing the dollar also known as “Devaluation-Day”.
See, funny thing, when you blow up your alliances, your threats sound hollow.
You will only stand alone on this …
Boycott CBS
Hahaha, declare D-Day but not today. Will start later days. 🤡
This guy ignores the trillions of dollars of investment happening right now by many foreign countries in the U.S. We are still the safest place to invest capital. Scare tactics like this are typical of MSM lying to the people, just like Hunter's laptop, COVID, Russia, Russia, Russia, and the list goes on…..
US unveils ECONOMIC D DAY SANITATION AGAINST IRAN THIS IS CBS NEWS
Another clown like his boss
A fool's parade.
😂😂😂😂😂 de co parlem!! Economic onslaught 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 siete più poveri dei poveri che fanno la guerra per voi
This is basically a forced bond buyback. Am I wrong?
Is Scott Bissent the Secretary of War?
Strait's still closed
After they heard Impeachment Charges FILED then Trump turns up pressure on IR@N. Intellectuals can easily predict Trump's movements🗽
I can’t take it no more, sounds like we are stuck in a War that Trump Started 🤮🤮🤮🤮
China already said they're not stopping trade with Iran, and Russia isn't either. So….game over.
Epstein epstein epstein epstein epstein epstein
How will this go over with Putin enlight of Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Treaty between Russia and Iran???😅
Economic D-Day 😂😂😂 usa going crazy.
All countries stop doing business with America period. Let America crumble.
Rack them up boys. Boots on ground to justify (finish the job). wait and see next year for sure. What a mess!!!
USA❤
Failed already, that was faster than Trump hiding Epstein documents.
It's always "Death to America", never death to Americans.
Today privacy the ability to be unobserved on earth has become exponentially more difficult with LIDAR!
They spent more time on the name of this latest empty threat than they did on getting into this war. There is just no way to take any of these people seriously. No intelligence just faux machismo. They think it's the 1950s and everyone just sits and listens to America. Sad.
If Trump wants to put Iranians in an economic stranglehold, why doesn't he just force them to move to America?
I’m in favor of all that, but let’s start saying 48 years. Then, suddenly jump to 60yrs, when the first Ayatollah took hostages. Then, start saying 70 years.
we are cooked with these clowns running the show

First of all China and North Korea are allies of Iranian you think there worried about threats from US
Well I thought CBS had distance itself from CNN commi News Network and all the other usual suspects. Guess not, still a toxic TDS anti-American cesspool
