There was over 900 sorties from the U.S.
side attacks, probably with T-LAM and aircraft.
If you have two carriers, 200 sorties a day, that's at least
400 sorties flying off of the Ford and the Lincoln.
And then the rest are from our ground-based air assets and TLANs.
So we're going through the target list and then we'll be going back systematically
down that list going for things that we may have missed and then being on call for what we call time sensitive targets so there's no reason to celebrate there's no reason uh to be negative either we're in the war right now and we're we're going forward and i think what's really interesting is we haven't seen a lot from centcom we haven't seen a lot from the pentagon with the president either
Because this is deadly serious.
And so for the past 35 years with CNN, when we did Desert Storm and we watched Baghdad Bob tell us there was no problems, we had been in this age of information where we expect to be fed all this information.
And I think President Trump and his team recognize we're at war.
People's lives, Americans' lives are at risk and our allies' friends' lives.
are at risk and we're not going to be involved with being so concerned about running a public affairs campaign as we are more focused on taking out and defanging the Iranians and taking out their senior leadership, which is what the president said they're about to do and are doing.
Well, Steve, by just declaring that they were closing the Strait, that pretty much started the decline.
If you look at AIS, Automatic Identification System, tracking through the Strait, it was starting to go down when they made the announcement.
Then there's this attack that was in the port in Oman, right there south of Keshem Island, Bandra Bas.
So virtually now there's no traffic going through.
There's reports of 150, 200 tankers sitting well outside south of the strait waiting.
So that will spike the oil price, no question.
But the larger issue is, and my assessment is, is that, and we talk about this when we talk about China, about this impact of Xi and the purging of his generals and admirals.
And we talk about the impact on the PLA.
