Mike Waltz: ‘You Are Either Against Us or You’re With Us’ as Trump Administration Targets Iran’s Economic Lifelines

‘People need to understand Iran’s revolutionary guard controls 50% of Iran’s overall economy’

RUSH EXCERPT:

WALTZ: "Thanks Lara and just to set the stage for really what you’re asking here, people need to understand Iran’s revolutionary guard controls 50% of Iran’s overall economy. They don’t care about the Iranian people. They massacred 40,000 just a few months ago for daring to protest and they are still executing people right now as we speak, young students just trying to speak up for a better life. What they do care about his regime control and their money. That’s what President Trump and Scott Bessent’s economic D-day is going after. Their currency is tanking, inflation is out of control there. Their foreign currency reserves are gone. There are runs on their banks. The message that secretary bessent and I was sent here the U.N. is you are either against us or you’re with us. You don’t want to be siding with Iran right now and oh by the way that’s not just U.S. message. There’ve been dozens of U.N. Security Council resolutions saying Iran cannot have a nuke and cannot have ballistic missile to terrorize the world. We had last year snapback sanctions where the rest of the world got back on board with our sanction regime.
