White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt claims America’s blockade is costing Iran $500 million a day. “Operation Economic Fury continues,” Ms Leavitt said. “We are completely strangling their economy through this blockade. “They’re losing $500 million a day. “They can’t move oil in and out, they can’t even pay their own people as a result of the economic leverage that President Trump has inflicted on them.”
