Epic Fury, as the president notified Congress, we’re done with that stage of it,” he told reporters, declaring that the U.S. had already achieved its objectives.   “We’re now on to this Project Freedom,” he said referring to the U.S. effort to free up ships trapped by Iran’s chokehold of the strait, which he called a “defensive” mission. #iran #marcorubio #ceasefire #cspan Wed, 06 May 2026 17:44:31 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://motube.smithandtech.com https://motube.smithandtech.com/lazy-static/avatars/933c9118-81c8-4e69-a82c-512c3a13a060.jpg https://motube.smithandtech.com/videos/watch/8fe95bf2-cea5-4465-94e7-5a2d6538a618 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://motube.smithandtech.com/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
