Trump Told Congress the Iran War Is 'TERMINATED' — But the Strait Has 154 Ships Instead of 3,000

Let me explain this simply. Before this war — 3,000 ships passed through the Strait of Hormuz every single month. In March 2026 — it was 154. Gas was $2.98 before the war. Today it is $4.39. And on Friday — Trump wrote a letter to Congress with one word. "TERMINATED." As in — the war is over. But here is the problem. The US Navy is STILL blocking Iranian ships. Iran is STILL blocking the Strait. 154 ships are STILL all that's getting through. Gas is STILL $4.39 and rising. Iran STILL sent a 14-point peace proposal — because you don't send proposals if the war is already over. Here is Trump's exact letter to Congress — verified by PBS, AP, CNBC, Fox News, CBS News: "The hostilities that began on February 28, 2026, have terminated." Here is what Republican Senator Susan Collins said in response: "That deadline is not a suggestion. It is a requirement." Here is what Democratic Senator Blumenthal said: "There's no pause button in the Constitution or the War Powers Act. The blockade alone is a continuing act of war." Here is what Iran did: Sent a 14-point peace proposal. Through Pakistan. To American officials. Because the war is not over. Three numbers tell the whole story: 3,000 — ships through Hormuz before the war. 154 — ships through Hormuz in March. $4.39 — your gas price today. And Trump himself mentioned the worst case — the Suez Canal was closed for EIGHT YEARS between 1967 and 1975. That is the word the President used. Eight years. We explained everything in plain English. No jargon. No complexity. So every American understands exactly what is happening and exactly why it is hitting their wallet. ——————————————————————— 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for daily verified coverage explained in plain English 👍 LIKE if this finally made the Iran war make sense to you 💬 COMMENT: TERMINATED or NOT TERMINATED?
