The mob boss gets a cut of the extorted tolls [View all]
— George Conway âš–ï¸ðŸ‡ºðŸ‡¸ (@gtconway.bsky.social) 2026-04-08T13:01:05.848Z
The insert says Jonathan Karl asked 🍊 if he's okay with Iran charging a toll on ships going through the Strait of Hormuz. His response is that we are going to do it as a "joint venture."
It's a shakedown of the world, with 🍊 collecting his share. Wonder if that money will go with Venezuelan oil money in unmonitored accounts. 🍊 's slush fund.
