They've been doing both, hence my post on what the Chevron guy said last week. Trump only talked about it because the New York Times reported on it because of course they did.
Please provide links. The net sifter says a Chevron exec commented about their ships being attacked, or trapped, in the Gulf: There are no reports or evidence suggesting that a Chevron executive or the U.S. is smuggling oil out of the Persian Gulf. Rather, the context likely stems from a highly publicized June 2026 announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump, who disclosed that the U.S. military has been executing clandestine operations to escort commercial oil tankers out of the heavily blockaded region wrt the NYT, the net sifter says: There is no New York Times report about the United States smuggling oil out of the Persian Gulf. Instead, New York Times reporting focuses on the United States seizing foreign tankers carrying illicit oil out of the Middle East and imposing strict naval blockades to choke off Iranian oil exports
Please provide credible links supporting your assertion. Otherwise, Trump's statements are, again, blowing a secret operation, to show people what a big shot he is, which is what he was reportedly doing with the classified files he had at his Florida estate.
