Trump Posts Expletive-Laden Ultimatum to Iran on Truth Social, Threatens Infrastructure Strikes

President Trump posted an expletive-laden ultimatum on Truth Social demanding Iran reopen the Strait of Hormuz or face military strikes on its infrastructure. The post stated: 'Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran... Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell.' Trump set a Tuesday 8 PM ET deadline and threatened to simultaneously strike every power plant and bridge in Iran if compliance was not achieved. This marked the third extension of his ultimatum regarding the strategically crucial waterway, following previous deadlines that passed without action. The post concluded with 'Praise be to Allah,' adding to its inflammatory nature. Multiple international outlets confirmed the authenticity of the post, which represents unprecedented vulgarity and specificity in presidential threats of military action against civilian infrastructure of a sovereign nation.
