Darrell Issa — Vice Chair, House Foreign Affairs Committee
Congressman Darrell Issa discusses President Trump's threats against Oman and the broader U.S. strategy toward Iran. He argues the president should not rush to meet a political timeline and that Iran sanctions have failed because China and India continue buying discounted Iranian oil. Issa also raises concerns about South Korea's left-leaning government targeting U.S. companies and complicating the alliance. - Trump's Oman threat is framed as a warning against an Oman-Iran side deal over Strait of Hormuz passage fees. - Issa describes the Iran confrontation as a 47-year problem and cautions against a November political deadline. - He argues Iran sanctions only work if actually enforced, citing large Iranian oil sales to China and India. - Real enforcement could require secondary sanctions, allied pressure, and a naval or Coast Guard blockade. - He voices concern about South Korea's left-leaning government attacking U.S. companies including Meta. - The U.S. carrier USS George Washington is relieving the USS Abraham Lincoln, which has faced technical and morale issues.

Enforce Iran sanctions to curb oil exports.
Iran sanctions have not worked because enforcement has been lax, with Iran selling large volumes of discounted oil to China and India. Effective enforcement would require secondary sanctions, allied pressure, and potentially a naval or Coast Guard blockade to stop Iranian oil shipments, which would tighten Iranian oil supply.
