IMG_8437.JPG: Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) with a profile picture showing Trump's face overlaid with an American flag pattern. The post reads: 'All of those countries that can't get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You'll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won't be there to help you anymore, just like you weren't there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil! President DJT' White background with black text.

Below in bold white italic text: 'This is misleading.' Lower section details UK military assistance including defensive air operations across Jordan, Qatar, Iraq, and Cyprus; base access for US bombers at RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia; deployment of Ukrainian counter-UAS operators to the Gulf; additional naval and air assets. Notes a YouGov poll showed 58% of Britons opposed further involvement yet UK government still expanded its role. States characterizing this as 'not being there' erases documented allied contributions. Red border frames the card.

Below in bold white italic text: 'This is misleading.' Lower section explains US produces approximately 13.6 million barrels per day of crude (a record) but remains a net importer of crude oil (net imports approximately 2.2 million barrels per day in 2025), US refineries are built for heavy Middle Eastern crude not domestic light sweet crude, US gas prices hit $4/gallon on March 31, 2026 (up 35% in one month), Kpler notes US Gulf Coast jet fuel exports rarely exceed 1 million tonnes/month and cannot offset the 300,000 barrels per day European shortfall, and 'We have plenty' misrepresents structural constraints and domestic pain. Red border frames the card.
fact-check-181.png: Fact-check card with dark background and red banner containing white text reading 'Claim: "The United Kingdom refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran."' with five white stars above. Below in bold white italic text: 'This is misleading.' Lower section explains the UK declined offensive strikes but has been significantly involved: PM Starmer initially denied US request to use UK bases then on March 1 authorized their use for specific and limited defensive purposes, RAF F-35s shot down Iranian drones over Jordan, Typhoons intercepted drones targeting Qatar, UK forces intercepted drones in Iraqi airspace, UK bases at RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia are hosting US bombers, and calling this 'refusing to get involved' erases substantial military contribution. Red border frames the card.
Trump told the UK to "go get your own oil" while we pay $4/gal because of HIS war. We fact-checked every claim. The UK is literally shooting down drones and hosting our bombers. We're a net oil importer. Iran still controls the Strait. #IranWar #FactCheck #GodlessEngineer
