AXIOS (Marc Caputo) - Scoop: U.S. blockade has cost Iran $4.8 billion, Pentagon says

The Defense Department estimates Iran has been denied nearly $5 billion in oil revenue because of the U.S. blockade in the Gulf of Oman, causing unprecedented pressure on Tehran's government.

La Shawn Ford, who won the Democratic nomination for Illinois' 7th House District, was one of several Black Caucus members who pushed back against Gov. JB…
