All the media got the same marching orders, keep saying 'Trump invoked a centuries old law' or 'Trump is using an obscure law from the 18th century' (the Alien Enemies Act of 1798):

Almost everyone here has him on ignore.
Maybe he is telling the truth, just look at this DOGE graveyard:
Wesley Clark is not a reliable source. Didn’t Iran kidnap Americans? The invasion of Iran has not happened yet, so that is a prediction. I guarantee you, Trump will not invade Iran. Also, it has been 24 years since 9/11.

That price is but a shell of its former self.
I think many have grown tired of Massie's sh-t. These attacks are easily defensible. And long overdue.
"This is not some third party war that we have no business sticking our noses into.
This is defending a major trade route that has a significant and direct impact on the US economy, a trade route that has already seen extensive attacks on US and allied shipping.
Clearing this out is an essential task and pretty much why we have a Navy.
Please chill."
One segment from Trump's statement really stands out and gives a clear justification for this action:
"Joe Biden's response was pathetically weak. So the unrestrained Houthis just kept going. It has been over a year since a U.S. flagged sailed safely through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea or the Gulf of Aden. The last American Warship to go through the Red Sea, four months ago, was attacked over a dozen times...these relentless attacks have cost the U.S. and World economy BILLIONS of Dollars, while, at the same time putting innocent lives at risk....
...The Houthis have choked off shipping off in one of the most important Waterways of the World, grinding vast swaths of Global Commerce to a halt, and attacking the core principle of Freedom of Navigation upon which International Trade and Commerce depends....
No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval from freeing sailing the Waterways of the World"

One way to address the Houthi issue might've been to actually implement the Gaza ceasefire everyone was falling over themselves to give Trump "credit" for. Instead, Israel undermines the ceasefire with US backing by blocking supplies to Gaza, the Houthis reciprocate by resuming attacks on Israel, and now Trump uses this as a pretext to launch yet another bombing campaign without congressional authorization, effectively continuing Biden's desultory Yemen policy -- but framing it as though he's going to prove how much Tougher he is than Biden, which of course the partisan dopes eagerly lap up

So which country is going to bow their neck to the U.S. over some houthi terrorist scumbags?
Did he?
It didn't turn into war in 2018 when President Trump bombed 200 mercs representing Russia, in Syria.
Houthis have no means with which to wage war. The are only capable of terror.
If they are alive, I suppose.
Yep. Told my wife that I was going to Bass Pro Shop in OKC this coming week. She asked me to wait until tomorrow to see if she can ask her boss for Friday off and we can go together. She likes a restaurant and an Asian Market up there so; I know my Bass Pro Shop trip will be shortened while there if she goes. Hmmmm, do I hope her boss lets her off that day or... Stay tuned

Trump started no new wars, in his last term or this one. How stupid are you?
Biden, on the other hand, started the Ukraine/Russia war.
BTW - The Dead Kennedys were the punk rock GOAT, and I won't entertain any other opinions on this matter.
I, for one, am glad we attacked the Houthis. I saw the number either yesterday or the day before...but they've attacked Americans/American ships like 100+ times. Why wouldn't we hit them? Also I don't understand the angle that Israel has something to do with it when the Houthis have attacked us too.
Ironically, a lot of these people saying Trump was wrong for doing so would probably be saying Trump is a coward for not hitting them back if he chose not to.
And saying this is the start of WW3 is just dumb lol.

This moron never complained when the Democrats were in charge, stealing the hard-earned money of the middle class and giving it to themselves and their friends.
Democrats create the problem so as to offer the solution to them, the useful idiots.
