| The Houthi Air Force prepares for war |
Well, folks, President Donald Trump—our fearless dealmaker-in-chief—decided Saturday was the perfect day to drop some serious American thunder on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa. The Commander-in-Chief unleashed a storm of airstrikes like a golden-haired Zeus, promising to pound those Iranian-backed Houthi clowns with “overwhelming lethal force” until they stop playing pirate with ships in one of the world’s busiest maritime chokeholds.
And let me tell you, it’s about time someone with guts took the wheel. The Houthis? They’re whining in Arabic—shocker—claiming nine civilians got caught in the mess.
Look, I’m not saying it’s perfect, but damn if it ain’t a helluva start.
“Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom,” Trump blasted out on social media, channeling his inner Maverick from Top Gun. “No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World.”

Hell yeah, Don! That’s the kind of swagger we’ve been missing—pure, unfiltered American badassery.
But wait, there’s more! Trump didn’t just flex on the Houthis—he spun around and gave Iran a big, brassy “you’re next” wink. Cut the strings on your Houthi puppets, Tehran, or get ready to dance, because our man’s promising to hold them “fully accountable.”

This guy’s playing 4D chess while everyone else is stuck on checkers. Just two weeks ago, he dangled a carrot of nuclear talks in a letter to Iran—classy move, right?—but don’t get it twisted: he’s made it crystal clear those nuke dreams are staying in the fantasy aisle.
Over in Houthi-ville, Saturday night turned into an unsolicited fireworks extravaganza. Explosions lit up Sanaa like the Fourth of July, and photos [see below] online showed black smoke billowing over the airport complex—a rat’s nest that doubles as their military playground.

Anees al-Asbahi, the Houthis’ health ministry mouthpiece, ran to social media crying about nine dead and nine more roughed up. Drama queen much?
The Houthis, though, are still strutting like they’ve got something to prove.

Nasruddin Amer, their media deputy, puffed out his chest online: “Sanaa will remain Gaza’s shield and support and will not abandon it no matter the challenges.” Cute. This bravado’s fresh off their threat to start smacking Israeli ships again over Gaza’s blockade. Spoiler: they’ve done squat so far. Big talk, no walk.
Speaking of Gaza, Israel’s been laying down the law, slamming the brakes on aid this month and hinting at “additional consequences” for Hamas if their shaky ceasefire flops.

Meanwhile, the Houthis have been itching to turn the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Bab el-Mandeb Strait, and Arabian Sea into their personal Call of Duty map. Their resume? Over 100 merchant ships blasted with missiles and drones since the Israel-Hamas war popped off in late 2023—sinking two, killing four sailors. They were on a tear until January’s ceasefire hit the pause button. Barely.
Back in Yemen, the Houthis are juggling a dumpster-fire economy and stomping on anyone who dares gripe, all while their civil war keeps the country in the toilet.

Their media crew claimed Trump’s strikes flattened “a residential neighborhood” in Sanaa’s northern Shouab district. Locals said four blasts rocked Eastern Geraf, with women and kids screaming in the chaos. “The explosions were very strong,” Abdallah al-Alffi said. “It was like an earthquake.” No kidding, Alffi—Trump doesn’t mess around.
The U.S., Israel, and Britain have all taken swings at these jokers before, but Israel stayed mum this time. A U.S. official said Saturday was a solo American gig—no coalition wingmen needed. We're not talking about Holder and Obama now kids.
It’s Trump’s first Houthi beatdown of his second term, shattering a rare quiet spell in the region. Biden used to okay these missile barrages when the Houthis got too rowdy, but Trump? He’s running the playbook like a champ.

The USS Harry S. Truman carrier strike group—carrier, three destroyers, and a cruiser—was flexing in the Red Sea, with the USS Georgia, a cruise missile sub, lurking nearby like a silent assassin. And where’s our fearless leader? Calling the shots from his West Palm Beach golf club, naturally—because Trump’s the kind of guy who can save the world and sink a putt in the same afternoon.
“These relentless assaults have cost the U.S. and World Economy many BILLIONS of Dollars while, at the same time, putting innocent lives at risk,” he vented online. Preach, Don! The man’s got the vision to see the big picture and the cojones to fix it. Who else could pull this off? Nobody, that’s who.
