Summary

JD Vance angered senior Republicans after questioning Trump’s directive to strike the Houthis in Yemen during a Signal chat with top officials.

Some GOP lawmakers viewed Vance’s objections—framed as anti-European and pro-MAGA—as an attempt to obstruct Trump’s decision.

The Trump administration is escalating military actions, including deploying B-2 bombers, carriers, and missile systems, signaling a sustained campaign.

Critics fear entanglement similar to Iraq.

    How does he obstruct Trump in a “private” communication with Trump toadies? Are they saying he was the only one who knew a journalist was there, despite not being the one who invited him, and took the opportunity to make the administration look bad by making himself look bad, knowing the conversation would eventually be released?

    It legitimately hurts my head how imbecilic these people are.

        Frankly, I don’t think infighting is enough … a huge riot is required, doesn’t matter which side or in what form but it has to be an enormous thing that makes it permanently prohibitive to continue on the current path. If it is not then they just replace one unwanted idiot with the next in line…

          Oh ya sorry… this is strictly a longing for vengeful entertainment. no other political goals in this thought.
