Really ignominious start to the Hegseth era, and unfortunate to needlessly heighten the risk for those naval aviator by leaking their attack plans

This is what happens when you put very unserious people in very serious jobs.

Seriously. I love that the SUPPOSED counterweight to what they THINK “DEI” is, is “only merit-based hiring!” Yet the only “merit” that any of these people have is: willing to deepthroat Trump’s mushroom dick and gargle the gravy.
Seriously, the resume of most of his cabinet appointments is utterly embarrassing. They are wildly unqualified for the actual job, but they score 100 on the “cum chugging Trump loyalist” scale.

Not at all good. Some PRC spooky fellas are gonna be pulling out all the stops to talk to the Houthis and Iranians doing this.

I mean, I've made a hard turn/evasive action that made me spill my coffee in the car.  So, same-same, really.

I'm calling bullshit. Houthi fire getting so close to an American aircraft carrier that it's forced to perform evasion maneuvers? Yeah, no.

110% - that's clickbait nonsense.  Heard brakes failed in the lift as the plane was being loaded and both the plane and tow-car went wide, people scattered and they both went over the side.  

Carriers are ringed with a dozen support/attack ships, multiple subs and concentric rings of security.  Is this lady saying some duded in a shrimp boat got through all that and were in range to threaten a battle carrier?  Lol, no.

Not saying we should escalate, but I presume our doctrine says we get extra shitty with our enemies when they fuck with a goddamn nuclear super carrier.  If for no other reason because it’s very bad look to let that kinda fuckery go uncontested.

Natasha Bertrand is not a hack or clickbait journalist and neither is Toropin (Military.com). I’m not saying this for sure happened, but I feel comfortable saying that a Pentagon official in a place of responsibility said it did.

The Houthis possess an arsenal of Iran-supplied anti-ship ballistic missiles and destroyers have been shooting them down, as well as one-way UAVs. These are not on par with what China or Russia has, but they are not shrimp boat guns either.  It is not out of the realm of possibility that the carrier maneuvered out of caution.
