Iranian-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen fired anti-ship ballistic missiles at cargo ships in the Red Sea this week despite the U.S. and U.K. conducting airstrikes against the group to stop the attacks. U.S. Central Command said that the attacks happened throughout the day on Tuesday as the terror group fired six anti-ship ballistic missiles (ASBM) into the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. “Three of the ASBMs were attempting to hit MV Star Nasia‚ a Marshall Island-flagged‚ Greek owned-and-operated bulk carrier transiting the Gulf of Aden‚” CENTCOM said in a statement. “At approximately 3:20 a.m.‚ MV Star Nasia reported an explosion near the ship causing minor damage but no injuries. At 2 p.m. another missile impacted the water near the ship with no effect. At 4:30 p.m.‚ USS Laboon (DDG 58)‚ operating near MV Star Nasia‚ intercepted and shot down a third anti-ship ballistic missile fired by the Iranian-backed Houthis. MV Star Nasia remains seaworthy and is continuing toward its destination.” The statement said that the remaining ASBMs that were fired were believed to be targeting the Barbados-flagged MV Morning Tide‚ a U.K.-owned cargo ship operating in the Southern Red Sea. The missiles landed near the ship‚ but did not damage it.

The strikes “specifically targeted sites associated with the Houthis’ deeply buried weapons storage facilities‚ missile systems and launchers‚ air defense systems‚ and radars.”

SiriusXM host Megyn Kelly ripped President Joe Biden this week for refusing to participate in a Super Bowl interview with CBS News‚ saying that the 81-year-old president was not “physically” capable of talking. CBS News confirmed that President Biden would not be taking part ahead of 2024’s Super Bowl LVIII on February 11 after trying to negotiate with the White House. The news comes as Biden is struggling in the polls ahead of the 2024 presidential election as multiple crises have erupted on his watch. “Last year he could get away with it‚ because it was Fox‚” Kelly said on her show. “Evil Fox‚ who would sit with them? That would be terrible. And but this year‚ it’s a different story because it’s CBS. What does he have against CBS? Why won’t he go on CBS? There’s not even a reason. He’s just not going to do it because he won’t sit with the press because he can’t answer hard questions. I don’t mean he doesn’t know the answers. I mean‚ he physically cannot get the words out.” “[MSNBC host Joe Scarborough] is praising Biden‚ because it was in the news this week that Biden called Trump a ‘sick f***‚'” Kelly continued. “He manages to squeeze into this reaction‚ a defense‚ he thinks‚ of Joe Biden’s many verbal gaffes. … I don’t think having a stuttering problem makes you think dead people are alive and alive people are dead.” “It’s simply absurd‚” she added.

GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida‚ who last year successfully moved to oust then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) from the speakership‚ has suggested that McCarthy would make a good Republican National Committee chair."I fully endorse Kevin McCarthy for RNC Chair. Kevin is well organized and a very high-revenue fundraiser. He will also be well-liked by the RNC Committee. The RNC Chair doesn't make any policy decisions‚ set any agenda‚ or negotiate against Democrats‚ ever. Kevin would be terrific‚" Gaetz tweeted."Is there a greater troll in Congress than Matt?" Sebastian Gorka wrote in response to Gaetz's post. — (@) "Stop stop he’s already dead‚" Molly Jong-Fast‚ tweeted in response to Gaetz.During an X Spaces event‚ Gaetz suggested that Scott Presler and former Rep. Lee Zeldin of New York would be good options for RNC chair‚ and he also indicated that he likes Harmeet Dhillon‚ who previously sought the role but lost to McDaniel.Last year‚ Gaetz moved to jettison McCarthy from the speakership. Ultimately‚ Gaetz‚ and seven other GOP lawmakers joined with Democrats in voting to oust McCarthy from the role. Republicans struggled to land on a replacement but eventually chose Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana. McCarthy decided to leave office before the end of his term and is no longer a member of Congress.The New York Times has reported that according to two individuals‚ Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel informed former President Donald Trump that she intends to depart from her post after the South Carolina GOP presidential primary later this month.Like Blaze News?
