About time, these terrorists bomb ships in the Red Sea, prices of some goods went up because of them and ships having to go around Africa. That idiot of Biden removed the terrorist designation. Only terrorist supporters like these guys.
President Trump issued an executive order Wednesday re-designating the Houthis as a foreign terror organization after the Biden administration scrapped the label in February 2021.
The Houthis, an Iran-backed militia in Yemen, had been designated a foreign terror organization at the end of Trump’s first term — but former Secretary of State Antony Blinken quickly removed the group’s dual designations as both a “Foreign Terrorist Organizations” (FTO) and “Specially Designated Global Terrorists” (SDGT).
Retired President Joe Biden had re-designated the group with the SDGT label in January 2024, partially reversing Blinken’s decision after the group targeted merchant vessels in the Red Sea.
“Under President Trump, it is now the policy of the United States to cooperate with its regional partners to eliminate the Houthis’ capabilities and operations, deprive them of resources, and thereby end their attacks on US personnel and civilians, U.S. partners, and maritime shipping in the Red Sea,” the White House said in a statement.
The order directs Secretary of State Marco Rubio to submit a report to the president within 30 days recommending the designation of the Houthis, also known as Ansar Allah, and to formally designate the group an FTO within 15 days of the document being submitted.
