The Department of Defense, the Department of State, the CIA has it loaded onto government phones because it is the most secure and efficient way to communicate.

Joe Biden's incompetence and pathetic weakness on the world stage for years. The Houthi terrorists grew emboldened. Immediately after taking office in 2021, Joe Biden removed the Iran-backed Houthis from the Foreign Terrorist Organization and specifically designated Global Terrorist List. Did anybody in this room ask the Biden administration at the time why they made such a stupid mistake?

This reckless action undid the designation put in place by President Trump during his first term, and what followed was predictable and devastating. The Houthis targeted U.S. military ships and aircraft, hit commercial ships, including U.S. flagged vessels, threatened our personnel overseas, and attacked our allies in the region. This resulted in more than a year of U.S.

flagged commercial ships being prevented from safely sailing through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, and the Gulf of Aden. This had a massive negative impact on global trade of the economic security of the United States.

President Trump and his team are putting a stop to these threats in restoring American strength around the world. The Trump peace through strength approach means no terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the waterways of the world. But unfortunately, this is not what the Democrats and the media want to talk about.

They are focused on a coordinated campaign to try and sow chaos in this White House. And this has been the most successful first two months of any administration ever, which is exactly why they are doing this. We are not going to bend in the face of this insincere outrage. And here is just one example of how bad faith the Democrats' criticisms are.

Democrat Senator Mark Warner is hysterical over the use of Signal, which is an approved encrypted app, in the killing of Houthi terrorists. But Senator Warner himself used Signal to work with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch to connect the disgraced Steele dossier author who started the Russia hoax. which Jeffrey Goldberg later reported on. How ironic.

We're not going to lose focus of the bottom line, which is that Joe Biden's weakness enabled and emboldened Houthi terrorists, and President Trump's strength and resolve eliminated those terrorists.

The president's view on all of this remains the same today as it did yesterday. and I think it speaks volumes about the leadership of this president, that he went directly to all of you, members of the press corps. He was asked, do you want someone else to go out and do a briefing? And he said, no, I will tackle this story. I will discuss it. The people need to hear from me about the situation.

And so his thoughts on this remained the same today. He has placed great trust in his national security team. And as for the usage of signal, As the president said yesterday, as the CIA director has testified under oath, this is an approved app. It's an encrypted app.
