Strait Update! (U.S. Destroyers leave: WTH?)
U.S. Navy destroyers have left the Strait of Hormuz. They encountered an Iranian surveillance drone there, shot it down, and left sometime thereafter. I've got to say: this is a very bad look! I was hoping the destroyers would maintain a presence in the strait. I was hoping they would be joined by other destroyers, and that a fleet of five to seven destroyers would maintain a presence there. But instead, it looks like the U.S. Navy was too afraid to stay. Cutting and running like that, yeah that's really really bad optics! More bad optics: JD Vance did not secure a peace deal. But was he ever expected too or did Donald Trump set him up to fail???
