![Recreation of Signal message conversation between Trump Cabinet members regarding bombings of the Houthi in Yemen5 From Joe Kent There is nothing time sensitive driving the time line. We’ll have the exact same options in a month. From John Ratcliffe - REDACTED From Pete Hegseth VP: I understand your concerns – and fully support you raising w/ POTUS. Important considerations, most of which are tough to know how they play out (economy, Ukraine peace, Gaza, etc). I think messaging is going to be tough no matter what – nobody knows who the Houthis are – which is why we would need to stay focused on: 1) Biden failed & 2) Iran funded.

From Pete Hegseth Waiting a few weeks or a month does not fundamentally change the calculus. 2 immediate risks on waiting: 1) this leaks, and we look indecisive; 2) Israel takes an action first – or Gaza cease fire falls apart – and we don’t get to start this on our own terms. We can manage both. We are prepared to execute, and if I had final go or no go vote, I believe we should. This [is] not about the Houthis. I see it as two things: 1) Restoring Freedom of Navigation, a core national interest; and 2) Reestablish deterrence, which Biden cratered. But, we can easily pause. And if we do, I will do all we can to enforce 100% OPSEC. I welcome other thoughts.](https://www.thedailybeast.com/resizer/v2/7FGBS2LHVBDOXN6F65KUO2PGQM.jpg?auth=41db6f613f288b23270005f2f73f651cb20e508fe07d904bcda3e9e30990b03c&width=800&height=1661)

![TEXT MESSAGE SCREEN GRABS Form Michael Waltz Whether it’s now or several weeks from now, it will have to be the United States that reopens these shipping lanes. Per the president’s request we are working with DOD and State to determine how to compile the cost associated and levy them on the Europeans. From JD Vance @Pete Hegseth: “if you think we should do it let’s go. I just hate bailing Europe out again. ADD From JD Vance Let’s just make sure our messaging is tight here. And if there are things we can do upfront to minimize risk to Saudi oil facilities we should do it. From Hegseth “VP: I fully share your loathing of European free-loading. It’s PATHETIC. But Mike is correct, we are the only ones on the planet (on our side of the ledger) who can do this. Nobody else even close. Question is timing. I feel like now is as good a time as any, given POTUS directive to reopen shipping lanes. I think we should go; but POTUS still retains 24 hours of decision space. From SM As I heard it, the president was clear: green light, but we soon make clear to Egypt and Europe what we expect in return. We also need to figure out how to enforce such a requirement. EG, if Europe doesn’t remunerate, then what? If the US successfully restores freedom of navigation at great cost there needs to be some further economic gain extracted in return.

From Pete Hegseth Agree.](https://www.thedailybeast.com/resizer/v2/DHHUGYWI5JD4XIPTRHBAHQCXGQ.jpg?auth=98bebb6761f55d94ee5595078bdcd6aa0dff6020a9fe847f433b2abce6b0a066&width=800&height=1989)
