Hegseth's chilling message as 2nd US armada nears Iran; Trump's 'worse attack' threat looms

President Donald Trump highlights ongoing efforts to expand and modernize the U.S. military, announcing plans to “bring back the battleship” with new warships he claims will be vastly more powerful than historic vessels like the Iowa‑ and Missouri‑class, while stressing that America’s armed forces are now “very, very strong.” He invites Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to describe a large U.S. fleet deploying to the Middle East and to outline how the administration is rebuilding deterrence after past failures in Afghanistan, Ukraine, and the October 7 attacks in Israel.
