Sen. Bill Hagerty called on the Biden administration to reverse its decision to remove the Houthis from the foreign terrorist organization list and to impose sanctions on Iran.
He argued that the administration’s actions are undercutting military deterrence and appeasing Iran, which is the greatest state sponsor of terror.
“Our military deterrence capability is strong, the problem is that our diplomatic messages are completely undercutting it,” said Hagerty. (Trending: SNL Legend Unleashes On Democrats)

“We’re appeasing Iran,” alleged the lawmaker.
“Just last week, the Biden administration released another $10 billion to Iran. They’re the greatest state sponsor of terror. You think about it, when they came into office, the Biden administration removed the Houthis from the foreign terrorist organization list, explained Hagerty.
“The Houthis turned right around and attacked Saudi Arabia. Now, they’re launching missiles from Yemen into Israel. You think about it, they just took over a Japanese ship in the Red Sea, and they have 25 of the Japanese sailors as hostages,” revealed Hagerty.
David Asman followed up and said, “So, these, essentially, are rogue pirates now under Iranian control, they could take over any ship they want unless we respond.”
“Absolutely, but instead, the Biden administration takes them off the terrorist watch list. We should put them right back on,” responded Hagerty.
Adding, “And Dave, we’ve got to start snapping back and enforcing every sanction that we have in place.”
Hagerty emphasized the need to enforce existing sanctions and re-list the Houthis as a terrorist organization.
