Mexico and canada, and its now before them and theyll have to make a decision. But thats one the farmers love, the manufacturers love, the unions love. Its a great deal for this country, and nafta was i think one of the worst trade deals ever made. Made the wto was worse, the wto from the time that happened in 95. From the time that happened china baem like a rocket ship. It was pretty much flat lined and all of a sudden it joined the wto and they became i mean they went through the roof. And very much to our liability its we lost tremendous amounts of money over the from that time we just lost tremendous amounts. It was a terrible deal, wto world trade. And if you look at nafta, nafta has been a disaster for our
country. The usmca is a great deal for our country. I think canada is happy, but theyre not happy like were happy, but theyre very happy. Its a good deal for canada, a good deal for mexico. Mexico just approved it, and canada is waiting for us to approve it. And its with the P
commercial shipping and the southern red sea in recent weeks. we ve seen what these launch of one-way attack drones, smaller drones that are packed with explosives. the goal is that they ran them into a ship, causing damage and even worse at times. the other major projectiles that the houthis have been using our anti-cruise missiles and ballistic missiles. at the radar provides, in some cases, targeting for the system, but they can also provide targeting for air defenses. so, the u.s. and british military last night conducting these strikes, it included manned aircrafts. if these are for air defenses, you think that they might be wanting to preserve their ability to carry a future man strikes without having the threat at the houthi air defenses potentially buttoning their unmanned systems like f-18s. but the other checks that they took last night, which to point out, it was one target, it much smaller than the barrage of strikes we saw with the u.s. and british military tech last

well, the first word of this is coming from our team at the pentagon. they are saying more than a dozen locations within yemen have been struck with a combination of surface and air, basically weapons. so that means some sort of a missile some aircraft. we are told if i can look at my email for one second because this is all come in. f-18s from the uss eisenhower that were used in these strikes. it comes after a couple days of john kirby, who works with the national security council here at the white house coming to the microphone in the briefing room to say the houthis needed to stop doing what they were doing, jeopardizing innocent lives of american military and commercial interests that are in the red sea. the houthis have just been launching one-way drones up the coast over the red sea, and it s been doing a lot of damage.
proxy who have been emboldened since hamas, also backed by iran, launched those terror attacks on israel on october 7th. we have natasha bertrand at the pentagon. we have nick robertson in israel on this. natasha, tell us about the strikes. what do we know? reporter: we are learning a little bit more about the assets the u.s. used to carry out the strikes, including 22 fixed wing aircraft, which include f-18s, which took off from the aircraft carrier that is currently stationed in the red sea. as well as the fact that the u.s. deployed 80 tomahawk missiles to strike these targets inside yemen that they say were being used by the houthis as command control centers. weapons depots to store drones. the u.s. says at this point that they do believe that the damage they ve caused to the houthi infrastructure was, quote, significant. but they still don t know, at this point, they are still doing a damage assessment about how degraded the houthis capabilities actually are at this point. impo
