On March 24, 2025, a U.S. military strike in Yemen was greenlit — not in a secure situation room, but in a Signal group chat accidentally shared with a journalist. In this gripping episode of Pod Bless America, K.W. Hampton unpacks the surreal, terrifying reality of how war is waged in the digital age.
We break down what really happened inside the “Houthi PC small group,” where names like JD Vance, Pete Hegseth, and Stephen Miller debated strikes, casualties, oil prices, and European freeloading — all while violating basic national security protocol.
This is a confirmed breach of process — and a symptom of a collapsing command structure.
From the denial to the receipts, from emojis to military execution orders, this episode is a wake-up call about power, governance, and what happens when we let group chats replace government.
