John Bolton said the deployment is meant as a warning to Iran.

The U.S. military is deploying the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group and a bomber task force to the Central Command region in the Middle East to send a "clear and unmistakable message" to Iran, national security adviser John Bolton said in a statement Sunday.

The action comes "in response to a number of troubling and escalatory indications and warnings," Bolton said, and is intended to convey "to the Iranian regime that any attack on United States interests or on those of our allies will be met with unrelenting force.

According to the Navy’s official website, the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group had departed Norfolk, Va., on April 1 for what was described as “as a regularly scheduled deployment.” Rear Adm. John Wade is commander of the carrier strike group

'I cut you esse, I'm loco!'

I guess AmbJohnBolton finally got what he wanted, probably gave him a hard-on.

An unwarranted provocation

Message for what?

Yeah right they are terrified aren’t they?🔥🤡👹

So, shortly we will be at war with Iran, NK and Venezuela. And trump says we shouldn’t be in other countries’ business. I can foresee hiw the draft will be back and before we know it we will be fighting Putin’s wars.

The propaganda presidency

So now the USA is going to fight Israel's war with Iran while paying for Saudi's war with Yemen along with giving the Saudi's nuclear power. What has the USA gotten?

FALSE! That Navy fleet was deployed April 1st, well before Iran made their threat. Bolton is just spewing propaganda. FactsMatter

And we’re dead..

The only message that is being sent to Iran is the message the sociopath promised the corrupt Saudis

Pretty sure the message is “Holy shit, trump is in political trouble again”.

They are trying to start an illegal war with Iran. Iran is in compliance with the Nuclear Deal; so this Administration has to make stuff up.

Yikes.

So another war but with not even a made up reason this time.

And distract from the Mueller testimony. Trump taking a leaf from Margaret Thatcher's playbook.

Trump is gonna start World War 3........

Putin has his man.

Imagine if Iran deployed a strike group to the United States. Trump’ll get us in a war to save his ass come re-election. This whole administration and most of its predecessors belong in a cell.

Because that’s what every American wants, another Middle East war. Trump probably thinks this will be like Desert Storm, when in reality it’s going to be like Iraqi Freedom. But since he shortsightedly backed out of the Iran Deal, there’s going to be actual WMDs in play this time

Bolton knob is arising War he is advising If he had to go He’d reply, oh hell no Which isn’t at all surprising

Good, finally we have an awesome administration.

Well shit. Are we threatening war?

1+ hour call with Vlad..🤔🤔🤔 PutinsLittleMinnow

That's a lot of $$$ and possible human life to waste to deflect from Mueller/Barr.

Pardon my ignorance but exactly what message to we feel we have to deploy troups to relay it?!

Just another instrument to start a conflict before May 15. He needs a big distraction.

Deflection

So glad we have a President that is not in love with Iran.

I’m sure the trump administration will be as tactful and responsible as always

Obama paid them off to threaten us? Obama’s plan to destroy America!

Congress needs to send a 'message' to POTUS SenKamalaHarris SpeakerPelosi

This is insane.

Didn't they deploy last mo?

...one month ago.
