The Biden administration is expected to re-designate the Houthis as a specially designated global terrorist (SDGT) entity amid continued attacks by the Yemen-based militia, a source familiar told CNN Tuesday.
The administration removed the Houthis’ SDGT designation and de-listed it as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO) in February 2021, after it was designated by the Trump administration in its final weeks.
At the time, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the decision to remove the group’s designations was driven by concerns that it could imperil the ability to deliver crucial assistance to the people of Yemen. He said it was “a recognition of the dire humanitarian situation in Yemen.”
Both the SDGT and FTO designations trigger an asset freeze, but only an FTO designation imposes immigration restrictions on members, according to the State Department. The SDGT designation also does not impose sanctions on those who provide “material support” to the group.
As of Tuesday, the administration was not reimposing the FTO designation.

Yeah, me neither.
WHY WOULD THEY EVER BE REMOVED FROM SUCH A LIST?????
How nice of them to do it, after removing them from the terrorist list a week after Biden moved into the White House, he did it to kiss Iran’s ass, now he’s seeing that Iran made a massive fool out of the teenage girl showering buffoon
Because the grand poobah of the muslim brothrhood, Obama, hates Jews. Biden is only a useful idiot mouthpiece for him
Will this new designation help them immigrate to America?
yeah, that’s like Jobama asking Iran to give all the money back that he gave them.
I bet they are shaking in their moccasins.
Trump was righ. Again
The Global Terrorist Entity that I see is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Now that you mention it - me neither.
But still allows Iran to do what very the hell they want.....weak
Joe reversed Trump's order shortly after he usurped the White House, and took them off the terror list. He did it, knowing full well that the money he sent to Iran would be used to fund Hamas, and the Houthi's. It must be killing him to put them back on the list.
Sounds like this is a setup for another endless war and the next nation through which the corrupt-o-cRATS can funnel money to themselves.
Ten years from now, it won’t surprise me one bit to learn, that the CIA had been supplying the munitions currently being used by the Yemen rebels to fire drones and other armaments. Create a problem, move in with the pre-planned solution, which IS the game plan all along. Won’t be surprised one single itty bitty little tiny infinitesimal bit.
The Ukraine slush fund is running dry, so onto the next scheme.
Soon after they figure a way for Ukraine to concede (with grace of course, according the the coming propaganda narrative), we’ll probably be informed that the US will be funding the rebuilding of Ukraine, using more of our tax money, as a humanitaaaaaarian gesture. Oh, and of course the same group of perverts ::coughcoughHRCcoughcough: will rush in to “save” the orphans dontchaknow.
This concludes today’s prophecy conspiracy theory post.
...that is all
That should terrify them.
Wow! How did Biden figure this out? And it only took 3 years!
Now if he would just think a little harder about Iran, maybe he could come up with something there, too.
While shoveling money to the Palestinians.
And somewhere, the Cartels have got to be standing in front of a mirror saying “exactly what the HELL do I have to do to make the list?”.
It’s good that we’re focused on the Houthis. We need more wars.
So now is he going to give them cash?
