Speaker Mike Johnson told NBC News Thursday the US is "not at war" with Iran, merely "policing the Strait of Hormuz." Three carrier strike groups, 21 ships, 200 aircraft, 15,000 sailors and Marines, $25B in declared spending, 13-14 American KIA, 1,200+ Iranian ballistic missiles fired at the Gulf, 6,500 tons of fresh US arms landed at Ashdod and Haifa in 24 hours. The administration's legal posture is that none of this is "hostilities" under the 1973 act.
