"Carlson replied: Here's what I know so far, which is that members of Congress were briefed yesterday that a war is coming and it'll be announced in the address to the nation tonight at 9 o'clock by the president. Who knows, by the way, if that will actually happen. I don't know, and I never want to overstate what I know, which is pretty limited in general, but a member of Congress told me that this morning."
"Viewers were subsequently underwhelmed when they tuned in to Trump's presidential address, only to hear the president fail to mention Venezuela at all.

Ruben Gallego expressed relief that war was not announced. Several theories and social media reactions emerged.
