    Thats mighty close to violating US airspace-we'd have to scramble aircraft before they got there.

    That is intentional airspace.

    You must mean international.

    And perhaps it is-but that does not mean the threat isn't real approaching America's coast.

    I was going to say husband-but they'd be the same thing.

    Obama killed with a drone strike American Citizen Anwar al-Awlaki and later his 16 year old son Abdulrahman along with his 8 year old sister. Both Abdulrahman and his father Anwar were both American Citizens afforded the protections of due process afforded by the Constitution. Obama should have been impeached over that.

    No due process to American Citizens.

    We’ve got a pretty bad track record on that.

    You act as if three years is a long time. You must be young.

    You can take that as whatever you like. The fact remains I have never approved of Obama’s use of the drone program and you’ll never find that I have said, or will say otherwise.

    I agree with your assessment. Given the ones you enumerated. Don’t think those would warrant killing the ring leader.

    If that was made up then it should be easy to list the reasons that the JCPOA was a bad deal for the US and Trump had to renege on our deal.

    I agree that at the very least an impeachment inquiry would have been appropriate. I’ve never approved of Obama’s use of the drone program.

    We're just supposed to let him continue to kill Americans?

    You think this attack was his only attack? He had just killed an American. I suppose you think killing UBL was wrong too.

    The Congress has no room in this matter. With the AUMF fraud, Congress enabled the Unitary Executive and abdicated their constitutional duties.

    Congress fully approves of the criminal government it funds.

    Democrat Lawmakers Challenge President Trump’s Military Authority, Following Soleimani’s Assassination

    Is there something he has said or done that they do not challenge? The resistance is 100%. Worth ignoring.

    An article that the actual commander in chief exercised his constitutional authority of commander in chief? Sounds like just another Article of utter nonsense that the House keeps scrounging for.

    Apparently that is the strategy Democrats want to take. Keep paying off terrorists to kill us because it’s cheaper than killing them. It works well until they pull a 9/11. Then all that pussyfooting around tossing money at them like strippers bites us in the ass.

    Three years is a long time.

    Heck, Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize after only being in office for 8 months and then goes on to bomb 7 Muslim countries, issue record number of drone strikes and oust the Libyan leader.
