If his predecessors had possessed the capability to strike targets without risking American pilots, they absolutely would have used it.

Comparing Obama’s drone usage to Bush’s or Clinton’s is like criticizing JFK for not sending enough emails. You can't compare the usage of a tool that was fully operational for one president but experimental—or non-existent—for the others.

🧵

The claim that Obama used more drones than previous presidents is a logical fallacy that ignores technological availability. It’s a cheap talking point designed for people who don't look past the headline.

Thread:

White America. Have a seat, let's chat. I have to be honest. Before this election (when Biden was still in the race), I would tell my family and friends that this election (like all) would ultimately come down to what white voters want.

Trump: I will be a dictator on day 1 and persecute my enemies!
Harris: Trump says he will be a dictator and use the government to come after his enemies.
Jake Tapper, Ezra Klein et al: Both sides rhetoric has become overheated and Kamala Harris must answer for covering up the fact Joe Biden is old

Distraction.

Mainstream media wants you to think there's something wrong with Dems so that they can distract you from noticing their complicity in getting Trump elected. In the immortal words of the parents of South Park, 'We must blame them and cause a fuss, before somebody thinks of blaming us!'

Content creators are gradually becoming worse than MSM.

Ethics in journalism is no more. Media will always lean towards controversy. And it’s not about the first amendment, or about giving us any substantive information. It’s about profit.

Nothing positive will come from you sitting down with someone who’s hell-bent on walking away with the exact same opinion as they walked in with. The key phrase in any debate of ideas is good faith. Without it on both sides, there’s literally no point in any discussion.

If there's a sensational claim about people eating dogs and cats in Springfield, Ohio, there’s absolutely no need to run there with cameras to interview people on the street and ask their opinions on it. The same way there’s no need to stand in the path of a tornado to tell us how devastating it is.

Question...

Do any of these sound familiar?

"It's Democrats fault I voted for Donald Trump."

"It's Democrats fault I voted third party."

"It's Democrats fault I didn't vote at all."

The United States of America: Where it's always someone else's fault.

🙋🏾‍♂️ At what point do we start whoopin ass?

Never forgive Trump supporters! Never forgive the press! He should’ve been in prison!

Boba! 😋

The persistent pattern of those who inherited the benefits of colonization, whether they are conservative or liberal, mishandling that inheritance, and then redirecting responsibility towards the very groups they've disadvantaged is deeply troubling.

What I've learned from modern day journalism, the truly unbiased information is towards the end of the article. 🙄 Trash. The whole lot of 'em.

Just finished it now. I enjoyed it. Nothing like a good mix of horror and adventure. 😊👏🏾👌🏾

Gulf of Distraction

A harbinger of what's to come?

I guess Musk was truly being forward thinking when it came to the automobiles portion. It all makes sense now. 😄
