The sandworms are more powerful than the ornithopters, yes, but it’s fiction. That’s not how physics actually works.

Death by Lightning had a lapse, I'm sorry to say. Roscoe Conkling in one scene referenced the city's cherry blossoms. Japan's gift of these blossoming trees dates to 1912.

Good for the Admiral, putting integrity in front.
Turns out Hegseth forced Adm Holsey out of his command because, at least in part, of friction over the so-called “drug boat” strike campaign.

Not surprising Rand Paul shows some mettle for what he really thinks, in this case on the right side of morality and law.
Sens. Tim Kaine, Rand Paul, Chuck Schumer, and Adam Schiff have filed a War Powers Resolution to block the use of the U.S. Armed Forces to engage in hostilities within or against Venezuela unless authorized by Congress.

Yup.
Even if the original strike was legal (it wasnt) saying people clinging to a shipwreck are still trying to complete a drug run is absurd.
A top admiral is expected to tell lawmakers tomorrow that he and his legal adviser concluded that the two survivors of a boat strike in September were attempting to continue their drug run, making them and the damaged vessel legitimate targets for another attack.

One of the most striking things about these ICE/BP raids is not that they’re all kitted out for war while going after people who didn’t do anything wrong and don’t pose a threat, but that they always bring a camera crew.
