'Staggering Incompetence'; Critics Rip Trump Admin After US Shoots Down It's Own Drone

[skews13]

Critics are calling out President Donald Trump and his administration after what appears to have been a massive screw-up in the airspace around El Paso, Texas, for the second time in less than a month.

The U.S. military on Thursday reportedly used a laser weapon to shoot down a drone near the U.S.-Mexico border. It turned out the drone was operated by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, The Associated Press reported.

Guess you never heard of friendly fire before.

You suppose that it never happened evah!!!

Maybe OP would have preferred they drop a bomb on a family of 10, mostly young children, out getting water, like the Biden Administration did during his disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.

Critics of the Military under Trump shooting a drone are probably the same ones who thought nothing of or stayed silent when China floated a surveillance device over the US.

The problem is that Trumps leadership style pits one agency against another and does not encourage cooperation

This is the result of every man for himself

What's alarming is this weapon wasn't deployed. It was on home ground, and the operators had enough time without being under stress of a combat defensive posture, and failed to positively identify the target.

This is the President's fault? You Lefties have lost your ******* minds with TDS.

More alarming than when Biden murdered the Afganistan family of 10 out drawing water from a well?

They're drawing up articles of impeachment at this very moment. They've got him this time

I’m surprised they didn’t blame Trump for the snowstorm, sort of like antisemites do against Jews. Haters gonna hate.

E&E News: Jewish family blamed for snow. Where'd that come from?

<p>A Washington, D.C., lawmaker is backtracking after suggesting last week that a famous Jewish family was manipulating the climate.</p>

It’s one thing if you know every drone is an enemy drone

But if your target is sometimes friendly you need strict firing protocols

Trump made the withdrawal agreement with the Taliban
He made no provisions to withdraw US equipment

And I'm sure the after action report will find out what went wrong.

With the cartels going apeshit in Mexico I'm sure everyone by the Mexican border is a bit nervous.

and biden could have changed that....

and biden could have changed that....

Biden had priorities to get people out over equipment

Do you realize how much equipment we left behind in Vietnam?
