Don't forget Obama also drone striked an American citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki. Fairly confident to say that targeting and killing an American citizen is the prime example of extra-judicial killing.

Sure, some people will be happy that an alleged terrorist was killed. However the legal justification by David J. Barron (Chief Legal Counsel) laid out the the groundwork for a future targeted extra-judicial killing of an American citizen.

You know who's currently in the US crosshairs? Trans people, leftists, immigrants, and anyone who's a non-White, cis, conservative, male.

    Sometimes when a cat grooms another cat, it's nice. A cat helping another cat out, cleaning those hard-to-get spots on the back of the neck with a friendly lick.

    "Rise, my people. I have returned, never to leave your side again. GDI sought to destroy me, but they have only made me stronger.

ONE VISION, ONE PURPOSE! Peace through power!

    “You’ll recall that Graham once stated if Trump became the Republican nominee for president, ‘the party would be destroyed and they would deserve it’,” Mason said. “But ten years ago, he made a superseding deal to keep his senate seat in a pact signed in blood, which is generally how these things work.”
