Sec. Blinken: "I don't know because we're reviewing it."

Sen. Paul: "You'd think you'd kind of know before you off somebody with a predator drone."

If we take him at his word, they think the w/d was a spectacular success. Yep, I'd say clueless.

Is Rand Paul the only Senator who challenges people?

After this exchange, every single Republican in the House & Senate both should be beating the drums of impeachment for Blinken, but they aren’t, and they won’t. This is exactly what makes the GOP completely useless towards any meaningful action.

He is one of the few who bothers. Most senators prefer a quiet life

Just about, Cruz does too but not nearly as well. Paul is not only super smart he comes to these hearings prepared too.

He’s not clueless...just holding the line on the party talking points and stonewalling Congress.

Rand Paul talking to blinken in a condecending manor like he’s a 6 year old but it won’t make a dent.

To any that have watched or are watching, has he been asked if he was in the Hamptons at a party while this all went down?

That's what made him the man for the job in a Biden Administration. The underlings reflect their boss.

On a side note, isn’t the toothpaste out of the tube already. Some kids and an aide worker. While the Pentagon assured the world that it was some bad guys and secondary explosions.

So, what’s to evaluate?

‘Sec. Blinken: “I don’t know because we’re reviewing it.”’

Biden’s legacy will be I picked the most untalented, incapable administration in history but they were the most diverse which outweighs everything else.

What he is is totally feckless and out of his depth. Compare him with, say Pompeo, to see someone who is in command of an issue and acts like someone who is in charge.

Libtards shoot first and check the target later.

They can’t be trusted with military weapons.

Blinken who is SofS in this joke of an Adminstration is totally clueless or he is a plant of the Obama adminstration.

He never once answered the question on how much U.S. equipment was left in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan withdrawal is a total Biden Blunder that must be denied and hidden from the public.

This exercise is in preparation to future droning of American citizens.

Don’t drone me bro.
