I think this was proven false by the great investigative journalist Jon Stewart did who did pieces on him drinking puppy blood and not children's blood? Can't find the clip but I did find this:

I can’t get over the weapon they used to kill the Al-Qaida leader. An explosion-free missile with spinning blades shot from a drone? Is that a James Bond gadget?

The "spinning" thing might be a bit of sensationalism. The blades are basically just extended fins that pop out before impact to increase the area. The direction of cut is the direction of impact and the energy is the kinetic energy of the missile. It's basically just a broadhead arrow mounted on a guided rocket.

True. I mean, it’s probably spinning though, right?

Either way. Pretty crazy.

Not surprising that Fox would go to great lengths to discredit anything good coming from Biden and the Democrats.

Sure, everyone that wants can go to Mississippi and they can have it. Build a wall around it.

The media always attribute or blame economic news to/on their preferred party, as though they're responsible for it.

I really don't think he wants to run again, and if he did, I don't think he has control over enough of that party anymore.
