So they need to shut the airspace down for (checks notes) 10 days for that?
Nobody should believe anything coming from this administration.

Bro, we needed to shutdown the airspace because the drug cartels, bro. They’re smuggling nukes in the drugs with drones, bro. Pete Kegseth told me so, you aren’t privy to the milbro mil-speak, bro.
Kind of funny he hasn’t shown his face around here in weeks.

Ahh yes, equal incompetence. I'm sure they'll both pray on it later and make it all better.

Live updates: Trump administration ties El Paso airspace closure to Mexican cartel drones
The Federal Aviation Administration reopened the airspace around El Paso International Airport in Texas. A Trump administration official tied the closure to Mexican cartel drones.

Let's assume for a moment that it was indeed a 'cartel drone' or two that was the issue. There would seem to be a level of incompetence or lack of training/preparedness here to issue a 10 day closure without explanation. For hours, letting a closure stand sans explanation of one of the largest airports in the United States for...drones?

It was so funny. Weeks of him ranting at us being brainwashed by the liberal media about oil and then Trump comes out and says “we’re taking back the oil!”

Bro, this time regime change is going to actually WORK, bro!
What a clown. He’s probably too embarrassed to come back.

Nah, that would require some self-awareness and reflection, not things in evidence in his history here.

The congress woman for El Paso has already come out saying they were told something different than cartel drones and has no idea wtf they’re talking about
