I hope they got him with guys on the ground not from the air. I hope he had a least a few seconds of suffering.

They claim to have positive ID.
Gee, I'm glad we didn't pull out of Syria earlier.. It would seem all that chaos got the rats scurrying around and there you go.
Continuing to pursue these guys using the status quo only means that you'll get the same results over and over. Flip the script and the results change.

According to Trump, he was cornered into a dead end tunnel and blew himself up. Rest in pieces you POS.

Per usual, Trump is not a great public speaker to be sure, but he spent much of the time thanking others for the work and the help vs basking in his own greatness for giving the green light as Obama did.

Trump said some really nasty things about the guy......oh noooo's ISIS is going to be really pissed at us!!!!

"Trump said that he did not inform Democrat Congressional leaders about the Saturday raid, for fear of leaks that would endanger the troops in the operation.

“We were going to notify them last night but we decided not to do that because Washington leaks like I’ve never seen before,” Trump said. “There is no country in the world that leaks like we do and Washington is a leaking machine.”

Touche

"The military operation was conducted by American Special Forces Delta Force after it was approved by Trump, according to reports, after Al-Baghdadi was discovered by American intelligence in Syria’s northwestern Idlib province."

"Trump said that no American troops were wounded in the operation, but that “a beautiful dog, a talented dog” that was part of the canine units was wounded but brought back for treatment."

I got an idea. Declassify the footage (helmet cam, drone et al). Blur and redact as need be. Release it on PayPerView. Use the revenue to fund the border wall.

I'm a big fan of televising the helmet and drone cam footage and letting people see what actually happened.
Hell, if Trump pulled that assholes head out of a basket in the middle of a press conference he would likely go up 20% in the polls.
Not a single one of the leftists News Media have come out and praised the Military or Trumps decision to take him out. Contrast that with how they treated Obama and his cousin Osama.

Surfed the channels, it appeared all of the regular scheduled programs still running, with the exception of Fox.
