Minigun-Armed #Mojave #Drone Now Blasting Targets At 6,000 Rounds Per Minute

The DAP-6-armed Mojave engaged multiple ground targets in seven strafing runs across two separate sorties on April 13, according to a press release and accompanying video, seen below, that General Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) put out today. At one point in the video, a Chevy pickup truck is seen exploding. The 7.62x51mm rounds that a #Minigun fires are not explosive, but the truck could've been rigged with explosives or fuel inside of it could have ignited.

There's actually a strongly worded clause in the Treaty of Lisbon, §42.7:
"If a Member State is the victim of armed aggression on its territory, the other Member States shall have towards it an obligation of aid and assistance by all the means in their power, in accordance with Article 51 of the United Nations Charter."

#Blanche made it clear that the #defense will continue to deny that #Trump had sex w/ #StormyDaniels.

Blanche called #MichaelCohen a "#criminal." [no duh. Criminals deal w/other criminals, yet point?]

Blanche continued: "He's obsessed w/President Trump even to this day.”

Blanche said Cohen demonstrated that obsession in his public interviews, & “his desire to see President Trump go to prison."

The #defense is objecting to skipping the question about current & past employers.
"That's not fair," #Trump atty Susan Necheles said of being denied the info.

#Merchan asks the #press not to report the answers to questions 3a & 3d on the #juror questionnaire: "Who is your current employer?" & "Who was your prior employer?"

"I have the #legal authority to do it,” he says of blocking the press from reporting info about jurors' employers.
