Pretty sure that's fake. Why would the yemeni military (who are in a civil war against the huthis) shoot down US drones (which are targeting the Huthis, not the yemeni military)?

    And even if if it was true. 30 Million is nothing for the US Military

    Caitlin Johnston has had some insane takes over the years and constantly parrots Russian propaganda, even as Russia was invading Ukraine and up to now.

    I don’t care if us drones are actually getting destroyed but given how naive a lot of Caitlin’s takes are I would want a second and third source confirmation before believing this.

    I'm so glad that we live in a world where the only thing that can't be photoshopped is a blue check mark /s

    I wouldn't call it "wholesome", but it's funny for sure.

    Considering the source, I’m calling bullshit.

    Even if this is true, all it represents is continued demand for the American arms industry. Which frankly could use the work these days.
