They did an awesome job poking fun at and exposing such a horrible policies.

"Right now we have the executive branch making a claim that it has the right to kill anyone, anywhere on Earth, at any time, for secret reasons based on secret evidence, in a secret process undertaken by unidentified officials. That frightens me." This is how Rosa Brooks, a Georgetown professor and former Pentagon official under President Obama, explained the US policy on drone strikes during a congressional hearing last year.

Thanks for sharing. This shouldn't be in the Rand Paul section though. With that said, John Oliver did a great job on that segment. He is hit and miss sometimes. There are episodes where he seems like he's doing the U.S. government's bidding though, like when he is spreading the propaganda about Russia or ISIS. Then there are good segments like this or the Ferguson segment. I guess that's one of the good things about America though, we can still agree on certain things while being on the opposite end of the spectrum on other things.

That's just symptoms of fragments worldviews, or a team of writers/managers.

The United States has launched a huge number of drone strikes under President Obama.
It’s widely accepted and extremely terrifying.

An EXCELLENT segment. His show is 75% fantastic and 25% face-palmingly bad.

A good segment. Even hard core leftist-socialist-globalists are concerned about indiscriminate murder occasionally.
