Using F-16's for intercepting attack drones is not a sustainable use-case for a high-value supersonic fighter aircraft.
Ukraine needs either cheaper, longer range missiles than what's currently available, or reusable interceptor jet drones that can double as glide-bomb carriers.

Fun fact: the U.S. House can sue a sitting president with a simple majority vote.
If the Democrats retake the chamber, they should do more than just "investigate" Trump's corruption.
They should sue him in federal court for the illegal ballroom, Qatari jet, and more.
