U.S. drops 'mother of all bombs' on Afghanistan, largest non-nuclear bomb in arsenal

CNN is reporting that President Trump is now implementing the "bomb the shit out of them" portion of his campaign promises.

The U.S. bombed Afghanistan Thursday. The so-called 'mother of all bombs," a 21,600-pound munition, was dropped on an area identified as an ISIS base. The U.S. military is currently assessing damage, and no information has been provided on casualties.

Is Trump sending a message to North Korea? Couldn't the sending of messages be more conservatively accomplished with a witty tweet?
