This makes zero sense. Increased spending and more commitment from allies? Wouldn't increased allied spending lead to less spending from your own military?

Money from foreign aid is being redirected to the DOD.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.
also the thread saw that Trump's nominee for SecNavy formally dropped, right?

That makes three nominees that have now dropped out: Labor, Army, Navy.

54 billion in aid to our NATO allies to become more self reliant by buying our tanks.

The active army is growing back in size for god knows what reason (its war) but I'm guessing most of the money is going to defense contractors building new toys like always.

quote:

"We all need answers," Bush told NBC’s "Today" on Monday regarding the Trump campaign’s involvement with Russia prior to the November election. He declined to say whether he thinks a special prosecutor should be named and said he trusted congressional committees to make that call. "You’re talking to the wrong guy," he said, quipping that he’s "never been a lawyer."

I love her a whole lot but she's had a lifetime of deep south idiocy drilled into her head (to the point where she insisted on calling it "The War of Northern Aggression" once) and she's finally realizing things like "women should not have to fear rape 24/7" and "Trump is literally going to burn the whole world down, I thought it was just going to be a bunch of awful bills"

Also she's said "not all police are bad" lol

we have every capability in the world to "win" wars, it's just the lovely execution because they're all in deserts and mountains which isn't really the fault of the troops
