Clear signal to our adversaries we are not going to protect other free nations. Trump and Hegseth, two rapists that like hurting people for their own enjoyment 

 

The neutering of the military will not stop Musk's bounty of rewards though

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered senior leaders at the Pentagon and throughout the U.S. military to develop plans for cutting 8 percent from the defense budget in each of the next five years, according to a memo obtained by The Washington Post and officials familiar with the matter — a striking proposal certain to face internal resistance and strident bipartisan opposition in Congress.

Hegseth ordered the proposed cuts to be drawn up by Feb. 24, according to the memo, which includes a list of 17 categories that the Trump administration wants exempted. Among them: operations at the southern U.S. border, modernization of nuclear weapons and missile defense, and acquisition of one-way attack drones and other munitions.

Liberals in 2010:

 

We have the biggest military budget in the world! Cut military spending!

 

Liberals in 2025:

 

OMG we're going to reduce military spending by a target of 8% per year, the sky is falling.

This isn't 2010, is it?

Are you implying we still don't have the largest military budget? Larger than the next 8 closest combined?

 

I'm all for a giant military budget. It just used to be that you guys weren't.

I’m perfectly fine with the cuts, especially for waste like the LCS program.

I'm for being prepared to face off against a growing China, you know China is way more powerful now than in 2010, right? And Russia has invaded a sovereign democratic neighbor, Ukraine was not invaded in 2010

 

You get that?

No, the veteran who just advocated for a "giant" military budget didn't realize that China poses a threat.

 

I also think our military budget has a metric shitton of waste, and asking people to sharpen their pencils after years of funding stupid and wasteful projects isn't a terrible idea.

 

I'd be shocked if they even hit 3%, but having aspirations isn't a bad thing.

 

Jesus, you're a ***** mess dude.

That must be a really great hammer. The vendor must have sold them to the Pentagon under the description "maximum force adjustment device" in order to charge such a premium.
