Our military budget is insane

Walk softly but carry a big fricking nuclear stick

It is the peace by force philosophy

I don’t agree with it for modern times, but that is where it comes from

Yeah, and it's not spent wisely

A lot of the military equipment is in dire need of upgrade and replacement. Not to mention the need to compensate skilled military personnel to keep them in.

DoD conducting an audit for first time ever. So we're getting there. Be proud and understand MAGA is going to take awhile to right generations of wrongs.

I am a pro-military guy but have to think the amount of waste is massive. Surely we can cut 50% of the waste in the military without hurting any of our effectiveness

Lots of planes and helicopters have gone down this year because of lack of maintenance. Some have said that is because of budget cuts made in the previous administration. I’m no expert, so don’t get it twisted. But if that’s true, we can’t have Blackhawks going down because we didn’t pay for their upkeep.

Our military budget is $600 billion, more than the next 10 countries' budgets combined.

The reserve Navy fighter squadron in New Orleans who is responsible for helping train other units is using F/A-18 alphas and bravos from the 70s and they cant find many parts for their jets. The lack of funding for maintenance, spare parts, and acquisition is disturbing.

Eliminate waste and increase funding where needed. It shouldn’t be a partisan issue.
