And the democrats are going to vote for it because they think that will help them in the midterms.

This doesn’t even make any sense.
The money isn’t real. They don’t need to actually cut spending to give more money to the military!

Used as a guise for massive wealth transfer from the working class to the bourgeoisie. All meant to prime us with desperation so we’ll fight in their war and work on their poorly built factories for cheap.
The American proletariat is being cast into the role that was filled by 3rd world labor.

What Kamala Harris Meant by “Most Lethal Fighting Force” in Her DNC Speech
For the Defense Logistics Agency, the magic recipe to “increase infantry squad lethality” is a battlefield-ready pepperoni pizza “with a high-heat-tolerant mozzarella cheese.”
You are fucking shitting me
America is not a real country
Yes, these are the kinds of competitions that fascists have.
Are we about to be invaded by the Sith? Why are we wasting our money like this?
The US sees that they’re losing global power economically so their plan is to maintain global power through war. The plan is the same as it was under Biden.
Sith history start with being invaded by Rakata, and unlike most other species, they actually managed to defend themselves. But they lost the later invasion by jedi renegades and become colonised and genocided. By the time of Palpatine, no original Sith population remains, only a tarnished name.
Also lots of infighting iirc.
Yeah but all that was after jedi invasion, we barely know Sith history before. By the time they enter galactic stage in the Hyperspace War they are already completely colonised. Also at the end of said war iirc Cinnagar empress order entire species be genocided by WMD’s, so by the time of SWTOR only few enclaves of them exist and most of the Second and Third Sith Empires are just ordinary humans.
So the Sith are the Star Wars version of Prussians?
Lol essentially yes.
The genocides(by the republic) came later, first they got subjugated and mixed with their conquerors. Otherwise, yes, really horrible history.
To compete with China, and build the “golden dome”, the Iron Dome air defence system for the United States, which is supposed to have space based interceptors.
Yes, it’s as wacky as it sounds.
We live in hell world
What happened to the 50% cuts?
Was always “fake news” based on a reporter misreading a DoD statement, that was about redistributing money already in the budget, not reducing it.
Ah, figures.
good idea im sure the defense industry is not taking you for a ride and rinsing every dollar out of you
wait, I get that the budget is made up and Donald Trump lies all the time, but what happened to like 3-5 weeks ago when he said he’s cutting the budget by 40%?
3 weeks? That’s basically 3 decades, pal
He never said that, that was based on a reporter misreading a DoD statement
@MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net USAID mystery solved
They could’ve had both USAID and higher military budget. USAID budget is tiny compared to the military.
Yeah, but I had a prior conversation with the person I tagged about what would come after the dissolution of USAID, which is why I brought the agency up specifically.
They also want to use fired government employees as a labour base for manufacturing loll
Jesus. Is there an article floating around about that?
Hell yeah, more planes that can’t fly.
And they’ll still get their asses handed to them!
Great investment!
Man the US really wants to establish the ROC government in china.
I was thinking more Iran. As someone on the current megathread pointed out, there is currently a quiet mass buildup of US military assets in the ME while the media is wholly distracted by the tariffs and stocks imploding.
