Here’s What’s In The $895 Billion Defense Authorization Bill
The House and Senate Armed Services Committees have released an 1,813-page bill, reconciling their differing National Defense Authorization Act proposals. The House of Representatives could vote this week……..
The House and Senate Armed Services Committees released the new compromise bill on Dec. 7.
It allocates $849.9 billion for programs under the Department of Defense (DOD), another $33.3 billion for defense programs run through the Department of Energy and its Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, and $512.4 million for defense-related activities.

So lets understand this — a bill for almost $1 TRILLION of spending was introduced last SATURDAY and will be voted upon by this coming FRIDAY. It is 1,813 pages long — HOW MANY CONGRESS REPS will be able to read, analyze, digest and understand what they are voting for by then? How much PORK is contained therein?????
Yet another example of ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to keep Trump locked down and unable to govern upon inauguration!
The GOP House should delay until the new Congress and admin are in place. If Johnson and the rhinos get away with this it is a damn shame. How much is allocated towards Ukraine?
It’s my understanding that Trump can veto this after he is installed through the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB)
see the article on the sidebar where the new OMB Chief details his “mandate”. He is a stauch Trump Loyalist

Trump gave no hint of military budget parsimony his first go around. He gave the military everything they wanted, and bragged about it. All the while they ignored him. Perhaps, he’s learned a lesson.
Anything in this budget slated to help detect Iranian mother ships off the coast of NJ?
Or is it all for Israel and Ukraine?
The DoD budget is scandalous. In all seriousness, what the DoD need to protect the USA from enemy attack/invasion is now more than $300 billion.their budget is bigger than the defense budget of the next NINE nations combined.
