Rapidly Depleting Munitions Stockpiles Point to Necessary Changes in Policy

SUMMARY

U.S. munitions stockpiles are rapidly being depleted as the Ukraine war continues. Sufficient stockpiles of munitions are vital to the U.S. defense. Once the stockpiles are expended, the Department of Defense cannot simply buy more munitions—manufacturing takes years. Congress and the Department of Defense must ensure that the U.S. has sufficient stockpiles to meet the challenges of the modern era while working with manufacturers to make the industry as responsive as possible.

The “Nation Rebuilding Industry” Salivates Over Ukraine

American taxpayers must prepare to foot the bill.

The powerful military-industrial complex, with generous campaign contributions funneled via K-Street lobbyists to both parties, celebrated a huge victory yesterday. By getting overwhelming majorities in both chambers to approve a whopping, unprecedented $856 billion Pentagon bill, America’s defense industries are assured of continued prosperity for years to come. Pentagon budgets are rarely cut year after year and generally only rise with time.

Congress Unveils $858 Billion NDAA

The NDAA also includes $800 million in the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative, a program that allows the US government to purchase weapons for Ukraine. But the vast majority of spending on the Ukraine war will come through emergency funding, and the White House is hoping Congress approves a new $37.7 billion tranche of Ukraine aid during the lame-duck period.

Twitter Files, Laptopgate, & Ukrainegate go back to the Euromaidan (at least)

Yes, the New York Post story was censored but the story itself wasn’t anything new to me. They may have ‘revealed’ Hunter’s ties to Burisma but they never dug deeper, as to why he was working for them, nor did they reveal that the US government overthrew a democratically-elected government! A Republican-controlled House may investigate it, but they won’t reveal the true reason, because then they’d be implicating themselves (it was a bipartisan venture)! If anything, they’ll make a big deal of Hunter’s dealings with a now-defunct Chinese company to feed into the China-threat hype and provoke another proxy war! Who wins?! The Military Industrial Complex!

Finally, it will be very interesting to see which “independent”, “impartial” and “objective” members of the Mainstream Media cover the Twitter Files, which unlike all that Russia collusion bullshit, was a real and actionable attempt to interfere with US democracy by covering up one of the most explosive political stories of a generation, not to mention an event that would have swayed the 2020 presidential election.
