The Pentagon has informed US lawmakers that it requires approximately $80 billion in emergency supplemental funding to address expenses related to the US military operations in Iran and other pressing budgetary needs.
Deputy Defense Secretary Stephen Feinberg conveyed this request during recent phone calls with congressional members, according to reports from individuals familiar with the discussions cited by The Wall Street Journal.
Military officials have warned that the armed services risk depleting funds for essential operations as early as this summer without congressional approval of a new wartime spending measure.
Honestly, I just don’t think Iran with a nuke is any kind of imminent threat. Not my downvote btw
Haha there will always be losers who think Trump is actually doing his job rather than just grifting the US treasury for his own benefit. They can downvote me all they want, they’ll still be wrong.
