Thats the thing, you pull all your troops out of everywhere around the the world, bases, aircraft missiles, and you will still have to pay the full 950+B every year whether they are at home or around the world. It kinda explains my point. Thankyou. Explain what the 900B for the "national DEFENCE budget" goes on and used for. The $900 billion figure (approximately $900.6 billion in discretionary national defense funding) refers to the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and related appropriations for the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and associated national security activities. This is the authorized topline for discretionary defense spending in FY2026 (October 1, 2025–September 30, 2026), which is about $8 billion more than the initial presidential request. (Note: Some budget documents reference broader totals including mandatory or supplemental elements pushing toward $961 billion or higher, but the commonly cited ~$900B figure aligns with the core discretionary NDAA/appropriations level enacted.) This massive budget primarily funds the U.S. military's operations, personnel, equipment, and strategic priorities under the second Trump administration, with emphases on rebuilding readiness, modernizing forces, revitalizing the defense industrial base, deterring adversaries (e.g., China and Russia), and supporting initiatives like missile defense and munitions production. Major Breakdown of the ~$900 BillionBased on summaries from the enacted NDAA and appropriations: Operations & Maintenance (O&M / Readiness): ~$291 billion This is the largest single category. It covers day-to-day military operations, training, fuel, spare parts, base utilities, facility sustainment, civilian personnel costs (non-pay), and restoring readiness after prior-year challenges like continuing resolutions and inflation. It includes targeted boosts for ship operations, Marine Corps facilities, and security cooperation with allies/partners (e.g., Taiwan, Baltics, Indo-Pacific). Military Personnel & Health Care: ~$234 billion Funds pay, allowances, bonuses, health care (including TRICARE), and benefits for active-duty, reserve, and National Guard forces (total end strength ~1.3 million active + ~765,000 reserve/guard). It includes a 3.8% across-the-board pay raise (plus extra for junior enlisted) and related costs."

@JesseBWatters @peteratcmc Made up story. Utter bull from twatters. He lies and makes stuff up like trump

🚨 BREAKING: THE IRANIAN GUARD JUST TOOK THE AYATOLLAH HOSTAGE 🚨 Generals are BLOCKING Peace Talks, holding their own negotiators HOSTAGE while the economy COLLAPSES 💥📉 “NO ONE’S CALLING THE SHOTS” … A COUP IS IN THE WORKS! 👀🔥 U.S. WARSHIPS STACKING THE REGION — ONE WRONG MOVE AND IT ALL IGNITES 🇺🇸🔥

@Fallen_Punk @_InfoGram_ Toujours moins ridicule que les US en Iran 😉

@_InfoGram_ If Macron is serious he has to do more than say "get out." How many condemnations has Israel gotten at this point? And has that stopped Israel from killing children in Gaza and Lebanon or even Iran? No. Action is the next step.

@paulmrichter @_InfoGram_ @Lmj4812 It's not that simple.

@_InfoGram_ @Lmj4812 Hezbollah out of Lebanon! Till they stop shooting rockets at Israel, Israel will operate in Lebanon. Simple as that.

🔴BREAKING : 🇫🇷 French President Macron has given BIGGEST SHOCK to Netanyahu 🔥 He said : "Lasting stability in Lebanon requires two things: Israel out of Lebanese territory, and an end to its land grabs."🔥👏 What a COURAGE, What a LEADER 🔥

@_InfoGram_ @Xeelean Well said Macron 👍👏👏👏

Let's see what Europe / NATO say when they arrive eh ? Clue. They are not there to help the US, that ship has sailed thanks to trump. Trump is now solely responsible for the 20% shortage in world oil supplies. As China is the primary buyer of Iranian oil, importing approximately 90% of Iran’s total crude exports (roughly 1.38 million barrels per day in 2025) I believe China is gonna be the problem for the US . This is turning into a right pigs ear for trump. #BlameTrump #AllTrumpsFault

Let me walk you through the events of the war so far: 1. The United States and Israel tried regime change; it didn’t work. Or rather, they got regime change—Iran became an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps–led military dictatorship. That was not an improvement. 2. The U.S. won an overwhelming military victory with air and naval power and scarcely a boot on the ground. But it destroyed less of Iran’s missile- and drone-launching capabilities than at first appeared. 3. Then there was a hostage crisis. Iran took both the Gulfies and the Strait of Hormuz hostage. The result was a massive economic shock for the world that required a rapid resolution. 4. The choice was between 1) military escalation (boots on the ground or strikes on Iranian infrastructure), and 2) a diplomatic deal. Trump chose 2. 5. In Islamabad, the U.S proposed big economic concessions in return for some kind of change in the status of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, as well as the reopening of the strait. Contrary to the president’s social media feed, the Iranians did not accept. 6. In any case, the devil of any deal will be in the details, not the Truth headline. (When the small print finally comes out, every former Obama and Biden official will be ready to tell The New York Times that it’s worse than the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.) 7. Meanwhile, the Iranians have survived regime change and discovered that closing the strait is just as powerful a lever in economic warfare as they had always hoped. It’s not, despite the Russian quip, an “economic nuke,” because unlike a nuclear weapon you can use it. 8. Where we go from here is fairly predictable. I would be surprised if Trump now deploys ground forces. There will be more negotiation, so Islamabad, here we come. There may have to be more bombing, if the Iranians dust down the North Vietnamese playbook of stringing the U.S. negotiators along. And the final compromise will take longer to be agreed upon than Mr. Market currently believes. The consensus in prediction markets is this will be over by the end of May, but remember: It took Henry Kissinger more than four months to get the 1973–1974 oil embargo lifted.

@lupafin @nfergus They still have the uranium. Mission failed.

@nfergus The regime change would be a bonus. A giant bonus. They tried to eliminate Iran’s capacity of getting a nuclear bomb in the short term and reduce it’s ballistic missiles the most they could. These missions were accomplished.

@Atlas29Shrugged @nfergus Isn't that illegal ?

@nfergus Iran's entire economy depends on the flow of oil. The blockade prevents that. Eventually, they will need to shut down the wells and potentially damage oil fields. The US can be patient and continue to block their ports and slowly strangle them without boots on the ground.

@RVal1995 @nfergus You deluded fool.

@nfergus Country gets leveled Entire government blown up But you say they have the United States right where they want them? Oh, and throw in "Obama was right" to make sure no one takes you seriously

@nfergus @FraserNelson No more negotiations ( demands ) state the Iranians. @realDonaldTrump Release the 20 point one sided extortionate "peace" deal for all to see how bad it realistically it is.

Yet another trump failure in the wake of so many. Even an angel would not accept trumps one sided handcuffing 20 point " peace " deal. I expect it is totally unacceptable to anyone that's why trump won't release details of it, and people would say that is totally unacceptable. @realDonaldTrump Release the 20 point one sided extortionate "peace" deal for all to see how bad it realistically it is.

@Its_ereko Well done Japan 👍🇬🇧🇯🇵

🇯🇵🚨 URGENT: JAPAN HAS JUST ABANDONED 80 YEARS OF PACIFISM. Lethal weapons exports are now allowed. Missiles. Jets. Warships. The post-WWII ban is dead. The government calls it a "policy shift." The people call it what it is. A betrayal of Article 9. A gift to the empire. A green light for Japanese weapons to kill overseas. No more pacifism. No more restraint. Japan is now an arms dealer. The empire's newest supplier. The people are watching. 90 stood in front of the Prime Minister's Office today. More will come. The lifting of the ban is decided. But the resistance is not. Every missile exported. Every jet sold. Every warship delivered. The people will raise their voices. The world should raise its alarm. Japan is no longer just defending itself. It's arming others. That is not peace. That is profit. Blood profit. The pacifist dream is over. The nightmare is just beginning. Share this. The world needs to know what Japan just became.

@Its_ereko @k1482 Shame they don't do that to Ukraine....

🚨🇷🇺🇱🇧 BREAKING: RUSSIA JUST BEAT THE EMPIRE TO LEBANON. 27 tons of humanitarian aid. Mobile power stations. Food. Tents. Blankets. Med kits. Sent by Moscow. While the West talks, Russia acts. The Middle East is burning. Lebanon is bleeding. The US sends bombs. Russia sends supplies. That's the contrast. That's the message. The empire talks about humanitarian values. Russia delivers humanitarian aid. The world is watching. And taking notes. Share this. The global balance of power is not just about weapons. It's about who shows up when people are suffering. Today, Russia showed up. The empire was absent. Again.

Iran did not request a ceasefire extension -Iranian state media

Home safe 😊

@Rachelle_Hulme @Addyspectre1 @dommedebbiexx @m_jones_1797 Practice my dear practice 😉😉😉

I knew it,this is all trump lies the Iranians were never gonna be there. He is doing to Iran what he was and still is to @ZelenskyyUa and Ukraine a one sided completely unacceptable blackmailing "peace" deal then say both are being uncooperative, and it all their fault. Notice you never see this 20 point " peace " plan from trump, because, even jesus would find 19 points totally unacceptable.

@mitchUAPknicks @JamesOKeefeIII @Stylzbeats Fair comment 👍 "Investigation still going on per latest us ststements." I am wondering if this investigation will ever be released

Investigation still going on per latest us ststements. Anyone saying otherwise is lying on behalf of the deep state. But my point was, a nuclear scientist would have no “need to know” about anything relating to the school bombing, and anyone believing that needs to have their head examined.

BREAKING NEWS: Top U.S. Nuclear Chief Caught LEAKING Sensitive National Security Information to Stranger, Reveals Army Chemist Was Exposed to U.S. Chemical Nerve Agent, Confirms U.S. Strike Killed Children in Iran, Discloses U.S. Plans to ‘Kill Iran’s New Supreme Leader’ “If he [Mojtaba Khamenei] doesn't change his ways, yeah, they're [United States] going to kill him.” “The easiest way to get intelligence…send a pretty girl, talk to the guy…I have to resist your eyes.” “Your eyes have mesmerized me so much…Almost like you're an intelligence.” Andrew Hugg, a U.S. Chief of Chemical Nuclear Surety, was caught on hidden camera casually revealing sensitive information to a stranger in a public restaurant. Andrew Hugg, Chief of Chemical Nuclear Surety, in charge of nuclear and chemical safety was caught on hidden camera releasing information regarding the U.S. Nuclear Information. He claims the U.S. still possesses nerve agents and says a U.S. Army chemist recently died from exposure. He also acknowledges U.S. airstrikes have killed children in Iran, calling it “collateral damage,” and revealed to the journalist how nuclear launch decisions are made in real time. Hugg described how the United States could assassinate Iran’s next leader if he “doesn’t change,” while admitting the U.S. has no plans to use nuclear weapons: “We’re not going to nuke anybody.” All of this was casually revealed to an undercover journalist in a restaurant. This raises serious questions about this official's judgment, security, and what’s really happening behind closed doors. We have reached out to the Pentagon and U.S. Army for comment and they are working on a response. @USArmy @DeptofWar
