America needs to drastically rein in defense spending to tackle the $33 trillion national debt. In this episode, Burke proposes a "simplification plan" to streamline the bloated military-industrial complex, close redundant global bases, and scale back nuclear arsenal costs. Burke argues that the U.S. can increase capabilities while slashing the current $800 billion defense budget by $200 billion annually through smart prioritization. Challenging the next president to treat citizens as "adults," he frames defense overspending as a critical "puzzle" requiring bold solutions. Drawing from "A Bold Plan for America," Burke seeks to educate and inspire transformational change.
