(00:00):
Let's discuss the National Defense Authorization Act of
2026. This passed through Congress on
a 312 to 112 vote with bipartisan support.
This NDAA is expected to be passed by the Senate and signed
by President Trump with no delays.

(00:21):
Good news is we have a fully funded military, but the
downside is we are funding the world's military.
The NDAA for fiscal year 2026 allocates funds across six major
categories. First, procurement that gives

(00:42):
$162 billion. Research, development, test and
evaluation receives $146 billion, Operation and
maintenance $291 billion for that military personnel and
health $234 billion. Military construction and family

(01:06):
housing $20 billion. Defense nuclear programs $34
billion. The total defense discretionary
spending is nearly $1 trillion. I love the military looking at
it just for face value. I don't have a problem with it.

(01:29):
It's when you start to look through where this money's going
that you start to have some questions.
In the Indo Pacific, we are handing over specs from lasers
to hypersonic missile systems toTaiwan and the Philippines worth
nearly $3 billion. Europe and NATO are putting

(01:52):
restrictions on US force reductions so that we aren't
allowed to draw down more than 76,000 troops from assisting
with their operations. We need out of NATO.
We need out of the UN. We are handing Ukraine another
$400 million of your money. Haven't they spent enough?

(02:15):
Haven't they blown enough away in the Middle East?
We are fully funding Israel's Iron Dome, Arrow and David's
Sling missile systems because remember, they've been using
them. Then we will hand them $150

(02:36):
million to do whatever they wantwith.
There you go. Have a good time.
I thought they were booming overthere in the Holy Land.
Here is Israel's government. Beggin, beggin for more of your
money. That's not America First.
