Pete Hegseth, speaking to defence ministers at a lunchtime meeting in Brussels, said Europe had to provide “the overwhelming share” of future military aid to Kyiv – and recognise that restoring Ukraine’s pre-2014 borders was unrealistic.
The Pentagon chief said he was “here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States of America from being primarily focused on the security of Europe”, though the language was notably toned down from a draft briefed in advance to the press.
That had said the US was no longer “the primary guarantor of security in Europe” and appeared to suggest a recasting of the 75-year-old Nato alliance, created after the second world war to protect western Europe from the Soviet bloc.

Good. Now take all your bases off our countries.
And all your dollars we keep in reserve as well.
Exactly this. Fuck off from Europe. Let’s see how you will survive if the rest of the world decides to isolate you.
funny thing is that sentiment isnt exclusive to europe
Dudes about to willingly just let NATO, which we made to contain Russia, not do its job. Fucken idiots. We lost the cold war.

First of all, this is a horrible move.
The Pentagon chief said he was “here today to directly and unambiguously express that stark strategic realities prevent the United States of America from being primarily focused on the security of Europe”,
Second, this means we’re drastically reducing US Defense spending and putting that money into free healthcare for our population, right?
Trumps massive tax cuts for the rich from his first term are almost ending, he needs a lot of money to renew them.

The trump tax cuts for the rich were in the form of commercial taxation. Those were permanent and aren’t ending. The rich get their cuts by reduction in corporate taxes in the form of dividends or increased stock value of the companies they hold.
The tax cuts for the middle class are the temporary ones that are ending.
Well, sort of.
Except we’ll probably see increased spending directed towards Anduril and the like, as well as putting the money we didn’t save into the pockets of billionaires anyways, and then cut even more public funding because “how will we pay for all this 🥴”
US is too busy focused on persecuting women and minorities in the US
Could someone please think of the men? All I keep hearing from this administration is how to grab women by the pussy. For once, could a bunch of sexually deviant women of perfect body shape find me on public transportation and follow me to a dark alley with a deadened and then proceed to properly sexually abuse of my various body parts? Alright! Who’s with me?
What about like a cat call or something when I drive by in my small Toyota hybrid. It’s very economic in gas. I you’re famous I’ll let you do it! Please!
I have no idea what is the point of this post.
Well looks like nobody wants to use and abuse men, only women. I think that’s a double standard. Lol but only a little.
That’s because the defense spending soent on Europe will be spent on creating the surveillance state.
WW2 about to repeat itself.
Except this time we got nutjobs all over the world who don’t give a fuck about Mutually Assured Destruction and they all got nukes.
Good times, weak men
There are always weak men.
In the bad times they just hide more.
they bravado like they dont, but they do.
my true fear here is when the worst of these nuclear assholes finds a way to deter their opponents missiles…
