RT @GlasnostGone: After his deranged attack on #Ukraine's president Zelensky, Trump's said he's looking at range of options in Russia - should he lose the presidential election. But admitted he still feels nervous about the prospect of swallowing anything made in Russia. 😉

RT @dillonrpayton: Now would be the time for our NATO partners to match the contribution or exceed it. If Ukraine wants to go on the offensive in 2025, likely their last available opportunity, now is the time to start funding that capability. https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1839316227891581411#m

🇺🇸🇮🇱 Phrasing here is a little awkward. This $8.7 billion is the security assistance that was appropriated by Congress back in April as part of the national security supplemental (with aid to 🇺🇦&🇹🇼 too). This announcement suggests that the Admin is ready to obligate those funds, including:
▶️ $3.5 billion in Foreign Military Financing
▶️ $4 billion in missile defense grants for Iron Dome & David's Sling
▶️ $1.2 billion in missile defense grants for Iron Beam
If you want more details, I will link my explanation thread below. ⬇️ https://twitter.com/Israel_MOD/status/1839310390343381360#m

@MariaJagcat: For USAI it should be happening right around when the commitment is publicly announced. The replacement decisions have taken months and years.

@Da___Wolf @Rebel44CZ @CavaCavanhas: Unit cost for the missile itself is a lot less than that. Total contract value includes lots of other costs, which are inflated since the production line was barely active.

RT @ThrustWR: Given the complexities involved in defending against hypersonics, the fact that GPI was down selected so early is weird. The program also faces funding challenges. Between FY24-28, the MDA planned to spend $1.7B on the program, but FY25 plans show only $1B between FY24-28.

@Rebel44CZ @Da___Wolf @CavaCavanhas: For the billionth time. You cannot divide the estimated program cost by the maximum approved unit quantity in FMS approval to determine the unit price of a defense article.
The whole point of the FMS program is that orders are bundled and placed in bulk to get better economies of scale. The unit cost for an identical defense article will be basically the same. Where costs get inflated is by associated equipment, services, and any applicable surcharges for the FMS case.

Exclusive | China’s Newest Nuclear Submarine Sank, Setting Back Its Military Modernization
The pierside accident came as Beijing, which hasn’t acknowledged the episode, attempts to expand its navy and project its military power.

🇨🇦Canada

🇲🇽Mexico

🇰🇷South Korea
🇯🇵Japan
These are the countries we should be working together with to counter China economically, not starting trade wars with.

A key point: Every pro-tariff argument centers on China or U.S. manufacturing. No one has made a coherent case for:
1) A 10-20% tariff on every country, including allies.
2) Tariffs on items that could not be produced in America due to different natural resources…
