The White House and Congress are talking a big game about the threats posed by China, but when it comes time to put their money where their mouth is, they seem to be falling short. Experts are calling out the Biden administration for proposing a defense budget of $850 billion for the upcoming fiscal year, which includes significant cuts to programs focused on countering China’s expanding influence in the Pacific. It’s like promising to beef up your home security but then deciding to replace your front door with a screen door – not exactly instilling confidence in our ability to defend against the communist menace, right?
The fact that the U.S. military is asking for nearly the same amount of funding as in previous years, despite China rapidly closing the gap in defense capabilities, is concerning. It’s like trying to win a race against Usain Bolt with only one shoe on – not exactly a winning strategy. And don’t even get started on the proposed cuts to critical defense programs. It’s like deciding to fight a heavyweight boxer with one hand tied behind your back – not exactly a recipe for success.
Biden and Democrats are more concerned about financing Ukraine's military than our own!

Defense Spending Plans For 2025 Don’t Live Up To White House, Congress’ Bluster On Deterring China, Experts Say https://t.co/QdQCEK2ldC via @dailycaller— RedNeckPapa (@RedNeckPapa6291) February 26, 2024
The Biden administration’s lack of seriousness in addressing the Chinese threat is evident in their budget proposal. China is ramping up its military capabilities, with plans to have over 1,000 nuclear warheads by the end of the decade. The U.S. needs to step up its game if we want to maintain our position as a global superpower. It’s like playing chess against a grandmaster while only knowing how to move pawns – not exactly a winning strategy.
The proposed cuts to key defense programs, like the production of Virginia-class submarines and F-35 fighter jets, are alarming. It’s like trying to win a war with a slingshot against an army armed with tanks – not exactly a fair fight. We need to prioritize our defense spending and focus on deterring China if we want to avoid a potentially disastrous conflict. It’s time for the White House and Congress to put their money where their mouth is and show that they are serious about protecting the U.S. and its interests. Otherwise, we could be in for a rude awakening when the Chinese knock on our door.
