“Historic Funding Increases to Secure Peace Through Strength. The Budget builds upon the historic successes seen in FY 2026, which included leveraging both discretionary and mandatory appropriations to achieve a historic $1 trillion overall defense topline. For FY 2027, the Budget proposes $1.15 trillion in discretionary (28 percent increase) and $350 billion in mandatory bringing total resources for defense to $1.5 trillion (including a 44 percent increase for the Department of War (DOW)). This amount exceeds even the Reagan buildup by approaching the historic increases just prior to World War II, a level that recognizes the current global threat” and blah blah blah says the defense spending portion of the 2027 White House annual federal budget proposal, issued Friday.
“The Budget eliminates higher education programs for Native Hawaiians, which are another example of a discriminatory race-based program. DOJ issued an opinion that the race-based portions of this program are unconstitutional and inseverable from its surrounding statutory schemes so it must not be continued,” says another item in the section titled “Cuts to Woke Programs”, and the tip of the iceberg for overhyped “savings” equivalent to the cost of a single missile defense battery for the Qatari royal palace and other highly sensitive targets within range of Iranian drones and projectiles.
