@ebrim5013 The Senate and House Armed Services Committees are more dialed-in than you realize. They get regular classified briefings on all of this, since they are fighting to steer or maintain contracts in their States and districts. They take US military superiority for granted, treating the defense industry as more of a jobs program, even though it isn't among the top 20 industries in revenue in the US. Many of the members of Congress are acting in cohort as Russian and Chinese moles, since they got into office with schemes from Council for a Livable World and CPUSA re-branded under Democratic Socialists of America. One of the strategies the Soviets devised was to waste as much US money on unrelated expenses that deplete money from being spent on the weapons they hate and fear. Congress and multiple White Houses have done a bang-up job of that. Look at how the Bush and Obama White Houses killed the F-22, but funded MRAPs.

Biden was working for the Soviets on reducing our strategic weapons as a mole Senator from 1973-onward. After successfully killing the B-1A program, they shifted his efforts to SALT II. After years of force drawdown under Bush, Clinton, Bush, and Obama, Trump WH supported development of these more regionally-significant weapons systems. Biden has only been a blockade against US weapons development, not an enabler. Biden hopes people don't remember his stance on the US military.

I've been following Peter's forecasts and assessments since the 2000s when he was with STRATFOR. He's way off the mark on this one. Biden has actively been working for the Soviets since they got him into the Senate in 1972. He was one of their lead moles on killing the B-1A program and trying to neuter the US under SALT II. Many senior military leaders have been calling for upgrading and developing new theater ballistic missile and missile defense systems for decades, and finally got traction under the Trump WH. Some of those programs are just barely coming to fruition, despite the geriatric pedophile's presence in the WH, definitely not because of it. US strategic forces were neglected as he says from Bush41 through Obama. Under Trump WH, they finally got the attention they deserved. That included hypersonics, ships, increased production of F-35s, P-8A Poseidon, more nukes, and strategic integrated missile defense programs. What Peter claimed here is directly opposite of reality. You can look right now and see a list of articles discussing the Biden WH reversals on Trump strategic weapons programs.

Weird. I just watched my comment get deleted.
