DOD Prioritizes Funding Abortions, Ukraine Over Paying U.S. Troops

 While America's military leadership once prioritized the well-being of their troops, today, it seems far more concerned about funding abortions and never-ending proxy wars.

On Friday, Military.com reported that the military has failed to compensate roughly 9,000 National Guardsmen "The bonuses they were promised for signing up" to serve, with some payments having "Been missing for years." According to the report, the Guard is also "Tracking an additional 3,900 soldiers who completed their service and left the military without getting any bonus payment, though some may have lost eligibility."

A day before Military.com dropped its bombshell report, the Defense Department announced it was shipping another multi-million-dollar aid package to Ukraine.

A little over a week ago, the Biden administration proposed a $105 billion spending package that would force Congress to ship billions more to Ukraine as a package deal with U.S. aid to Israel.

It's not just subsidizing Ukraine that takes priority over paying U.S. service members, however.

Using his position on the Senate Armed Services Committee, Tuberville has been slow-walking military promotions requiring Senate confirmation.

While Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer tacitly admitted he had the power to bring military promotions to the Senate floor the entire time last month after he filed cloture on several Biden nominees, that hasn't stopped Democrats from trying to change the rules to skirt Tuberville's holds.
