NBC News: "The Defense Department was funded with a budget of nearly a trillion dollars, but it is running out of cash, according to three U.S. officials, a former defense official, outside experts and two congressional staff members."
Friend, Republicans in Congress handed Trump the largest Pentagon budget in American history.
He proceeded to blow a huge hole in that budget with his stupid war with Iran, flushing as much as $200 billion down the drain, according to some estimates.
And who benefits from that spending? Defense contractors. Not regular Americans. Certainly not working folks who are struggling to get by.
Every one of these needless, endless wars is a massive transfer of wealth from the American people into the hands of the military-industrial complex.
If you agree that that money would be better spent here at home, we need you in this movement.
If you agree that we should be prioritizing healthcare, housing, and education over guns, bombs, and destruction, we need you in this movement.
Let’s make this year’s elections a referendum on MAGA’s pro-war, billionaire-first agenda. I’m asking you to join me as we fight to reject that agenda with an overwhelming victory for our progressive movement at the polls. And that starts right here in Minnesota, where Election Day is just around the corner.
Will you make a contribution to support my campaign as we fight for a new way forward for our nation? We must bring the era of endless, needless wars to an end and finally invest in our people here at home. Your donation supports everything our movement does to deliver on that vision.

The American people deserve better than watching their hard-earned money flushed down the drain by the war-obsessed Republican Party.
In solidarity,
Ilhan Omar
