Hegseth halted weapons for Ukraine despite military analysis that the aid wouldn’t jeopardize U.S. readiness​

The move blindsided the State Department, Ukraine, European allies and members of Congress, who demanded an explanation from the Pentagon.

“… Suspending the shipment of military aid to Ukraine was a unilateral step by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, according to three congressional aides and a former U.S. official familiar with the matter. It was the third time Hegseth on his own has stopped shipments of aid to Ukraine, the sources said. In the two previous cases, in February and in May, his actions were reversed days later.


The White House has defended the decision, saying it followed an ongoing review by the Defense Department of U.S. assistance to allies and partners abroad that began last month.

The review began after Hegseth issued a memo ordering the Pentagon’s Joint Staff to review stockpiles of all munitions. According to three officials familiar with the matter, the assessment found that some stockpiles of high-precision munitions were at lower levels but not yet beyond critical minimums.

The Joint Staff concluded that providing continued assistance to Ukraine would not drain U.S. supplies below a required threshold needed to ensure military readiness, the officials said.…”
 
Does Vance know if he's coming or going?

Meanwhile, I see Russia's Transportation Boss was fired and then found shot to death. This sort of thing seems to be on the uptick. Perhaps, Putin is trying to setup others for the blame of his failure in Ukraine.

At least the poor guy was just shot and not tossed from a 20th-story window of some Russian skyscraper. That seems to be the favorite "fatal accident" method of Putin and his thugs for eliminating people he doesn't like or who have fallen out of favor.
 
So why is Trump finally talking tough on Russia after all these years of kissing Putin's ass? Does he not know he can hide the Epstein files but Russia still has the pee tape?
