A Pentagon spokesman declined to comment on Mr. Hegseth’s decision.
Mr. Trump has told reporters that troop cuts in Europe would go even deeper. He has insisted that “we’re cutting a lot further than 5,000” service members from Germany and threatened to also pull troops out of Italy and Spain, countries that the president says have not supported the administration’s goals in the U.S. war against Iran.
Idiots.
Shhhhh, don’t say anything. They might stop
I mean, reasonable drawdowns = good; angry baby breaking things = bad.
We only get the one kind at the moment. :(
This is a gift to Putin
No it isn’t. American troops aren’t reliable for protection against authoritarianism now anyway

I’d honestly love to sit on the sidelines with a bucket of popcorn and watch Poland absolutely fuck Putin.
I wouldn’t obviously, because NATO article V would provoke us all to action and we wouldn’t be on the sidelines, we’ll be defending our allies whatever the fuck America is doing
What are European police going to do once the American soldiers are gone?
Keep persecuting Roma.
Lucky Poland!
The pettiness of it all is so stupid. Moving American troops out of Europe right now, when Putin can’t do anything about it, is a gesture without consequence. Or, rather, the consequence is just that Europeans have ample warning that America cannot be trusted.
I remember the days when everybody was convinced that Trump was playing 5D chess. I think by now we know he can’t even play 1D checkers.
trump trying to show good faith after, hungarys orban election lost, which was funding CPAC and BEN shapiro.
…to pay for AI infrastructure
Have you seen how effective AM was? Think about how great of a weapon it would be for America’s National security if we just went all in on creating a super AI in charge of everything.
Makes no difference, unless you are considering it a positive development, then you might have a point possibly. The US honoring article 4 has become a naive thought beyond comprehension.
