If you know the FT headline, you can Google it and read three article free a day this way. Just look at the headline on FT.com, cut and paste it into Google, find the article and read it. :)

No new Executive Orders or legislation has been signed/passed to make this happen. The only thing that has been done in this area was a Presidential Memorandum in January ordering a 30 day Readiness Review and a Nuclear Posture Review.

The only DoD funding request that's gone to Congress this year (in March) was for $30 billion in additional funding, and the only think in that linked to the Nuclear Posture Review was this -

Also, the US Military did not start the Nuclear Posture Review until April, and isn't due to deliver until at least October.

On this - a very funny tweet pwning someone on this subject.

Correction, given Trumps firing nature. He was a US Weapons policy specialist ... Pretty dumb move to post against the US President when he was probably blustering in that tweet, in a public show of might.

All the twit's Tweets are blusters. As long as he keep tweeting rather than actually doing then we might be safe.

It's just a distraction from the Russia issue.

He's self-employed, and a University Adjunct Professor in California, so probably hasn't affected his employment status...

Not really a great rebuttal...What does California have to do with his expertise?

Yes, the sixth largest economy in the world - not a bad place to be...

(but he actually lives in the Greater Chicago Area).;

btw, is 'blustering' a new synonym for 'lying'?

But he lives near Chicago, in the Mid-West.
