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.

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.

Re: North Korea
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.

Re: North Korea
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...

Re: North Korea
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'?

Why don't you ask the Clintons, or Corbyn, they're very good in this area.
