Trump To Put His Name On Seniors’ Cat Food After He Guts Medicare To Give Pete Hegseth $1.5T In Splodey Things Despite Donald Trump’s repeated claims that the U.S. has devastated Iran’s military capabilities, intelligence sources indicate that Iran retains significant missile and drone capacity. This comes as Trump proposes a substantial increase in military spending to $1.5 trillion, offset by drastic cuts to non-defense programs such as healthcare, education, and security.

• Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that the U.S. has “decimated” Iran’s military, particularly its air force, navy, and missile capabilities.
• Intelligence sources have contradicted these claims, stating that Iran still possesses a significant portion of its missile launchers and drone capabilities, estimating around 50% remain intact.
• The U.S. military is reportedly expending weapons at an “alarming” rate in the conflict with Iran.
• Trump’s proposed budget for 2027 includes an increase in military spending to $1.5 trillion, up from approximately $1 trillion in 2026.
• This increased military spending is to be funded by approximately 10% cuts in non-defense spending, totaling around $73 billion, affecting areas like healthcare, airport security, and daycare.
• The budget request includes funding for the “Golden Dome” missile defense system and the proposed “Golden Fleet” of new naval vessels, though the latter is not expected to be operational until the 2030s.
• Trump stated that federal government cannot manage daycare, Medicaid, or Medicare, asserting these are state responsibilities, while military protection is the sole federal duty.
