Trump Allies Warn DOJ Lawyers to Support Agenda or Resign
Senator Roger Wicker, poised to chair the Armed Services Committee, plans to push for a significant increase in the U.S. defense budget with Donald Trump potentially returning to the White House. Wicker's proposal includes expanding the Navy and Air Force, modernizing the nuclear arsenal, and increasing defense manufacturing. He also supports continued military aid to Ukraine, despite potential differences with Trump's stance on the issue. Wicker's detailed budget plan could influence the GOP's defense strategy, aiming for a $55 billion increase over Biden's budget request.
