Donald Trump
Donald Trump, the United States President, on Tuesday, July 7th, requested the leaders of the House of Representatives and Senate to pass a $350 billion defense budget for "Army Reconstruction" along with the "Save America" law. Minutes before leaving Washington for Ankara to participate in the NATO leaders' summit, Trump posted a message on Truth Social stating: "The United States military has never been stronger than this. No other nation can do what we do (not even close!). This year we set more historic hiring records than ever, months ahead of schedule. Morale has never been higher than this. The unparalleled power of our military was fully displayed at the celebration of America's 250th anniversary of independence, and like our country, the Department of War has never been 'hotter' [than this]. We must keep it this way, which is why when Congress returns, we must pass the Reconciliation 3.0 plan with $350 billion for defense, plus the Save America law! I am asking the leaders of the House of Representatives and Senate to make this their number one priority and ensure that the $350 billion reconstruction budget is removed from the Budget Committee as soon as Congress reconvenes. The Save America law, which everyone is requesting, along with our great Department of War's full budget, can pass very quickly and guarantees.
