Summary
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth ordered the sudden cancellation of 11 U.S. weapons flights to Ukraine in February without Trump’s knowledge, blindsiding the White House, Pentagon, and State Department, Reuters reported.
The verbal order, originating from Hegseth’s office, caused confusion in Kyiv and Warsaw.
Internal records suggest Trump never explicitly directed a halt in aid during a Jan. 30 meeting, raising concerns about Hegseth’s interpretation.
The flights resumed days later after National Security Adviser Mike Waltz intervened. TRANSCOM reported the cancellations cost $1.6 million.
Pete most likely doesn’t remember anything he did by the next day 🥃
I wish I could get drunk on the job and waste millions of dollars of taxpayer money without even so much as a write up :(
You basically have your cover letter to the Trump administration written right there. Pretty sure they’re always hiring!
nor he is doing right now, hes always drunk.
And this chaotic regime expects other countries to do deals with them.
Actually, it expects them not to, so it can yell about how unfair that is, and the Trump cult will eat it up.
Quantum expectations. And tbh, we all have them, hence the "not like that!” memes.
Probably drunk.
dont you mean putin issued the cancellation to trump, and then trump to hesgeth.
Sound like Hegseth was instructed by his boss’s boss to do it…
