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.
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.
