SANCTIONED 42: US Military Budget Over $1 TRILLION as NATO Chief Warns Russia WINNING Arms Race

The U.S. Military budget will soar to over $1 TRILLION in 2026, after another $150 Billion in funding was included in Trump’s so-called ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’ This comes amid concerns for both U.S. weapons stockpiles and NATO’s overall military readiness, as Secretary-General Mark Rutte warns Russia’s military is “reconstituting itself at a pace and a speed which is unparalleled in recent history,” and Moscow is now producing three times as much ammunition in three months as the whole of NATO is doing in a year.”

On this week’s episode of ‘SANCTIONED w/ Rachel Blevins,’ an exclusive weekly series for my paid subscribers, we look at how the U.S. and NATO are shifting their messaging to present the united front between Russia and China as a threat to “security,” and why the goal has never been to fully “win” a war against the pillars of the multi-polar world.
