Trump administration orders Pentagon to plan massive budget cuts
The directive, detailed in a memo from Tuesday, exempts several programs, including the president's expanded military mission along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered senior leadership at the Pentagon and across the U.S. military to develop plans to cut 8 percent of the defense budget over the next five years, according to a memo obtained by The Washington Post and officials familiar with the matter — a sweeping proposal sure to face domestic resistance and fierce bipartisan opposition in Congress.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump Taps Elon Musk’s DOGE to Audit Pentagon Spending 🚨
President Donald Trump has assigned Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to audit the Pentagon after it failed its 7th consecutive financial audit in 2024, unable to account for $824 billion in spending.
Established by executive order on January 20, 2025, DOGE aims to modernize federal technology and eliminate wasteful spending. Musk’s team has already uncovered inefficiencies in agencies like USAID and is now setting its sights on the Defense Department, notorious for its massive budget and financial mismanagement.
This move has sparked both praise and controversy:
✅ Supporters say it’s a long-overdue crackdown on reckless spending.
⚠️ Critics worry about security risks, layoffs, and Musk’s growing influence over government operations.
Will Musk’s team finally bring transparency to the Pentagon’s finances? Or is this another bold but risky experiment? 🤔

Cancellation of Weapon Shipments to Ukraine
U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth has ordered the cancellation of weapon shipments to Ukraine, triggering concern and confusion in Kyiv. The military assistance, which typically passes through Poland before being transferred to Ukrainian representatives, was abruptly halted in February 2025 with the cancellation of eleven scheduled flights.
Despite the Biden administration’s prior approval of these shipments, the weapons remain stockpiled in Poland due to orders from U.S. Transportation Command (TRANSCOM). Sources suggest Hegseth may have misinterpreted existing agreements and provided misleading information to the President regarding Ukraine policy and military aid.
Reports indicate that lower-level Pentagon staff advised Hegseth to halt the aid. It remains unclear whether this constitutes a complete cutoff or a temporary logistical pause. According to insiders, the White House may be seeking to use the pause in military support as leverage in potential peace negotiations with Russia.
A policy dialogue has reportedly taken place between National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and Ukrainian envoy Keith Kellogg. Since February 2022, the Biden administration had approved billions of dollars in military aid for Ukraine. However, during the 2024 campaign, Donald Trump repeatedly threatened to freeze such aid. The shipment halt coincided with Ukrainian forces retreating from the Kursk region in Russia.
Trump has pledged to mediate between Ukraine and Russia in hopes of achieving a ceasefire. Meanwhile, some U.S. lawmakers are calling for a reduction in overseas military commitments, particularly in the Middle East and Europe, to refocus attention on China.
Notably, Washington has recently signed an agreement with Kyiv securing access to Ukraine’s rare earth minerals—part of a broader “recovery and readjustment” strategy tied to U.S. expenditures in the region. As of now, no new policy on Ukraine aid has been officially announced.
