Americans are questioning the priorities of the current administration, President Biden and Vice President Harris have overseen the depletion of the United States’ critical military weapon stockpiles—transferring vast amounts of arms and resources to Ukraine. At a time when global instability is rising, this decision raises the unsettling question: What if the U.S. were attacked today? Would we be prepared, or has the administration compromised our national security?
Since the onset of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, the Biden administration has sent billions of dollars in military aid to Ukraine, including advanced weaponry, ammunition, and equipment originally meant to protect American interests. With each passing day, more of our essential defense resources are being siphoned off to a foreign war, with little regard for the potential long-term consequences. What started as a gesture of solidarity with Ukraine has now morphed into a reckless policy that could leave the United States defenseless in a grand-scale conflict.
Critics argue that the depletion of our stockpiles is irresponsible, pointing out that key military assets, including air defense systems, missiles, and artillery shells, are now in dangerously low supply. These stockpiles took decades and billions of taxpayer dollars to build up, intended to safeguard American lives and interests. Instead, they are being shipped abroad, leaving the U.S. military at risk of falling short should a major threat arise.
Consider this: if an adversary like China or Russia, or even a rogue state, were to launch an unexpected assault on American soil, how would we respond? With depleted weapon stockpiles, would our armed forces be able to mount a defense, or would we be scrambling to replace critical resources that were recklessly handed away? This is not a theoretical concern; military experts have long warned about the dangers of overextending our resources and leaving our defenses vulnerable. Yet, these warnings seem to have fallen on deaf ears in Washington.
Furthermore, questions loom over the administration’s commitment to rebuilding these vital stockpiles. As inflation drives up the cost of military hardware and supply chain issues slow down production, it’s unclear how long it would take to restock the U.S. military—if at all. There has been little transparency from the administration about how they plan to address this growing issue, and whether America will remain exposed for years to come.
Many wonder if Biden and Harris have allowed their foreign policy ambitions to blind them to the fundamental responsibility of safeguarding American security. It is one thing to support an ally, but quite another to weaken our own nation’s defenses in the process. The risks of this short-sighted approach are evident, and they could prove catastrophic if the U.S. finds itself under attack in the near future.
As the administration continues to prioritize Ukraine, American citizens deserve answers. How did we arrive at a point where our military stockpiles are running low? What is the administration’s plan for replenishing them? And most importantly, how do they intend to protect America from the very real threats that continue to grow around the world?
This reckless depletion of America’s defense capabilities, coupled with a lack of urgency in rebuilding our military strength, is a dereliction of duty. If an attack were to happen tomorrow, would the Biden-Harris administration be prepared to protect this country—or have they left America dangerously exposed?
Americans deserve leadership that puts national security first, not an administration that prioritizes foreign conflicts at the expense of our own defense.
