As war rages in Ukraine and China continues to develop its nuclear capabilities, some military officials are warning the United States is unprepared to be dragged into warfare.
The warnings come after it was reported in October that America's military had become weaker over the last several years and is at risk of not being able to respond to outside threats.
The Heritage Foundation, in its 2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength, noted that the military is “weak” and that it was “at growing risk of not being able to meet the demands of defending America’s vital national interests” — marking the first time in the index’s nine-year history that the country has been rated so low.
HERITAGE FOUNDATION RANKS US MILITARY AS ‘WEAK’ FOR FIRST TIME
“This Ukraine crisis that we’re in right now, this is just the warm-up,” said Navy Adm. Charles Richard, the commander of U.S. Strategic Command, according to the Wall Street Journal. “The big one is coming. And it isn’t going to be very long before we’re going to get tested in ways that we haven’t been tested [in] a long time.”

We no longer have the infrastructure. Not too far from where I live there was a huge steel mill that rolled armor for warships in WW II. That mill is gone now. A Target store and a McDonalds is there instead.
Bullshit.
If we were weak we would already be dead.
I think that we would have the same problem Putin has if we tried to DRAFT people right now. Potential draftee’s would just FLEE to Canada..................and, under Biden and his marxist Democrats, rightfully so unless Chinese or Russians were landing in Anchorage.
No more foot soldiers in foreign wars.............period!
But it's so diverse!
Perfect
Our rainbow military is a joke.
I wish they would OUTLAW that picture. It reminds me of just how F’d up things R.
Our troops will march into battle with rainbow flags—and the enemy will die laughing!
With an even more cunning use of personal pronouns that terrify enemy soldiers having to advance against our freakish military.
Not to worry, we are talking about WWIII. When it comes to fighting WWIII, we are as strong as we could possibly be. How many times does this “top official” think we have to make the Russian fused glass bounce? It’s the same with the Russians, they can only kill us all once.
The cool thing about nuclear deterrence—the only way to figure out if it was a bluff is to have nuclear war.
So far nobody on the planet has been stupid enough to go there.
NUKES, NUKES, NUKES…. RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA!!
Our resident WARMONGERS are getting all excited about the possibilities.
And Zelensky goes ‘GIVES-ME-DAT bunch of parts and plans for assembling our own nukes. And, PS, GIVES-ME-DAT more billions of dollars while you’re at it’.
MADNESS!😿🤦🏼😿
Bkmk
Lol. That must be the plan. I just wish it was our military leadership alone who was coming home in body bags. Traitors!!!
I don’t disagree about the infrastructure isn’t what it used to be.
God will defeat us.
What about ‘safe spaces’ where warriors can go cry if someone hurts their feelings?
You, might be on to something. Maybe, some of the so called adults will realize this and start telling the truth about old uncle Joe! Ha... that was a good one. The so called adults are actually traitors... we are in a bad place.
The enemy is going to marvel at the diversity of the woked American military dead.
