Michael G. Mullen: “Our national debt is our biggest national security threat.”

Instead of talking about the possibility of rewarding Pakistan with a nuclear deal, we should be enforcing the consequences for Pakistan's bad behavior.

Our debt is our greatest national security threat because it jeopardizes our ability to fund defense.

development assistance is a modern national security tool and that cuts to USAID would increase risk to Americans and to our brave military service members.

A fully-integrated foreign policy requires a fully-resourced approach. Our troops, Foreign Service officers and development experts work side-by-side in unprecedented and ever-increasing cooperation as they execute our strategic programs.
