this week officials from all 31 of our NATO allies are going to be here in Washington for what is referred to as the NATO summit. At that summit, we will be celebrating 75 years of the most successful military alliance in modern history…
I've criticized both Presidents for not doing enough to control spending and deficit.
We must stop digging ourselves into an ever deeper budget hole, and I think the budget agreement reached between McCarthy and Biden a year ago starts us down that track, maybe not as aggressively as we should, but it's still a start.
