Keep upping the cost until the EU countries leave the alliance. One by one. They'll come around though. Accountability will be knocking at their doors. It won't go away. sponsored by Pfizer
If they are only asking for a 30% increase now, that means that the true target is at least double that; +60% or higher. That's just how dishonest bureaucrats operate.
When the US govt. is trying to explain to the taxpayers how much extra money it "needs" for a project the final cost of [insert noble cause here] is always at least double the original asking price. Always.
-"A federal audit has concluded that Boston’s Central Artery/Third Harbor Tunnel (called the “Big Dig”) project should be viewed as “bankrupt” and the projects managers should be replaced. The chief of the project subsequently submitted his resignation.
The audit also stated that the Big Dig “stands as one of the most flagrant breaches of integrity.in the history of the 85 year old Federal-aid highway program.”
When Congress originally approved construction of the project, it was to cost $2.5 billion and be completed by 1998. According to the audit, the project’s total cost could reach a staggering $13.6 billion – $2.8 billion more than projected just six months ago.
When money for the Big Dig was debated on the Senate floor in 1991, Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA) stated, “There is no intention of repeating or coming back for additional resources.” Taxpayers should hold Congress and the State of Massachusetts to that promise..."-

They are running the same scam today, using wind farms in the ocean. Green new dea....I'm meant to say the Inflation reduction act is alive and well in the NE.
Not sure if I missed it, but I didn't catch a target date/deadline in the article...
Seems like their needs to be one or it's a soft threat.
Given the general shitty attitudes of Europeans towards the USA, and the fact they pride themselves on how socialist progressive they are when it comes to public services like healthcare - because they don't have the financial burden of paying for their defense (aka "the fence") - I have a real problem with ingrates that essentially spit in our faces while they ridicule our way of life - "You Americans and your guns ..." - Now pay for our defense! EU = FU

100% and couldn't have said it any better TaQo. - many thanks once again for bringing what you always do to the conversations. -you're very much appreciate friend. Wife and I are hittin' the hay but will reply to anything we see when we get up. -many thanks again for bring what you do to the table here. mean it. 🍻
The majority of nato signatories are occupied by hostile foreign militants, and as far as I know this invasion and occupation happened without nato firing a single shot. Local defense forces yes, but nothing thats a nato operation.
What then is the purpose of nato? I think they exist to kill Europeans. As such I hope for not merely lack of funding but a dissolution, followed by pursuit of all traitor elements and command hierarchies via the equivalent of court-martials in all the constituent nations.
I don't understand why POTUS is running around getting more $$$ for NATO out of these other countries. All that $ and weaponry will only get used by bad actors to do bad things and fuel the war machine / military industrial complex. I'd greatly prefer that the USA get the eff OUT of NATO instead and let the EU cabal scumbags fend for themselves.

Can we just get out of this money-laundering black hole, already?

They can't really threaten,to start WW 3 with cap guns and spitballs.....
They need to build up enough of an army,to get their own asses kicked,so we have to help them again.
Same as it ever was.
THIS.... is both circular and extremely true. Damn is it ever. -many thanks for sayin' it out loud Pb' 🍻
I doubt we fall for it a third time.....
