According to Hegseth, Ukraine set to lose military aid

The United States is planning to cut funding in parts of the defense budget for 2026. According to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, one of the areas on the chopping block will be funding for Ukraine. While he did not go into detail about how much would be cut, it is expected to be significant. This appears to be controversial in the Republican Party, with former Senate majority leader Mitch Mcconnell slamming the plan as damaging American integrity. Critics have noted that this symbolizes a growing divide in the Reupblican Party. Hegseth has stated that like Trump, he is committed to peace. Critics of Hegseth fear that his idea of "peace" comes at any price.
