Pete Hegseth and Matt Whitaker are two novices who are only in their position because of their loyalty to Trump.

Matt Whitaker, the U.S. ambassador to NATO handpicked by President Donald Trump who had about as much foreign policy experience as the next person you pass on the street, announced Thursday that the administration will be providing Kyiv with $2 billion in weapons, as Trump proved incapable of bringing a resolution to the war, depsite campaign promises.

“Right now, we have set up a system where the commitments kind of are rolling forward. You know, we have probably another $2 billion or more to bring in the next several months. And we fully expect that that will be done here very soon. We have a foreign ministers meeting at the beginning of December, which will most likely kind of top that off and then, as we get into 2026 the key is sustainment. The key is the $12 or $15 billion that are that are needed to buy the critical armaments needed by Ukraine to defend themselves and to continue this fight at the front line is going to be raised. It’s going to be US weapons,” he said.

Whitaker, the former acting attorney general, told Newsmax in an interview in August that it is “impossible” to get into Russian President Vladimir Putin’s mind because it is “sick and twisted and probably not logical,” but said he is guessing that “he doesn’t want to take on the most powerful military in the world, which is the United States of America.”
