White House Seeks 40 Percent Increase in Military Spending - The New York Times

The White House is seeking a 40 percent increase in military spending, which is causing concern among lawmakers and defence experts. The proposed increase is part of a larger budget proposal that aims to boost the country's military capabilities.
