US BREAKING: Trump FORCES $25B Golden Dome Trial Before 2028Vote|Political Pressure to FAIL Project?

The Pentagon has confirmed the long-anticipated test date for Trump's billion-dollar "Golden Dome" missile defense system—just weeks before the 2028 election. Announced in May, Trump’s campaign-era promise aims to create a space-based shield against missile threats. The timing raises eyebrows, with defense experts questioning if this is military strategy or political theater. Led by Gen. Michael Guetlein and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, the program faces tight deadlines, scaling challenges, and skyrocketing costs. With $25B already allocated, the pressure to deliver—both technically and politically—is mounting. #GoldenDome #TrumpDefense #MissileDefense #2028Election #NationalSecurity #TrumpAgenda #SpaceShield #PentagonTest #FTIX #USPolitics #DefenseStrategy #TrumpCampaign #ElectionTiming #TrumpNews #MissileThreat #USMilitary #PoliticalStrategy #WhiteHouse #TrumpVsPentagon #BallisticMissiles #MilitaryFunding #PeteHegseth #MichaelGuetlein #BillionDollarTest #DefenseNews #SpaceDefense #TrumpTrialTest #PentagonMove #USDefenseShield #TrumpSpeech ~ED.194~HT.408~GR.125~

US Sends War Warning to China: Pentagon Honours Marcos as Philippines Vows to Defend South China Sea

Tensions in the South China Sea are escalating as the United States reaffirms its military alliance with the Philippines.

Hegseth’s Pentagon CRISIS: Sixth Senior Official QUITS Under Hegseth’s Lead| Fired Or Silenced? [Video]

Hegseth’s Pentagon CRISIS: Sixth Senior Official QUITS Under Hegseth’s Lead| Fired Or Silenced?

The Pentagon is facing yet another high-profile departure as Justin Fulcher, a senior advisor to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, is set to step down after only six months on the job. Fulcher is now the sixth senior official to leave the department since Hegseth's controversial appointment, raising serious questions about the stability and leadership within one of the world's most powerful military institutions. The news, first reported by CBS News as a firing, was quickly disputed by the Pentagon, with spokesman Sean Parnell calling the claim "false" and unfair to Fulcher. This wave of resignations comes amid a turbulent tenure for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. He has been at the center of multiple scandals, most notably a major security breach involving a Signal chat group discussing sensitive military operations, such as strikes in Yemen. In an unprecedented move, Hegseth reportedly added an editor from The Atlantic to this top-secret chat, a scandal that sent shockwaves through the defense community. Justin Fulcher himself was no stranger to conflict within the Pentagon's walls. He reportedly stormed out of a heated meeting with the Pentagon's DOGE team in April and later claimed the Pentagon Force Protection Agency was actively searching for him. This incident allegedly infuriated Hegseth, who then personally confronted DOGE team lead Yinon Weiss for targeting his advisor. Despite the drama, Fulcher's departure statement was diplomatic, calling his time working with the Pentagon's personnel "incredibly inspiring." This video breaks down the full story behind the chaos at the Pentagon. #PeteHegseth #Pentagon #USPolitics #BreakingNews #USNews #JustinFulcher #WorldNews #LatestNews #OneindiaNews #AmericanPolitics Also Read Suicides in US Military Increased in 2023, Highlighting Ongoing Mental Health Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/suicides-in-us-military-increased-in-2023-011-3987665.html?ref=DMDesc Ex-Pentagon Spy Claims Proof Of Alien Life: US Govt In Possession Of 'Bodies, Vehicles Of Unknown Origin' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ex-pentagon-spy-claims-proof-of-alien-life-ug-govt-has-bodies-vehicles-of-unknown-origin-3916083.html?ref=DMDesc Lawmakers Press Pentagon to Ensure Military Stays Out of Election Politics :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/lawmakers-urge-pentagon-to-keep-military-apart-from-politics-011-3908607.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~

Hegseth RIPS Microsoft for Betrayal |Chinese Working on U.S Defense Systems, Microsoft Admits Breach

Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth confirmed that the Defense Department’s cloud services were previously supported by China-based engineers, raising national security concerns. Microsoft admitted to using teams in China for technical assistance but assured that no China-based staff will be involved moving forward. ProPublica revealed that limited U.S. oversight left critical Pentagon systems vulnerable, with personnel lacking the expertise to manage them effectively. Amid growing tensions with Beijing, Microsoft has pledged stricter controls to secure DoD cloud services against potential foreign risks. #Pentagon #Microsoft #China #CyberSecurity #Defense #NationalSecurity #DoD #CloudServices #TechNews #DataSecurity #MilitaryTech #PeteHegseth #FrankShaw #ProPublica #USChinaTensions #SecurityBreach #CyberThreats #DefenseCloud #MilitaryCloud #MicrosoftChina #TechControversy #USGovernment #CloudComputing #SupplyChainSecurity #Outsourcing #CyberRisk #WashingtonDC #ChinaUS #PentagonNews #MicrosoftUpdate #BreakingNews Also Read Microsoft Introduces BioEmu, An Innovative AI System To Enhance Drug Discovery :: https://www.oneindia.com/artificial-intelligence/microsoft-introduces-bioemu-an-innovative-ai-system-to-enhance-drug-discovery-011-7798013.html?ref=DMDesc Microsoft Layoffs: Thousands Affected In Global Job Cuts :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/microsoft-layoffs-thousands-affected-in-global-job-cuts-011-7789559.html?ref=DMDesc Xbox Division in the Firing Line as Microsoft Plans Fourth Layoff in 18 Months :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/xbox-division-in-the-firing-line-as-microsoft-plans-fourth-layoff-in-18-months-011-7783751.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~
