Hegseth says potential $200 billion Iran war spending request could shift‘Takes money to kill bad guys’
"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Thursday that the Pentagon’s reported $200 billion budget request for Iran war funding “could move.”
“It takes money to kill bad guys,” Hegseth said at a press briefing when asked to confirm the figure, which The Washington Post first reported Wednesday evening.
“We’re going back to Congress and our folks there to ensure that we’re properly funded,” Hegseth said.
The acknowledgment that a massive supplemental request is in the offing could signal that the U.S. — which has spent roughly $1 billion per day on the war so far, per some estimates — is preparing for a longer fight than the administration’s previously floated four-to-six-week timeline."
