Sure, why spend money on things that could one day help save lives or the planet itself, but instead spend it on golf trips for the Cheeto president, who after playing golf for 50 years, still has to cheat at the game. Golf is played on the Honor system, I've seen pros call penalties on themselves.
well..... science is not something they value. Hegseth et al are a danger to national security. To say they 'don't do climate change crap' is especially short sighted. Climate change however will effect the DOD whether he likes it or not. And the potential effects on national security are immense.
Caesar Augustus after I've explained climate change to him:
"So the army's access to water, the field conditions, the position of the enemy, the terrain itself will all shift over the next century? Verily every scholar must be found to study this! The empire depends on it!"
The military doesn't study these things because they're woke or whatever. They study them because knowing about them could be pressed for military advantage. They study them because understanding reality is helpful in a war.

Hegseth: "Sounds woke."
