US leaving NATO moves closer to Reality after Lawmakers just introduced Bills doing so. What now for the Pinoy Doggies of the US?
What now, Brownie and Bigo, and all of the other Pinoy Doggie Arf-Arfs of the United States (US), as the Prospect of the US leaving NATO has now moved closer to reality after US Lawmakers just recently introduced Law Bills doing so.
Here is are the Text of the Press Release of one of the said Lawmakers: "Washington, D.C.- Today, Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) introduced HR 6508, the NATO Act, to remove the United States from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
“NATO is a Cold War relic. We should withdraw from NATO and use that money to defend our own Country, not Socialist Countries. NATO was created to counter the Soviet Union, which collapsed over thirty Years ago. Since then, U.S. participation has cost Taxpayers trillions of Dollars and continues to risk U.S. involvement in Foreign Wars. Our Constitution did not authorize permanent foreign entanglements, something our Founding Fathers explicitly warned us against. America should not be the World’s Security Blanket — especially when wealthy Countries refuse to pay for their own defense.”
The NATO Act:
Requires the President to formally notify NATO of U.S. withdrawal under Article 13 of the North Atlantic Treaty.
Concludes that NATO’s original Cold War purpose no longer aligns with current U.S. National Security interests.
Finds that European NATO Members have adequate economic and military capacity to provide for their own defense.
Prevents use of U.S. Taxpayer funds for NATO’s common budgets, including its civil budget, military budget, and the Security Investment Program.
Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) has introduced companion legislation, S.2174, in the United States Senate."
