Mike Waltz’s Response to “Not Enough Ammunition” Claims

Mike Waltz has publicly dismissed reports that American weapons stockpiles are critically low, saying the U.S. military has “everything that it needs” to conduct its current campaign against Iran.

In short, Waltz’s position is that there is no current shortage, that the leaks are politically damaging, and that the administration will hold those responsible accountable.

Stating those spreading the idea of a shortage “deserve to be in jail”

Waltz argued that the Trump administration’s new defense budgets, cheaper munitions, and new technologies mean the military is “rebuilding our great military” and said the administration is pursuing leak investigations into those spreading the “nonsense” Crooks and Liars.
