      Doing both of those things requires money, you know, the money that was held up by the Republicans who are Russian pawns.

        Yep. Military moving equipment around, even just packing up, costs money. There’s a cost+ contract somewhere that was just waiting for funds before anyone was even allowed to look at the armaments.
