Charlie Kirk criticized the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) on his show, revealing a list of congressmen, including the many Republicans, who supported the $866 billion allocation to the Department of Defense.
“We are not doing anything to make the military the finest fighting force on the planet,” Kirk said, adding that it’s “total and complete capitulation.”
Kirk deemed the NDAA a “disaster,” arguing it failed to address “woke nonsense” and contributed to a decline in military enrollment. Despite claims that the NDAA is essential for funding the military, Kirk emphasized the absence of concessions to eliminate elements like pro-LGBT initiatives and anti-white sentiments.

147 Republicans voted for this act.
The list of congressmen who voted for the NDAA is below:
