"It's important that our service members continue to benefit from improvements in communications technology that make a real difference on the ground," said Senator Warren. "This additional funding for the WIN-T program highlights the innovative work happening in Taunton that directly prepares our men and women in uniform to meet current and future threats."
"We demand that our soldiers execute on the battlefield, so we owe them every advantage possible," Senator Markey said. "WIN-T ensures their communications are reliable, ready, and secure so that they can focus at the mission at hand. I thank the Appropriations Committee for recognizing how crucial this program is to our soldiers and the Massachusetts workers who support their communications."
"With this technology developed in our Commonwealth, soldiers have access to innovative equipment that will keep them safe in times of war and peace. This is not only an investment in our community, but also additional support for a proven communications system that has deployed with the Army across the globe," said Congressman Kennedy.
If the Warren wing of the Democratic Party is going to fold to the military despots that have blood sucking straws stuck in the veins of a peaceful American future, what hope is there for this ship to stop taking on water? Warren's endorsement of Hillary does not seem so contrary at this point.
Chris Hedges is right, the ruling elites don't fear the people, and therefore their tools do not as well.
So are those left wing-neocon-policy-supporting-politicians waiting to see if voters got their back before growing spines? Or is the power of the Military Industrial Complex so powerful that the good is only as good as the driven slush? We had better get busy, 'cause if the most liberal state in the US is in the pocket of the MIC, we are in deep, deep poo poo.
