Ops Brief 009: Daily Drop - 14 March 2025 (Budget Cuts, China Flexing & Military Readiness)

Welcome back to the Ones Ready podcast—where we break down the military circus so you don’t have to. Today’s Daily Drop is packed with budget cuts, military incompetence, and China playing chess while we argue over checkers.

💥 The Pentagon still can’t balance a budget—meanwhile, China is buying up global ports like they’re playing Monopoly.
💥 The Space Force is tracking gym workouts instead of actually figuring out how to counter real threats.
💥 Fighter drones are coming, but will pilots even be able to manage them in combat?
💥 Defense leaders suddenly remember the Panama Canal exists—should we be worried?
💥 The Air Force is begging for funding before its entire fleet starts falling apart mid-flight.

Meanwhile, politicians and generals are still bickering over standards, fitness, and whether or not our military is ‘lethal’ enough. Spoiler alert: If we keep up this clown show, the answer is going to be no.
