The Pentagon (click here) is putting the finishing touches on the first comprehensive review of US nuclear forces in nearly eight years. It's shaping up as President Donald Trump's signature nuclear weapons initiative in the face of a growing North Korean nuclear threat.
The review, which may allow Trump to put his mark on the nuclear inventory for decades to come, could lead to more than $1 trillion in spending over nearly 30 years.
There have been three such reviews since the end of the Cold War, the most recent in 2010 under President Barack Obama....
That opinion holds water, too. Trump oversaw the largest nuclear build up ever by North Korea. It started with "W"s Axis of Evil and has concluded with Trump's Big Bad Wolf Act. Why is it Republicans don't believe in peace? Wait, I forgot. Peace would mean they would lose campaign financing from the military and nuclear sector. Yep.

The sudden interest in talks may have something to do with Pyongyang's nuclear arsenal. "The North has made significant advances in its ballistic missile and nuclear weapons program so I think they feel a bit more willing to engage in talks now that they've actually demonstrated an incipient nuclear capability that can strike the U.S.," said Taylor Fravel, associate political science professor at MIT.
In November, the rogue state launched a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile

In November, the rogue state launched a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile
capable of reaching the U.S. mainland. Known as the Hwasong-15, it can fly over 13,000 kilometers, or 8,080 miles.
Speaking on the sidelines of the UBS Greater China Conference in Shanghai, Fravel said he isn't expecting much from Tuesday's discussion, which he believes will largely focus on potential
