Summary

For the first time since the report has been issued, the Heritage Foundation's 2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength has issued a grade of 'weak' and describes it at a point of not being able to 'defend our national interests.' Some reasons for the grade are the increasing recruitment problems, budget cuts and even inflation. FOX's Jeff Monosso speaks with Ret. Lt. Col Dakota Wood, senior research fellow for the Heritage Foundation's Defense Programs, about the report's findings, some of the root causes and how we can change the current situation.
