Republican Alabama -senator Tommy Tuberville found a new word to describe a triangle while arguing for publishing cutbacks at the Ministry of Defense.
The conservative legislator appeared on FOX News on Wednesday evening, where he discussed the massive budget of Pentagon, while the Trump government wants to lower the expenditure in the federal government via Doge.
During the program, Anker Laura Ingraham asked the former university football coach or the Ministry of Defense has to deal with cuts. Then Tuberville gave his eyebrow -increasing answer.
“We have to start in the Pentagon. We have to make a trigon – three sides instead of five sides of the Pentagon, “said Tuberville.
He described the Pentagon as 'far too large, much remaining'.
It will be after the house has passed on its budget blue pressure earlier this week, including an extra $ 100 billion in defense expenditure in the coming ten years.
The last budget of the Pentagon was around $ 850 billion because it has failed seven audits in a row.
Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-Al) shouted that the Pentagon was cut to a 'trigon' while talking about defense spending for Fox News
After he called a 'trigon', Tuberville went out of the Ministry of Defense headquarters, just outside Washington.
“They have what? 30, 40,000 in the Pentagon and 100,000 people across the street in Arlington who make tons of money, Tuberville said.
'We have to cut back and do it for the Warfighter. Help the war hunter equipment, do the things we need, “he went on.
Tuberville praised President Trump's new Minister of Defense Pete Hegseeth and argued that the Pentagon could make the necessary cuts.
'We can get the cuts, but we have to keep doing what Pete has done: cut all bloated and all dei, “he claimed.
'Bring our army back to a murder machine. Someone who can protect this country and our allies, “the former football coach added.

Hegseeth recently said that the Ministry of Defense would use Elon Musk's Doge to eradicate waste, fraud and abuse in the army and that the team would gain access to their systems.
“With Doge we focus as much as possible at the head office and thick and top-line things that we can reinvest elsewhere,” he said in a recorded video released last week.
The Minister of Defense has also said that the Pentagon would immediately start to shift around $ 50 billion from non -decisive programs to prioritize the priorities of Trump's 'America First' defense priorities. .
