Golden Dome: Trump, Hegseth announce $175B missile defense plan

President Trump says the project will cost a total of $175 billion - $25 billion initial investment and another $150 billion to be budgeted over the course of two years.

Trump has requested an initial $25 billion for the program in his proposed tax break bill now moving through Congress.
