SO... THE PENTAGON "MISPLACED" $2.46 TRILLION...

For the 7th year in a row, the Pentagon has failed its financial audit, unable to account for 60% of its $4.1 trillion in assets.

Yes... that’s a staggering $2.46 trillion unaccounted for.

If a private citizen failed even a few IRS audits, they’d likely face hefty fines and possible jail time for tax evasion.

Yet, despite repeated failures, the Department of Defense still receives its full $824 billion annual budget.

Conducted by independent auditors and overseen by the DoD Inspector General, these audits, costing $178 million and conducted by 1,700 auditors.

Heads need to roll. They HAVE to be held accountable. We're drowning in inflation while the gov't spends money like it's free.

The Pentagon has just failed its 7th audit and says it cannot account for what its $824B budget is spent on.

So what ? You're crearly overreacting. It's just 2 trillion.
You're clearly just a lunatic conspiracy theorist

There isn’t a single aspect of government that’s run well.

They know how to take taxpayer's money pretty good.
