Not probably wasted, surely wasted. We want a strong military but no reason it needs to be wasteful.

[mandygershon]

Yes! I want to see where that money went. I also want to see what they know about UFOs. It's ABOUT TIME!

[eldridgedavis]

Exactly. Cut the military budget IMMEDIATELY. Or your just not serious.

[Ghostrider-ulxn]

Follow the money, and you'll uncover the greatest mystery in human history classified right under your nose all this time..

How much have 800 deep underground military bases, fully stocked cost US tax payers ???

[jamessutton]

Instead of paying thousands for a new toilet or 400 for a hammer. Send someone to the hardware store and save the taxpayers a bunch of money.

In November of 2024 the Pentagon failed it’s 7th audit in a row, unable to account for how it’s $824 billion budget was spent.

[morganfbilbo]

Long overdue! Since the Pentagon has not been audited, then DOGE is doing the job!

[realsparkyvibes]

It's like your grandparents were running the government.

[GolemDude]

Half the military budget! Make the pentagon a trapezoid

[jnywd]

The boss man over at The Pentagon already gave his okay. He wants some financial advice.

[MiloandLouLou]

I want the wasteful money go to the veterans in need.

[knttnyv]

I want Elon to look at CA tax wastes. Let's start with the CARB and Costal Commissions.
