Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) ripped the Department of Defense’s finances for failing its fifth consecutive audit and inability to account for 61% of its $3.5 trillion in assets.
“The most ravenous Leviathan of our government that devours the people’s wealth is the Department of Defense,” Higgins said in an impassioned speech during a House Committee on Oversight and Accountability hearing on the DOD’s failed audit, financial management practices.
About all we can have since the funds are unaccounted for.
Do you think the pentagon has EVER passed an audit?
Do you think a government paying for black projects would discuss these black projects with an accountant just to pass an audit?
Politicized speculation is not better than an unknown.
Maybe if Congress stopped automatically green-lighting every military expenditure request without question, instead of demanding concise monthy reports on service/equipment purchases AND verified location, the US taxpayer could feel confident that their leadership actually gives a shit about them.
You could certainly form a better opinion based on an overall understanding of military practices, rather than one pulled out of an ass.
Are you saying that representative pulled it out of his ass that America is sending hundreds of billions of taxpayer money to Ukraine?
I’m saying the representative pulled out of his ass an implication that $2 trillion worth of missing assets all went to Ukraine. The stuff that went to Ukraine almost certainly is accounted for.
