Pentagon Fails Seventh Straight Audit as Annual US Military Budget Nears $1 Trillion
The Pentagon announced late last week that it failed its seventh consecutive audit as the sprawling, profiteering-ridden department wasn’t able to fully account for its trillions of dollars in assets.
As with its past failures to achieve a clean audit, the U.S. Defense Department attempted to cast the 2024 results in a positive light, with the Pentagon’s chief financial officer declaring in a statement that “momentum is on our side.”
Even if it were to pass an audit, it would still be bullshit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_budget#United_States
And the DoD doesn’t encompass the whole of the MIC. The CIA’s money flow is a black hole unto itself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran–Contra_affair
Military industrial complex goes brrrrr
I'm sure the Department Of Government Efficiency or whatever the fuck is gonna fix that right up
Yes, it's gonna change the audit procedure to consist of: 10 minutes interview, a handshake and a stamp.
Efficiency!
