You`re probably right, but the Pentagon budget is off the table. Nothing has changed since the days of the $600 toilet seats, $435 dollar hammers and $7,000 for an aircraft coffee maker.That's not the type fraud in the 100s of Billions GOVT funding being found and discussed 24-7. Worse since the 2020 stream and Covid BS of course. Maybe over $1T FED spending is stolen or wasted annually?
