Thank you for this Matthew! You and I definitely see eye to eye on this topic. I simply don’t and can’t understand how our government has become so corrupt with no morals or restraint. The bubble most of our representatives live in is so small, they know not what they do to the average American, much less the military that serves us. Shame on them. They will be judged accordingly at some point. None of us are perfect, but striving to do right just simply doesn’t seem to be in their DNA.
I think we need to start cutting “ravenous dogs” some slack, Matthew. This Military Industrial Congressional Complex is completely composed of jackals, and I say completely because the Yea votes could easily slide into the Nay column with the next appropriation, campaign donation, or shift of the winds of war.
As you know, Matt, the Pentagon itself has failed five audits in a row. Five!
If we can't track the gusher of money at the Pentagon, how are we going to track it in Ukraine?
At least Congress is consistent. When it comes to weapons and war, no audits are required.

Is Bernie too dumb, or is he in on it?

"Death as a business model." Thanks for publishing this, Matthew.
Thank you for making this available to us. Military spending and the Senate's behavior are scandalous.
If you or I had a "$6 billion" accounting error on our taxes, you can bet we wouldn't get it waived off casually by the Senate. War is truly a racket.
