But we're going to find out exactly what they're spending a trillion dollars on. Because they sure as hell have not been performing their duty of protecting and defending the Constitution against all enemies both foreign and domestic especially on that last part of domestic.
colonialism lets the government practice new methods of oppression and state-sanctioned violence (disguising it as “civilization” or “liberation”), hone it to perfect efficiency, and then use it on the domestic populace
Hey Elon, what about the $ WASTE of those 2 Super Hornets @ $67 Million each that have fallen off the aircraft carrier Truman in 2 wks & the carrier itself had an accident in Feb.!
Is it because y’all let the Admirals and other top officers go because y’all were afraid they wouldn’t follow orders?!
"Pentagon can't account for 63% of nearly $4 trillion in assets"
Dec 04, 2023 <--
"on September 10, 2001, Donald Rumsfeld made the shocking announcement that the Pentagon "couldn't track" $2.3 trillion of its transactions"
If the US really spends trillions of dollars on defense then why is it chickening out of Europe? With those amounts of investment in hardware and people a simple cough by the US should be enough to have Putin back in his crate, unless it is all a mirage indeed.
The enemy is Putin.
He is killing people now, today.
And every day.
But Trump just scratches his arse and has another snooze.
If you don't like weapons, give them to Ukraine.
You have deserts full of them.
Parked.
Waiting.
Yeah, bit we dont have a dearh star to show for it thankfully. Just elons compensation package of compensation sized rockets always blowing their load too early. Cant even make orbit most of the time before losing it. No wonder the rumors of artificial insemination.
That sounds a lot like Russia were reactive armor on tanks had to be replaced with egg cartons because Putin's cronies put the money into their own pockets.
Debt adds to the GDP, while we are in a Capitalist economy suffering will always be used as a tool to extend profit margins whether it be foreign or domestic
Makes me think of what Smedly Butler used to say... you know... about war is a racket, and that he was a thug for Wall Street, and what Eisenhower said about the military industrial complex and money spent on that was in a sense, theft from a school or a hungry child, etc.
I don't know? The military budget needs some serious secrecy to develop and maintain our defense. Back in the day, there was a lot of upset about $400 hammers while they were actually building the Stealth bombers. My basic distrust of this administration is in cognitive dissonance with this.
There's no way they don't know where the money went. If you remember T-RA took out money his first term for that wall Mexico was going to pay for. Then he was given unlimited funds. His second term, the term,"spending cap" was removed completely.
2026 Bankruptcy?
Wait when did we instill fear in our fellow Americans? I swore that we help with wildfires and would rather pound some beers with our fellow man than point our rifles at them. Plus most of us hated wearing that shit and it was made by the lowest bidder! In a lighthouse of blind people (joke).
I can assure you that they don't pay the average solder or sailor this money. So where is it going? Or is that confidential info that can't be shared? There are too many questions with no answers.
And in the US’s case they don’t need wars or really any enemies because they will still spend more on defense than any other program even though we aren’t at war. But both parties always agree to raise the defense budget, year after year! How many damn guns and bullets do you need?
The previous defense budget was voted in at an amount GREATER THAN REQUESTED by the military. This came after the military failed budget audits (ie: money was missing).
It's actually 21 trillion dollars in the last 17+ years. You know, these are things you can EASILY look up. Don't be lazy. Never complain about a pothole, health insurance, crime, or housing until you get a better understanding about where your tax dollars go or how they are utilized
Did you know, before they dropped the nuclear bomb on Hiroshima, a dude wrote a science fiction story, talking about the odd physics of Einstein being placed into a really big bomb and dropped on a city. He was arrested by some seriously army people...1945 was it?
What would happen if top sports team was breaking the RULES of the GAME like the top political country is doing in politics. Would the sports world just sit back & accept it? If player was not of an acceptable race & player was pick up, taken to foreign gulag? When does it matter?
The MIC was frantic when the old Soviet Union collapsed in the 1990s. The bogeyman they had cultivated since the end of WW2 was gone, suddenly politicians were talking about a "peace dividend".
All that talk vanished in 2001 with the attack on WTC. We had a new enemy and a new Global War On Terror.
Our America, we know, has always “achieved” new levels of “progress” by oppressing “the others” via racism; subjugation; financial servitude, PSYOPs and terrorism; and violence.
Add in neoliberalism with its spawn of the “haves and have nots,” each of whom play their roles of (1) subjugation & amassing exorbitant wealth and (2) struggling for “the American dream” & overconsumption, dreams crushed & languishing m, respectively.
They’re making the bottom has fall out, tying to beat us down so we feel we’re fucked & lose our will to push back.9
But no! This is a travesty. Keep it up! Resist, push for rights and lawfulness for ALL people. Fight these traitorous GOP douchebags with everything we’ve got (minus violence).
This suggests that a very subversive way to defeat an empire is to fake that it has achieved total victory over all its opponents and therefore all the weapons and internal security and all the rest are no longer justified.
alot of that money pays for Extraterrestial endeavors...
all kinds of off world technology and alien research that cannot be spoken about publicly..I say Aliens exist and have been around long before us..we dont care that they exist..might as well just spill the beans and show us..
That's the only one that isn't a grift.
That's the money that goes into the most secretive weapon program. The stuff where they try to keep a war competitive edge, with hidden projects. If it's announced, then other nations can figure out what we are building.
When you have a person with no ethical or moral compass with a tendency to shoplift and no way to legally punish him
You will find many departments of government
will have felt the five orange fingers of theft
before he is deposed
But that Money is Gone Already hidden trust me
60 minutes is crying about SS payments to fraudsters to total 60M over 2 years... so they shut down most of the programs but let this shit go unnoticed
The tariffs that Trump is trying to impose and failing was to cover the deficit, it backfired.
Assets he's after to balance budget are:
Venezuela, Uganda, Canada, Greenland, Panama, Gaza. All failed.
$7 trillion treasury is up for renewal!
Japan, China and others are diversifying their portfolios.
Seriously, look at the first debt clock and then look at the second.
Check the dates!
That's what all the Americans owe over and above the consumer debt.
Consumer is said to be around $400 trillion and growing.
When the Cambrian measures were forming,
They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons,
that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us
and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said:
"Stick to the Devil you know."
Aren't all these so called 'action' flicks just propaganda for the military industrial complex? What I don't understand is why Hollywood just keeps cranking them out. Surely there are better stories....better writers than the hacks they use..not to mention the actors/actresses. So silly.
The world is getting too strong for the empire to dominate and loot. So, it must turn on its own citizens to justify its existence. So, a fascist tyranny is its natural ally, not a democracy. American's elite has declared war against its poorest and weakest people.
Our military budget is ever increasing for a reason.It means we get to update,our defense system,where Russians are incapable of doing the same.It means we can have edge over China&Russia at sea.It means we will always have the most effective tools to defend ourselves.This goes back to the 2nd Amend
It’s why we are taught to hate Russia and Putin. Because the politicians bureaucrats and their cronies need us to have an enemy. It’s a standard collectivist method to control people.
Fuck off it's for secret weapons and we're going to need them because Russians are shit and need to be immolated with prejudice not to mention the Chinese think their shit doesn't stink
The DoD budget is about $800 billion. A majority of it is pay and benefits. I’m not saying there isn’t fraud, waste, or abuse after paying for everything, but it’s less than you think. The DoD is arguably the only thing preventing catastrophic and worldwide conflict.
It’s over 50% if you include medical care, training, and maintenance. Which fair, maintenance is equipment parts, etc., but a lot of that stuff is assigned to the end user anyway. Only 25% is pay. And that doesn’t include civilian pay.
Do they even break it down like that in the line item budget? I would think military would be a separate category with budgeted line items for each category. Retirement is a separate thing from everything else usually.
A TRILLION $ is MISSING? I don’t know about anyone else, but this should set off ALARMS EVERYWHERE! We need forensic accountants to analyze where it went. I have a sneaking suspicion I know. Could they be hiding it? Is this DOGE’s doing? Something is very ROTTEN here.

We the People,
If our government & military, who We pay to protect & defend our Constitution & Liberty won't do it, then We will have to do it ourselves. Our reps & troops have betrayed us. Start up the militias. This is a matter of life & death for everything American.
Revolution is the solution.

Is it because y’all let the Admirals and other top officers go because y’all were afraid they wouldn’t follow orders?!
Now, when they feel impacted by it, they seem to care suddenly.
We caused this. It's on us. We let the addicts run the asylum, and take zero responsibility when they destroy it.

I want NASA to get the department of education budget.
The department of defense can run off NASA's budget.
Just for one year.
No new money, just shuffle the pots.
Just. One. Year.
It’s in Antarctica
We have literal enemies who want to kill us.
We have defense contractors who are corrupt and marking up the price of things.
We also have a criminal organization disguised as an administration engaged in the most corrupt government in the history of the US.
Yeah, that's over a trillion, for sure. And, that figure is from 2017.

Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

Prolly just slid off the deck of some aircraft carrier.
