My gwad can we elect one democrat who will hire a damn DoJ to go after these f**kers. These Republicans think our government is their personal piggy bank.

At the very minimum spend that money on enlisted on base housing. Literally black mold in southern barracks. Give them free Wi-Fi so they can actually stay in contact with family or do online classes for a degree.

And he will never be held accountable, just like Kristen Neom, but go steal a box on candy at your local convenience store and see what happens.

No Medicaid or foodstamps but they eat lavishly on our dime while they cut our throats. All in the service of billionaires who would see us dead before they had to pay a single dime to help anyone but themselves.

How many of the companies were created in the last 12 months or charged extra for no reason or owned by associates of the administration??
Answer: all of them.

There was a trope (and somewhat true) back in day about „Million dollar toilet seats“ being warehouse. All the conservatives loved to talk about this, for like 30-40 years.

How can you spend that much on crabs and lobsters? You can literally rehabilitate the crab ecosystem in Chesapeake bay with that amount of money.

This thing about losing your funding if you don’t spend it has to change. We have to start rewarding people for being good stewards of public funds, it would be cheaper.

„Some of the frivolous September purchases made under Secretary Pete Hegseth’s stewardship include a $98,329 Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff’s home, $5.3 million for Apple devices such as the new iPad, and an astronomical amount of shellfish, including $2 million for Alaskan king crab and $6.9 million worth of lobster tail. (Lobster tail is apparently a favorite of Hegseth’s Pentagon—the department spent more than $7.4 million total on the luxury item in March, May, June, and October.)
In other pricey food purchases, the government decided to drop $15.1 million for ribeye steak (again, just in September), $124,000 for ice cream machines, and $139,224 on 272 orders of doughnuts.
Weeks later, millions of Americans would lose their SNAP benefits amid the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. More still stand to lose eligibility to the food assistance program thanks to a Republican crusade that added stricter work requirements to the program, piling on paperwork and documentation mandates.
One of the largest bulk expenditures was just for furniture, for which the Pentagon decided to shell out $225 million. That included $12,000 for fruit basket stands, and checks totaling more than $60,000 for Herman Miller recliners. All in all, the agency spent more on furniture in 2025 than it had in over a decade.
In the last five days of September alone, the department blew through $50.1 billion on just grants and contracts. For context, only nine other countries spend that much on the entirety of their defense budget per year. It’s also more than the total military budgets of Canada and Mexico combined.“

$139,224 on 272 orders of donuts. That works out to $511 per order on average
Edit: oh, and all of this (both the donuts and the overall amount)is in ONE month

That equates to $511 per doughnut order. I thought Hegseth was trying to get the military into better shape?

This is the stupid shit that happened in Russia too, and then when they needed the tanks to invade somewhere, the wheels were fallin off the things.
Corruption of this scale rots your country to the core.
With the direction we are heading, maybe it is a blessing that the wheels will fall off our tanks as we try to invade Canada or something.
