Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA) ripped the Department of Defense’s finances for failing its fifth consecutive audit and inability to account for 61% of its $3.5 trillion in assets.

“The most ravenous Leviathan of our government that devours the people’s wealth is the Department of Defense,” Higgins said in an impassioned speech during a House Committee on Oversight and Accountability hearing on the DOD’s failed audit, financial management practices.

    Honestly, are you a bot because holy shit do you not make any sense

    Occam’s razor is that the pentagon is bad at accounting for their assets, not that they’re completely circumventing congressional oversight of the military unconstitutionally, which you seem to think is the case, and that it’s good, somehow.

    Imagine licking the boot so bad that you twist two trillion dollars going up in smoke into a win

      We seem to keep coming back to how I supposedly think or assumptions about why I was asking the question. Either you have confused me for the original person you were replying to, or you’re jackhammering straw men onto anything they might stick to while making a conscious choice to be a tool about it.

      As you were.

        Speaking as the guy this particular individual mistook you for, it’s both.
