Thank GOD we Eliminated my Children’s Free Lunch Program to afford that!
I thought he said he wanted no fat soldiers
Waste. Fraud. Abuse.
Or…. Waste Abuse Repeat (WAR)
That’s what it’s good for!
You forgot to rinse!
the corruption has reached such a high level of volume and frequency now that americans dont even care any more. its now perfectly fine to spend tax dollars on steak and lobster. cant pay your rent or car loan or mortgage ? from the other side of the world you look like you are ruled by the mafia and 40% of you think its great.
We care. We just can’t do anything about it. So we dissociate to survive.
Mayhaps we could gather in small secret groups and decide which building look especially cold this winter. Maybe we could help warm them up.
This, right here, you nailed it
Yes as we know that’s how tyrants have been overthrown throughout history, by all getting together and giving up.
Your lack of mental health awareness is disturbing, and dangerous. Do better.
I understand you might look at it from your personal point of view, but you gotta be able to take a step back too.
The most powerful country in the world is sliding into fascism, we are months away from from perhaps the most consequential election in US history and the response from you is “nothing can be done, and thinking about it too much is bad for my mental health”.
Of course I’m simplifying and I definitely empathise with the many Americans who are suffering and struggling, but if you think that my comment is “dangerous” then surely so is your defeatist message?
So much can still be done, and it’s vitally important to keep caring and try and protect democracy and rule of law. Who is the “we” you are talking about? Because surely it’s far from all Americans.
We probably be better off with the Mafia in charge.
the mafia is in charge.

And next year, I’ll be 6!
The pentagon likes making people happy, but they also love Burlington Coat Factory
How’s the back pain fellow millennial?
From my understanding,
Yes, that is what the article says. :)
The military does this as well. I got put on a rifle detail in basic, 6 of us has to shoot several cases of ammo. If the company didn’t use the ammo they would not get it for the next training session.
So why not keep the ammo you shot instead of wasting it.
Because if you have 2 cases of unused ammo they will cut the amount you get next time by 2 cases and you may not have enough.
The ammo can’t be saved/hidden … because it is military weaponry. It has to be turned back in or used (spent casings turned in).
May not have enough for what? This is just a complete waste of money. They litteraly set it on fire in order to get the same amount as last year.
They may not have enough for the rifle range if they get shorted. No, they fire the ammo, they shoot the ammo and turn in the spent casings.
They seem to have enough to waste at the end of every year so i think they get plenty. Wasting it is just stupid. And idk how to respond to that second sentence. It seems so ai, its not like i litteraly meant they were catching ammo on fire jfc.
That’s finr better than nit using all the budget and have it decreased next quarter, and unable to respond when there’s a need for sudden spending increase
That said tho, there are BETTER AVENUE for rhat kind of things. Repurposing old weaponry to send for Ukraine perhaps? But who I’m kidding.
I may be misreading the wording used in the article, but to me it reads like they were getting orders of doughnuts at $600 each somehow. Were they just getting massive amounts of fancy doughnuts per order ?
No. They were laundering public funds.
Honestly feeding military workers surf & turf once a year isn’t a problem for me. I wish they would do it every year they have surplus budget.
They do it before they send them to war.
Or extend deployments. The MoraleMealTM is a flexible all-in-one solution to fixing attitudea.
The expense of feeding the troops a fancy meal was a fraction of the cost of one of the hundreds of missiles they’ve used so far in Iran. It’s just about the least objectionable line item in the entire military budget right now.
It’s cute that you think actual military workers got some of this surf & turf splurge. It was only for the suits on the very top - barely military.
Lol. Surplus budget. It isn’t the late 1990s.
That’s what was in the article.
This is probably even worse than what triggered the French revolution, but the times are different.
$26k in sushi prep tables.
How?
Buying cocaine and claim its surf n turf
The worst part is, that’s actually a plausible explanation.
“How do we know there are drugs being smuggled from South of the border? Well, that’s where we get ours!”
“You don’t understand, it was an order from the big man himself. He made it very clear that we should start the war on drugs.”
Big surprise they’re heavy meat eaters. If they’re not fucking up the planet through politics they’re doing so with their diets.
This whole admin is the type to go get drunk off our money.
Gotta cut all those pesky government jobs! Don’t have the money folks! Healthcare? Na, fuck you too! SNAP? LOL. We just simply don’t have the money guys!!!
Careful Pete, you can get fat on that diet.
that’s great.
any dammage they do to the USSA terror regime is welcomed by the world.I wish this was actually damaging to them.
they do a lot of dammage.
Usually to the rest of the world now also themselves.
Better to have this incompetent evil government than the usual evil one.
