Massive Pentagon Budget EXPOSES GOP Hypocrisy
(00:00.472)
You know, I’m consistent. try to be as consistent as I possibly can going after both sides. I hate government waste, whether it’s Republican, whether it’s Democrat. We have railed for a long, long time against all of the nonsensical Pentagon spending, all of the waste, all of the ridiculous government contracts, the F-35, one thing after another, after another. And in fact, it wasn’t that long ago
where Elon Musk was highlighting some of the waste and fraud that was taking place and going on at the Pentagon. Well, I, you know, again, I don’t find myself oftentimes agreeing with Democratic Congressman from California, Ro Khanna, but I most certainly are agreeing with him today. He made some statements on the floor, basically pointing out the hypocrisy, the fact that the
Pentagon has been completely unable to pass an audit. Again, Elon Musk highlighted all of the nonsense that taken place at this point in time. Yet at the same time, again, we’re $36 trillion plus in debt. House Republicans are going to hike Pentagon spending by 150 billion.
This is a part of this big, beautiful bill. Another $150 billion, putting it over a trillion dollars a year.

Again, you have your hopes and you kind of get excited, I guess, when a new administration comes in and they make certain promises and you hope to see certain things cut down in size. I know it’s easy to get people all riled up. We have the greatest and biggest military, tucking this up, all this stuff. Please stop. Find the money in the budget. Go find the money there. All of this.
stuff that Elon Musk has been doing, all this highlighting, all of this waste and fraud and doge savings. Well, you just spent the money.
You just spent it all by increasing the Pentagon’s budget again. Will you ever get it under control? Again, I remind people I know I’ve talked about this before in the program, how much we spend on our military in comparison to other countries around the globe. It’s not even close. Not even close. And again,
I wouldn’t mind as much if you could actually keep your book straight, but you can’t. And again, this is what you promised to do, Mr. President. You and Pete Hegseth, jump up, down, we’re cleaning up. We’re gonna get independent. We’re gonna find all this waste floor. We’re gonna take care of this stuff. You haven’t found a damn thing. Musk highlighted a couple things you haven’t done anything on yet. You have the gall, the nerve to…
come to the American people and ask for an additional $150 billion. Watchdog on wallstreet.com.
