American politicians don't understand shit, because the people holding their leashes don't want people who understand shit in office.
It's not that they don't understand. They're lying. They know how government procurement works. They know that all they have to do is ask the DoD who can tell them how every dollar is spent. They don't because it doesn't fit their narrative. They're lying.
I don't know, man, I feel like we're at the 'lunatics running the asylum' stage. A good number are lying, sure. But a good number are genuinely stupid. Or genuinely uninterested in learning, like Reagan eating his steak while the Australian Prime Minister works out a deal with his aides.
Even if they are profoundly stupid, and many are, their staff isn’t. They know how these things work, as they do it every day.
ask the DoD who can tell them how every dollar is spent
Lol the DoD hasn't passed an audit in 30 years, and the reason it's only 30 years is that we didn't require them before then. Specifically, they didn't even try until 2017 and have failed every audit.
Lol. Betcha they can tell you every missile they bought or transfered to Ukraine. It's a separate account.
Sure that's accounted for as an act of congress
These fucking Congresspeople know because they argued over the bill lol
The entire time they've just been lying out of their asses. It's crazy people think we just have Ukraine literal money. "Hey go buy some bombs but not from us" - like it's insane to even imagine as a concept
