On June 20, the Pentagon announced it had “overestimated’ the value of weapons sent to Ukraine by $6.2 billion over the last two years. Sabrina Singh, a spokeswoman, said the accounting issue resulted in an error of $2.6 billion in 2022 and $3.6 billion in 2023. But, as a result, the DOD now has “additional money in its coffers to use to support Ukraine,” according to ABC. This is on top of the estimated 75+ billion already handed over, which is more than the budget of NASA and nearly the budget of the entire state of Virginia. It is also more than the combined aid given to the next 6 or so countries on the list, from Afghanistan and Iraq to Israel. In January of this year, the Government Accountability Office announced that the Pentagon cannot account for $220 billion worth of government owned gear - ammunition, missiles, torpedos - provided to military contractors, and that the estimate is “likely significantly understated.” On September 10, 2001, Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld announced the Pentagon “cannot track $2.3 trillion dollars in transactions.” These facts alone calls into question the legitimacy of everything from taxes to the real nature of the ‘freedom’ or ‘democracy’. As we approach the next presidential election social media companies are also actively censoring Democrat now, and not just stories about Democrats like some curious narrative about a laptop the FBI told Facebook to axe. Youtube just removed a video between Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Jordan Peterson for ‘violating’ their policies while the justice system is moving quicker than it ever has scheduling four court trials in the next six months for the former president. leading up to the 2024 campaign.
