Military numbers seem grossly undervalued
Right I thought the average size of a defense budget was just under a trillion lol
$83 billion per month is almost $1 trillion per year. That sounds about right.
Oh dang, missed the part of this monthly.
Yup. FML
We don't know their dark money shush fund income or expenditure, and guess who's never passed an audit?
I would be shocked if they were earning a significant amount compared to federal funding. This is monthly, if you missed that like OP.
