Mark HertlingUnlike previous Defense Secretaries, @SecDef was a soldier & uniformed strategic leader who experienced - many times! - continuing budget resolutions. He knows the negative effects CRs have on the force & each individual serving. Stop this nonsense, Congress, and deliver a signed budget. http://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2022/11/28/secdef-tells-congress-to-get-a-military-budget-done-already/
Shadow Heart@markhertling how many Congressional audits have the Pentagon failed again? The military has been given a blank check too many times, there are domestic programs in severe need of funding. Stop funding murder.
Ted Roberts@Sh4d0w_H34rt @markhertling while ALL government agencshoukd be regularly audited to ensure fiscal responsibility characterizing the DoD as murderers is out of line.
@tedroberts @markhertling really how many years of this nations history have we not spent in armed conflict? We are seen as a warmongering nation and our military as murders. Half our national budget is spent on war rather than the peoples needs.
@Sh4d0w_H34rt @markhertling defense spending is approx 677b in FY ‘22. Overall that is 12% of Federal spending.
