Bernie Sanders Supports Elon Musk's Push for Pentagon Audit After 7th Failure
Dec 1, 2024, 06:07 PM
U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders has publicly supported Elon Musk's call for an investigation into the Pentagon's financial management following its seventh consecutive failed audit. Sanders highlighted the Pentagon's inability to account for billions in its $886 billion budget, describing it as a 'total disaster' and emphasizing the need for accountability.
