The Pentagon can’t explain why it has failed an audit five times in a row, nor what happened to billions upon billions of U.S. taxpayers’ dollars, and you ask them about potential corruption, their main defense is to insult your intelligence.
Even the beloved leftist Jon Stewart received that treatment as he tread too closely to the topic during an interview with the Department of Defense’s number two in command.
Stewart recently sat down with Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks for an interview on C-SPAN. During that conversation, Stewart brought up the Pentagon’s inability to keep its books straight, but Hicks denied that its failure was in any way sign of corruption or irresponsibility.
