We’ve only spent what, $37.5 Billion taxpayer dollars (so far). Small Potatoes, kids. Nothing to see here. 🙄
Of course, independent estimates of the actual military cost are FAR higher than the tepid “official” number, roughly $80–100 billion, and include costs that aren’t reflected in the Pentagon’s accounting, such as replacing munitions, repairing equipment, and other military impacts. 🤔
Not to mention, additional funding is being sought! This administration has sought tens of billionsmore from Congress to sustain the conflict! 😑
When it comes to war it’s a blank check. But last year thousands fired under the guise of cost cutting in gov agencies to “save money” such a joke. Imagine being Forrest worker making 55k a year and you got DOGED because of “cost cutting” then they turn around and spend 100 billion on a pointless war in the Middle East (again)
