“The Pentagon has given too much power to the defense contractors that are bilking American taxpayers,” commented Gaetz on X, adding, “It’s not going to get better unless we demand accountability.”

The F-35s should be the mascot of the deep state. It’s a worthless pile of shit used by the degenerate establishment to rob the people just like the Ukraine war. https://t.co/qLeQlMZkRB
