    The actual article: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/weapons-contractors-price-gouging-pentagon-60-minutes-transcript-2023-05-21/

    No mention of Russia or $800 billion.

    It’s not even how you spell the guy’s name.

    Get better at propaganda.

      Literally the first thing he says in the 60 minutes interview is that US is lagging behind Russia in producing munitions, meanwhile here’s the DoD budget which is 842 billion.

      On March 9, 2023, the Biden-Harris Administration submitted to Congress a proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Budget request of $842 billion for the Department of Defense (DoD), an increase of $26 billion over FY 2023 levels and $100 billion more than FY 2022.

      Get better at trolling.
