The Pentagon has failed its yearly audit once again.
The Department of Defenses Chief Financial Officer has announced the Pentagon has failed its annual audit for the sixth time in a row.
Comptroller Mike McCord reported only seven out of the 29 individual sub-audits of the department passed this year.
The Hill reported close to 3.8 trillion dollars worth of assets are unaccounted for.
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin I repose to the failed audit added a successful audit is still years away and added it “feels we need to be doing better at this and moving faster.”
The recent failure of the Pentagon’s 6TH audit couldn’t make it clearer that we need accountability & transparency. It’s time to independently #AuditthePentagon. No institution is above scrutiny, especially the DoD w/ the largest budget of ANY fed agency. https://t.co/ATqPB3ZYlS
