Goodlander Grills Hegseth With His Own Words — $25B War Cost Exposed

Описание: Goodlander Grills Hegseth With His Own Words — $25B War Cost Exposed
Rep. Maggie Goodlander confronted War Secretary Pete Hegseth during a House Armed Services Committee hearing over a massive $1.5 trillion budget request, $25 billion already spent on the Iran war, and the Department’s failure to provide a basic cost breakdown under questioning.

Goodlander pressed Hegseth on taxpayer accountability, eight failed audits, GAO high-risk concerns, Inspector General findings, rising gas prices, and the bedrock principle that the military follows lawful orders only. But the sharpest moment came when Hegseth accused her of making a partisan point — and Goodlander answered: “I’m actually quoting you directly, Mr. Hegseth.”

This hearing breakdown examines how Goodlander used receipts, numbers, and Hegseth’s own words to expose a deeper accountability crisis inside a trillion-dollar war budget.
