But don't bat an eye at the findings of DOGE, benefits for illegal immigrants, slush fund for Congregational sexual misconducts and so forth

Leave those guys alone and feed them fillet is what I say. They are doing the country a service by giving up time with family and putting their lives on hold to go to whatever shithole the government can find to send them. At least we as taxpayers can do is make sure these folks eat better than we do.

I had lobster when I was in the Army 20 years ago. Also ate A rats for weeks. The same meal over and over. Not new.

If Trump hosted a dinner for every member of Congress then they would expect to eat steak and lobster. They do a whole lot less and risk very little compared to our troops.

Warm water lobster is cheap outside of the USA. All the men in Maine have fled.

a piano for a base in Iraq.
Where did you get this from? The report says a "$98,329 Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff’s home." Does he live in Iraq now or are you making shite up?

The scandal here is this administration is doing nothing to control government spending and DOGE is a fraud. DOD could have just not spent this money, reduced its budget to what it needs and saved the tax payer money. A self doge if you will.

Instead, DOGE end real civilian jobs and other DOD programs only for that money to be spent in a last month spending cannon.

DOGE just fired people and the money was reallocate to lobster and steak.

They’ve been doing this forever.

My dad had outback catered to soldiers in Afghanistan once. Maybe it was Iraq. One of the two.

Those dudes deserve the lobster
