U.S. President’s Advisor: Pentagon Budget Could Be Cut by $800 Billion Due to Inefficiency
U.S. National Security Advisor Mike Waltz stated that the Pentagon is highly inefficient, and its budget could be reduced by $800 billion without compromising national defense.
Examples of Wasteful Spending

- Raises concerns about accountability in defense spending and the need for Pentagon reforms.
