great expenditure of tax payer dollars.

When there is no accountability to how they waste our money, then they can do BS like this. I now need to find out how much they spent building this ship.

At only $5 billion I guess we taxpayers should feel like we got a break considering the $85+ billion loss that Biden Inc. cost us in Afghanistan.

This is nothing new. It’s always been like this, whether Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marines.

In WWII, the torpedoes wouldn’t explode. We lost a lot of sailors due to that.

Watch the movie Oppenheimer. The guy Robert Downey Jr plays, Lew Strauss, was instrumental in getting the Navy to accept and fix this issue.
