The Pentagon has failed its seventh consecutive audit, unable to fully account for its $824 billion budget. “Where is our money, Lebowski”, but on completely different level. Also The Pentagon has never passed an audit since becoming legally obligated to do so in 2018.

The Pentagon has failed its seventh consecutive audit, unable to fully account for its $824 billion budget. "Where is our money, Lebowski", but on completely different level. Also The Pentagon has never passed an audit since becoming legally obligated to do so in 2018.

However, Pentagon as a huge organization that handles a massive amount of money for America’s defense. Every year, they need to show exactly how they spend this money, kind of like balancing a giant checkbook.

But for the seventh year in a row, they couldn’t fully explain all their spending, which means they failed their audit. But, it is not that bad as it seems:they’re getting better at tracking their money – nine of their departments passed their individual checks perfectly. The people in charge say they’re making good progress and expect to have everything properly tracked by 2028.

So, 4 more years of “we don’t know where’s the money”.
