Elon Musk is right. The Pentagon, with a budget of $886 billion, just failed its 7th audit in a row. It's lost track of billions. Last year, only 13 senators voted against the Military Industrial Complex and a defense budget full of waste and fraud. That must change." - Bernie Sanders, in a December 1 post on X, highlighting the need for budget reform.
Sanders has long advocated for federal budget reform focusing on tighter spending in defense while suggesting funds should be redirected to pressing issues like climate change and education. More military spending is unnecessary, he argues.
Elon Musk supports reviewing the defense budget but has aligned himself with more traditional conservative approaches, as he will co-lead the DOGE along with Vivek Ramaswamy to dismantle government bureaucracy and cut wasteful expenditures.
