For years, the Congressionally-appointed Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) has monitored the spending of US taxpayer billions on Afghanistan. IG John Sopko has unearthed billions upon billions in waste, fraud, and abuse.
Now, billions of US tax dollars are pouring out of our country in real time to Ukraine. Prior to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine was widely referred to in the media and by US government officials as “one of the most corrupt governments” we know of.
All that money–and no special entity is monitoring how it’s being spent. Nobody is assigned to examine expenses for waste, fraud, and abuse. Why not?
Do you think an Inspector General should be created to conduct this type of oversight?
Do you think we should send billions more to Afghanistan?

How much “foreign aid” is really money-laundering using our tax dollars to buy Democrat votes, from voters like the US defense industry union members.
This should not be hard to track – How much “foreign aid” is kept in the US to favored industries, or daisy-chained right back into guaranteed Democrat-voting industries.
Bi-partisan abuses: RINO neo-cons just as guilty.

Can we really expect accountability from the current administration? Or rather any administration?
Given the fact that the Pentagon failed its sixth audit and has no time line to complete it, how can we ever expect to get an accurate account of where our tax dollars are going to in Ukraine- one of the most corrupt countries in Europe.

“The Hill reported that Cawthorn frustrated his GOP colleagues after he appeared on the ‘Warrior Poet Society’ podcast and said that scenes from the Netflix television drama ‘House of Cards’ was not far from reality.
“All of the sudden you get invited to, ‘Well, hey, we’re going to have kind of a sexual get-together at one of our homes. You should come.’ … You realize they are asking you to come to an orgy,’Cawthorn said. He said that he has seen those who advocate against addiction doing “key bumps of cocaine.’
“House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) later said Cawthorn did not have evidence to back up his statements on the parties. McCarthy said the explanation for the cocaine allegation was that ‘he thinks he saw maybe a staffer in the parking garage from 100 yards away.’
“‘This is unacceptable. There’s no evidence to this,’McCarthy said. ‘That’s not becoming of a congressman. He did not tell the truth.’”

That this question has to be asked is an indictment of Congress and the White House. What political downside is there to a resolution from both sides of the aisle to require a special inspector general to protect our money when it’s flowing out in massive amounts. Yet every day we are informed of essentially clandestine insertions into our laws by the administration which support its political objectives. And to think that “Government“ is surprised when we don’t trust the information it feeds us on our health ie: vaccines. United States democracy exists essentially as a knife fight between opposing sides with, essentially, self interests, Independent journalism like this is the only thing giving its success a chance. We need to keep paying attention and raising our voices.
Coleman Organ,
Study the inception and goals of
the Bavarian Illuminati (( 1776 )) and
Banking House of Rothschild’s

Study my report :

is an in-depth analyses of the late
Col. Robert’s detailed explanation
of the Shadow Government’s plan,
for engaging America in FOREVER
Wars and One World Government.

The “Cash Cow” status for over spending in Afghanistan was simply transferred to Ukraine. The USA war machine leadership has the moral equivalency of a bank robber who keeps shooting bank tellers to maintain an unlimited cash flow. The suicidal soldiers continue to ask why, as they continue killing themselves. The entire war strategy is based entirely on how much money flows to and fro. The American taxpayers are once again being duped into paying for something they never authorized. The earth has grown into a house of cards and the game is nearly done.

As JungianINTP notes, all of the money laundering ops is an indication of something far more insidious than a few corrupted politicians, or ineptitude re audits and accounting practices. We don’t need to see more historical evidence regarding the infiltration of the former American government in order to realize that today we have no sovereign government. We the People are not represented-period! A criminal cabal has been taking treasury dollars from the US taxpayers for over a hundred years, and this has translated as “War is a Racket”–in the words of Maj.Gen Smedley Butler. Former US Military truth tellers such as Jeffrey Prather or Col. Macgregor will tell us all that certain generals in the military are merely politicians. They serve Raytheon or Northrop, not the US constitution or the US Republic. Just as the FDA and CDC serve the Pharmonopoly. Stew Peters and Alex Jones recently debated the details re who is actually running this nation’s fake govt in the principality we know as DC–and the usual suspects came up. JFK spoke of secret societies, just as Lincoln was aware of nefarious organizations that have been enemies of the US Republic for over a century. It’s time to state the obvious: the people in this country who revere and honor the US Constitution must come to terms with a harsh reality: We have no government.

If we don’t have the courage to stop paying our taxes that support this bi-partisan fiscal abuse; why should anyone stop it who has political advantage to gain by spending those same tax dollars?
Repeal 16th Amendment – start petitions in your state.

As noted. the IG for Afghanistan has unearthed billions upon billions in waste, fraud, and abuse; BUT how much of that fraud waste and abuse has been recovered, or those responsible been punished for it?
NOT ONE DARN Penny nor has anyone gone to prison!
So what makes one think an IG looking into all the fraud waste and abuse in Ukraine, which we already know has been several billions of taxpayer funds, will provide any fix?
Let me know when the Biden crime cabal, Merrick Garland, Alejandro Myorkas and others are brought to justice.

In time of war, soldiers can be shot and killed for insubordination, as I understand the law. If an Inspector General commits Malfeasance and/or Treason, does the death penalty apply? The courts are quite willing to convict police officers and soldiers even when evidence proves their innocence. Perhaps the Inspector Generals should be held accountable for their lies and incompetence. If they were, you would witness a return to honesty by many inside this corrupted mess we call the USA.
