"If someone had a report card that is half good and half not good, I don't know that you call the student or the report card a failure. We have a lot of work to do…I think we're making progress."Pentagon Fails 7th Audit in a Row but Hopes To Pass by 2028
Congress required all federal agencies to submit annual financial reports in 1990.
Fifteen others earned "disclaimers," meaning auditors "could not obtain sufficient, appropriate evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion." Among those receiving disclaimers were such big-ticket items as the National Security Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
"The DoD reporting entities that received disclaimers of opinion on their financial statements, when combined, account for at least 44 percent of the DoD's total assets and at least 68 percent of the DoD's total budgetary resources," the report noted.
Opinions on three components are still pending. But even if all three pass with flying colors, more than half of the DOD's elements will have failed to pass inspection.
Still, the department tried to spin the results as a positive. "The Department has turned a corner in its understanding of the depth and breadth of its challenges," McCord noted on Friday. "Momentum is on our side, and throughout the Department there is strong commitment—and belief in our ability—to achieve an unmodified audit opinion."
McCord told reporters that it was "very unfair" to say the department failed. "We have about half clean opinions. We have half that are not clean opinions," he explained. "If someone had a report card that is half good and half not good, I don't know that you call the student or the report card a failure. We have a lot of work to do…I think we're making progress."

Looks like “Common Core” + NCLB (thanks Bush) + DEI educational standards…having a 50%+ fail rate is acceptable now.
Every reality of humanity is a perfected vacuum of understanding evolving in plain sight regardless race, creed, color, national origin, gendered addition to the species each generation gap lived into current population left alive today.Deezer Shoove » 15 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ Someone posted just before the election that KaKa had a 50% approval rating.

It's all ****, after all.
The glass is never half empty since there's no such thing as a perfect vacuum.
IOW always deflect with an out of context analogy. ;)
With all due respect, I think people should be a bit more worked up over this than Kaka getting a 50% approval rating…DeezerShoove » 30 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ Someone posted just before the election that KaKa had a 50% approval rating.

Why hasn't your brain navigated between what defines heroism vs martyrdom every generation gap forward daily? Why hasn't your brain deciphered the difference between defending ideas and protecting ancestors from pother people's ancestries embezzling their biological time to say character counts and genetic results are just green energy for people of character to arrive daily while everyone living pretends nobody knew how evolving happens in plain sight each is equally adapting to the time they have left since conceived so far?LowIQTrash » 30 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ With all due respect, I think people should be a bit more worked up over this than Kaka getting a 50% approval rating…
They are literally thieving in front of you and nobody cares. Sign of a major collapse incoming.
Let’s see if my “market timing” skills pay off :rofl:

You understand the difference between giving up and giving in to demands of mob rule leaderships creating rule of law situations where they are always in charge of people sacrificing biological time to keep relative time ideas going every generation gap arriving next today demanding humans have rights to ignore how evolving works daily.Deezer Shoove » 46 minutes ago » wrote: ↑ My funds are mostly steady, low risk stuff.
That doesn't mean NO risk, so I am still part of the crowd. :wah:
It seems like it's so pervasive and far reaching that little can be done.
The thieving and conniving is far above my pay scale.
I can "care" all day long but to what avail?
Even voting in a guy the deep state dislikes doesn't appear to be much more than useless to some of the constant naysayers here in NHB. So the naysayers are basically saying. "Give up."
