UNINFORMED "R" VOTERS, tRUMP SUPPORTERS REGURGITATE FOX NEWS = FAKE NEWS PROPAGANDA THAT WE SHOULD TAKE CARE OF AMERICANS....
HOW MANY AMERICANS COULD WE CARE FOR WITH THE LOCKHEED MARTIN F-35 FOLLIES?
THIS IS IRRATIONAL!
The last time we alerted you about the F-35, its price tag was $1.7 trillion. Now, the cost of this failed fighter jet program is projected at over TWO TRILLION.
Here’s the deal — if you’re paying that much money, don’t you want to at least make sure that it can get in the air? Soar through the clouds and see the bright blue sky? Because right now, it consistently can’t.
To date, just 30% of F-35s perform as intended. Failure after failure has plagued the program: flawed ejection seats, delays in production, frequent groundings — not to mention that time the plane shot itself.
The kicker? Despite all of these flashing red light warnings, the Pentagon just signed off on a full-rate production of the F-35 — but not before it also moved to classify its own report on the plane’s combat effectiveness.
The Pentagon cannot be allowed to sweep the F-35's massive problems under the rug any longer. Congress must open an immediate investigation into how the Pentagon was able to sign off on full-rate production of an aircraft this deeply flawed.
Add your name to demand that the House and Senate Oversight Committees investigate the F-35 now!
| ACT NOW |
The only thing the F-35 can reliably do is be a poster child for Pentagon corruption, waste, and mismanagement. Last year, during the debate on the National Defense Authorization Act, key committees across the House and Senate voted to pour BILLIONS more into the F-35 program — buying planes and parts well above what the Pentagon even asked for.
That includes Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL), the top Republican on the House Armed Services Committee, who pushed for hundreds of MILLIONS more for a new F-35 engine that even the Air Force didn’t want. That’s the same Rep. Rogers who has personally raked in millions of dollars in campaign donations from weapons contractors and their lobbyists over the years, and over $694,633 in the 2023 - 2024 election cycle alone. That included thousands from — you guessed it — Lockheed Martin, the maker of the F-35.
The bottom line? This calls for an aggressive congressional investigation into the Pentagon's unfathomable decision to greenlight the F-35 failures. The unredacted reports and data must be made public so there can be a full accounting of any mismanagement.
People deserve to know the ugly truth of how our tax dollars are being squandered — and House and Senate Oversight can help get us the answers we deserve. If you agree, please add your name now:
