US President orders comprehensive review of Pentagon spending

US President Donald Trump has ordered a comprehensive review of the Pentagon's spending, which is estimated at around $850 billion for the current fiscal year. The review will be led by Elon Musk, who heads the Department of Government Efficiency.In remarks to journalists on Saturday, President Trump emphasized that Musk and his team will scrutinize expenditures across various government sectors, including defense. The president hinted that the audit might uncover ‘some pretty bad things.’The decision is part of the new US administration's broader effort to control government spending and reduce costs. The move comes amid heightened debates in Congress over financial priorities, particularly in light of ongoing international tensions that demand additional military funding.
