Please Investigate the Financial Mismanagement behind the Iran War

To: Rep. Thanedar, Sen. Slotkin, Sen. Peters

From: A constituent in Grosse Pointe Woods, MI

August 31

One example of the Trump administration's Ponzi scheme that I contacted you about today is this report (https://www.military.com/iran-war-causing-shortfalls-in-navy-payroll-six-months-into-conflict) of the US Navy transferring money from payroll (and other) accounts because of the expenses of the ongoing, and completely pointless, Iran war. The appropriate course of action for Congress includes investigation, termination, and impeachment. Congress (e.g. the Armed Forces committees) should hold hearings to investigate the financial shenanigans propping up Trump's military misadventure. Further, Congress should use its legal authority to terminate this war and the power of the purse string to prevent any supplemental appropriations for it. The definitive way to stop the waste of money, military readiness, and lives is to impeach and remove SecDef Hegseth and President Trump. Their conduct of the Iran war as well as extrajudicial killings of supposed smugglers on the high seas are among the crimes that call for their removal from office. Thank you.
