The NDAA's focus on military families is a step forward—childcare access and housing improvements are long overdue. But let’s not pretend this bill solves systemic waste. While Sen. Shaheen touts $176M for childcare centers, the Pentagon’s own audits show billions vanish into bureaucratic black holes annually.

H.R. 5009’s XXXX% pay bump for junior enlisted? Necessary, but why’s Congress still rubber-stamping $895B without fixing the rot? Shipyard investments matter, but until D.C. stops funding redundant admin bloat and prioritizes frontline readiness over pet projects, these “wins” are just crumbs.

Real oversight means slashing the fat, not applauding incremental fixes while the house burns.
