MAGA devotees scrambled to defend Pete Hegseth after a government watchdog found that the Pentagon spent millions on steak and lobster last year.
An analysis by Open the Books found that the Defense Department spent more than $93 billion on various grants and contracts in September 2025 alone, the highest monthly total since at least 2008, as part of a frantic end-of-year spending spree to maintain its funding for the following year.
Last September, the Pentagon spent $15 million on ribeye steak, $7 million on lobster tails, $2 million on Alaskan king crabs, and $1 million on salmon.
