The Defense Departmentβs Inspector General, in a June report, said the Army made $2.8 trillion in wrongful adjustments to accounting entries in one quarter alone in 2015, and $6.5 trillion for the year. Yet the Army lacked receipts and invoices to support those numbers or simply made them up.Expect the accounting department to explode or have all records magically lost in short order.
This is surely the weirdest governmental communication ever. I'm fascinated by the idea that someone had to tell the NSC and White House, "NSA wants to rickroll the Russian government using DoJ-owned bitcoins seized from a dark web drugs-and-assassinations forum." Evidently our branch of the multiverse is a pasteup being collaboratively written by Grant Morrison, Charlie Stross and Neal Stephenson.In any event, the WaPo thinks the NSA hack is legit.
