This will be very interesting as well as dangerous since we are dealing with the corrupt military industrial complex. You know there will be trillions of missing dollars.
Have only seen the article on OANN so far. I wonder if opposition media will touch this story or be more interested in what Trump eats for Christmas dinner.

This isn't new. Many sub agencies in the DoD have been under audit since 2014 with direction to provide clean financial statements by 2017. When that was to be complete, then the overall DoD audit falls in line with that, which would be 2018. For anyone that works in DoD, this isn't new, it's known and the preparations have been going on for years.

It will be done by outside independent auditors.
As for how the audit would work, Jim Garamone of the official DoD News agency reports that the department's Office of the Inspector General has "hired independent public accounting firms to conduct audits of individual components — the Army, Navy, Air Force, agencies, activities and more — as well as a departmentwide consolidated audit to summarize all results and conclusions."
I hope it does good but I think it is more deflection by the dear leader.
Oh please.....
Trump can barley shake it off when he's done peeing without the Leftwing MSM calling it deflection/collusion/obstruction.
