🚨NEW🚨 The F-35 Fiasco: Lockheed Martin’s Woke Agenda & The Betrayal of American Taxpayers It’s time to shine a spotlight on a scandal that’s been quietly draining our nation’s resources while compromising our military readiness. Every single day, @LockHeedMartin, a company increasingly obsessed with pushing a woke agenda, is delivering F-35 fighter jets that are simply not ready for combat. This isn’t just a minor hiccup—it’s a multi-billion-dollar betrayal of the American taxpayer & our national security. This should be getting way more attention & scrutiny than it currently is. The F-35 program, one of the most expensive weapons programs in history, is plagued by delays, defects, & downright incompetence. The U.S. Air Force is being forced to accept jets that lack functional radar systems—yes, you read that right, NO RADAR! According to reports from @insidedefense, and Air & Space Forces Magazine, the F-35 program has shown “no improvement” in software development & testing, with critical systems still lagging behind schedule. The Pentagon’s own assessments confirm that these jets are not combat-ready, yet they’re being rolled out as if everything is fine. How can we trust a company that delivers half-baked fighter jets to our brave men & women in uniform? Source: Inside Defense insidedefense.com/daily-news… Source: Air & Space Forces Magazine airandspaceforces.com/new-pe… If you thought jets with no radar was bad, here’s the kicker: about 1 month before President @realDonaldTrump took office for his 2nd term, & right before the busy Christmas & holiday season, Lockheed Martin somehow managed to secure a massive $11.8 billion contract under the Biden administration. This deal, rushed through under the Biden Admin, reeks of cronyism & deception. Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall, a key figure in the outgoing admin, appears to have done a favor for his buddy, Lockheed Martin CEO Jim Taiclet. Instead of holding Lockheed Martin accountable for their failures, the Biden admin rewarded them with billions of dollars more of your hard-earned tax dollars. Is this what “leadership” looks like? BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE! It actually gets worse. You’re probably asking yourself, why are these jets failing so spectacularly? Could it be that Lockheed has been too busy prioritizing Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) initiatives& hiring anti-Trump lobbyists instead of focusing on building reliable aircraft? According to a scathing report from Breitbart, Shelly O’Neill Stoneman, Lockheed’s Senior VP of Government Affairs has been described as a “Trump-hating woke warrior.” When a company is more concerned with political posturing than engineering excellence, is it any surprise their jets are rusting at sea? Yes, *RUSTING*. The War Zone reported that the F-35C’s radar-absorbent skin is deteriorating after just months at sea, rendering these multi-million-dollar jets even less effective. Source: Breitbart breitbart.com/politics/2025/… Source: The War Zone twz.com/44067/the-f-35cs-rad… Let’s talk about the cost. The F-35 program has ballooned to a staggering **$2 TRILLION** over its lifetime. That’s not a typo—trillion with a T! This is government and taxpayer WASTE on an unimaginable scale, & it’s coming out of our pockets! Meanwhile, Lockheed Martin’s CEO, Jim Taiclet is living large, reportedly racking up $928,000 in corporate jet expenses last year alone. If he wants to live like a king, maybe he should stop fleecing taxpayers & start delivering jets that actually work. Are we, the American people, footing the bill for his lavish lifestyle while our military gets stuck with defective equipment? Source: Lockheed Martin 2025 Proxy Statement lockheedmartin.com/content/d… This is a wake-up call. Why are we continuing to pour tens of billions of $ into a program that delivers rust buckets instead of reliable fighter jets? Our adversaries aren’t waiting for Lockheed to get their act together, & neither should we. @elonmusk @PeteHegseth RECEIPTS 👇🏻
