The Pentagon has failed its sixth consecutive audit, despite its budget nearing $1 trillion, the largest of any federal government agency. The Department of Defense has no timeline for passing an audit and has distanced itself from a previous deadline of 2027. The latest failure shows no evidence of progress, with the same number of unmodified opinions as last year and an increase in disclaimers. The Pentagon claims "progress sort of beneath the surface" but has not provided any concrete evidence. Critics argue that as long as there are no consequences for failure, the Pentagon will continue to fail audits year after year.
