Pentagons Record Spending Spree: Luxury Items, Ice Cream Machines, and a Grand Piano
The Pentagon spent a record $93.4 billion in September 2025, including $6.9 million on lobster tails, $15.1 million on ribeye steaks, and $2 million on Alaskan king crab. Other purchases included $124,000 on ice cream machines, $139,000 on doughnuts, a $98,000 grand piano, and $225 million on furniture. Lawmakers and critics from both parties have criticized the luxury buys, especially with a war against Iran ongoing. Congress plans hearings to tighten oversight and rethink end-of-year spending rules.
