We found the waste Elon Musk and DOGE won’t cut: it’s defense contractors. The Department of Defense funnels $450 billion of taxpayer dollars a year to private military contractors.

Will the Trump administration take action on the real government waste?

More Perfect Union’s mission is to build power for working people. Here’s what that means: We report on the real struggles and challenges of the working class from a working-class perspective, and we attempt to connect those problems to potential solutions. We report on the abuses and wrongdoing of corporate power, and we seek to hold accountable the ultra-rich who have too much power over America’s political and economic systems.
