Polls, predictions & fact-checks we ran live across networks — your take joins the running tally, compared across every network.

The Pentagon has how many miles of corridors?

The Pentagon cost approximately $83 million to build when it was completed in 1943

Civilian Pentagon employees number ~700,000 — more than any U.S. company's workforce

The Pentagon's FY2025 budget is roughly $886 billion.

That's larger than the next 10 countries' defense budgets combined. With Hegseth's Army Secretary now resigned, instability at the top puts oversight of that massive spending under scrutiny.
