Pentagon Finds the Missing Money

Text on the meme

Pentagon: misplaces 2.3 trillion dollars Pentagon the next day:

What it means

A man energetically moves through a brightly lit arcade while a machine’s score rapidly climbs, ending with him celebrating in the crowd. The joke imagines the Pentagon spending its supposedly misplaced 2.3 trillion dollars at an arcade the very next day, with Eye of the Tiger making the search and celebration feel absurdly triumphant. It works as a reaction to government waste, unexplained spending, or someone immediately blowing money after losing track of it.
