Senator Boxer Introduces Bill to Eliminate Electoral College
"This is the only office in the land where you can get more votes and still lose the presidency," Boxer said in a statement. "The Electoral College is an outdated, undemocratic system that does not reflect our modern society, and it needs to change immediately. Every American should be guaranteed that their vote counts."
[...] "When all the ballots are counted, Hillary Clinton will have won the popular vote by a margin that could exceed two million votes, and she is on track to have received more votes than any other presidential candidate in history except Barack Obama," Boxer said.
Trump will be the fifth president in U.S. history to win the election despite losing the popular vote. George W. Bush won the most recent such election, in 2000.

I'm probably "on your side" here (taxation is theft and/or slavery), but it is impossible for "the Pentagon" to have misplaced "6 trillion dollars last year". The entire US federal budget is around 4 trillion per year [insidegov.com], and the entire DoD "only" gets around 0.7-0.8 trillion dollars a year.
Accounting gimmicks to balance the books should not be used to "prove" that the fabric of reality has been warped.
