Reply to comment by A40 in NASA outlines case for making sole-source SLS award to Boeing-Northrop joint venture by jeffsmith202
NASA doesn't make any decisions regarding the Senate Launch System.
It's all dictated by Congress, who have the power to direct how money is spent, and use that power extensively.

Yes.
But put the blame where it's deserved, which is on Congress and not on NASA.

Yeah, NASA is just a poor innocent bystander in all this. That’s why the GAO caught them hiding billions of SLS dev costs in other unrelated programs.
Why they are just as pure as the driven snow.
