But the most important question for you Suckers and Losers: are the price of your eggs lower than they were with Dark Brandon?
(p.s. I come from a military family, I lost my brother over in Iraq, so I don't really think our veterans are Suckers and Losers. Our "president" does, though.)
They will try and break the VA and its reputation amongst veterans, as further 'proof' to continue to mess with my healthcare, that was a contract between the American people and those that served.
I receive exceptional care through the VA. I support those who serve us with kindness and care.
And they'll revise the history, embellishing the flaws and dismissing the good. Even veterans who have received care and treatment for years will convince themselves that the revisionist version is true and that it was unsustainable and failing before Trump "did what was necessary" in abolishing it.
Not this one! G W Bush created a whole new generation of vets by invading Iraq and his party in congress constantly underfunded and didn't predict the massive swelling of the ranks, just as Vietnam vets were aging into more expensive and complex care needs.
OIF II... spicy times! Maybe we crossed paths at the Lalafallujah Festival, Devil Doc. Or at the Baghdad Boat and Camel Show, where the new 3-hump models were on display.
When I lived in a less populated area, my VA care was exceptional. Now that I'm in a major city again, they're severely understaffed and outsourcing patient care. They outsourced mine, and because the provider didn't handle billing properly, I'm in limbo. Not the VA's fault. They need more support.
The billing process is convoluted. They need to contact the VA to receive a consult authorization form and submit it each year, for each VA patient, or their bill will be declined. They then try to bill the veteran directly. Civilian billing departments don't understand the proper procedure.
Yep and it’s not just VA. I had applied for quite a few jobs through USAJOBS for various agencies, and I got a slew of emails over the last couple of days stating that the postings were canceled.
Yo, could we please stop with the calling people "stupid" or leopard face stuff. It's hurtful, dismisses the issue, and dehumanizes each other. Open arms policy people; if someone feels betrayed by their choice we shouldn't shame them. Bring them into the fold, make them feel heard/seen.
Sorry, it’s a little to late. We tried to inform them, they chose to stay in ignorance. They had the information and he told them what he was going to do. It was more important to make sure the black lady did not get in. We live with the consequences and my arms are closed.
Frustration is valid, but many voted based on identity, not policy. Shaming closes doors; empathy opens them. How can we foster dialogue that balances accountability with understanding?
This is beyond frustration. My good deeds and open arms are going around the community of our vulnerable, disabled both physically and intellectually, our minorities, our children living in poverty. Again, they did not have a choice. They should be shamed.
N-O.
They LAUGHED at US when we tried to tell them, warn them, reach out to them, plead with this country to THINK about the effect this creature would have with the vengeance politics they seemed to WANT.
Nothing to do now but mock and laugh. Or literally fucking go crazy.
Disappointment is valid, but how do we address this cycle constructively? Mocking reinforces division, but disengaging doesn’t solve it. What approach could challenge their narrative effectively?
The US is a pair of toxic parents with "the kids" trying to "save" the marriage of because they think it's their fault a divorce is coming. We SHOULD BE heading for a split, because there IS NO WAY BACK to peaceful cohabitation. The sides are on vastly different paths, and don't WANT "unity".
Maybe @peterbakernyt.bsky.social will start writing stories hammering Trump the way he hammered Biden every time he coughed. My God. This man is already ruining 1,000’s of people’s lives and has only been in office 4 days.
Wow. So, the VA will simply sputter and lag, as the numbers of those in need continue to grow. What does that say to our veterans? What does it say to those still in our active service? To me, it says "get out now because if/when you get injured and need the VA, we won't be there for you".
It's only temporary.
The felon president just wants to make sure that every new hire is loyal to him.
Next up; making sure health care RECIPIENTS are also loyal.
DOGE intends on closing the VA hospitals and putting all the vets into the private insurance market so that the we are stuck with United Healthcare. No longer paying for Veteran healthcare will save them billions for their tax cuts.
Wow! That makes as much sense as putting all of the elderly on Advantage plans which are essentially private health insurance plans. How many gets and elderly DON'T have preexisting conditions?
We have a 31 TRILLION $ deficit. Yet POTUS promises 50 Billion $ for space exploration. Guess he is going to make our Veterans fund it by denying them care. Sad day for Veterans good day for Elon Musk and his cronies
$31 T is the debt, not deficit.
The Fed gov’t CAN afford to fully fund vet care, Medicare for all, a job guarantee. It is the issuer of money not user.
Good book explaining MMT & how our monetary system works & how we have been lied to for years.
I went and looked at the reviews on this book. The common theme seems to be that the author doesn't answer important questions, and the theories presented "didn't age well".
A gov’t with sovereign fiat currency not pegged to another currency or commodity is not constrained w/funding.
The limit is the productive capacity of the economy; if demand exceeds it, causes inflation. Current inflation is price gouging.
Restricting spending & using monetary policy (vs fiscal) to fight inflation keeps people unemployed, labor pool cheap & available for corps.
Can find money for wars but not Medicare for all, fed funding education, a job guarantee.
Throughout history money is creation of the state. Taxes create a demand for currency, lower wealth gap, alter behavior (tax on cigarettes). Taxes are not used as revenue.
Congress passes bill > Fed funds treasury > treasury funds projects.
Fed deficit = surplus in economy
He’s funding the massive tax cut he’s giving the billionaires who apparently are kicking back some of that $$$ to Trump!
Veterans, immigrants, government employees are the first casualties of Dictator Trump. Everyone will get hit before he’s done. Vote Blue in every election! Vote!!!
And he also wants to get rid of the IRS. Or take us to some flat tax. These guys strut around like they own the shit. Our creditors could call our debt. Whenever they fucking want to.
Trump is embarrassed to be seen with disabled veterans. Capt Bone Spurs considers them to be losers. The only military he likes are when they’re saluting him as Commander in Chief. He doesn’t deserve the title #🍊💩
That’s pretty on brand. Lip service to veterans and fancy recruitment commercials, but screw them when they get home. Oh and if they get captured by an opposing force…
Easy to say now. My wife relies on the va for her prescriptions. And health care. Starting all over is stupid when this entire thing shouldn’t be a thing. Except dumpy is a Moran.
So we’ve got over 250,000 federal employees now on paid leave! This disrupts services to veterans! So much for supporting our troops! This will destroy a huge brain trust in the government and is going to run our deficit up! Some table genius of a business man this idiot is! Impeach Trump!
I’m watching a video of Bernie Sanders questioning Trumps adviser about health care for the people and asking does he agree it’s a human right to have healthcare and the adviser is dodging the issue so that’s a no then!
Says it all about priorities for Trump.
He hates them because he's the five-time draft Dodger and they had the balls to stand up for their country. It's sad that so many of them voted for this orange turd
I work for the VA. When I found out I sat at my desk and cried. Providers desperately needed for veterans Trump took it
away without a blink. Billionaires who wouldn't be afforded those opportunities without the sacrifice of our veterans do not care at all. It is a disgrace and disgusting.
Same! I’m at the VA also and have been depressed lately. Especially as a veteran myself. Most of these guys I serve spent less time in and don’t pay attention to what trumps agenda really is. The email about DEI really pissed me off as well. It was cold.
I agree 100%. The tone in the email was so disgusting. I don't know if I will be able to hang on before I can retire. They are making it impossible to take care of our vets. It is an honor to take care of them, but they won't give us resources to accomplish it. So incredibly sad.
Thank you for your service! The more we can all mobilize to support our Veteran-Heros, the better. Shine a spotlight on this and keep us all posted so we can rally!
Sending you support. I know of many VA patients and know several VA employees. I know and deeply appreciate all the hard work y'all do, each and every day.
Wait, you're telling me the president from the party that always votes against funding the VA is attacking the VA? But the party that's always hurting veterans is pro-veteran, aren't they? They keep telling me they are. They couldn't be lying!
And once someone sane is in power all their financial assistance etc should be restored. But they should forever be a social pariah unwelcome everywhere for doing this to all of us.
They think it’s going to benefit them. He told them they could go get care anywhere they wanted instead. They don’t realize wait times in the community are twice as long. And he’s doing away w health research and population monitoring systems so we won’t be able to say what the effects are.
Not my old vet and every doctor he has at the VA has been from another country. So a hiring freeze and then what, visas not being renewed or cancelled.
Trump is really looking for some trouble now. It’s just a matter of time. I think he’s starting to piss his own party off, and he’s not even a week in. So far I haven’t heard anything positive coming out of his mouth.
This is a huge problem. I know 2 docs in my area that got their offers rescinded. The VA system provides great care to our veterans and has definite manpower needs that cannot be ignored. Why is Trump going out of his way to hurt so many of his supporters??
He doesn't have another election coming. He literally does not care about his 'supporters'. He never has. He only cared about the votes. No more votes. No more reasons to worry about 'the little people'
The VA costs money. As far as DJT is concerned it's a 'waste of money'.
The VA doesn’t have enough Medical professionals as it is now a freeze on hiring?
A shout out to all you fools who support trump . Your Benefits are next!
And the MAGA's that had been offered a job are going nutz. One in particular has already moved, lot stock a barrel. Only to get the Leopard is eating my face letter.🤣🤣🤣.
Trump is an idiot!! And Doug Collins, his new Veterans Admin. czar to be, will be a lapdog to anything those advising Trump wants! I worked for the VA, for almost 35 years, on the benefits side. Trump has no clue about what the VA does! He didn't the last time he was president. President Biden did!
There was so much evidence that he doesn't care AT ALL about veterans. Now they will suffer because they refused to believe his words and actions. This is dark stuff...
Again! I say it the first of many steps to annihilate veterans benefits!!… So all you “MakeAmericaGreatAgain” veterans that voted for this M’F’ker!
We told you this was going to happen!
BTW: how are you liking your higher drug prices??
The Veterans Health Administration is America's largest integrated health care system, providing care at 1,380 health care facilities, including 170 medical centers and 1,193 outpatient sites of care of varying complexity (VHA outpatient clinics), serving 9.1 million enrolled Veterans each
Just saw another post from a man crying his wife lost her job offer from the VA because of this and then went on to say he voted for Trump. He didn't see that leopard coming.
Yeah,I saw that too. He wrote to the white house,because he said this was wrong this couldn't have been intended for them because they voted for Trump🤔
What gets me is the guy is a disabled vet. He probably gets disability from the SSA. What do you think will happen when Mango Mousalini finally goes after that, medicare, and medicade? Think he will state that the “SSA/Medicare/Medicade professionals probably were NOT the target of this EO”? FAFO
That's the thing why vote to hurt others? I don't vote to harm humans because we are all that and it could always catch me in the backlash. We on the left understand it's a people not a place that makes the nation.
I saw the same one. I feel sorry for those who didn’t vote for him because they knew. The Trumpers well they thought or didn’t think it would ever apply to them.
Yup. Which is why the best rebellion is a passive aggressive one. Let it happen say i told you so then calmly walk away and leave them alone to figure out how they will get by now. When they start a go fund me, decline to donate.
All of them on Medicaid and Medicare are going to feel it real soon now that there are no caps on drug prices. Jackass supports big pharma, not Americans.
Well he and his wife are stupid. Trump has consistently told everyone who he is. As a reminder he is; a liar, criminal, sexual predator, racist, and sociopath
I just saw another one from a new federal employee who had a LOT to say about how glad he was that he voted for Trump until someone pointed out that he is about to lose his job because he is still in the probationary period.
Sadly, I wouldn’t surprised if that person is able to keep their (now-probationary) job. I have a feeling that they are going to start requiring oaths to Trump, or similar, from Federal employees, and their political position might save their job.
I wish we could give you more hope but all I can say is hopefully these folks learn from their suffering and never let Republicans lie to them again. The cops are never gonna listen again when they say back the blue. That may be enough vote to make sure they never enter office again.
I saw that post. I love that he wrote he knows it was an unintended consequence that his wife now lost her job. No sir, it was very intended. Even when slapped in the face with reality they still have their heads up his bum
He didn't want others to get dei jobs but forgot he had a woman close to him who might be affected. Not to mention by his profile pic I'm assuming his wife is black. Woman are being blocked from Doge cause MTG wants to be the only one.
I honestly think that’s what they want is to collapse the entire system or blame it for its failures that were precipitated because short staffing can only do so much and then they will privatize it all or do community care for all services.
Happening now my my VA clinic. One retired after 18 yrs (tomorrow is his last day) and another who was per diam to cover as needed quit. The ones left are seeing 12+ patients a day, going home to eat dinner and chart all night. Get up and do it again. No replacements coming.
They are being told an entirely different story and they are too complacent and brain washed to fact check. They believe, at the behest of dear leader, that all media is "fake news". They think WE are the kool aid drinkers and they are the sane ones.
Trump hates our veterans. If you are a veteran who voted for Trump and would need the services of the VA, you better pray that you don’t get sick. If you are already sick then expect to get sicker because Trump doesn’t care about you.
The VA has been targeted because it's EXTREMELY expensive of them all. It's part of them dismantling these services for privatization. I didn't think Vets would go for this, but I guess they don't care about their healthcare or the really kushy services they receive to have a President Musk/Trump.
They're supposed to be public servants. I'd like to know why they get paid quadruple what their employers get paid. They work about 122 days out of the year and call us lazy and greedy. Let's pay them the average income in America and see how many of them actually stay.
Yeah I know how SCOTUS legalized bribery but that doesn't stop the asset forfeiture of gifts laundered from the profits of crime. Furthermore the real world knows who and what the Berlin Trumpf Candy clown is so expect sanctions against America's Russian backed "ruling elite" Dems too in 5, 4, 3, 2
That, yes, but not JUST that. Turning over any service that helps people into a profit-making "privatized" service has long been the goal of Republicans. This is another step toward crippling the VA, making service worse, thus proving "government-run services can't work" before selling it all off.
AND, even before this, were already dangerously short staffed.
Way to go fukkin trumpanzee. Hell bent on taking apart every office that actually helps the citizens and vets.
A lot of nurses voted for Trump too. Especially the Filipino ones. You get what you vote for. They die or lose their jobs and no one will give a shit cause that’s what they voted for.
Unfortunately a lot of them do because like many Hispanics, they have no clue and very little education of what it was like for Americans throughout history who fought for civil rights. They don’t see how it will affect them and don’t realize they have a right to work bcuz of civil rights movement.
I’ve sat through many union classes with them, and have found that the majority of them are also upper middle class because of the union, and now they could care less about immigrants despite being immigrants themselves. They’ve “made it” and are also religious hypocrites who “thank god”
What research was done by anyone that determined the VA had a glut of personnel? Was there any study done? Was it just assumed that the VA was going crazy hiring unneeded people? I am a vet, and I can tell you that, if anything, the VA could probably use more staff, at least in the clinics I use.
(1/2) Not only is THIS EO applicable to the entire civil service workforce, but will apparently open floodgates for those civil servants not vested with enough service time, to be treated as “at-will” employees that can (and probably will) be dismissed.
(2/3) I’m a fed contractor and there’s been a lot of talk in the office that I’m privy to. From discussion yesterday, it’s my understanding that there may even be a buyout program implemented for those who have already met service requirements.
(3/3) Those are proposed to come with a 2-year salary buyout, plus the already guaranteed pension benefits that the Government already provides to employees. And none of this even begins to touch on those who have been placed on furlough status, based on job classifications who may be at risk.
1. I work for vets in senior health care. They stopped paying for outside companies to transport vets to doctors offices because they want them to be driven by people that work for the va.
3. I take 90 yr old vet to get life saving infusions. He needs someone with him that talks to the doctor and tells his family how the procedure went. Plus schedules his next appt.
We’re already hurting. Theres only 3 va drivers in our area for hundreds of vets. Let me tell you why.
5. The va will reimburse our travel to get them groceries or other items but we can not bring the vet with us. So they are trapping vets in their homes. No one to take them out for anything.
I have dementia patients I can’t leave alone to get their food.
6. I have a vet with Louie body dementia who needs exercise to help his balance and prevent injuries/falls. He can no longer get that service because I can’t get him to therapy.
But there are millionaire vets who do get free services. Why isn’t there an income barrier to services?
My wife is also my caregiver. The VA caregiver rep asked her if they should bring in outside people to "help" her with me. She gave them a "WTF are you thinking" look and goes, "you want a STRANGER to walk into his house? Are you out of your goddamn mind?"
“MAGA and use troops to protect our border, maybe take back the Panama Canal” while simultaneously neglecting those same troops the moment their service is over.
It’s all a grift; it’s only ever been a self-indulging grift
Absolute garbage and as a Canadian I have even more to vent on. This is my first post on Blue but I hope to meet as many like minded peeps as possible.
Saying you "fought for America" while invading other countries is often considered contradictory because invading a foreign nation is typically seen as an act of aggression that goes against the idea of defending or protecting America, leading to questions about the true motives and justifications?
While your statement is true. We have an obligation to take care of those that serve our nation and sacrifice much so all of us can enjoy security. We have a DoDefense but its often used as a DoWar. We have 900 bases across the world. The service members follow orders. We owe a debt to them.
Choosing to serve your country and fight in their wars is not the same as declaring the war.
These people fought because they trusted the American administration was making the right choice. Whether that faith was misplaced… that’s another story, but not the service members fault.
Just so you geniuses that voted for Trump are aware: His federal hiring freeze and DEI job attacks affect ZERO illegal immigrants. These are AMERICAN jobs he just targeted.
On top of that might I add equal opportunity EO signed by LBJ and a more recent one focused on workplace discrimination. POTUS is openly attacking worker rights.
WE beat him and MAGA politicians when we NEVER stop asking is any of this shit helping your cost of living??? Get HUNGRY it’s time to eat!
If you are a veteran and voted for him… you knew this was coming. Not sure why you would vote against your own interests? You deserved better after your service.
Thank you for the additional information I absolutely despise Trump but I really hate being deceived on information that should be made available to make an informed decision about my dislike.
That is a typical tactic that is used to fool those who don’t dig deeper. As much as you dislike Trump, you should pay attention when he calls something Fake News. To date, I have not found him to be wrong once when he says it.
I guess is the politics game.
It's not just democracy. He wants to destroy the country. You hear that, John Thune, Joni Ernst, and the rest of you dereliction-of-duty GOP apologists?
Sis works at VA. They stopped hiring a yr ago. Her office has been short staffed since. “We posted to fill our 2 positions Tue. Friend applied by 9. Wed she got notice from VA canceling. Coworker got notice that job she applied for, & had just been told she had interview for, was canceled.”
We must find a way to unite, before it is too late. If everyone that’s not MAGA just didn’t file taxes, that would be amazing. But sadly, many impoverished depend on child tax credit and earned income credit, to survive. So they can’t even afford to consider not filing 😞this is by design. Dependency
this has been an ongoing fight for the last 35 yrs or so. there is always some pharoah trying to privatize the VHA. the money that flows witin this entity is bathed in blood. it is blood money and the scent of it draws monsters. they don't like Veteran. just the money alooted for their suffering.
It's almost like the guy that called soldiers "suckers & losers", dodged the draft, and disrespected Arlington National Cemetery, doesn't give a fuck about our troops and vets... Gee, Who'da thunk?
If you are a veteran and voted for him… you knew this was coming. Not sure why you would vote against your own interests? You deserved better after your service.
Have you ever worked at a va
No work gets done. Everything is so slow and inefficient. Better to get your care elsewhere. OR cases are canceled continuously for the dumbest reasons basically to avoid work.
I've worked at the VA. I made sure to provide the best care for our Veterans and most people around me did the same. We owe them so much more than this country gives them.
But was it efficient? How many patients did you see a day compared to your private practice peers. Trust me all the residents loved the va but ever my doctor who trained through them knows how inefficient it is/was
I see more patients as a private practitioner, obviously. I got a salary in the VA whereas I am paid per patient or given a quota as a private practitioner. Buddy, I think you just provide bad service as a VA employee and can't quite assume responsibility for that.
Ok sure. Haha I make or turnover 85 min instead of 20 min. Also I tell the preop nurse to spend 60 min with the pt instead of 20 I love working hard I get satisfaction from efficient work. Tough to change a system as a resident
@hotsauce-1975 I worked at a VAMC for nine years. when things got slow we kit a fire under someone. as a result,, great science happened (we were an on-site research lab and we helped figure out gulf war syndrome). sometimes care varies by facility.
I'm sorry to hear that's been your experience at the VA. I, on the other hand, have had wonderful experiences with all the doctors I've dealt with since joining the VA in 2019. They have literally kept me alive, and I have nothing at all bad to say about them. I am incredibly grateful for them.
Worked at? No.
Utilized? Yeah, plenty of times- and except for the emergency room visit after hours one evening (bloody dog bite), never had a problem.
And my SO uses private healthcare (BC Platinum), but I go with her on visits; VAs equivalent or a little better than her experiences.
They did not see this coming, who would have told them? Project 2024 is “fake”, Fox News never mentions it and we, the libtards lie. My BIL will be shocked.
Will be tough for workers at the VA too who just all got an email from Trump wanting them to answer "yes" to the email so Trump and his minions can contact ALL VA workers directly. For what? Tell them how to do their jobs or who to vote for?
You're right. I work for a contractor of the VA, and this will affect our jobs, and my company will likely reduce staffing if the VA's staffing is reduced. Sad news for more than just Vets. I didn't vote for Trump, but I might have to suffer the consequences 😞
THAT is the biggest, most frustrating part to me. The rest of us have to suffer the consequences of their ill-informed, ignorant, selfish, hateful actions. ☹️
I wish politics were the sleepy topic it once was instead of a bunch of one time voters showing up for the hype-all in time to make a shitty impact they’re too ill informed to assess in real time.
Tbh I get it but this order indiscriminately impacts a lot of folks who didn’t vote for it who are just trying to get services and/or provide healthcare
My father in law survived purely on va benefits and mooching off his mother in law. His whole personality is consuming trump media. The leopard is a-comin.
You forgot it sucks now
Have you worked at a VA Nothing gets done always a reason to avoid doing something. Worked at the Manhattan VA they do 1/4 the cases as a regular hospital per room. Thought it was just there. Northport VA does even less.
This is not a bug, it is a feature. The plan is to gut the VA and make it horrible so they can outsource it all to UnitedHealth, BC/BS, Cigna, Humana…The Department of Veterans Affairs will be decimated and the bribes/campaign contributions from the big insurance companies will start coming in.
Comments
(p.s. I come from a military family, I lost my brother over in Iraq, so I don't really think our veterans are Suckers and Losers. Our "president" does, though.)
I receive exceptional care through the VA. I support those who serve us with kindness and care.

DOGE intends on closing the VA hospitals and putting all the vets into the private insurance market so that the we are stuck with United Healthcare. No longer paying for Veteran healthcare will save them billions for their tax cuts.
But also a plan in there is to repeal the ACA.
If the ACA is repealed and the pre-existing conditions go back into play (and the no more insurance subsidies for the marketplace)
It's really going to be bad.
The cruelty is the point. It will only be bad for ordinary people.
The .1% club will be fine.
Expected.
I mean after all were losers and suckers.
The Fed gov’t CAN afford to fully fund vet care, Medicare for all, a job guarantee. It is the issuer of money not user.

Too risky, good candidates WILL NOT be applying, and vets WILL suffer. I read that he got 70% of the military vote, btw.
Your brothers got duped.

Oopsie
Why? Why did they support him?
Our troops deserve so much more

Disgraceful.
And NOW MAGA gets to find out what they voted for.🤷

John Bashom gets no sympathy from me, and if he thinks Trump or Ted Cruz are going to help him, he is nuts!
These are people with serious medical conditions.
I had a hospital orderly take a client while I was parking my car. I came in the building and he was gone!! I had no idea where he was.
We’re already hurting. Theres only 3 va drivers in our area for hundreds of vets. Let me tell you why.
That was in acted in 12/24. More-
I have dementia patients I can’t leave alone to get their food.
But there are millionaire vets who do get free services. Why isn’t there an income barrier to services?
As you both age you’ll discover it’s cheaper to get some home health care than afford assisted living housing.
“MAGA and use troops to protect our border, maybe take back the Panama Canal” while simultaneously neglecting those same troops the moment their service is over.
It’s all a grift; it’s only ever been a self-indulging grift

Being perpetually disappointed is getting old- and we aren’t even through January. 🥺

We gotta get these people out.
Bright idea
Secret weapon 😆
I guess is the politics game.
Please, what’s next? Are you going to be surprised that sharks bite?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not that bad for the rest of the world if this stops.

After all, the entitled are the only ones allowed to pursue happiness in this regime
