Don’t count on democrats to do a thing! They are weak and absolutely powerless.

Absolute disgrace. I’ve written my Senator. From Texas, not sure it will do any good. One of them is beyond redemption.

This is what happens when an asshole is elected.

The last person is really at the heart of how these Christian Nationalists are brainwashing these kids, and everyone against MAGA GOP and Trump, including minorities, need to understand this.

This, too is on the list. Remove any competent people at the DoD so Vladdy P. can start the cyber hacks unimpeded.

Veterans overwhelmingly voted for Trump; it feels like that should have consequences. I'd have liked for the VA to remain safe under Harris; veterans didn't want that. Ok! A regrettable choice that I am not in any way remotely interested in shielding them from the consequences of. Let them find out.

A heavy diet of Fox News/NewsMax and RW talk radio will do that.they still think Trump loves veterans.

We all need to speak up and speak out for our VETERANS...because we all know how the POEM ends...

If you cannot make it to the March 14th Veterans protest in DC, we can all protest someplace locally to get the message out.

Protect Veterans from DOGE!

stoneperch.bsky.social•2 days ago

Nope.. They voted for this by a large majority. I’m not doing anything to help.

hersoldier.bsky.social•1 day ago

Tomorrow at nine in front of our County Admin Building. More veterans reside in our little county per capita than any other in the US. Many WWII widows and elderly spouses caretaking them. My son did 3 tours to Iraq/ Afghanistan. This is the month in which he passed the 22nd💜💜💜

Trump despises Vets because they are a constant reminder of his own cowardice.

es527.bsky.social•1 day ago

To all veterans, thank you for your unwavering dedication and service. Please remind your family and friends elections do matter.

nissimss.bsky.social•2 days ago

Most Veterans voted for Trump. I doubt they will learn anything

Are we paying attention yet?

ceciliafund.bsky.social•2 days ago

Riling up
The Veterans does not
Seem like a winning idea for regime.
The common thread from every one I have ever met is tomorrow might never come. Most feel they have nothing to lose. And many don’t give AF, scary stuff.
Vets deserve so much better. Regime should hang their heads in shame. 💔😡

ramblinro.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes agree, I can’t imagine how this admin thinks this is good strategy in anyway🤬🤬🤬

jaded1111.bsky.social•2 days ago

We are losing all the expertise in our government. And when they change their minds and want these people back, they will have new jobs and will not trust working for the government again. That has already happened. This is so sad. We must act.

purplevh80.bsky.social•2 days ago

Only one question: what new jobs will they have? The job market was already cramped. Thousands of people are being laid off all over the country all at once. Where is the job market to absorb all of these unemployed people?

metsgirl84.bsky.social•1 day ago

If this story isn’t on Fox News or NewsMax, they won’t believe it (or care). My cousin was a Gulf War combat vet and he’s so far up Trump’s behind he can’t see daylight. He thinks Trump would never hurt veterans. A heavy diet of Fox/NewsMax/theBlaze/talk radio will do that.

They thought it wouldn’t affect them because they were doing a valuable important job. They thought he was only going after fraud.

I just talked to a neighbor who works at the VA yesterday and he said they cut the contract to sterilize medical equipment let that sink in. My husband's a veteran and he needs his medical care.

Hey, Fred. Can we get veterans groups to support the Tesla Boycott? Musk is on board with turning our backs on Ukraine and Europe and siding with Russia. He helps make it happen.

And he tries to gut the VA!
