Our men and women in uniform deserve better - period.

We can’t back any plan that pays for today by shortchanging tomorrow’s veterans.

The VFW won’t turn its back on those currently in harm’s way. Stand with us. https://t.co/CeC7053kTA #VFW #Veterans #HonorTheContract #VeteranAdvocacy #VeteranBenefits @VFW_OfficeDC

@HouseVetAffairs Best part: the VA was going to try to do this anyway, and they got Congress to be the bad guy. Like the minnow version of a carp, they fell for it.

@HouseVetAffairs Tinnitus and Apnea are not resolved by treatment, only controlled. These conditions remain and are appropriately rated for the lifelong impact to the Veteran. When the mirrors fall and the smoke dissipates, this is exactly what you were told it was: a cut to benefits.

@grok @MikeCanning7 @therealjoshbobs @SeahawksJoJo @spencerpratt @RoRo0719DY Are there any examples of this outside of California?

@NBCSports fix your stream so we can watch the Women’s Hockey Semifinals.

[Tim Murtaugh @TimMurtaugh]

If you know someone who doesn’t like hockey, show them this.

If they still don’t like hockey, you can go ahead and never speak to them again.

🚨 Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable

We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening, the fraud must be stopped.

People are mad at Rand Paul and Thomas Massie because they “can’t pass a bill,” instead of being mad at the other 533 members of the House and the Senate who won’t vote for the bills to balance the budget, release the Epstein files, end the department of education, end the Fed, cut government, end foreign aid, and end wars.

@SecVetAffairs @DeptVetAffairs We have to go to LAWYERS to fight the corrupt system while they continue to deny Community Care. Start holding people accountable vs. talk.

@SecVetAffairs @DeptVetAffairs @TBN @allenjacksonmin NOT TRUE AT ALL.

@SecVetAffairs @DeptVetAffairs Why not partner with local RHCs and FQHCs? Oh, because then they would see the value and stay.

I am told that as a state representative this is the moment where I'm supposed to express my heartfelt condolences and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political violence and stand unified as one people.

But we aren't "one people" are we?

The truth is we haven't been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore, if there ever was.

We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the similarities seem to abruptly end.

I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a "threat to democracy" for even the most innocent of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect.

And now the "effect" is a widow and two orphaned children, because the left couldn’t bear the thought of a peaceful man debating them and winning.

I don’t think they realize it yet, but murdering Charlie is going to be remembered as the day where we finally woke up to what this fight really is.

It’s not a civil dispute among fellow countrymen. It’s a war between diametrically opposed worldviews which cannot peacefully coexist with one another. One side will win, and one side will lose.

Charlie tried to win that fight through argumentation, through discussion, through peaceful resolution of differences.

And the other side murdered him.

Not because he was “extreme” or “inciting violence” or any other hyperbolic slur they hurled at him. They murdered him because he was effective. Because he was unafraid. Because he inspired others and made them feel like they had a voice, that they were not alone. And he did it at the very institutions which have fomented so much hatred toward conservatives.

I don’t want to “stand in solidarity” with the other side of the aisle. I want to defeat you. I want to defeat the godless ideology that kills babies in the womb, sterilizes confused children, turns our cities into cesspools of degeneracy and lawlessness…and that murdered Charlie Kirk.

Social media is aflame right now with leftist celebration of Charlie’s death.

I wonder if any among them understand what has just happened. If there is a Yamamoto somewhere in their midst warning, that all they have done is awoken a sleeping giant.

I doubt it. I think they gave up such introspection and self-awareness long ago.

I don’t know exactly what will happen next. I just know that it won’t be the same as what has happened in the past.

There will be thoughts and prayers…Charlie would have wanted prayers. Not for himself but for those left behind and for the country that he loved.

But then there will be a reckoning.

My Christian faith requires me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse me. It does not require me to stand idly by in the midst of savagery and barbarism...quite the opposite.

So every time I feel tired, every time I feel discouraged or overwhelmed, I am going to watch the video of a good man being murdered in Utah…I will force myself to watch it…and then I will return to the work of destroying the evil ideology responsible for that and so much more.

Rest with God Charlie, your fight is over.

Ours is just beginning.

@gigemtxaggies @SecVetAffairs @Kagan_M_Dunlap @mandatoryfunday @Viva_La_Vargas And they aren’t even doing it. They’re gatekeeping services and making community care more difficult to get to protect their fragile budgets.

[AV @AlohaVikes]

@DisneyNinerGuy @SecVetAffairs @Kagan_M_Dunlap @mandatoryfunday @Viva_La_Vargas That wouldn’t be in compliance with CMS rules and their contractual obligations. Unless of course, the were dropped due to the absurd VA and Optum authorization/denial process. I know of 3 other Veterans like me who pay out of pocket for private service connected care.
