@HouseGOP Simultaneously, nearly every Republican voted to increase spending by hundreds of billions with no plan to pay for it, which is why Americans are suffering rampant inflation today.
I do not support the use of FLOCK cameras.
I believe they’re a violation of our 4th Amendment rights.
If I was on the jury of the man in Virginia who destroyed 13 of them, I wouldn’t vote to convict him.
We are living in a constant state of surveillance.
Enough is enough.
250 years after America declared it's independence from England, we have once again become a colony of a parasitic foreign nation. It's time to declare our independence again and cut ALL ties with Israel. 🇺🇸
You mfs have made us sit here and take this shit for YEARS. We are so obviously compromised it's embarrassing. And when we call this what it is; treason, no one cares.
Why is that?
WTF? Why did Republican Congressman Brian Mast wear an Israeli military uniform inside our nations capitol?
He is also the chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. He needs removed from the committee and removed from office.
No other country would allow this to happen.
Yes. Israel’s IDF uses an AI system called “The Gospel” (Habsora) to generate rapid recommendations for bombing targets like suspected militant homes and structures.
Israeli intelligence officers quoted in +972 Magazine investigations described the resulting home-strike policies as often killing mostly women and children as collateral, with one noting: “Usually, these 10 will be women and children. So absurdly, it turns out that most of the people you killed were women and children.”
Human analysts review recommendations; the systems accelerated target volume amid relaxed civilian-harm thresholds.
BYPASSING THE RULES: THE DECEPTIVE TRUTH ABOUT H.R. 9237 SECTION 108
Chairman @RepBost offered a manager’s amendment to the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act (H.R. 9237.) Don't be fooled by their latest "compromise."
Originally, Section 108 was written to take effect the very day after it was signed into law. Under pressure from intense veteran backlash, the manager’s amendment shifted the effective date to October 1, 2026.
Moving the date changes absolutely nothing about the substance of the cuts—it just alters the day.
TWO SEPARATE BODIES, ONE MASSIVE END-RUN
Congress and the VA are two entirely separate entities. The VA is the executive agency responsible for clinical rating schedules; Congress is the legislative body meant to pass broad laws.
By including section 108 into H.R. 9237, Congress is stepping out of its lane and hijacking a clinical agency process.
They are executing a separation-of-powers end-run to force a budget cut, explicitly to strip away the six legal administrative safeguards they know the VA cannot legally bypass:
➡️ Analysis of and responses to 2,680+ public comments.
➡️ Revision of the draft final rule and internal VA/legal reviews.
➡️ Inter-agency and OMB/OIRA economic clearance.
➡️ Publication in the Federal Register and Congressional Review Act scrutiny.
Even the VA admits it. VA spokesman Quinn Slaven recently clarified:
“No changes are planned or imminent.”
“VA is still reviewing the proposed rule... VA received significant public comment on the proposal, and it would need to undergo significant changes prior to being finalized.”
THE BOTTOM LINE: Shifting the date to October 1 does not change the fact that Congress is trying to bypass the rules to strip $57B from future veterans. A delayed cut is still a cut.
ACTION NEEDED: Contact your representatives right now. Tell them to oppose any attempt to codify the 2022 VA rating cuts in H.R. 9237 and demand that they strike Section 108 completely from the bill!

Today, I led 45 of my Democratic colleagues in opposing Republican’s plan to slash disabled veterans’ benefits. We stand with veterans in the fight against these harmful cuts & call on VA Secretary Collins to join us.
@HouseVetAffairs “Understand they have to be responsible stewards…” you had th balls to write that??? I’m going to start a NGO 501(c) in Afghanistan. Perhaps Congress can give me $600M/qtr as they do Jewish Family Services or $40M/wk as thy do the Taliban. You’re tone death to fraud.
