EUGENE D NEWCOMBE

I am a veteran's advocate helping veterans to overcome VA disability claim denials.

@RepBrownley @VetAffairsDems @SecVetAffairs @DeptVetAffairs Each and every time I use the VA for healthcare, VA fails to deliver even the very basic elements. Just left the VA frustrated after trying to get treatment for a very painful foot condition. Sadly the VA care is no care at all. Maybe you people should try reaching out to me.

Sadly, the handwriting is on the wall: the new review/appeals system will create extremely long lines at the BVA level. Way longer than the old system and that’s a very scary thought. @VAVetBenefits @VetAffairsDems

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

Why doesn’t the VA allow a higher-level review of a higher-level review decision? I’m no lawyer, but that policy seems to conflict with the Veterans Appeals Improvement and Modernization Act of 2017. This policy will force veterans into a years long decision process. @VAChair

I've addressed the issue to the local VBA director. I'm ignored. Asked to meet with my congressperson to discuss the issue. I'm ignored. I could go on and on, but what’s the point. No one at any level of government is ever going to listen to me: a nobody. @DeptVetAffairs

@amyklobuchar WOW talking to lots of people in Iowa. Funny, I am from your state and I can't get you to listen to a damn word about how veterans could use your support. I guess I need to move to Iowa to get your attention. @GOP @DNC @StarTribune @wccoradio @KSTP @kare11 @MPRnews @tptAlmanac

@TexasTribune @amyklobuchar Represent all of America? How exactly? Here’s how: she will do what she thinks is best for you. In other words, you are to stupid to know what is best. There is no way for Dems to represent the best interests of republicans and vice versa. What she says is disingenuous. @DNC

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

@RepMaxRose @VetAffairsDems @RepMarkTakano You people are so full of it: stand down for what? So, the VA can figure out what to do? Are you MAD! Don’t you think if the VA was competent to address the suicide issue they would have? You people in congress need to get a clue. Call me to be schooled. @DNC @GOP @DeptVetAffairs

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

Many veterans have to fight tooth and nail for their earn benefits. I help these veterans fight every single day. Sadly, our elected representatives refuse to help in that fight. I have lost all respect for congress. @VAChair

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

Having used twitter for a year or so, it is useless media as to dealing with my elected representatives. As a matter of fact, I haven’t found anyway of realistically communicating with my elected representatives. @tomemmer @SenAmyKlobuchar @TinaSmithMN @GOP @DNC @VetAffairsDems

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

@amyklobuchar You ignoring my requests to speak with you to discuss veterans issues is unacceptable. You and POTUS have a lot of "unacceptables" in common. @VAChair @GOP @DNC @VetAffairsDems @StarTribune @starsandstripes @tomemmer @WCCO @KSTP @myfox9 @kare11

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

I believe all people serving in congress are cowards. I have not once had my tweets, emails, or letters answered by Senator Klobuchar or Smith. Why are they afraid to answer me? Maybe they are too busy to help a veteran in need. @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenTinaSmith @GOP @DNC @VAChair

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

@VetAffairsDems @RepConorLamb I haven’t tweeted in awhile as I am so overloaded helping veterans fight their unjust disability compensation claim denials. PTSD are just letters of the alphabet to Congress. Congress can and should do more to help veterans in need. Tweet me for advice. @VAChair @GOP @tomemmer

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

@amyklobuchar If the ability to fool the public is "the right stuff to win," you got a good shot at winning. My personal experience with Amy proves she will not stand up to government corruption. Don't be fooled by your her! @TheDemocrats @GOP @DMRegister @gazettedotcom @KCCINews @WHOhd @WCCO

[EUGENE D NEWCOMBE @eugene_newcombe]

@VetAffairsDems @RepMarkTakano @SpeakerPelosi More BS, talk from you politicians won’t stop a single suicide. It takes action to get things done. The veteran suicide rate in 2001 was 19 a day. That number has remained at 19 or more a day to the present. Yeah, we veterans are really a priority. @TheDemocrats @GOP @tomemmer
