@TigTiegen Appalling. One point to clarify though- the Veterans Home is run by New York State. You need to put @KathyHochul on blast for letting an abuser remain on the state payroll. Guy needs to be put in prison for elder abuse.
This is a disgrace.
A Gulf War Marine veteran named Albert O’Toole who served this country, took a blast that left him with TBI, and was later diagnosed with Alzheimer’s was beaten by his aide Matthew Cox inside the New York State Veterans Home in Montrose, New York.
His wife Angela Sangro became concerned after seeing unexplained bruises and heavy sedation. She installed a hidden camera. The footage shows the aide yanking food out of Albert’s hands, grabbing him by the neck, throwing him into a chair, punching him, and striking him in the head with a broom while he cried out in pain. No one came to help.
The state fired the abuser.
But the federal VA? Still has him employed. Still paying him while the case drags on.
You make veterans fight through hell just to get the benefits and compensation they earned with their blood and sacrifice. You move fast to cut or reduce what’s owed to them.
But when one of your own is caught on camera assaulting a defenseless veteran? You keep him on the federal payroll like it’s nothing.
@SecVetAffairs you talk about accountability. Here it is. Fire this man from the VA now. No pay. No protection. No more dragging it out.
@SecWar our warriors come home broken from fighting for this nation. They deserve better than a system that protects abusers while making veterans fight for every dollar they earned.
@SpeakerJohnson this is on you too. Oversight without teeth is just theater. Do your job.
This isn’t how you treat the men and women who served. This is a betrayal.
Veterans FIRST.
Zero tolerance for those who abuse them.
Immediate action. No excuses.
If you’re not outraged by this, you’re not paying attention.
Semper Fi.
@TheTankGuns
This is what the Democrats support:
- A man who fantasized about murdering a Republican and his children
- A womanizer with a Nazi tattoo
- A man who wants our border to be "our front porch"
- An Al Qaeda activist
- A woman who blamed the 9/11 attacks on America
- A woman who wants to use your tax dollars to fund all transgender procedures
These protests against ICE are a paid effort and not at all organic.
Leftist protesters are now physically blocking entrances to Citizens Bank branches across the country merely because the bank provides banking to contractors who work for ICE.
This ISN’T organic outrage. This IS coordinated. This IS a well funded effort. We MUST follow the money.
Who is paying these people to attack American businesses that support border enforcement and immigration law? It is the same dark money networks that have been bankrolling anti-American chaos for years.
More riddles for @RoKhanna. The President of El Salvador came to the same conclusion as DOGE and celebrated the shutdown of USAID. Are you accusing the President who reduced his country’s murder rate by 95% of supporting the murder of children?
Gillibrand's son graduated from undergrad on Sunday. Today it's reported that he's received $30 million in venture capital funding to launch a derivatives exchange. His mom sat on the Senate Agriculture committee—which has jurisdiction over derivates—until this past year
Swing and a miss! Major League Baseball encouraged players to wear “Black Lives Matter” on their uniforms but reportedly threatened Christians who write Bible verses on their hats. @USEEOC will investigate whether this amounts to religious discrimination.
California’s Voting System Is RIGGED By Design, Democrats Have Been Working to Legalize Fraud Since 2012
-First, they issued driver's licenses for illegals.
-Next, they instituted motor voter.
-Then they made universal mail-in ballots permanent.
They’ve made it all legal.
LA GOP Chair Roxanne Hoge: “Everything has been baked into the cake since 2012-13...”
“We still don’t know the denominator for this election because ballots can arrive until Tuesday. That precinct-level map is not up to date; it only shows people who voted in person.”
Ex-YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki admits to deleting over 1 million COVID videos to silence anti vaxxers.
People died because of this evil woman's censorship.
On CNN, @kaitlancollins had John Bolton on constantly and treated him as one of America's wisest foreign policy gurus, when he's in fact one of the planet's most bloodthirsty warmongers.
Then she defended him when he was indicted as the victim of political persecution. Now?
Munster and colleague Claude Kwe returned from the Republic of Congo carrying a large case they told CBP contained diagnostic equipment.
Inside: 113 vials in Styrofoam coolers. 17 contained deactivated mpox. 1 contained chickenpox. 2 contained human DNA.
They face up to 5 years in prison.
Federal prosecutors just charged an NIH virologist with smuggling biological materials into the United States.
His name is Vincent Munster. He's not a minor scientist. He runs the Virus Ecology Section at one of the government's premier BSL-4 labs.
This is bigger than a customs charge. Thread 🧵
