Those in the VA are murderers and should lose
their pensions, and face grand juries.

I’m sorry, until we take care of our vets before we take care of Pookie and Jose, I will not recommend national service to any young people.

I know how to solve this, albeit in a radical fashion. For every vet that commits suicide after waiting for 3 weeks, for example, we randomly select a VA employee for execution. That would speed up the operation.

Not sure why 5 to 6 weeks is an issue. I am private pay with insurance and I had to wait over 2 months to get into a cardiologist. It is common to wait 6 weeks to get into a doctor when we are in CA. Even in So Dak (summer home) 3 to 4 weeks is normal.

Never a “safe space” for the Vets.

Never a sanctuary city for the Vets.

Never a clean bill for the Vets.

My health insurance jumped 70% since CrapCare took effect. I wouldn’t bitch if the rate hikes were effectively benefiting the Vets. But unfortunately, CrapCare amounts to nothing more than waste and fraud.

Yes, TigerClaws, Trump must make this issue a priority.

Wouldn’t it be grand if cities offered sanctuary to Veterans?
If you are a veteran and come to our town we will help you to recover, rebuild, prevail and prosper!

I could write a book about what the VA did to my father. Nobody would believe it though. I think it’s criminal.

Everybody wants him to address everything in 48 hours or less.

Folks, he’s going to do the best he humanly can.

He didn’t make this mess. It may take a short period of time.

He is committed to it, and he is the first president that has been.

He will do it.

Over 7000 a year? Hard to believe.

*** Veterans Crisis Line (800) 273-8255 Option 1 ***

Anyone who is suicidal and a veteran needs this number handy. Every VA facility has this number in the introductory phone message.

In Corpus the yellow team has been without a doctor for over a year. We have 4 doctors now. We are suppose to have 12. You have to sign in to will call list to be seen that day.
No radiology. No ortho at ALL. Pharmacy runs the VA now. They have pharmacists overseeing every doctors orders.
Doctors in town dont want to take vouchers. Takes to long to get their money then only 75% or so. Tri West is getting better but they throw so many tools in the gearbox it grinds to a halt.
Took two years to get seen in behavioral health. Lot of employees care but they wont rage against the machine. Still beats Medicare but quotos need to be filled and got to get them bonuses! Myheathevet.gov works good.
NO IMMIGRATE HAS A RIGHT TO MEDICAL CARE BEFORE THE VET!
