Any va employee who disrespects Veterans should be immediately fired. I believe many of the va employees hate Veterans.

Absolutely reprehensible. Karma will deal with them if the legal system fails to do so.

Trump needs to investigate, fumigate and revamp the worst ones to the hilt to make an example of them, then get moving on the rest ASAP.
And start the hotline to the WH.
I pray his VA pick is ready to roll up his/her sleeves.

These people know better. They learned proper procedures in school and know this is wrong. So there is NO question these acts are a result of the attitude of those in charge. Crap flows downhill and the top turd needs to be flushed! And a lot of thers who were in a position to intervene, then a whole new culture needs to be created and every capable worker retrained and tested for conformance.

This is how a swamp-draining is done.

My mom worked in a VA hospital and on more than one occasion she had to go after a nurse for being abusive. One Jamaican nurse ripped a pudding out of an elderly vet’s hand as he was trying to eat it because it was past dinner time, and he started to cry. Needless to say my mom jerked it right back out of her hand and gave it back to him and promptly filed a written complaint. This of course went nowhere due to bureaucracy and the nurse’s race. This was not an unusual story. My mom said that kind of thing happened all of the time.
