Trump and Musk have cut vital programs at the VA, leaving many veterans in crisis abandoned. Our veterans answered the call, but now nobody will answer theirs. youtu.be/dNkPuZ0gRdI?...[image or embed]

Comments

The US Armed Forces are already struggling to find suitable recruits. What is being done to the VA will further erode our nation's military strength. El Rey Dotardo II is transforming the 'coalition of the willing' to the 'coalition of suckers who will defend the US, against their collective better judgment'...

They need to get the most disgusting, disfigured, minority veterans, and put them right at the front for the video cameras to see.

So the Republicans can hate veterans even more.

C'mon Donnie Fascist...send the police in to arrest them for an "illegal protest".

Elon Musk to introduce Cyber Warrior soon to go along with his cyber federal employee. Americans will now enjoy the grear service they already get from Comcast or the Florida DMV. they may be bots but their healthcare costs are minimal.

We talk about the trump voters who are now surprised by the President they elected who despises working class people including veterans. Why are they surprised? Yeah, you knew he hated black and brown people but why is he hurting white people too?

#5 | Posted by danni at 2025-03-14 10:54 AM

why is he (Trump) hurting white people too?

#5 | Posted by danni

Because you're either someone who lives on Olympus, like he does, or you're meat.

Trump enjoys hurting people; destroying them. We have all the (ongoing) proof that we need.

#6 | Posted by Zed at 2025-03-14 10:58 AM

Everyone who voted for Trump is expecting him to carve out a special exception for them. This includes veterans, farmers, federal workers, the billionaires who endorsed him, red state voters, red district voters in swing or blue states. For the most part, they still don't care who he hurts as long as it's not them.

#7 | Posted by Gal_Tuesday at 2025-03-14 10:58 AM

They better be careful.

We deport people for protesting now.

Protesting things Trump likes is a clear violation of the First Amendment, right Jeff?

Well, he certaibly has "brought people together"!...against him

#9 | Posted by e1g1 at 2025-03-14 01:18 PM

Today, 14 March (3/14) was chosen as the protest date because of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which states that anyone who engaged in insurrection is barred from holding office. Trumpf violated that oath when he incited the attack against Capitol Hill 6 Jan 2021.

President Donald Trumpf's Itinerary for 3/14/25:

12:00 PM Sign executive orders
2:50 PM Depart White House en route to Department of Justice
3:00 PM Deliver speech at DOJ
4:05 PM Depart DOJ en route to Mar-a-Lago
7:10 PM Arrive at Mar-a-Lago

Another hard day of work put in by Kim Jong Trumpf while the veterans are outside protesting.

Remember this?:

Donald Trump reportedly disparaged disabled vet who was severely wounded in Afghanistan and sang God Bless America'

Former President Donald Trump made disparaging comments about a wounded US Army veteran after he sang "God Bless America" during his presidency, according to a new report.

Trump allegedly made the remarks at a welcome ceremony for Gen. Mark Milley at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in 2019, after Army Capt. Luis Avila, who was severely wounded in Afghanistan, sang "God Bless America," the Atlantic reported.

"Why do you bring people like that here? No one wants to see that, the wounded," Trump allegedly said to Milley in front of several witnesses as he walked over to congratulate Avila after the performance.

There was a rumor that the sad sacks who went to Boaz's Konservative Kry Klub shared their passwords with each other.

BullBringer has stated there are a few different people who access that username.

Yes, Eberly confirmed that to be the case with the Bellringer handle at least.

Rcade is an Anti-peace war monger? That's disappointing to see, but now that the Democrats love Dick Cheney it makes sense.

This was the line that did me in. But if he's hurt by this comment, perhaps he should examine what I was pointing out.

#17 | POSTED BY BLUEWAFFLES

I haven't read RCade once mention being in favor of going to was to claim Greenland, or Panama, or Canada.

That's all been your boy, Trump.

And guess what. You're gonna support him.

Womp womp.

How are those egg prices coming along?

#26 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-03-14 04:05 PM

So no comment on Eggs Clown? You should have chosen a better line of attack my friend ...

#27 | Posted by Bluewaffles at 2025-03-14 04:08 PM

Egg prices are falling

There no mention in that article of Trump or republicans having done anything to help that.

Because they couldn't care less.

Womp.

"one disingenuss POS."

for correctly pointing out egg prices are falling and then posting a link to substantiate the claim?

There are many other links to validate it and if you could claim otherwise, you would have done that by now.

Sorry you guys lost your Ukrainian war. It was funny watching Zelenskyy show his true colors to the world, and sad he had to come back begging to Trump.

He's not.

Republicans gave up on America when they had to call a Black man their president.

Ever since then, their only objective has been to destroy this country.

Donald Trump is vicious, incompetent, mentally ill, and a traitor to his country.

I'll keep on saying that until that vicious, incompetent, mentally ill, traitorous man makes it illegal and comes for me.

Eggs are going for $10.00 a dozen where I live.

I think that we, too, can expect the price to go down when no one cares to buy them.

Bring back the draft, have all American young people, male or female, bone spurs or not, serve two years in the military or two and a half years in civilian service. When they ended the draft America split into two parts, the corporate boardrooms that ran things for the profit of the well off, and the rest of us.
I mourn the changes in my country, we, at least those of us at the bottom of the economic pyramid, are being tossed about in a tornado and have no way to get our bearings, since our government really doesn't give a care about us.

#64 | Posted by Hughmass at 2025-03-15 06:22 PM

#64 I agree 100% that the draft was an equalizer but still not perfect. It made most Americans participate in decisions of our government and feel connected. It made politicians pay a political price for waging war. Serving and the draft should provide benefits and not just being screwed.

#65 | Posted by Robson at 2025-03-15 07:38 PM

"Serving and the draft should provide benefits and not just being screwed."

Thanks to Trump, we now know Veterans have been ripping off America for decades.
