Picking radishes is no easy task. Efrén spends 8-10 hrs/day on his knees, picking and sorting the radishes into small bunches to fill dozens of crates a day in CA's Ventura County. He's proud to have worked in America's fields for 49 years. #WeFeedYou

This is reprehensible.

FOTUS has demonstrated over and over again that he does not respect or care about our Vets. Call your representative and demand that the VA continue to support VASP and keep veterans housed.

The Trump admin may not be familiar with "facts," but here are a few:

- The suicide rate for veterans is ~1.5x higher than it is for nonveterans
- Since 988 launched 2.5 years ago, the Veterans Crisis Line has had a 22.7% increase in calls
- Since last summer, the VCL received > 1.6 million calls
🚨🚨🚨
Musk and Trump fired 1000 VA staff, including staff working the Veterans Crisis Line. That’s confirmed.

Musk and Trump are firing Veterans across federal agencies. That’s confirmed.

NOW is the time to make some noise.
NOW is the time to stand firm.

Make every day a living hell for them.

The war on minorities from Trump is beginning with the effort to erase transgender people. This death is on Trump and his awful minions.
Transgender veteran dies by suicide at Syracuse VA Medical Center hanging themselves outside the top of the hospital’s parking garage Monday.
Witnesses said the person was wrapped in a body-length transgender pride flag. Are you MAGAts proud of your country now???

Veterans EARNED their healthcare. Republicans are ripping it away—slashing funding, blocking benefits, and forcing Veterans into a system that will fail them. We won’t stand by while they spit on those who served.

Save veterans' healthcare! #SaveVeteransHealthCare

As a veteran, I can tell you this: They have no f*cking idea of the backlash this would create. If they start taking away the promised benefits of people who are already depressed and pissed off 3/4 of the time...
