Usually, when I need an appointment at the VA, I can get one within 2 weeks. Today, I called for an appointment and the next available is in May, 2026. Firing 35K people will do that. The Trump administration hates veterans.

One citizen said that federal agents in Idaho pointed guns at her children, ages 6 and 8, and dragged her 14-year-old daughter out of a truck and zip-tied her.

The mother told investigators that an agent threatened to “fucking blow your head off.”

The horrific tragedy at Brown University is the 389th mass shooting this year and the 230th gun incident on school grounds so far this year.

This is not normal and we don't have to live this way.

True Breaking News (Washington Post): VA to cut 35,000 health care jobs across nation like nurses & doctors. VA already strained.

Did our vets refuse to give back medals to melt into gold bars/coin/ballroom sconces for Trump?

That he has a goddamn heart?

It would “severely intrude on the President’s prerogative to control the image he presents to the public” and force him to “share his platform” with an ASL interpreter."

For the first time in decades, I handed my successor an air traffic controller workforce that was growing instead of shrinking.

Disturbingly, the Trump administration can't or won't say whether that’s still the case.

What if President Trump doesn’t hear cheers when he steps to the 50-yard line, flags aflutter and salutes a’-snappin’? What if the crowd at this uniquely patriotic game booed the president?

Can you boo President Trump at the Army-Navy Game?
President Donald Trump will attend the Army-Navy Game on Saturday in Baltimore. There will be protests outside, but probably none within M&T Stadium. Maybe there should be.

We have our answer: 4 million.

Senate Republicans just voted to kick 4 million Americans off their health insurance to fund their tax cuts for billionaires & mega-corporations.

I agree with those who say we need to drastically reform the system, but this isn't reform, it's regression.
