Obama Cuts 2.6 Billion From U.S. Veterans, Gives 4.5 Billion To Syrians Instead
Veteran Affairs is one of the most mismanaged government program in the United States. Veterans cannot make appointments, the cost for treatment is outrageous, over 307,000 veterans died waiting for care, yet nobody has been held accountable. The most recent atrocity by the VA came when the VA went to Congress, less than three months before the end of the fiscal year, short $2.6 billion in funds in order to care for the veterans.
The Secretary of Veteran Affairs, Robert McDonald, told Congress that if they do not receive $2.6 billion more in funds, they will have to deny veterans the care they deserve. The VA has been known to delay doctor appointments, especially in the past 7 years. Robert McDonald has only been Secretary of Veteran Affairs for the past year, yet he has already made some horrific things. “What you’re seeing is a sea of change in the way VA operates. Historically, we’ve managed to a budget instead of managing to requirements based on veterans’ needs.”
After discussing the possibility of closing some of the VA hospitals, Congress passed an emergency spending bill worth $3.5 billion. Josh Earnest, White House spokesman, said that the United States has committed to spend $4.5 billion in order to help rebuild Syria while also addressing the refugee camps scattered throughout Europe. $419 million will be designated for humanitarian aid assisting with Syrian refugees. The money is coming from the United States Agency for International Development which means that Congress will not get the chance to deny the funding.
While thousands of veterans are dying waiting for medical care and even more are living on the streets, the United States is sending over several billion dollars to help other countries. The United States can’t even take care of those who protect its freedom, yet the Obama Administration doesn’t seem to notice or care.
I said it before close our boarders and take care of our own
how about we leave the military, you wont have to answer to be shipped out. volunteer your services as a patriot to keep our liberties and freedoms for generations to come. what’s the current administration going to do if there is no military to go bully other countries. what are they going to do when he decides to call Marshall law, but no military to enforce it? nothing, there is nothing they can do… that is just 1 of the hundred or so ways to start taking this country back from the undercover freedom killers.
We need Obama and his family and part of Congress out now.
This is not right for him to take.care of his people and let the veterans do with out
The bluewater navy is suffering from Vietnam and he dont seem to care he is nothing but a half ass that dont know anything except to give where not needed.
Leave it up to our so called GREAT leaders to screw the United States of America and the citizens that makes it a great country. I am not talking about the illegals , and all the rest that gets so damn much attention from our fine government
and to hell with the rest of us. Maybe we should go to their country since they have probably destoried it and on verge of destoring what the government doesn’t over here . I am sorry for how our government treats our nations Veterans.
Hold him accountable,impeach and prosecute.He’s making death choices for US disabled vets.So wrong and should be in prison.
I’m glad I gave 11 years of my life for my country, 6 tours oversees…now disabled and the people we had to take orders from are now telling us to go screw ourselves…thanks guys, means a lot to know that we don’t mean shit to you… Next time you pick a fight how about you POLITICIANS and your families go fight. The rest of us will just stay home and watch y’all die on the news.
That piece of shit Muslim needs to be out of our country now! He has destroyed our America, our great nation. How dare you scumbama give billions to your Syrian people while your vets are left to die. I pray Hillary the loser don’t get in office. She is just a crooked and corrupt as the rest. Democrats have ruined this country and will continue to do so as long as they are allowed. Go Trump close our borders put the illegals out, get these Muslims that don’t belong out and let’s take care of our own it’s time.
Well said terri, how about releasing the Enemy At Gitmo so they can go back and join the fight against us again, he should be Impeached on that alone, its called TREASON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am Canadian. I have just sung for myself the American national anthem “Oh say can you see…” And was brought to tears for what it says! The United States has been made great by Almighty God, and stands a bastion for good against evil. I have endless admiration for the American military and their commitment to defend their freedom, and hope for all the free world. I can only pray that America wakes up to the Trojan horse that has penetrated their defenses and desires to destroy America from within. Obama hates America! His glib tongue and syrupy words have deceived the American people! Congress and the Senate need to rise up NOW to impeach that traitor and bring down all his insidious plans. God bless America still!!
