Veteran health benefits to be cut by 22%. Stand Up against the Fascist Right.

Everything in state should become veteran's assistant - Zelenskyy (www.pravda.com.ua)

Ukraine must take care of veterans of the Russian-Ukrainian war. This applies to everything from the work of the military medical commissions and rehabilitation to assistance with education, housing and business, and officials who do not understand this must be replaced.

#PSA - important listen from #NPR about Veteran’s Benefits for our #Veteran LGBTQ Brothers, Sisters, and Friends. Veterans unjustly robbed of their benefits because of “Other Than Honorable” discharges for not being Straight, can get their benefits restored. Help is out there! Please give a listen, and help get the word out!

Tommy Tuberville makes the country less safe to force his political will

Tommy Tuberville (one of coup leaders) is now endangering our entire military and national security for petty political gains. He shamefully disregards the oath he swore, and Republican leadership's failure to hold him accountable is just as responsible. This has gone on too long!

Only in America, do we strong emphasize the importance of thanking our public service members and Veterans for their service, while simultaneously voting and striking down and defunding their benefits.

Wishing all #Veterans a great day today, unlike #Trump who thinks this day is for Losers and Suckers. I hope you Vets are smart enough not to re-elect this useless piece of human debris.

I was at a Burns Night celebration held at Warragul RSL on the weekend, and met Dr Richard Evans, who is conducting research in to the needs of Victorian veterans and their families.

If you've served in the ADF or if you're family of a veteran, Richard would love to speak with you or hear from you through a confidential survey.

Many veterans of the #Trump admin have a similar warning for #Ukraine as it battles #Russia’s invasion. “US support for Ukraine would end,” said a snr US official who served under Trump & #Biden.

“The point is, he saw absolutely no point in #NATO,” Kelly said. “He was just dead set against having troops in #SouthKorea, again, a deterrent force, or having troops in #Japan, a #deterrent force.”

Israel’s crimes have been covered up by our governments for decades:

“Jacob Flickinger killed by Israel in Gaza was a Canadian Forces veteran. This, however, is not the first time a former or serving Canadian Forces member has been killed by Israel. Read about the 2006 killing of Canadian Maj. Paeta Hess-von Kruedener”: #Canada #veterans

Ugh, I don't have the money to leave yet and my friend just called me.
Apparently, University of Indiana put a bunch of Bullshit on my friend's medical records that indicate that the doctors there tried to have him declared incompetent to make his own decisions.
He went to his primary care provider today and his doctor kept repeating, "Be careful what you say."
My friend is now refusing ALL medical intervention and has decided to go home and simply die.

It's , so the Trumps are seizing the opportunity to tell the world how much they've sacrificed for America. No, seriously, that's what (the dumbest ) decided to proclaim on this day when we honor those who have actually served their country. Of course, Trump thinks are 'losers' for serving, but he and his family never miss an opportunity to put themselves up on an unearned pedestal. This family is scum.
