Fair enough. You may have seen me mention before I'm retired army. I get all my Healthcare, medications and dental through the VA. I also receive VA disability along with my pension. I'm also a VSO with the America legion and DAV helping veterans file disability claims and navigate their education and medical benefits. My point is, if anything Trump does negatively effects the VA it will impact me personally, as well as the veterans that I help. If that happens I'll be on here bitching about it.

Your welcome.

If you need assistance with the G.I. bill message me.

That article is behind a pay wall. Do you know if it pertains to the Hiring Freeze E.O. dated Jan 20? If so, this paragraph is in the E.O.: This order does not apply to military personnel of the armed forces or to positions related to immigration enforcement, national security, or public safety. Moreover, nothing in this memorandum shall adversely impact the provision of Social Security, Medicare, or Veterans’ benefits. In addition, the Director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) may grant exemptions from this freeze where those exemptions are otherwise necessary

If anyone is interested CBS News uploaded a YouTube video of the Trump/Musk briefing, it's about a half hour long.

I keep saying there's rampant corruption on both sides, I firmly believe it. This seems next level don't give a *****.

I love irony

Armored tesla?

And this is who we elected as our president. Our political system is broken.

Still ignoring the point. Full TDS mode, living in Trump's America must be miserable for you 😝

The thing is, if it is a lie it's not mine. It was a direct quote from the NYC Comptroller from your post. How do you not get that?

Weave, you and I are able to have civil discussions on here. He has shown time and again he has no interest in that.

I understand that, but being a snarky, condescending bitch telling me to stop lying and do better when I quoted his own post is asinine.

Again It's your own post that quotes NYC comptroller Brad Lander calling it fema money. Your a self righteous, obnoxious, combative twit with no desire to engage in civil discussion. Have a good day.

It's your own post that quotes NYC comptroller Brad Lander calling it fema money. Do better.

"this is money that the federal government previously disbursed for shelter and services and is now missing." To whom was this fema money going to for shelter and services? Illegal immigrants? I'm not aware of any recent disaster in NYC that would require fema's assistance.

Me neither. I was thinking the lawsuit is a tactic to get Hochul to use state and local law enforcement to round up illegals? Maybe not.

Obviously fraud, waste and abuse isn't something that started under Biden, but why have previous administration's, both Republican and Democrat, not give it the attention it deserved?
