THATS IT
HOW CAN YOU EXPECT A COMBAT VET TO FOLLOW ALL OF THE RULES AND BE INTOUCH WITH THE SYSTEM ,WHEN THE VET NEEDS HELP TO KEEP HIM SELF IN TACK TO JUST FUNCTION, I ONCE COULD KEEP UP,AGE BRING ABOUT A LOT OF CHANGE, TO THE POINT THAT YOU NEED HELP,YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO KEEP UP WHEN YOU WAS MUCH YOUNGER ,OLDER VET THAT HAVE MENTAL PROBLEMS CANT KEEP UP WITH THIS SYSTEM,THE SYSTEM IS TO HARD, MOST OF THE VETS JUST HAVE GED, AND THIS SYSTEM IS SET UP MUCH HIGHTER THAN WHEN A VET STARTED THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE
You lying worthless democrats. There is no project 25.just more lies
I am living in Pànama currently. What benefits are available to me? I am 100% IU. If I must go to the US will my travel be reimbursed? Thank you
Veteran's are being studied like lab rats. Palestinian Lab Rat Experiment. Hearing voices means one can hear the Jinn and spell's thus is being CURSED! Lot's of Islamic daily steadfast prayer is needed to ricochet incoming spell's back at the warlock's!
Can wearing hearing aids qualify for hearing loss?
Cut benefits they have to get by the Congress and the Senate first.
LOL people get scared of everything.....
Perhaps if normal government procedures are in force what you said is true, however what will happen now is not normal. Rules and laws change, recomendations can become law

I didn’t agree with everything Harris said, but damn it, I had enough sense to not vote against my own interests. I thought most veterans who relied on their disability to live like I do would do the same. It’s not like it wasn’t mentioned and people who voted Trump were blindsided. They knew. Wasn’t worth it in my opinion. Especially since he’s already backtracking his promises.Fool me once….
Has the new rating for sleep apnea gone into effect yet?
Trump has stated he has nothing to do with Project 2025.
not too long ago trump said he had nothing to do with project 2025 now is being normalized as just sugestions🤔veterans should be off limits! just saying if they ever want to win again
Project 2025 is democRat propaganda used to prevent people from voting for Trump. Trump’s plan is called Agenda 47. Trump has a large veteran following, he would never hurt do anything to hurt us.
But, But Hey you guys Trump said he knows nothing about Project 2025.
When this administration cuts our benefits…. You voted for this!!
Thank you for the Great Information. You gave me more help to file for my disability compensation.
This comment section is giving me a heavy “White dudes for Harris vibe.” A lot of logical fallacies in this comment sections😂.
How would you know if all are white?
That’s what they voted for
Too many frauds are straining the system. I have an idea! If you receive any VA rating, you are not allowed to work. That will weed out all the fakes.
That's only if you're granted 100% disability. DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO BE DECLARED 100% DISABLED? *You must be taking an OPIOID, OR OPIATES Before You Can Be Declared 100%!* THE V.A. DOESN'T DISPENSE OPIOID OR OPIATE MEDICATIONS ANYMORE NO MATTER HOW MUCH THE PAIN. *Get rid of the medication then we can get rid of the vets on disability!!!* IT TOOK 25 YEARS, AND OVER 5 HEARINGS, PLUS HAVING RADIOLOGIST TAKE IMAGES OF MY SPINE, AT MY HOUSE FOR PRESENTATION AS EVIDENCE OF MY INJURIES, The V.A. Refused My Possession Of All Medical Images, And Prohibited Any To Be Presented In My Case. *THE DOCTORS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO COMMENT ABOUT THE INJURIES SUSTAINED, AND MUST AVOID ALL DIAGNOSES OF DISABILITY!* The doctors can testify to verify if a patient is disabled. But it's not allowed. *ANY CARE OUTSIDE OF THE V.A. HEALTHCARE SYSTEM CAN, AND WILL VOID ALL DISABILITY CLAIMS!* Says so in the contract. Now they're telling vets they can see whatever doctor they want without telling the consequences of doing so. THE INJURIES MUST BE DOCUMENTED IN YOUR MEDICAL RECORDS! *You idiots think all we need to do is say we need it.*
A pos that said he would be a dictator on day 1, and you think he gives a damn about the law?
This is how you detect a Trump supporter.
Nobody is going to take away your VA Benefits.......Trump has ZERO to do with that Project 2025. It's nothing but a scare tactic used to attack Trump prior to the Election.....the one He WON by a landslide. lol
So how do you know they will not cut tape?
Project 25 is coming for everything. It's up to the people if they want to fight back.
Good info
I am a Disabled Vet that lives in southern Illinois!!!! Besides Illinois corrupt politics, it is one of the better states for benefits!!! Property Taxes is a big one, most states you have to be 100% to be exempt and some income thresholds! Illinois only have to be 70% and no income threshold!!!!
Thank you for the input! The more information we can provide to veterans the better! It is interesting to see what states provide the most benefits for veterans.
2.63% might be true, but where the rubber hits the road, everything costs at least 30% more. It is insane trying to live, survive, etc. Congress trying to vote themselves a 16% raise.
Thanks for the comment. It makes you wonder...
Can we agree that we wouldn't be talking about losing VA benefit if trum had lost?
No, we can't because that would make all the of Veterans that voted for him look stupid. Just like all the Federal employees that voted for him look stupid. Funny thing is the Federal government is the largest employer of Veterans. But of well we gotta "own the libs" somehow.
Veterans are calling concerned about losing benefits, but they voted for that. YES YOU VOTED FOR THAT.
How does this possibly affect concurrent disability with retirement?
It's charming that you think President Musk and his orange VP Trump will follow laws. The Supreme Court says Trump is immune and he can do anything he wants. What's to stop House republicans from eliminating the Veterans Administration along with Social Security? Public comment?
8 minutes to get to anything
When Republicans talk about cutting government spending, THIS IS WHAT THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT. They don’t mean cut Lockheed’s contracts, they mean take money away from people who need it the most so rich people can pay less in taxes.
lmao....and you think Demokkkrats don't? lmao...your TDS is flaring up again. The fact you voted for Kamala says it all. lol
Unrealistic
A CPAP machine is like an octopus stuck to your face ,,,and it’s super sexy NOT
I know how to cut cost
Thank you for the update, appreciate it, just another question, we hear that they (the MAGAs) want to get rid of the 10% unemployability rating, want to privatize the health care by moving all vets to Obama card ( which will be put into Medicare advantage, which has failed.millions and very expensive), and finally, VA comp.is considered discretion spending as opposed to mandatory spending which makes it easier to cut. What have you heard, thank yoj...
Don't try it Maga. America is watching you.
Why did he deny knowing their identities?🤨
The left and the media are attempting to mislead you. It is crucial not to believe the unfounded claims surrounding this project. The so-called Project 2025 is a concept put forth by a think tank group that has no actual ties to Trump or his agenda. It is important to differentiate between genuine initiatives and those that lack legitimacy.
An excellent exposition of an important topic for Veterans.
your first mistake was believing trump follows any rules... 😮
To think these Republican crooks will follow the law is very ignorant.... Remember republican cowards will not defend vets against trump they will obey the orange rapist.....
The thing that worries me is Elon Musk's involvement in anything at all. He has no respect for anything except money. He and Trump are in lockstep, Trump is already making threats in an effort to help Musk.
VA DISABILITY IS NOT THE NEW WELFARE SYSTEM. YOU LAZY FKS HAVE RUINED IT.
