Thank you Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) for bringing the importance of Veterans to the forefront over the gross mismangement of Department of Veterans Affairs funding...
I had a friend who was a Marine in Vietnam who just passed away last winter... for the last 3 years of his life he was losing his vision and in severe back pain. He had to rely on neighbors for help bc he couldn't get ANYWHERE WITH THE VA! GOD BLESS OUR SUFFERING SERVICEMEN
I’m the same way I have cataracts in both eyes two hours before my surgery they cancel it. No reason given this was over a month ago and I’m still waiting for an answer while I stumbled on the house without my vision and this is service connected to
The VA bureaucracy is the root problem. There are too many VA bureaucrats. Bureaucrats that make rules to decrease veteran's benefits while wasting money and adding more obstacles for veterans to receive benefits. Bureaucrats that have dug in their heels and told Congress they wouldn't abide by any laws Congress might pass that don't conform to the rules promulgated by the VA. The VA bureaucracy is the root problem.
We as veterans can’t get appointments, can’t get needed treatments, medications, therapy, housing plus any and all care across the board. Where is or has all this money gone, not for veterans. Disgusted
As a disabled vet the VA goes out of its way to screw you over. Things are starting to change for the good and some of my stuff is finally getting seen to but as a whole it sucks.
Trumps admin had the VA giving a positive rating in the 90’s and now look where they are-4years later-not just budgetarily but inferior care, long delays and scandal within the ranks! He’s right they can’t manage anything! Sad for our Vets to whom we owe so much! ❤️🙏🏻
This is a perfect example of either waste or fraud. The VA is taking in a lot of money but so little overall is serving the veterans. That needs to get fixed.
The VA has been failing us veterans for quite a long time. I for one would love to see the VA abolished. FYI, I'm a homeless vet since my divorce last month, and I tried calling VA services, and got nowhere. I called them as nothing more than an experiment. I never thought for a minute the VA would help me. I would love to see the VA abolished. We veterans don't need the VA.
Those guys are gone ! And fortunately, I know they’re gone , why ? Trump . When was the last time you heard a one word answer to a very complicated question?
The VA is a complete and absolute joke. The VA is just one big grift for those that work there and their families. Their budget is F’n massive and it all goes to the employees and their own families.
Good for him. Now they should talk to them about torture, human rights violations, medical abuses and the financial conflict of interest driving VA behavior.
For real The VA is over paying their employees and it’s impossible to get one fired. I watched one of them Yank a patient from his wheelchair because he didn’t get up fast enough and sure enough one month later he still had a job doing the same thing
@@vanpearsall oh my gosh that is horrible! 😢 I’m on my six month without being able to see a mental health counselor because the west palm beach VA is all jacked up. I’m guessing the VA exists because it’s cheaper than giving the service connected veterans Tricare. The VA has never worked and they need to give service connected veterans Tricare and abolish the VA IMO.
My husband a 63 yo 8 year navy vet has been waiting 3 YEARS TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM ABOUT HIS SHAKING HANDS AND HEART PROBLEMS AND HE WORKS A FULL TIME JOB AND HE BROKE BOTH BONES IN HIS LOWER LEG 2 YEARS AGO AND TRIED TO GET HELP FROM THE VA BUT WE HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR BOTH HIS SURGERIES 😢
New budget, spend spend spend then ask for more so you all can waste it. There definitely needs to be an oversight committee marking down every dollar that leaves the Reserves and taxpayers and where it is going. With Monthly reports of funds spent and funds still in the coffers. There are some very intelligent programmers out there who could do an excellent job writing code, but the problem is it's for the Government to overcharge work slowly and keep the cash flowing. There was a little town where I lived and the Mayor asked civil employee managers "How much would it cost to do 1 mile of the medium in timing the trees and a bit of landscaping". He then went to the private sector. The city workers said it would take 3 weeks and cost 150 thousand dollars. The private sector said 1 week and 45 Thousand dollars... Guess who got the job. AND oh was the union so upset and spitting fire for not hiring Government employees. The Mayor simply laughed and said you guys are pricing yourselves out of a job. Get real!
I urge the VA subcommittee to look at how many of the veterans who have committed suicide visited the VA first and compare it to veterans who haven't been through VA's dehumanizing behavior and are still alive. I bet it would be telling about VA dehumanizing depravity. And the big question, why aren't these people in prison for life, having their illegitimate gains seized? Are systems need to bring justice back to the people, veterans, civilians alike!
Thanks for the breakdown! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
So now that the DOGE has cleaned out the deparments now that theres more money now theres shortages. How so. I thought cutting off tax payers waste would have a bigger bank. Now how does this make sense
@@gravedanger1316 ummm so it's all spending and wasted right now till then. So ya illegal activity what I see is ppl pulling there nuts out swinging them calling the streets stupid weak and a bunch of nobodies. This here is disrespectful to even the common worker having there money wasted to the big gang member or cartels kids tax money being wasted funny hu
Until everyone understands - The Bureaucracy Serves the Bureaucracy not the Veterans. PERIOD !!!!!!!!!
Yep
Like all the 3 letter agencies. I honestly want to work for DOGE….but that seems inflationary in itself
This is another agency that DOGE needs to rebuild!
#2 after mass illegal inmigrant deportation
I stand with Senior Chief Van Orden.
Thank you Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) for bringing the importance of Veterans to the forefront over the gross mismangement of Department of Veterans Affairs funding...
The Senior Chief is a rock star. Truth! Semper Fi!
I. Hate how they have treated our vets
Drain the swamp

When a bureaucrat decides what a medical result is, there's a problem.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A self licking ice cream cone. Lol great analogy.
Power prayers HUMANITY ALL NATIONS CHILDREN AND VETERANS, all truth to LIGHT. THANKYOU. PRAYERS ALL TRUTHERS BRAVE ENOUGH TO SHARE TRUTH !!!❤❤❤!!!
Every Congressman has broken their sworn oath. What's it going to take for them to engage in the Constitutional Republic?

Imagine how the Jsix folks feel. They get to go home soon.

It's been like this for years and it will never change. The bigger the fail, the bigger the promotion and pay raise in government.
I bet they voted their selves a big fat pay raise 🙄

The question is, who calculated all these cost? The people in charge are the worst sort of beurocrats.
I like this guy!

4:46 all their friends (contractors) are getting paid
Federal contractors get a fraction of the money. It’s fat cat middle men who get paid. Same as most businesses.
So shut this bullshit down and give the money to hospitals that veterans actually go to
DISGUSTING
The more money they get,,,,the more our Vets suffer,,,,,,

Jesus this is insane

Who knew outsourcing to reinvent the wheel would be a massive failure?
Abolish the VA and give the Veterans tricare
💯

" I`ve spent Decades working on The Hill".......................... and there`s your sign!
I was told it would be 4 mouths out for a hernia repair with Community care! WEARS THE BEEF?
"I spent a decade on the hill", there's the problem right there.
$10B spent helping the veterans and veterans got none of it. Follow the money...

Last in the class
Elon to the rescue
The VA knows how to manage one thing. It's the greatest pill factory ever created. They would rather hand out a pill than help us veterans.
I urge the VA subcommittee to look at how many of the veterans who have committed suicide visited the VA first and compare it to veterans who haven't been through VA's dehumanizing behavior and are still alive. I bet it would be telling about VA dehumanizing depravity. And the big question, why aren't these people in prison for life, having their illegitimate gains seized?

I like this guy’s name
Need new directors , your fired

Like fema, failure to effectively manage anything.
