House Republicans pass bill cutting veterans benefits by about $57B on Veterans Day
I didn't think he'd cut veterans benefits ON Veterans Day. Or that we'd hear from Probublica that he's gutted VA hospitals and clinics after gutting the federal workforce ON Veterans day, yet here we are. Exactly 2 years later.
Nobody hates veterans more than Trump
And veterans' jobs being eliminated... The optician from the VA Optical shop called me yesterday and informed me that as of December 1 he will no longer be employed and that he is being replaced by non-licensed/unqualified employees who will be filling those vacancies.
If Democrats can withhold or delay money to the executive branch, they should do it asap.
And then he went Golfing.
Never forget that Trump publicly called those in the military losers. This photo speaks volumes to those in the military & to those who appreciate their service in the military.
And now a repeat of what happened on the USS Abraham Lincoln is taking place on the Gerald R. Ford. They are completely destroying our Military.
"Who are you more loyal to: Israel or America?" Outside a Veterans Day protest, Status Coup’s Jon Farina caught up with combat veteran Rig Madden. Madden didn't hold back, calling on the public to "put belt to ass" and hold elected officials accountable when they stop working for the people.

This NATIVE AMERICAN WOMAN…..Is right there with ya Sir!!! I know Many,many of my people(Tribal Members)are standing up and voting Blue right down the line as well!!! We are done being treated as 2nd & 3rd class citizens on our own land! Still today treaties being broken it’s sickening! LFG!!! A’ho
Accountability and affordability are two sides of the same coin. This man is displaying the attitude that any candidate for Speaker must have in this moment. After watching this, maybe defenders of the status quo will understand why the voters are so supremely pissed. Ignore them at your peril.
Trump's cuts have already put many VA hospitals in crisis mode, delaying treatments and even urgent operations to Veterans in need. Then just yesterday, House Republicans voted for the largest cut to VA benefits in history. We will not let them leave our heroes behind.
These gop nazis have no understanding of the value of vets. These gop nazis are the losers. I will stand by the vets. Get their aid back in the new Congress.
Little Rock VA is frequently refusing transfers. Opting to note refusals in the records and making us find alternative care for our veterans. Disgusting.
House Republicans celebrated Veterans Day by passing a veterans bill. Meanwhile, they advanced provisions that could leave veterans with less money and higher costs. This is a disgrace and dishonors their service. Call your Rep. Demand they protect the benefits veterans earned. 202-224-3121
They also passed it by a devious underhanded way to keep dems away for the vote. bsky.app/profile/muel...
💯. They want to cause more hurt to the people. Doesn’t matter who as long as they shut off the funding so drumpf can have it for whatever he wants or needs it for. Vets, kids, older folks are fair game to these r’s
392-18: House passed legislation one day after Veterans Day providing full military retirement pay & benefits for veterans with combat-related disabilities. 18 Republicans voted No. The Major Richard Star Act now heads to the Senate. clerk.house.gov/evs/2026/rol...
Military members, take note of which party is working for you💙💪
Make those 18 republicans names front page news and then have the media go after them as to why they voted the way they did.
Can someone explain this contradiction? This isn’t a unique outcome, this happens all the time. 18 Rs vote against the interest of the military. Yet 65% of the military votes R. Is this just because FOX is being played on every base?
Who wrote the Bill? And why did it take so long? There should be more for the veterans since DOGE took away so much. Hope dems pay attention to this.
