Pelosi: Trump and GOP ‘Turn Their Backs on the Men and Women Who Have Bravely Donned the Uniform’

(CNSNews.com) - House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi responded to President Donald Trump [1]’s signing of a law to reform the Veterans Administration and offer veterans more choice in health-care by saying that the “president and GOP Congress continue to turn their backs on the men and women who have bravely donned the uniform, pushing deep cuts to Medicaid, gutting SNAP [food stamps] and undermining vital protections for service members and families against Wall Street’s greed and abuse.”

The VA MISSION Act, which Trump signed today, will expand the ability of veterans to seek health-care outside government-run VA facilities. It will also create a commission that will examine which VA facilities should be closed and where new ones should be built.

The bigger question is why has Congress turned into a assisted living facility for the infirm and mentally incompetent.

Easy answer: seniority is the coin of the realm in DC. For as much as we gripe about the likes of Pelosi and Feinstein, senior citizens on the other side like Grassley and Hatch need to go, too.

At least Orrin Hatch decided to retire. The history of the Legislative Branch is replete with examples of those on both sides of the aisle who stayed far too long, and profited oh so greatly, from "public service". Feel free to make your own list, but off the top of my head are: Teddy Kennedy, Strom Thurmond, John Dingell (whose wife now controls that seat), Robert Byrd, Thad Cochrane, etc.

I'm sure that message will resonate with the American people.

Pelosi is truly addled - and needs to be re-elected as Minority Leader ASAP.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
