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.
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...
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.
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
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! ❤️🙏🏻
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.
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?
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.
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 😢
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.
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 !!!!!!!!!
This is another agency that DOGE needs to rebuild!
The Senior Chief is a rock star. Truth! Semper Fi!
Power prayers HUMANITY ALL NATIONS CHILDREN AND VETERANS, all truth to LIGHT. THANKYOU. PRAYERS ALL TRUTHERS BRAVE ENOUGH TO SHARE TRUTH !!!❤❤❤!!!
You’re all FIRED! And being investigated!
A self licking ice cream cone. Lol great analogy.
I stand with Senior Chief Van Orden.

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. Hate how they have treated our vets

The more money they get,,,,the more our Vets suffer,,,,,,

So shut this bullshit down and give the money to hospitals that veterans actually go to
Every Congressman has broken their sworn oath. What's it going to take for them to engage in the Constitutional Republic?
United citizens
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.

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.

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