I've been reading about government corruption and evil since well back into the 20th century, but I am still often surprised and horrified at the level of psychopathic nastiness in the whole Federal system.
Here's an example.

Malisa is having to resort to a donation campaign to get by until the VA deigns to start up Boone’s benefits again to the family he left behind. This infuriates me.

The same people that:
- Rig your county/state/federal elections
- have been looting your US Treasury of hundreds of billions of dollars a year to launder it back to themselves
- deliberately sabotage their own city/state street-level criminal justice system in order to more efficiently and profitably run local criminal networks managed by cartel gangs
- ran a fake af ‘War on Drugs’ for 50 years
- pulled off 9/11 and Oct 7
- envisioned and then implemented a mass migration/replacement initiative and dumped more than 20 million illegal immigrants on the country in less than 4 years [on top of all those already here]
have also been - SURPRISE!-
- literally looting the VA system while neglecting our veterans.
You need to understand this.
You need to understand what you’re watching when you watch Conservative Media Inc. like Fox NeoCon News.
It hasn’t mattered who’s in the White House [until Trump].
The Pentagon/DOD has been operating as one vast Forever Wars/Money Laundering operation. Out of the hundreds of billions of dollars that get sent to the ‘Department of Defense’ each year for the past couple of decades, much of it was stolen and laundered, and the greedy bastards have been stealing and laundering so much of it, they don’t even make a real PRETENSE of taking adequate care of our veterans.
And now that Malisa is calling attention to this, brace yourself for a wave of the same old bullshit you ALWAYS GET from the usual suspects when this issue surfaces.
Pentagon/DOD/Good Ol’ Boy Country Club Chamber of Commerce GOP UniParty coming out and posing for the cameras while they burble and coo about JUST HOW HARD THEY’VE BEEN WORKING FOR YOO tryin’ ta FIX this BROKEN VA system.
And that’s bullshit.
And it’s been been bullshit for decades.
The VA system is not broken. They have been trying to GASLIGHT and PROGRAM YOU to THINK the VA system is broken.
But it is not broken.
The VA system was hollowed out long ago by a vast and transnational criminal syndicate that turned it - like it turned so much of our federal government - into a corrupt af money-laundering front.
IT’S BEEN WORKING FOR DECADES EXACTLY AS THE PEOPLE AT THE TOP WANTED TO WORK.
So when The Usual Suspects come out and do this burble and coo act this time, keep the pressure on them until they CRACK.
They’re gonna tell you the VA system is ‘broken’. They’re gonna SWEAR they’ve been trying so hard to fix it. R’s and D’s will pretend they’re FIGHTING over the VA system, how to fix it.
DO. NOT. BUY. ANY. EXCUSE.
For years the local politicians in many key US cities have burbled and cooed for the press about how they’re supposedly tryin’ ta fix their cities broken criminal justice system. Like, for decades and stuff. It’s an act. It’s not real. They’re not trying to fix shit. They’re running a criminal network affiliate disguised as responsible local government.
Well it’s the same thing at the VA.
The same Good Ol’ Boy Country Club Chamber of Commerce UniParty GOP entrenched in the hollowed-out ‘defense industry’ at the Pentagon/DOD, who ran the Forever Wars under the Bushes and Obama and during the first Trump term, making their bank off of Iraq, Afghanistan and the ‘fight against ISIS’, guess what part of their job has always been?
To come out and bullshit and gaslight you while the VA looting and money laundering continues and the corrupt system just keeps a hum-hum-humming along.
A lot of people don’t realize the vast sea change Trump already brought to the US military under Hegseth. They only see around 20%. Hegseth has the unbelievable burden of turning a hollowed-out military sandbagged for decades into being an ineffective force and money laundering front into a lean mean fighting machine and he’s got a very short amount of time to do it in.
But while he’s whipping the active military into some kind of semblance of an effective field force, the issue of what’s being done to those veterans who’ve already served cannot be ignored.
And I don’t believe Trump and Hegseth have been ignoring this. Under the funding system they were faced with in February when the hard work began, it had been constructed over decades by vile people to be byzantine and complicated, so the fraud could hide behind the complexity.
You may have heard that Hegseth just scrapped the Pentagon procurement system, thereby robbing a lot of these career DOD/Pentagon bureaucrats of their cushy lobbyist deals. The money laundering and graft inside our military, to redirect the funds to where they aren’t being siphoned off, and send the money where it needs to go is going to take some time.
This is where the tariff revenues can help, as well as the 17 trillion in new American investment that Trump already scored will help, but yeah, it’s gonna take some time for this to impact the VA.
Until that happens, raising the exposure of just how insane, unfair and corrupt the current VA system is - and has been for decades now - needs to be done.
Force current VA officials to come out and explain why what is happing to Malisa and her children is happening. Make them try to defend it, if they can.
