"This piece contains graphic descriptions of trauma and suicide. If you are a veteran in crisis, please call or text 988 and press 1 to reach the Veterans Crisis Line. You are not alone.

My name is Kris Goldsmith. I’m a U.S. Army veteran, a suicide attempt survivor, and someone who’s spent the last 18 years fighting for the lives of my fellow veterans. What you’re about to read isn’t an academic article—it’s a warning. I’ve seen firsthand what happens when the federal government abandons those who served. I lived it. And now, I’m watching a new administration recreate the very conditions that nearly killed me."
Veteran lays out the potential for deadly impact as the chucklefucks in the Musk/Trump regime continue to degrade the Veterans Administration.

She helped veterans in crisis.

Nazi Leon and his Terrorists eliminated her job.

An office manager at a Veterans Administration center in Wyoming, where the veteran suicide rate is 50% higher than the national average, was fired last month despite a glowing job review. #uspol #uspolitics #politics #veterans #suicide #elon #elonmusk #musk nbcnews.com/politics/doge/help

Just got off a call with a colleague and her friend who's a VA nurse for the past 18 years didn't receive a paycheck for the first time ever. I guess the agency had some excuse but holy shit. Here we go....

I was suspicious that Lutnick's "hey if you miss a social security check, who cares?" comment last week was signaling something coming. And what ever happened to the debt ceiling issue anyway? Do they think they can avoid it by just not paying our bills?

There's a reason that tyrants hate protests. We know why Vladimir Putin has essentially eliminated any ability to gather in large crowds that don't support him. Large protests empower people to feel strong, to demand change. They show that it's safe to oppose authoritarianism.

Together, we create strength. Find a way you can stand up today!
