Is a Clinton Supporter

…going to lease the Progressive-Democratic Party the way the Clintons did for the 2016 elections?

At a gathering of Progressive-Democrat NeverTrumpers, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D, CA) and Billionaire George Soros were the headliners.  And this:

The four-day event in Carlsbad, titled “Beyond #Resistance: Reclaiming our Progressive Future,” asked that guests refrain from contacting the media or posting to social media, the agenda shows.

Soros has already transferred most of his $18 billion to his anti-Trump activist organization.  The question arises in my pea brain: what are Soros and Pelosi planning in this behind-the-scenes gala?

Of course, there’s nothing inherently wrong with secretive strategy planning meetings, but in light of current scandals and misbehaviors, perhaps more openness might be more productive.

Most likely, though, this is just another off-the-wall conspiracy theory….

The VA Still Fails

The Veterans Administration is still creating waitlists and secret waitlists, even after all this time of reporting on and calling the VA out for its dishonesty and its disservice to our veterans.  Now a Colorado VA facility is—still—doing secret waitlists.

Investigators with the VA Office of Inspector General confirmed whistleblower and former VA employee Brian Smother’s claim that staff kept unauthorized lists instead of using the department’s official wait list system.

That made it impossible to know if veterans who needed referrals for group therapy and other mental health care were getting timely assistance, according to the report. The internal investigation also criticized record-keeping in PTSD cases at the VA’s facility in Colorado Springs.

Senator Cory Gardener (R, CO):

It [the secret waitlists] highlights even more VA mismanagement and lack of accountability in Colorado. This cannot happen again, and it’s time for the VA to finally wake up and ensure our men and women are getting the best care possible.

No.  The VA is not going to clean itself up.  Outside agencies cannot clean this sewage pit.  The VA must be disbanded and its budget and nominal future budgets passed to our veterans as vouchers so they can get the medical help they deserve—and in too many cases, desperately need—from the doctors of their choice and the medical facilities of their choice.

Veteranos Administratio delende est.
