- A few days ago, the VA secretary slammed our story detailing how cutting are undermining vets' care. He called ProPublica "far left." Here are, you know, actual facts.
- We are committed to telling the full story of what’s happening at VA. The cuts *and* the consequences. If you’re a vet, we want to hear from you: www.propublica.org/getinvolved/... And if you work at the VA, here is my Signal info to get in touch securely.
- In one email to Veterans Affairs HQ, doctors in PA said a hiring freeze was causing “severe and immediate impacts” and that more than 1,000 veterans would lose access to treatment for cancer, kidney disease and traumatic brain injuries. By @ericumansky.bsky.social & @vernalcoleman.bsky.social
- On Tuesday, @vernalcoleman.bsky.social and I revealed that VA officials across the country have been warning that DOGE and the admin's cuts are hurting veterans' care. Today, a half-dozen Congress members, mostly vets, demanded accountability. www.propublica.org/article/vete...
