There was already a presumptive list for burn pit exposure that could have simply been expanded, without giving a huge pile of money to a bunch of bureaucrats to waste on themselves.

It’s what Republicans do. They are really good at it.

Video of them fist bumping after denying veterans rights showed who they really are.

Because they have a conscience, and against reports to the contrary, chose not to let vets go without medical care?

Thank heavens most of our elected representatives aren't right-wing extremists who would make Herbert Hoover blush.

Worried Americans are too stupid and apathetic to figure out or care why they objected to it

And they're right

Behind every thing we hate about Congressional politics are the constituents who make it so

Anyone using veterans to push for the bloat at the VA is disgusting and should be ashamed.

It's what they do. And get ready. They aren't done yet.

Toomey's and Cruz's objections didn't come across as credible, even when unfiltered and directly from them.
BTW, the fist bump on the Senate floor was really dumb and awful optics. The entire episode turned into an unnecessary shite show in advance of the midterms.

I think it was always close to passing. Probably not one of those things you want to hold up for a long time. Looks bad for everyone.
