Fred, this comment is in relation to something that I have heard recently about some things at the VA and I thought that you should know about it. Recently, 3 VA Psychologists had posted a shared authored article on a Right Wing Website about their opposition to VA policies about Transgender Veterans, in stark violations of the Hatch act and VA policies. Then, the Secretary of the VA was asked about this in a press conference and had blown it off and didn't condemn their actions or that the VA is looking into firing them because of these violations. WTF?? I know that it is an Election Year, but this kind of thing can not stand. The Sec of the VA needs to be, at a minimum, admonished, if not removed from office and these three VA doctors need to be removed and charged with Hatch act violations.

I know that you have connections and can look into this from other angles. Please do so.

The VA Sec was also asked about the stalled VA medical care for Transgender Veterans that has been backpedeled for two years now and wouldn't answer any further questions about this as well.

I am NOT a Transgender Veteran, but I DO know a few and am an ally.

Thank you so much for tipping me off. I had not heard about this happening. I am appalled. I will see what I can do.

And Bartiromo talking about DEI is because all three of the dead soldiers are African Americans (from GA, no less for her narrative) and this all implies that they are dead and the others are injured because they are black and it was their fault (because they are black & being from GA, too stupid to do the jobs to keep the white servicemen safe) for them getting killed. Racism at it's worst!!!

It was just so damn obvious....even if it wasn't on purpose. She is so desperate to make a political point of our soldiers she doesn't give a shit. Either way she is scum.

Every time I think Fox has hit rock bottom they prove me wrong. I no longer think there is a bottom. It’s disgusting! Keep fighting the good fight, Fred. I have donated in support of your cause and will keep doing so. You have a lot of plus at your back.

Fred, thanks for continuing to talk about this. I’m sick of all of this blatant racism and it’s really disgusting, especially when they start using the death of service members or any of us - active or vet - as a prop. This latest anti-DEI dog whistle garbage is just another example of it, and I’m glad you’re keeping it in people’s minds.

It’s been a long time since the GOP has had any credibility with vets for me since I’ve received any medical care at the VA, especially while living in Arkansas, and the amount of “performative politics” that seem to revolve around funding, approvals, etc. Though, I think the GOP lost more credibility with more people when Tuberville held that stupid promotion block.

I hope these type of stunts and the anti-DEI attacks on our fallen service members keep being brought up. We cannot allow the GOP to get away with their continued attacks on the true patriots in this country. Thanks again for your continued dedication to our democracy and the truth!

Democracy over Autocracy!

Every time that I think that Fox has hit rock bottom, its hosts start digging furiously.
