Trump administration plans to cut 80,000 employees from Veterans Affairs, according to internal memo The Department of Veterans Affairs is planning an β€œaggressive” reorganization that includes cutting 80,000 jobs from the sprawling agency.

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong.

Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

I experienced about 85% of all emotions available to me today with at larger proportion being the very hard kind. I am exhausted. This world is exhausting.
