Last February, an article posted as satire managed to go viral. The article claimed that the potato that resides in the Oval Office was going to defund the department of Veteran’s Affairs. As has been the case lately, that satire has become reality.
VA hospitals are being closed. My first question is “The VA is fully funded in Joe’s next budget. Where is all of that money going, if hospitals are closing?”
It turns out that the funds are not being used for veteran care, they are being used for something else.
That’s right- the personnel are reportedly being used to establish treatment and COVID vaccine centers for illegal immigrants.
There is a joke that says the difference between satire and reality is about 12 months. That is looking more and more accurate as time goes on. This year’s satire will be next year’s reality.
