Black Veterans, Info We & They Need To Know
This special episode of The Chris & Co. Radio Show Broadcast is about the Department Of Veterans affairs. Since Uncle Chris IS a veteran, this episode will be specifically for Black American Veterans. The Trump Administration is predicting job layoffs at the VA. Is that problematic for Black Veterans? Yes, it especially problematic because it's already difficult for black...
.... veterans to obtain healthcare and disability benefits when the Department of Veterans Affairs is working on optimum efficiency (whenever that is). Trump is walking into unchartered territory sending DOGE to audit the VA and messing with the inner workings there. Veterans want their checks and they want their healthcare. Messing with those two things can give Trump sleepless nights and very bad days. While Veterans will lose in all of this, Trump and Nazi Elon Musk will point fingers and blame on another at the expense of the Inactive and Active duty Black Veteran.
The VA has already laid off 2,400 veterans and the plan is to slash 76,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs between now and the end of the fiscal year. The idiocy of this is idiotic. Now there are some jobs that are monotonous, however, the livelihoods that it helps must be looked at first. The Incredible Mr. Chris has done extensive research on the state of the Department of Veterans Affairs and it's a state all veterans (especially Black Veterans) truly need to pay vert close attention to. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is not well liked in Veteran circles because of the "whitewashing" of Black Veterans accomplishments fighting for America simply because "Amerikkka" doesn't like it. From the Buffalo soldiers to the Tuskegee Airmen. Anti-black racists like Trump and Pete Hegseth want to do away with military historical D.E.I. by any means necessary. So continuing to make Black Veteran men and women angry is the "soup di jour" of this crack and meth smoking presidential administration.
Trump and DOGE are pointing in the wrong direction when is comes to governmental cost cutting. Why the Maga maggot brigade needs to do is cut cost in pork barrel projects. Stuff that has no bearing on the United States or the people within. For instance, For this current fiscal year, this agency has been granted authority to spend $190B out of this federal account. They carried over a balance of $7B from last year, were given $182B in new appropriations, and have authority to use $0 of other budgetary resources. To date, 36.4% ($69B) of the total $190B has been obligated. It may sound like a lot of money, but in comparison to the entire government budget, it's a small drop in the bucket. Now $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt is wasteful spending and $1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities”. Who would've ever thunked that D.E.I. was available in a country like Serbia? The priority of the American government doling out gobs of money to other countries only for the U.S. Black Veterans, Black Citizens, and the public in general constantly being told that "there is no money" for this program or that social program.
Statistics have shown the number of veterans living in the United States in 2015 and 2016 with additional projections up to year 2045. There were a total of 20.39 million veterans living in the United States in 2016. In 2045, about 12 million veterans will be living in the United States. The numbers are dwindling, this is not good. From the Trump Administration, there should be ways to make recruiting for the military much easier, but now today's high school teenagers aren't thinking about joining the Armed Forces because they see how past active duty veterans get treated, they see how current active duty veterans get treated, and so they rather not join. This episode is going to be very informative. Tune In.
