The US government gave disability benefits to veterans after most of them were already dead from the injury that the military caused. The 1940s-1960s was a peak for radiation exposure to veterans, took until 1996 for them to acknowledge it

My fellow Americans:
If you are not receiving financial benefits from the government, you may not be aware that those funds drop around the first of every month. It is not a coincidence that Muskrat wasn't allowed to enter the treasury and fuck around until after February's benefits had been paid out.
If March 1st comes and the government does not disperse military, retirement, social security and disability funds, there will be riots in the streets. People will die. Almost 1/4 of Americans directly receive benefits, and those that do are literally the most vulnerable members of our society, like the elderly, the disabled and the underage. Millions of people's lives will be unceremoniously upended by two unscrupulous, greedy little men.
I hope to hell my paycheck is there on February 28th, because if it isn't I'll be on a bus to DC by the morning to join the riots.
I don't usually share these, but this a friend of mine, a fellow veteran. She and her family have been through a lot and are in a difficult spot. Every little bit helps. The whole story is in the link.
If you can spare a bit she'd be very grateful. If not, if you could pass this on, that would be amazing too.
Thank you everyone!

That's right, Trump voters... One of the very first things they want to do come January is kick veterans off their benefits. The new Trump Administration says our military veterans have it too good. They need to suffer...
ER Nurse, a Woman with Amputated Leg wants to Serve in Our United States Militaries, but Corporate Lazy Accountants Alexander Viera and Josephine Fify Viera, and Lawyer Marcelo Viera of Tallahassee, Florida who are Tall People and Not Disabled, Can't, while they are Forcing Short Diabetics, Schizophrenics, Memory Loss Patients, and Other Disabled Americans to Get Killed In Our Military?
Ex-president reportedly told Gen Mark Milley in 2019 that severely wounded soldier should be banned from public appearances
Donald Trump still hates American veterans.
In an interview with the Atlantic, Mark Milley, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, said Trump had been irritated after Luis Avila – who lost a leg and suffered brain damage after an IED attack in Afghanistan – sang at Milley’s 2019 welcome ceremony. “Why do you bring people like that here? No one wants to see that, the wounded,” Milley said Trump told him after the ceremony. Milley told the Atlantic that Trump said Avila should never appear in public again.
Trump is a hideous-looking narcissistic draft dodger. HE is somebody who should never appear in public again.
On Sunday, Buttigieg – who was a lieutenant in the US navy reserve and served a tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2014 – told CNN that Trump’s alleged order was “just the latest in a pattern of outrageous attacks [by Trump] on people who keep this country safe”. Military members wounded in combat, Buttigieg said, “deserve respect and a hell of a lot more than that from every American, and definitely from every American president”.
Trump the draft dodger demanded Soviet-style military parades and filled the Oval Office with battle flags. It was a high profile variation of stolen valor.
Trump previously called Americans who died in action "losers" and "suckers".

Donald "Bone Spur" Trump also took a pass on a visit to a US military cemetery in France because it was raining and he didn't want to get his bizarre hair wet.
