BREAKING: SECVA Doug Collins has CANCELLED his effort to STRIP Veterans of their benefits thanks to MASSIVE backlash from We the People. WELL DONE and STAY LOUD!
Tweet from Doug Collins: Effective immediately, VA is halting enforcement of the interim final rule, Evaluative Rating: Impact of Medication.

VA issued the rule to clarify existing policy and protect Veterans’ benefits in the wake of an ongoing court action. But many interpreted the rule as something that could result in adverse consequences.

While VA does not agree with the way this rule has been characterized, the department always takes Veterans’ concerns seriously. To alleviate these concerns, VA will continue to collect public comments regarding the rule, but it will not be enforced at any time in the future.

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre. She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s. Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else. If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?

tweet from @cliftonhowze on twitter

Last night at the #DataCenters meeting in Claremore, Darren Blanchard, who has attended most of these meetings around NE Oklahoma & has some pretty impressive FOIA/ORA skills, was arrested after going over his 3 min. allotted speaking time. First arrest I've seen at one of these.

I was at a comedy event in LA, super young and nervous. I left the ballroom and when I came back I froze in front of the doors, too anxious to open them. Robin Williams walked up opened both doors and bowed me into the room with the sweetest smile of understanding.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
