@SenateGOP Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct and stop your hypocrisy. Sending $40 to $80 MILLION A WEEK TO THE TALIBAN, while combat-wounded, medically retired veterans are “too expensive” to receive their VA disability compensation.

You know what else is well deserved???
Combat wounded, medically retired veterans getting their earned VA disability compensation.
End the hypocrisy, sign the #MajorRichardStarAct discharge petition and give us what you and your colleagues have been stealing for other causes. Causes like, oh I don’t know, the TALIBAN AND UKRAINE?!!
English
Well deserved.

@54KVeterans @RandPaul @SenBlumenthal Holy shit. I’ve been posting on Rand Paul’s posts about the Taliban and Ukraine and the hypocrisy that we can’t get this done.
Don’t know if that mattered but it sure is nice to hear the echo.
English
Can any of you fellow combat vets argue against @RandPaul wanting to take $$ from Taliban to pay us? Seems like a win / win. #majorstaract If we aren't getting paid because @SenBlumenthal won't budge on something like that we've been played.
English
@SenateGOP The worst GOP Congress and Senate yet. And I’m a member of the party.
Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct. You talk about the “expense” of granting combat wounded veterans their VA disability but you still fund the TALIBAN to the tune of $40 to $80 MILLION A WEEK.
English
Democrats let millions of unvetted, illegal immigrants into our country.
Then they blocked funding for ICE and Border Patrol because they don’t like secure borders.
Time to finish the job and Secure America.
English
You know what else is maddening? When politicians talk about how they support veterans but don’t back it up.
Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct and end your hypocrisy. You ship BILLIONS TO UKRAINE AND THE TALIBAN, yet caring for combat wounded veterans is “too expensive” when it comes to their earned VA disability compensation.
English
Billions in taxpayer funds potentially lost while warnings were ignored. Americans work too hard to see their money squandered through fraud and negligence. @GOPoversight demands accountability and protecting taxpayers.

BREAKING: We just released a BOMBSHELL report exposing how Governor Tim Walz and AG Keith Ellison fueled Minnesota's fraud explosion. $9 billion in Medicaid lost. $300 million in federal child nutrition funds were placed at serious risk. Read the report and key takeaways 👇🏻

Trump is so unpopular that he has caused JD Vance's chances of winning the 2028 Presidential Election to plummet, even when matched up with other Republicans.
It's the Trump effect.

🚨 #BREAKING: Marco Rubio takes the lead in the 2028 U.S. Presidential Election odds — surpassing JD Vance for the first time ever.
English
How come none of you have signed the #MajorRichardStarAct discharge petition?
We, the veterans affected by this measure, are tired of the GOP’s hypocrisy at the expense mentioned, all while you ship BILLIONS to the TALIBAN AND UKRAINE.
You will lose the veteran votes, and we will campaign against you all with the full force of a group of people who are tired of you screwing us over year after year.

It is conspiratorial to think that out of 24,000 ballot drop votes, 0 went to Pratt. I stand with my very Noble Academic Colleagues, all of whom know that the real threat to democracy are MAGA monsters. Also, the Republicans are the anti-science party; this is why the Democrats know (via science) that men too can menstruate. Good luck, USA. We are going to need it.

@DecisionDeskHQ Libtards - you MAGA people are just conspiracy theorists. There's no cheating going on Meanwhile in Commiefornia...

Both lie to the masses by letting them feel like they’re part of the ruling class. They pander for their votes, they say whatever the masses are liking at the moment, and it’s all about “you’ll be taken care of”.
It is all lies. The only person who will take care of you is yourself. Your individualism is of utmost importance and both globalism and communism completely destroys individualism.
English
What’s worse, in your opinion, communism or globalism? Please explain your answer.
English
@SenatorRicketts Yet you all, the GOP senators, continually fuck over combat injured medically retired veterans.
Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct
English
The Senate just voted to fund Border Patrol and ICE. My statement here:
This effort has always been about protecting Americans and strengthening our national security. The initial bill only included funding for Border Patrol and ICE. Several amendments that would not strengthen our national security were presented. I voted against those.
I voted for final passage of the initial legislation, which will fund our Border Patrol and ICE. These law enforcement officers work hard to keep our nation safe and they deserve our support.
English
@SenTomCotton @SenateGOP That’s great. Now to VA disability for combat-injured medically retired veterans before you lose all the veterans votes.
Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct and end your hypocrisy.
English
Democrats tried to block funding for ICE and CBP. They failed.
Last night, Senate Republicans bypassed unprecedented Democrat obstruction and superfunded our border security for years to come.
English
As a medically retired veteran due to combat-related issues, they’re losing my fucking vote. All of them.
They send us off to TWO simultaneous 20-year wars, many of us with multiple year-plus long deployments, and it’s “too expensive” to grant us VA Disability for our health issues.
Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct.
English
@SenateGOP Pass the #MajorRichardStarAct and end your hypocrisy. You send us off to TWO simultaneous wars that you love to get kickbacks from, yet it’s too expensive to allow us to receive VA disability compensation.

The Working Families Tax Cuts expanded health care access, empowered patients, and protected American innovation.
We enacted the most significant Health Savings Account expansion in decades, making up to 4 million people newly eligible to use HSAs to pay for direct primary care.
English
@SenateGOP All this while you screw over combat injured medically retired veterans and won’t secure voting.
You all must be too busy patting yourselves on the back to realize how shitty you are to your constituents.
English
@SenateGOP @SenatorCollins You are celebrating the wrong shit, @SenateGOP.
Your agenda doesn’t match your constituents wishes, you fuck over injured combat veterans as a party, and you applaud someone’s vote that went against the SAVE Act, a measure that 83% of Americans’ want.
Get your shit right.

Beginning in 1997, Senator Susan Collins hasn’t missed a single vote.
Yesterday, she cast her 10,000th.
Congratulations, @SenatorCollins. The people of Maine are well served by you.
English
@libsoftiktok @Cardinals Everybody needs to be celebrated for something these days.
It’s almost as if people were raised to believe they never did anything wrong, they were perfect in every way, and the world would bend its will to their emotions…
Huh! Weird…

@KVOA She won’t get shit from the Sheriff or the City “leadership”.
They’re worthless at best. In reality, they’re crooked leftists who want society to decline to a level where they get more power.

Congratulations to my colleague and friend, @SenatorCollins, on an extraordinary milestone: 10,000 consecutive votes cast in the Senate!
Senator Collins is a true public servant, representing Maine and our nation with integrity, dedication, and conviction.
Sen. Susan Collins@SenatorCollins
Today, I cast my 10,000th consecutive roll call vote, extending the unbroken voting streak that I have maintained throughout my entire Senate service. Mainers are known for their work ethic, and they deserve a Senator who works just as hard for them. Growing up in Aroostook County, I learned the value of hard work, perseverance, and honoring your commitments. I am proud to bring those values with me to the Senate every day. Representing the State of Maine is the honor of a lifetime, and I will continue to serve with the diligence and responsibility that Mainers deserve.

@mattvanswol @timburchett And both houses of Congress need to pass the #MajorRichardStarAct so the medically retired combat veterans who do the fighting they love to vote for can be taken care of by their EARNED VA DISABILITY.
English
@timburchett WAIT WAIT WAIT…
WE ARE STILL SENDING MONEY TO UKRAINE RIGHT NOW??????
GOOD GOD WHAT THE HELL ARE WE DOING?!!!!!!
WE ARE DROWNING IN CORRUPTION!!!!!

Democrats oppose cutting fraud to Food Stamps and support sending more money to Ukraine.
English
@mattvanswol @libsoftiktok Not to mention the @SenateGOP not wanting to give combat veterans the VA disability compensation they deserve after fighting in their TWO SIMULTANEOUS 20-year wars.
They love to vote for combat but won’t take care of those who pay the price.
English
@libsoftiktok THESE PEOPLE ABSOLUTELY HATE US.
WE HAD A CHANCE TO PASS THE SAVE ACT AND THE GOP STABBED ALL THEIR VOTERS IN THE BACK!!!!!
THESE PEOPLE ARE TRAITORS AND TOTAL TRASH!!!!
ITS LIKE THEY WANT TO LOSE THE FREAKING MIDTERMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY?!!!!
