The Senate passed a bill that expands health care benefits for millions of veterans exposed to toxic burn pits in Iraq and Afghanistan. The passage comes after days of protests from former service members and comedian Jon Stewart that pressured Republicans to lift their blockade of the $280 billion package.

Yeah what about veterans exposed to police terrorism police brutality police violence police scandals police fraud white supremacy and then financial integration nightmares from white supremacist institutions
The GOP only did it because they were shamed into doing it! Much respect and thanks to Jon Stewart for going the extra mile to help get this legislation passed.🇺🇸
Good, pressure works.
Alles sehr schön. Aber zuerst zusammen die Nummern 10 und 1. Eine warmthhh.Online Brünette und eine anderef Blondine. Es wäre unfair, wenn ich 4 wählen würde
Hey Pat Toomey, it looks like that pseudo celeb just bent you over his knee and gave you a nice spanking.

so that means all of us who served and worked around burn pits…..for the last 150 years or so…suddenly get something? or just those who served in the past 10 years or so ….like the rest of the military benefits for those who are suddenly more delicate than the millions before them??? burn pits……seriously people.
they deserve better from the government

apparently the GOP does have a tiny bit of shame left in them.
"What" is my last name & 50% of my DNA is unknown. (*
If i won't know my blood by choice- its like each time i open my mouth I disappear – can't exist. I am a social security # and pronoun that's not in my blood DNA – so like the Devil, i cant exist when i speak.
Its for this reason that i am always alone (but never lonely). I cant know thyself so why do i care to know (about) anyone else?
Instinct determines im sexually attracted to ladies, but how can i express emotion rationally, if i never knew thyself (my bloodline)? Technically, it wouldn't even be fair if she heard me say "i like you." As it were , betrayal begins with trust. Now you understand how i am restricted from communicating with others.
Furthermore, I will certainly betray anyone i speak to by virtue of logic. Just think about the fact that everytime i provided a signature as my own, since 47 years ago, has been a lie.
Okay, thats enough. I'm "The. "

No thanks to Republican clowns.
The veterans will now be paying for the 400 billion in increased inflation just like the rest of us. Its like congress never took 1st grade math! lol
thank you john stewart
Yet they failed so many
Thank you to John and the veterans for helping push the republicans to do the right thing!
That's great news for our veterans. Congress did something actually worthwhile. More than serving themselves. I'm impressed!
