VA doctors allowed to deny service to Democrats, LGBTQ, unmarried veterans

According to a jaw-dropping report from The Guardian (source), Trump’s Department of Veterans Affairs just gave doctors the green light to refuse medical care to veterans—if they’re Democrats or unmarried.

Let that sink in.

You serve your country.

You take an oath.

You march into war, maybe lose your hearing, your limbs, your sanity—and when you come home, Trump’s VA tells you, “Sorry, you’re not married. And you didn’t vote for the right guy. No help for you.”

What the hell kind of country does that?

This isn’t a bad policy.

This is a moral collapse.

It’s straight-up authoritarian.

It spits in the face of the Constitution.

It’s the kind of cruelty we read about in history books when learning how democracy dies.

In The Guardian article, they outline how this move is being framed under “religious liberty” protections.

Don’t fall for that. That’s just a smoke screen.

No real religion teaches you to turn your back on a broken body.

This isn’t about religion.

It’s about power.

It’s about punishing those who disagree politically.

It’s about using the medical system as a weapon against Americans who didn’t kneel to a wannabe dictator.

And let’s call it what it is! Fascism in a lab coat.

A single veteran?

A gay veteran?

A widow?

A lifelong Democrat who served this country with honor?

They now risk being turned away at the VA door because Trump’s people think they’re not worthy.

It is monstrous.

It is vile.

And it should enrage every single person who believes in fairness, service, and the basic promise that sacrifice deserves care—no matter your political affiliation or relationship status.

We are not going to let this stand.

Veterans gave everything for this country.

They did not do it for Trump.

They did it for all of us.

And if this government won’t honor their service, then it’s our duty to fight for them.
