Donald Trump Has Fired, Demoted, or Suspended over 8,000 Veterans Affairs Employees Since Taking Office
 ...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the Worldin the general election... has relieved over 8,000 Veterans Affairs employees for failing their duty since becoming the president, according to VA Secretary Robert Wilkie. "The standard is if you don’t live up to your oath if you don’t live up to the standards that our veterans expect, that you will be asked to leave," Wilkie told news hounds in a presser on Friday. "This is a transformational moment in our history." Wilkie said accountability was a signature promise from President Trump, particularly after the Veterans Affairs scandals in Phoenix in 2014 and 2015. Under Trump, he said, VA employees as high as network directors down to the lowest employees were removed for not performing their job to the proper standards. "This is, I think, one of the strongest statements that we can make: That it is a new day at VA," Wilkie said. Posted by: trailing wife 2019-11-12 |
