It is time to stand for America. Anything less will be the collapse of this country. We must stop allowing the terrorist that are feeding America hate to the masses in an attempt to overthrow our country and replace it with extremist Islamic doctrine. The enemy has breached our government thru voters that either have an agenda to actively participate in this takeover or the naive voters that have weakly caved to the groups and individuals with this destructive agenda. They have accomplished this through fraud which is funding the actions and propaganda that convinces individuals by many methods. Methods of promising people they can garner a life of living off of legitimate taxpayers or those that have already infiltrated the country and are simply surviving or becoming wealthy through American dollars that they have contributed none of. This is not a sustainable means either way. Either the money and free support will evaporate and/or the fraudsters will take it and run with it and have the means to rule us and apply these primarily radical Islamist doctrines to erase and punish any religion or thought that goes against that doctrine. The people doing so are the same people that in the recent State of the Union address that refused to stand when the President said, "Please stand if you support America over illegals...". Many of these people are the ones working to implement this agenda or too weak and frightened to stand against those that bullying though intimidation, fraudulent voting policies, blackmail, withholding of funding or a simple hatred for the President and this administration. Personality-wise, it is difficult and even impossible to like President Trump, yet you must stand for a defensive posture promoted by him and the current administration. We must have people that stand for America and you and I or we will collapse. We even have a retired General Kelly that through his hate for President Trump that has succumbed to this. We have too many people in our government to even begin naming . However, the following are a group of these destructive individuals that are easily identified through their actions. All you have to do is take the time to investigate and not be manipulated by the super-biased media, our overtaken education system, and a search engine (Google) that hides the views of one side, the Pro-America side, and feeds you with what they want you to hear and believe. You must dig to find views from all sides for us to be successful. I beg you to do so not for political party support but for support of an America saving reason. On that note, we must not let them enforce the War Powers Act as a means of blocking the protection of America and meant to block America from being a success. We must fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Again, this is for us not them. Again, this is a small list of those wishing to do us harm: Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Ro Khanna, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Sen. Kelly, Ayanna Pressley, Rep Katherine Clark, Rep. Joyce Beatty, Rep. Steny Hoyer, George Soros and son, Gregory Meeks, Rep. Al Green, and so many Mayors and Governors. Investigate for yourself. Please, let's protect our country and a future for our children. Your voice and your vote are key players in this. We must stand united in this. -- The Federal Newsgroup

Effective immediately, the VA will rate veterans based on how they function with medication and treatment, not based on how the condition actually affects them.
