Veteran's in the news!

     Greetings. I know I haven't been posting like I should be recently but with school and graduation right around the corner, I haven't had much time to blogging and seeing what's been going on in the veterans world! Covid has taken a turn for the better which is something that I never thought I would say. President Biden has been getting vaccines out like no tomorrow. Every adult after April 19th will have access to a vaccine that will keep you safe from the deadly coronavirus. Numbers in cases have gone down dramatically as well. We were averaging more than three thousand cases a day but that has dropped significantly. Now you may ask, what does Covid-19 has to do with Veterans. I'll tell you why. The more lives and attention Covid takes, the less attention and support our veterans get from our country. Our veterans are in desperate need right now and the longer Covid continues, the longer Veterans will suffer.

    More than 50% of our veterans are over the age of 60, which means they are at risk, especially for Covid-19. Not only that, many veterans are disabled and can't work for themselves anymore to support their own livelihood, so the country must support them through welfare and financial aid. These funds have begun to cut short in volume, due to the immense of money being spent by our country to either help other countries, get vaccines out, or just giving it to the rich and just letting their massive amounts of money grow even more. With president Biden though, I feel that veterans have a much brighter future down the road once our country gets back on its feet. I see a summer ahead for us and please, if you want to reach out to me or ask me a question, don't hesitate. I will always be here for you and will always put my passion for veterans first.

President Trump

       As most of you may know, these past two weeks have been some of the most politically violent times in American history. It all starts though with our very own president. Donald Trump has now been president for a full term and has made a lot of noise towards the end of his legacy. President Trump has some of the most loyal followers as well so the whole situation doesn't really make any sense. Why would people go out of their way to support a man who couldn't care less about them? This question was raised highly after a group of white nationalists and republicans stormed the United States Capital building. In most countries, this act would end in a slaughter of civilians and would possibly cause a civil war between a country. What was funny about this was this was not the fact they were granted permission to overthrow the capital, the leader of our country was the root cause behind it. For months this raid had been planned by Trump supporters all over the country. Now you

My New Idea!

Every family in the U.S either has a relative or has had someone close to them serve our country. Giving up the ultimate sacrifice to serve and protect our country is something I will always be grateful for and I will continue to be in their debt until I die. My opinion isn't really shared countrywide and this has become a big problem in today's world. This is where my new idea comes into play... haha. After doing a solid week of research on Veteran Affairs and the current status of it. I have read several honest blog posts, a couple different websites and they say the same thing. Veterans are being treated like second class citizens. The treatment of veterans in the U.S has been very suspect for quite some time now. It has only been 40 years since the American Psychiatric Association came out with PTSD and how it can affect heros returning from war in many different ways. Instead of them being a major priority for our government, we have kind of pushed them to the side and jus
