A Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) whistleblower said she is living in her own real-life Twilight Zone.
Jamie Fox is currently a social worker at the San Francisco VA Medical Center (SFVAMC). Since late October, she’s been visited by federal agents who told her that the memes she had shared on Twitter months ago suddenly made her dangerous.
Fox was involuntarily committed to a psych ward hours after these agents visited her home. Even though she has since been released, her Second Amendment rights have been terminated, and now she is on leave from work and being investigated.
“I feel violated,” Fox said of the entire affair. “[The VA] know[s] my vulnerabilities, and they use them against me.”
Background
Fox served in the Navy from 1988–1993; as such, she receives healthcare at the SFVAMC, where she currently works.
Fox said she first became a VA whistleblower in 2008 when she insisted on testifying on behalf of a co-worker she thought was being harassed because of sexual orientation.
She insisted on moving forward even after being told by multiple managers to let it go.
Fox said she worked on the benefits side of the VA at the time; she left in lieu of termination and had to wait two years before getting a job at the SFVAMC.
The legal proceedings, according to Fox, did not end until 2013.

This has to stop. President Trump?
Blackmail and intimidation by government.
Sounds normal from the players involved.
Sounds like a self-inflicted wound.
Maybe I am wrong here, but she sound terribly, implausibly, politically correct.
Trying out the playbook to be used once they get the cojones to start rounding people up to get their firearms...all of them.
Getting more like the Soviet Union every day.
The only positive is that she is collecting her paycheck and continues to have benefits. They will pay her forever just to keep her away.
One whistle blower got transferred to Hawaii where she could not survive on low VA wages.
Soviet tactics.................
Some key phrases
Sexual orientation
Left in lieu of termination
Memes on twitter
Used my vulnerabilities against me
Not saying this isn’t a case of out of control government. But there maybe more then what we are seeing.
Just like in the soviet union. Land of the free?
This reads like it’s straight from the pages of The Franklin Coverup.
You don’t pull on
Supermans Cape,,,
At some point federal agents are going to start reaping what they’ve sown, and it ain’t gonna be pretty.
Pure Karl Marx Soviet Democrat stuff. Shame on these bastards.
USSA / Stasi bump for later....
What a nightmare. This is the same Veteran’s Hospital that I go to. It’s in San Francisco, down Clement St. About 10 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge.
None of this treatment is justified, and most of it is illegal. Nonetheless, she was warned to stop pushing back against the bureaucracy. Warned many times.
When you begin to expose the Government’s dirty deeds online via creative ‘Memes’ and comic strips, they are going come back at you. Any Governmental structure can become a huge, unfeeling, crushing monster when you threaten it’s status.
I recall the year I was in the Navy, and I realized that as I am willingly serving my country, I am also willingly giving up certain civil rights as an American for the time of my enlistment. That’s what the term GI comes from; while serving you are a Government Issue. You are a tool of the Government.They have much authority over what does or does not happen to you. Don’t waste too much time or energy fighting against that basic fact.
So perhaps the same attitude of forfeiting one’s civil rights will continue if you chose to work for the government while a civilian. I hope she gets free of this mess, and stays away from trying to confront them in that manner.
Whistleblowers, no matter how righteous, seldom prosper.
It is evil, but true.
