Back in the 1970s, the Kansas City VA hospital was nearly shut down by the KCMO Dept of Health. It was infested with vermin (rats & mice,) had serious fly & roach infestations, and maggots were reported in the wounds of more than one patient.

What’s most disturbing is that the federal government is not doing anything about the entire VA system “scandal.”

I’m hoping that Trump will order the new AG to begin RICO investigations against EVERY VA administrator, in DC & the individual hospitals, where records were falsified.

I’m hoping that there’s a special place in hell reserved for those “people” who participated in the cover-ups and mistreatment of our veterans.

I find it interesting that people officially against the death penalty have no issue wanting to be able to say “no medications for you, go home and die”.
