Lying email from my Democrat Congressman on VA facility wait times
email from Congressman ^ | July 8, 2026 | self

Posted on 07/08/2026 2:07:07 PM PDT by lasereye

I am on the email list of my Democrat Congressman Vindman. I got an email today which begins:

It now takes 100 days to get a primary care appointment at the Fredericksburg Veteran Affairs (VA) Health Care Center. That is unacceptable.

I regularly hear from veterans across my district who are struggling to get the care they need because of staffing shortages and unacceptable delays at this care center.

Our veterans served our nation with honor. They deserve a VA health care system that is fully staffed, responsive, transparent, and accountable — and they should never have to wait 100 days to receive the care they have earned.

I want to hear from you: have you or a veteran in your life experienced delays or challenges getting care through the VA? Take my survey here.

So I asked Copilot and Genesis AI's if that was true.

Copilot:

I couldn't find any authoritative source showing that the Fredericksburg VA Health Care Center currently has a 100‑day wait for primary care appointments. The VA publishes appointment access data and specifically directs veterans to its Access to Care site for facility wait times.

More broadly, the VA has reported reductions in average primary care wait times in recent years, although wait times can vary significantly by facility and provider availability.

Genesis:

Genesis first said that there have been reports of 100 day waits. But the source turned out to be Vindman's X account!

It is now a 100 DAY wait to get a primary health care appointment at the Fredericksburg VA Health Care Center.

That is completely unacceptable. Our veterans served this country with honor, and they deserve a VA that is fully staffed, transparent, and accountable.

I’m leading…— Congressman Eugene Vindman (@RepVindman) July 1, 2026

So I asked Genesis whether there were any specific reports from veterans about a 100 day wait time. This was the answer:

The 100-day wait time statistic for the Fredericksburg VA Health Care Center has been heavily cited by politicians, but there are no publicly published, specific personal accounts from an individual veteran documenting a 100-day primary care wait at this location.

So, Vindman's claim that "It now takes 100 days to get a primary care appointment at the Fredericksburg Veteran Affairs (VA) Health Care Center" is a disgusting fabrication.

He’s just trying to create an election year narrative. His X post ends with “I’m leading…”

You clearly prioritize political identity and affiliation above the welfare of people, soldiers’ obligations and their duties.

I mentioned that I am a Democrat up front. What do you expect?

(Did you also detect just a hint of sarcasm in my original post?)

At least you admit what the Obama and Biden regimes really were, and your still a stupid Democrat.

I have no idea. According to post #17 if they can’t get you in by 30 days they have to refer you to a private doctor.

To: lasereye; All

All should know that this is the lying scum twin brother of Alexander Vindmann— the twin brother is Evgeny Vindmann (Ukrainian, brought as children with their father from Soviet Ukraine, under Jimmah Cahtah. After a year’s holdover in Italy the boy’s mother was left behind in Ukraine Soviet Socialist Republic, and the twins and and their older non twin brother and dad made it into “Little Odessa” section of NYC. Imho- sleepers with mom held as hostage).

Alex was offered, get this Minister of Defense of Ukraine- and never reported it to Army commanders. Evgenie is a lawyer and slick-o member of the Nat Security Council under Obama, into Trump and is the creator of the FAKE AS HELL “whistleblower” named ERIC CIARAMELLA CIA emplant willing to fake the phone convo Trump had with Zelensky and Schiff faked to Congress— the basis of the idiot “impeachment” of Trump.

So it is no surprise this a@@hole would lie about just about anything. He is a fraud, a liar and like his twin brother they were in it for the grift.

Should note that Alex moved to FL, did NOT get a pardon from Biden or the AutoPen, and thinks he can become a Senator from FL running against the very bright Ashley Moody, former AG of FL under DeSantis. Alex the fat f should give it up— “that’s Lt. Colonel to you, Congressman”. What prick, a pair of them!

My Congressman, Yevgeny Semyonovich Vindman, & his equally odious brother Alexander, deserve to spend the rest of their days at Leavenworth.
