The VA jobs that were cut the minute Biden took office in fact I have a Friend of mine that was working in Buffalo at the VA Who was hired under Trump with that Expansion and then he and a bunch of Other people Were were let go I mean literally within The first two months of uh of the Biden Administration So you know answer for that why don't You according to the official White House transcript Jean-Pierre had meant To say 134 000 instead of 134 billion This error is not only significant Discrepancy in the amount of money Involved But it also highlights the incompetence Of the White House Press Secretary and The administration as a whole moreover Jean-pierre's claim that the president's Commitment to cutting wasteful spending Has never been in doubt has also come Under scrutiny the Department of Veterans Affairs released a press Release on April 21st warning about cuts To benefits without you know which Contradicts jean-pierre's claim CBS 8 conducted a fact check on Jean-pierre's claim that Republicans Want to cut VA benefits stating that the Text of the bill as passed by the uh the House does not specifically cut the Budget of the Department of Veterans
Affair Uh but it does mandate broad federal Spending cuts and does not exempt the VA From those cuts this means that while The bill does not directly cut the va's Budget it could indirectly lead to cuts The White House released a fact sheet Titled Maga House Republicans default on America Act Would have devastating impacts Across America which claimed that the bill Would have a negative impact on the Country however House Majority Leader Steve scalise republican from Louisiana Made it clear that he will not bring a Bill to the floor or of the house even If President Biden wants it that cuts Veterans benefits take a look Take all of that now to House Majority Leader Steve scalise of Louisiana good Morning Congressman you heard what Rick Was reporting and the bill Republicans Passed on the debt limit is basically Dead on Arrival in the Senate you also Heard what Senator Coons had to say he Compared it to hostage negotiations What's your reaction Well Martha good morning good to be with You I think most Americans recognize That as we're addressing the debt limit We also have to address the problem that Got us here look President Biden maxed Out America's Credit Card by spending Trillions of dollars over the last two
Years what Republicans said is we're Willing to work with the president on Addressing that but let's also address The spending that got us here too and What we put in the bill are very basic Common Sense things like let's have some Work requirements for able-bodied people Who want to get welfare benefits Shouldn't they at least be looking for Work when everybody is looking for Workers you've got millions of people Being paid not to work we talk about Protecting veterans we've heard this lie Over and over again the speaker himself Has said we're protecting veterans Mike Boss the chairman of the Veterans Affairs committee is a veteran himself The only person talking about cutting Veterans benefits is Joe Biden Yeah and they're just trying to you know Strengthen a weak voter Base by Targeting veterans and claiming that you Know Republicans are out to get veterans Which isn't true I mean I'm a vet and I Go through the VA system and if I Thought that there was a problem here I'd be addressing it myself Um so far all I see is rhetoric I mean I Don't honestly don't believe at this Point in time I do not believe that the Republicans would allow anything to Happen to the VA they've really been a Defender of the VA Um it's been the other way around for
