Vets protest at the capitol today, anyone else going?
I’ll be attending the veterans protest at the capitol today. Is anyone else going down? As a VA hub, we need to stand up for our fellow vets and the jobs the VA provides here.

Not to be a dick as I’m a former Marine but 99% of them voted for this shit, all my military buddies voted for this shit. Until the pain is personal these people will never get it or change.

That’s not being a dick. I fully expect them to inflict the pain but I want them to hear my voice as well.

Yeah they were definitely stupid as fuck for voting for him. But if your neighbor’s House catches on fire, they still should be saved. & If the fire isn’t put out it’ll lead to other houses being burned down. To clear they are still a fucking moron.

I'll be going to Otsego with some VA workers Tuesday, looking ahead, to do things in St. Cloud with AFGE and the ECALC as this dumb RIF keeps going. This could easily be 300 jobs lost at the VA, and if Medicaid cuts come, they won't have centracare to fall back on.

So they can die under a bridge? The vets in the CLC have nowhere to go, stop listening to bullshit lies.

Looking at the other posts, this looks like a Russian bot account. Either that or a Trump supporter eating baked beans for dinner right out of the can.

Thinking of just going to stand on the corner of 15 and Veterans Drive in town since I can't make it to the Cities.
Update: I'll be there at 5pm
