Navy Commander Sounds Alarm on Trump Attack on Vets

Two tragedies—one at a Michigan church and another on the North Carolina waterfront—are a warning light flashing red: America has a veteran mental health emergency. In this episode, Bobby Jones from  @ValorMediaNetwork  connects how these shootings by former service members reflect a broader crisis—and how cuts, hiring freezes, and policy whiplash have hollowed out VA mental health care. This is about timely access to clinicians, real care coordination, and leadership that prioritizes outcomes over photo ops. We outline the fixes that work—surge staffing, same-day crisis access, and accountable partnerships—so those who wore the uniform aren’t left to struggle alone.
