On Memorial Day, Biden VA record of caring for veterans raises alarm

Agency’s internal watchdog cites ‘significant deficiencies’ from glaring security holes to benefits delayed by unwarranted tests.

Early in the debt ceiling crisis, the Biden administration tried to scare veterans into believing Republicans might cut their benefits, which did not happen. But the administration’s own treatment of the nation’s warriors suffers from glaring failures ranging from lax security to benefits delayed by unwarranted tests.

The failures were laid bare in a series of reports and memos made public by the Department of Veterans Affairs’s internal watchdog, the Office of Inspector General, shortly before Memorial Day and reviewed by Just the News.

“OIG staff have identified significant deficiencies,” VA Inspector General Michael Missal wrote to Congress in a cover letter accompanying the agency’s latest semiannual oversight report.

“Our oversight efforts spotlighted in this report help illustrate how weaknesses in any of these areas of accountability can negatively affect veterans and can waste or misuse taxpayer dollars,” he also said.
