Description: In this compelling episode of "American Potential," Jeff Crank engages with Jason Beardsley, Senior Coalition Advisor for Concerned Veterans for America, to discuss the systemic issues plaguing the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Beardsley reveals how the VA's misallocation of resources and bureaucratic inefficiencies have led to veterans being sidelined, with care and attention being diverted to non-citizens. Through a historical lens, they trace the VA's origins and its intended mission, contrasting it with the agency's current practices that stray far from its core purpose of serving America's veterans.   Beardsley advocates for a paradigm shift towards greater transparency, accountability, and a refocusing on veterans' needs. Highlighting the VA's involvement in providing services to illegal immigrants, he calls for legislative and cultural changes within the VA to ensure that veterans receive the priority and care they deserve. The episode delves into the complexities of government bureaucracy and the challenges of implementing effective oversight and reform.   Listeners will be taken through a thought-provoking discussion on the importance of restoring the VA's focus back to its founding principles. Beardsley's insights offer a critical examination of the administrative state's impact on veteran care and propose actionable solutions to reclaim and enhance the services intended for those who have bravely served the nation. This episode is an urgent call to action for reform, aiming to ignite a conversation on the necessity of prioritizing veteran welfare above bureaucratic convenience.   Click here to learn more: https://cv4a.actcentr.com/ContactOfficials/veteran-health-care-is-being-stolen    Check out American Potential here: https://americanpotential.com   Check out our Spanish episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8wSZydeKZ6uOuFlT_1QQ53L7l6AmC83c   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmericanPotentialPodcast     Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/americanpotentialpodcast/   X: https://twitter.com/AMPotentialPod
