If you reduce, you are cutting. Either you are deliberately lying, or your mind does not work well.
Question: This supposed cut is from the benefits that are in place NOW?
Or, is it from the Biden spending Bill that the vets would get if his Bill was passed?

The VA got a huge increase in the FY2023 $1.7 Trillion spending bill. The spending caps roll the discretionary budget back to $1.5 Trillion,
There isn't anything in the bill that sets budgets for the individual Dept's. The VA is expecting the big increase they got last year is going to be taken away.

VA to get $300B, its biggest budget ever, under federal spending deal
If approved, it will be the largest annual spending plan ever for the department.

As I said before, I am getting more money and benefits from VA than ever before.
The way Democrats see it, If Biden proposes a big spending raise and republicans want to limit the raise, Democrats are losing their money. Go figure

You have trouble understanding that not getting the huge increase you want is not a cut. No matter how much you screech about it.

... because the Dems don't have the 60 votes in the Senate. When they do, they will roll back the rich man's cut.
And, yes, rolling spending back to two years' ago amount is a cut.

No dipshit. Not giving out an increase isn’t a cut. No matter what you “New math” tells you.

By every measure you are dead wrong... pre covid America enjoyed the best American economy of my lifetime.... you should be asking why Biden won't make China pay up for their mistake or bio attack.....

Trump crashed the economy because he mishandled the covid crisis along with Xi.
9mm jobs, 3.5% UE, lowest minority UE rate for blacks and others, strong consumer spending.
Tell the truth, little buddy.

Shit like that happens when you are $32 trillion in debt.House Republicans voted Wednesday to cut veterans’ services significantly and limit their health care. That’s just one aspect of Barely Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s debt ceiling and budget cuts extortion package that passed 217-215, with all but four Republicans voting for it. Those four didn’t think the cuts were deep enough.
The bill would roll back spending for the 2024 fiscal year to 2022 levels, except for defense spending. Because it’s exempted, everything else would be cut by much more. That’s an estimated 22% cut, which the Veterans Administration says would mean the immediate loss of $2 billion in funding for veterans services, and 30 million fewer veteran outpatient visits. The VA would lose 81,000 jobs. That would mean fewer employees to answer veterans’ phone calls, schedule health visits, process their disability claims, and provide other critical services.

Let’s see the Magascum from usmb have to say about this.
I have a great idea that I am sure you will also support.
How about no more money for Illegals and we transfer the money the Democrats allocated to goddamn Illegals and transfer it to the VA?
Then we can take the money the Democrat filth allocated for stupid EV charging stations to the VA?
Sounds good?

Bologna... Trump cut red tape to get a vaccine and the economy was coming back until Biden won and crashed our energy system that Trump built up.... then Biden opened our border and millions of infected unvaccinated people rushed in during a global pandemic...
What kind of person does that to his people?... more Americans died from covid under Biden than under Trump... look it up fool....
You talk like the only news you get is from CNN MSNBC and Twitter....
Again why is Biden allowing China to get away with it scot free?....
Hmmmmm?
