    Senate Veterans Affairs Chairman Johnny Isakson told me that he has had “some” conversations about the VA generally with the WH - “but not much” - and he has NOT discussed a replacement with the WH. He says he’s not pushing any names at the moment.

        These are vital leadership positions. The needs of many; like the needs of Americans; are not being met. Just saying.

        They might be vital leadership positions but no matter who's been on these positions they have all failed. Look at the reality of the entire situation.

        Okay but if one hires a professional qualified Risk Manager who understands the purpose of the VA and their benefits, would that not be positive?

        Absolutely not. Over decades we've watched the best and the brightest w various backgrounds in business, health and military. All have failed. Read the Strawman doc from the 2016 VA Commision on care. It's interesting,

        Is this where a string of old white men took on a job they neither understood nor cared about? Will study this. Thank you😀.

        Sure just leave the VA without a leader! They don't have any issues within their organization! Vets lives aren't on the line!

        When did having a leader help,our veterans receive good timely healthcare or benefits? In 40 years we've never seen that.
