The VA is down 600 doctors and about 1,900 nurses so far this year, the first time the agency has seen net losses in years.
At several facilities, more than a third of the positions for doctors are unfilled.

For all the talk about a black head coach making it to the #NationalChampionship, what needs to be discussed is that only 16 of 134 FBS coaches are black. #collegefootballplayoff #letthatsizzleinyourspirit

#Niners fired Special Teams Coordinator, but the DC still has his job. Mind you, previous DC did a far better job and was fired after the Super Bowl, which IMHO he was the scapegoat for some of #KyleShanahan shortcomings in the big game. #MakeItMakeSense

Say what you want about #JerodMayo, but he couldn’t turn water into wine with that roster and the mess #BillBelichick the GM left behind. Supposedly, #RobertKraft wanted this season to be Bill’s last season before turning the reins over to Jerod. This is #MikeVrabel job to lose.

Karma can be quite comedic. #SaquonBarkley surpassed 2,000 yards on Sunday, and as fate would have it, he could potentially break the record against his old team on Sunday! #letthatsizzleinyourspirit

The felon isn’t in office yet & voters that voted R are already having buyer’s remorse! We must keep working to elect Ds up & down ballot, reaching voters where they are, helping voters understand that the felon/GOP are NOT for working class people. The felon/GOP will hurt them to help themselves!

Seems like many of the posts I’ve seen with dog jokes about #MichaelVick since being announced as the new HC at #NorfolkState came from people that also helped put a convicted felon back in the White House. #letthatsizzleinyourspirit
