I have relatives that served at Camp Lejeune, worse yet, I have relatives that were children drinking water at Camp Lejeune. They have been OK, but many others were poisoned by that water. For decades Marines complained about the water quality at Camp Lejeune, finally Carter authorized testing of the water. It turns out that it had hundreds of times the dangerous chemicals as allowed. Reagan suppressed that report for years, but finally cleaned up the water... But thousands had their health destroyed.
They were told for decades after that they could not even sue. Finally the bipartisan Camp Lejeune Justice Act was signed into law by President Biden in 2022. When trump came back to office, he started blocking payments to these injured veterans, again. Make no mistake, the payments are already authorized. In fact, trump is trying to grab that money for himself.
Now he says he will pay the veterans(and their dependents) the money the USA owes them, but only if the party of trump wins.
trump: So if we don't win, there's no money. If we do win, you're getting it, and it's going to be finally over with that nightmare that's been going on for so many years.
