| [ET vias Conservative Daily] ’This is what you have when vindictive leftists get in charge of major parts of the government’: Rep. Gohmert Just when the wife of one incarcerated Jan. 6 prisoner believed things couldn’t get worse, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) informed her they are going to suspend all of her husband’s benefits. According to United States Representative Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), "this is what you have when vindictive leftists get in charge of major parts of the government." In an unsigned letter from the VA—dated June 13 and appearing to originate from the "Director Regional Office,"—Angel and Kenneth Harrelson were notified that the administration "received information from the United States Department of Justice" that Kenneth had been "indicted and charged with Seditious Conspiracy (18 U.S.C 2384)." Page 1 of the unsigned letter received by Angel and Kenneth Harrelson from the "Director Regional Office" "informing them that their Veterans Benefits are being suspended due to 38 U.S. Code § 6105 — Forfeiture for subversive activities, which requires that an individual be "convicted" of a listed crime, not "indicted." (Courtesy of Angel Harrelson) The letter further noted that: "Pursuant to 38 U.S. Code § 6105(a)"—Forfeiture for subversive activities—"after receiving notice of an indictment for the above offense" the "VA must suspend payment of gratuitous benefits pending disposition of the criminal proceedings. If convicted, gratuitous benefits are forfeited, automatically, from and after the date of the offense." The "date of the offense" is Jan. 6, 2021. "Based on the information above," the VA further informed the Harrelsons that they "propose to suspend" their "compensation benefit payments effective September 1, 2022, which is the first day of the month following a 60-day due process period."

| #4 Oh, they know, they're just doing it anyway. What are you going to do about it? The government is just straight up breaking its own laws. Who's going to arrest the Department of Justice? They're literally the law of the land. |

| #2 Lawfare at work. Check out 38 USC 6105(c) which I suspect is causing this issue. Para (a) says "convicted" as does para (c) but then is followed by a notification requirement for both "indicted or convicted." As I read the statute, only a conviction can result in a suspension of benefits. Somebody is misreading the statute and hasn't made the proper differentiation between the notification clause [para (c)] and suspension requirements [para (a)]. |

| #1 So much for "Innocent until proven Guilty" As the DNC turns the screws in an attempt to force prisoners to confess instead of going to trial. |
