Furious Veterans slam Trump team's altercation at Arlington National Cemetery

Two sources told USA TODAY the incident occurred when
🆘 a member of Trump's team pushed his way into recording in a part of the cemetery, known as Section 60,
👉where photography is prohibited.

Video from Section 60 -- where recently buried U.S. service members are interred,
later appeared in a Trump campaign Tik Tok in which he criticizes President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

🆘 "Donald Trump has 💥no right to use our most hallowed ground for his political aims,"
Fred Wellman, a 22-year Army combat veteran, said Wednesday.

"For a lot of us, and I'm not the only one, people are aptly #furious."

USA TODAY · 'Furious': Veterans slam Trump team's altercation at Arlington National CemeteryBy Rachel Barber

@divya
How utterly arbitrary and pointless. I was diagnosed with #ADHD as an adult in 2009 by my primary care physician at the time, and do you wanna know what the official diagnostic process was? A simple, 10-question self-assessment form with a cumulative score at the end.

THAT'S IT.

I answered truthfully, got my diagnosis, and I've been receiving treatment ever since. It makes me absolutely #furious that patients seeking an ADHD diagnosis nowadays are being subjected to such a ridiculous process, which seems deliberately designed to prevent them from being diagnosed!

Making an untreated ADHD patient jump through countless administrative and scheduling hoops is like asking a #blind person to solve one of those traffic light #CAPTCHAs, or asking a #deaf person to name the title and artist of a song playing on the radio.

Seriously, I'm losing my cool over here, and it's not just my #hyperactive sense of #injustice. This kind of policy should be straight up illegal. 🤬

The good news: my skillet #lasagna came out ok again #food #cooking

The bad news: today is my 1 year anniversary of losing my senses of #smell and #taste to #LongCovid

It's only gotten worse over the past 3 months. So today I chopped 10 cloves of #garlic and absolutely could not smell anything

I ate #pineapple and it could have been cardboard. I've put on 30 lbs trying to find something I can taste. Nothing is satisfying without #flavor and #aroma

4 months ago I could make out the scent of #lavender from #peppermint. No more

Very #depressed #despairing #pissedoff #furious #resigned #OhWell

Finally, the #FTC intends to impose real #privacy rules on #Meta: New services or service changes only after an independent privacy evaluation shows that they are compliant. No commercial use of data harvested from #underage users.

This is the end of "move fast and break things".

Meta is #furious. I reported in German in more detail for @heiseonline
