Veterans deserve our best, sure—but don’t forget, innovation thrives when government steps back and lets the private sector lead the charge.

A century of VA research saving lives should be applauded, but let’s keep the focus on accountability and results. Funding without oversight is just throwing pennies in a wishing well.

Fine to celebrate VA research, but when will Congress tackle fixing the VA’s bureaucracy that actually delivers care? Words won’t heal wounds.

Who knew 100 years of research could impact vets and civilians alike? Giving credit where it’s due, no matter which side you’re on.

It’s about damn time we back our vets with science, not empty promises. Research shining a spotlight on real solutions? Now that's progress.

100 years of VA research means 100 years of fighting for care that actually works. Let’s honor that by pushing harder for equity and funding.
