Examples

“He is in a VA hospital.”
“Mr. Musk’s cuts will affect⟳ thousands of veterans — a powerful constituency and a core part of the Trump base⟳. Mr. Collins made the point⟳ that they should not wield a blunt instrument and cleave off everyone from the V.A. […] A Department of Veterans Affairs spokesman said, “As President Trump has said, it’s important to increase⟳ efficiency and reduce⟳ bureaucracy while keeping in place⟳ the best and most productive federal employees. V.A. is working with DOGE and the rest⟳ of the administration to do just that.””
“The VA is scrapping those plans for now, but it is on pace to reduce⟳ the total number⟳ of staffers by nearly 30,000, “through the federal hiring freeze⟳, deferred resignations, retirements and normal attrition,” the agency said in a news release⟳, adding that those cuts will eliminate “the need⟳ for a large-scale reduction-in-force.””
