And is it very possible that in 2 years, the House flips. And who knows what is going to happen in the interim. People get distracted, things happen, moods change, focuses shift, etc. Taking a scalpel and not an axe to government spending is necessary.[b] But you can believe that when people hear Vets are going to bear the brunt of something, that will not please the executive branch who depends on their votes, unlike other gov agencies perhaps.[/b] And if something does happen, I do not see how it could happen in an instant given all circumstances. 1000 attorneys and judges coming into one building of 2 floors (soon to be down to 1) every day of the week will accomplish nothing, cause mass chaos, and we will all be prorating our time due to "administrative" issues out of our control. I cannot issue decisions without a computer, proper staff, and proper space to do it in. So, when our numbers decrease from 110,000 appeals to 50,000 appeals (if that), the Chairman (whoever it may be) can easily point to Congress as the cause and the person who initiated the return-to-office policy.

Thank you for that post.  I don't know about the bolded, though.  Veterans are actually a small voting block, and have been degraded enough by the R base that it seems like they are no longer a constituency that the new administration really wants to appease.[/quote]
