Stewart tore into Republicans for blocking a veteran health care bill, saying they “haven’t met a veteran they won’t screw over.”
access to health care for veterans exposed to burn pits, and subsequently diagnosed with rare cancers and respiratory illnesses—from advancing.
“Ain’t this a bitch,” Stewart said. “America’s heroes, who fought in our wars, outside sweating their asses off…battling all kinds of ailments, while these motherfuckers sit in the air conditioning, walled off from any of it. They don’t have to hear it, they don’t have to see it. They don’t have to understand that these are human beings…. I’m used to the lies, I’m used to the hypocrisy…. Senate is where accountability goes to die…. I’m used to all of it. But I am not used to cruelty.
He continued: “[Republicans] haven’t met a war they won’t sign up for, and they haven’t met a veteran they won’t screw over…. Now they say, ‘Well, this will get done, maybe after we get back from our summer recess, maybe during the lame duck.’ Because they’re on Senate time…. Senate time is ridiculous. These motherfuckers live to 200. They’re tortoises. They live forever and they never lose their jobs and they never lose their benefits and they never lose all those things.
