Veterans Affairs whistleblower in Saint Louis claims he was demoted after coming forward

May 20, 2014

 We recently heard the story of  Lisa Lee: she is the whistleblower who came forward and told us about the secret waiting list in the Phoenix office of Veterans Affairs. She claims that when she refused to cook the books she was ordered to transfer, and once she spilled the beans on the waiting list she was suspended for two weeks without pay. When she started talking to the Feds the Phoenix office of Veterans Affairs offered to pay her for the two weeks and remove the suspension from her record in return for her silence.

  Now we are learning the story of Jose Mathews: he was head of the Veterans Affairs office in Saint Louis and he claims that once he came forward he was demoted and has been the victim of bullying.

  Here is more:

Dr. Jose Mathews says he’s paying the price for being a whistle-blower at the VA hospital in St. Louis.

He didn’t hold back as he told his story to KMOX.

Mathews was head of psychiatry at the VA before he came forward to say that doctors were treating only half the mental health patients they had the capacity to handle.

After, he says he was promptly removed from his position and specifically instructed not to contact any of the psychiatrists he was leading.

But even though he was re-located to a basement office, Mathews continues going to work at the VA as scheduledbut says there has been harassment from some co-workers.

“They’re sometimes mocking,” he says. “There are sometimes people who make it a point to come into my office and laugh. Seriously, this is not a joke.”

  There seems to be a pattern emerging here…..

    If you check out the picture I just posted 2 minutes after you posted this, ask yourself “do we just about have it figured out yet?” I really hate to see things come to that, but I fear the day is nigh. This administration can not last another 2+ years or America will never recuperate, it may already be past the point of no return.

      Sadly I think we might be beyond the point of no return, I hope I am wrong.

        Maybe it’s more of ‘blasting forth into the Light of Day’ that’s needed! If we go back, things will just repeat if not fixed. The ‘Reset’ needs a better ‘Default’ OS! We tend to forget that a faulty Premise results in error. Meaning, the source code program is only as good as its writer. If the writer is not founded on and in a Greater Truth, then the programs are subject to error and viruses. Who’s behind the world Reality Matrix programs? or have we been programed to not see, or blind to, the one behind the curtain.

        Yeah, the media and the television have programmed us not to pay attention to what really matters by making sure we are up on pop culture. But this must be what the people want because it seems to be working.

    I’ll bet that Obama was mad as hell when he heard about this on the news. Mad as hell that his people were stupid enough to get caught.
