One Big, Beautiful Bill – But Is It?


Listen Later

In this episode of The Forgotten Oath, host Donald Dunn takes a no-holds-barred look at the controversial legislation dubbed the "One Big, Beautiful Bill" — a sweeping piece of policy with promises of military investment, tax reform, and veteran housing support. But is it really all that beautiful?

Donald, a combat veteran with 68 months of deployment, breaks down what’s inside the bill — from SNAP restrictions that could gut support for struggling service members, to the $1.8 billion aimed at barracks maintenance, to a proposed Veterans Housing Fund fueled by corporate stock buyback taxes. He shares personal stories, policy analysis, and a hard dose of reality about how this legislation could impact real veterans.

With sharp commentary, brutally honest insights, and a politically independent stance, this episode challenges listeners to think for themselves: Does this bill help our heroes — or leave them behind once again?

💥 Topics Covered:

  • What’s in the "One Big Beautiful Bill" that affects veterans
  • Why military families are still on food stamps
  • Barracks upgrades vs. privatized military housing
  • Can the VA and HUD be trusted to manage new housing funds?
  • The harsh truth about homelessness, addiction, and PTSD
  • Why the bill lacks PACT Act expansion and VA reform
