Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., has called for the immediate termination of at least a dozen Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) employees who reportedly accessed the medical records of vice presidential candidates Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Mast, chairman of Veterans For Trump, has urged VA Secretary Denis McDonough to take swift action to address these privacy violations and prevent future occurrences.
According to sources, VA employees within the health administration are currently under criminal investigation for improperly accessing the medical records of Vance and Walz. The VA Inspector General's office has informed the candidates' campaigns and shared evidence with federal prosecutors regarding several employees, including a physician and a contractor.
