I am correct to understand the "This is what you get" as referring to the fraud, yes?
Yep, just like the fraud the government gets for hiring some military veterans, no matter whether the Constitution addresses the specific issue or not,

Former Employee Sentenced for Defrauding the Veterans Administration
Assistant U. S. Attorneys Dylan M. Aste (619) 546-7621 and Valerie H. Chu (619) 546-6750
NEWS RELEASE SUMMARY – December 6, 2021
SAN DIEGO – Anthony Medrano, a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps and former employee of the Veterans Administration, was sentenced in federal court today to eight months in custody for defrauding the Department of Veterans Affairs out of more than $183,000.
According to his plea agreement, Medrano admitted that between approximately November 2015 and May 2020, he submitted claims to the Veterans Administration (VA) in which he purported to be disabled so that he could obtain caregiver benefits for his wife, when he was actually able-bodied and even participating in fitness challenges and coaching youth sports.
Medrano executed this scheme while employed in the VA’s Veterans Benefits Administration as a Veterans Service Representative, a position in which he explained benefit programs and entitlement criteria to veterans applying for VA benefits.
