Bost found a billion dollars for Trump's White House ballroom with no offset, no problem. Veterans asked for a billion in disability benefits, and he's making other veterans pay THOUSANDS each in new home loan fees to cover it. A ballroom. Sign the letter, take a stand - https://bit.ly/4f0Bn3u

They told us 18 troops were hurt in Iran. The real number is 140. An Iraq veteran and Common Defense political director just said what that means. #IranWar #VeteranVoices

10,000 veteran foreclosures. Estimates of 90,000 more coming. Mike Bost's solution: triple the refinancing fee. Make it harder for veterans to save their homes. Tell Congress to strip the fees - https://bit.ly/4dUV0c6

Patriotism means holding our leaders accountable for the missions they order. There is a fundamental disconnect between D.C. briefing rooms and the reality on the ground. Our troops deserve clear objectives and a real path home

History is repeating itself, and the cost is measured in American lives. From inadequate gear to unfortified bases, we are seeing the same systemic failures that defined the start of the Iraq War. Our troops deserve leaders who learn from the past, not ones who repeat it.

Trump's PAC is fundraising using a photo of a flag-draped casket from last week's dignified transfer of fallen soldiers. Our Georgia organizer, an Air Force veteran, heard about it and didn't hold back. "Just so he can sell a damn hat." #HonorTheFallen #VeteranVoices

As kids, Memorial Day was just a day off. We didn't understand it.

Please don't say "Happy Memorial Day" to a veteran. This day is not a celebration. It is to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country and defend democracy at home and around the world. We remember them.

A 20-year Army veteran on the part of Memorial Day most people skip past: not just who we lost, but what their sacrifice asks of us now.

When politicians beat the drums of war, they rarely consider the human cost. Naveed (Army, Iraq) reminds us that veterans are the true experts on the reality of conflict. The evidence doesn't add up. It’s time to stop the escalation before more lives are caught in the crossfire.

I've talked about this before, but one of my favorite pieces of media ever and my favorite piece of my favorite genre kind of delves into this a bit By having characters who have human " disguise" That kind of start to accept both of their faces as equally what they look like

We are three weeks away from the expiration of ACA subsidies, and Republicans still don't have a plan. They are failing Americans. We need real leadership that will protect healthcare. Right now, we don't have it.

Hollywood didn’t “wake up” — audiences did. As Rolla Selbak says in Ep. 59, people rejected Hollywood’s manufactured stories on #Palestine, and now the industry is scrambling to look like it cares. When Hollywood shifts overnight, ask why: Is it solidarity — or strategy?

I'm very grumpy, tired and frustrated. Our boiler broke when we were in Thailand last year and was patched up but we needed a new one. So we went eco and ordered a heat pump. It's very loud, we have no hot water or heating for five days and currently no water at all.

The presidential vote was rigged in 24. Elmo and kid admitted it to Carlson. Trump admitted it before the election. And 3 times after he bragged about it being rigged 2 in these clips. They confess to thier crimes. Hand counts only, because they rigged tabulation software. It's been confessed to.

Reading is fundamental and comprehension is paramount. This is classic because why lie? Also, why not just get the audiobook? Also, although the movie is ass. You could of use something from the movie. Lekud James said Shabazz said: “We are kings and queens.” 🤣
