The Middle East war drums are beating again. Zero Congressional authorization. Zero case made to anyone. Same playbook: manufactured threats, bypass Congress, rush to war. The Constitution says Congress declares war, not one person.

Nice attempt at a punt, but this isn't a game. Let's unpack how Wars of Choice turn into Forever Wars. 🧵🔽

They talk about war in press conferences. We pay for it at the gas station, the grocery store, and around the kitchen table. A veteran who deployed to Iraq breaks down what another forever war actually costs the people footing the bill. #EndForeverWar #NoWarOnOurStreets

Trump is pouring gasoline on a fire that our communities are fighting to put out. Our service was about protection, not occupation. We didn't sign up for a political crackdown on our neighbors. The mission: → End the occupation → Protect our neighbors → Demand accountability

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

@repmcgovern.bsky.social asked Rep. Mike Bost twice if he would allow a vote on an amendment to remove new fee increases (The Mike Bost Home Tax) on VA home loans. Bost: "I would not." He called protecting veterans from a fee hike a "poison pill." Tell Congress to VOTE NO - https://bit.ly/4f0Bn3u

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.

Political violence has absolutely no place in our nation. Our democracy can only function when we resolve our differences peacefully. I am grateful to law enforcement for their swift response and that no one was seriously injured last night.

Our drones are unstoppable. Russia’s defeat and demilitarization is the only peace plan.

I don't care what you think about BE or Hasan, so don't bother telling me. The larger point BE is making here is the problem with liberal Zionism, however: it can condemn Netanyahu, say the right things about Gaza, and still fail to treat the Israeli war industry as fundamentally disqualifying.
