If Donald Trump can't stay awake at his own cabinet meetings, what's he doing in classified briefings @reptedlieu.bsky.social just confronted Sec. Rubio about this under oath. Rubio lied, and Lieu caught him.

BIG NEWS out of New Jersey. Rebecca Bennett just WON the NJ-07 Democratic Primary. VoteVets invested a total of $1 million into the race, creating an incredible ad that featured her Navy co-pilot Jeff Lindbom. THIS is how we win: strong candidates, sharp messages, and authentic messengers.

Cory Booker just made Marco Rubio look so bad that Senate Republicans had to step in and cut him off. EMBARRASSING

345 147

Want to know who's NOT far right? Josh Turek. Iowa's Democratic Senate primary is TOMORROW, June 2nd, and Jacob is voting for .@turek4iowa because Iowa needs a Senator that's focused on delivering for Iowans, not Donald Trump.

Chris Deluzio served under both Bush and Obama. Can you imagine either of them, in the middle of a war, burning nine minutes of a cabinet meeting to talk about reflecting pools?

194 65

Trump is reportedly about to hand them $300 BILLION to end a war that he started but can't win. This is what losing a forever war looks like.

281 132

Control of the Senate runs through Iowa in 2026. From three tours in Afghanistan, to watching Iowa National Guard troops come home from Kuwait, Ben (PressxRepeat) knows the cost of forever wars, and he trusts Josh Turek to take that cost seriously. #Iowa #VetsForTurek

VoteVets is announcing a ONE MILLION dollar ad buy in support of Cait Conley - the front-runner in the Democratic primary in New York’s 17th Congressional District.

132 60

Sen. Tammy Duckworth just EXPOSED Donald Trump for downplaying the injuries to our troops in his reckless war against Iran. THIS is the type of accountability we need.

208 78

Yesterday, we sent a message across Washington D.C. that Forever Wars Bring PAIN At The Pump. To show what that really means, we filled up the BILLBOARD TRUCK, and the total price says it all. ⛽

NO MORE FOREVER WARS

220 86

In the middle of an active war. Pete Hegseth flew to Kentucky to campaign against Thomas Massie. Why? Because had the guts to oppose Trump’s forever war. Apparently having a spine is what gets you kicked out of the GOP.

167 51

House Minority Leader @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social says Pete Hegseth is the "most unqualified SecDef in history" and the next to depart DC. Democrats are keeping the foot on the gas to end Hegseth's disastrous term at the Pentagon.

179 48

Ben supports Josh Turek because of his story. 2 misdiagnoses on his shoulder, physical therapy that most likely worsened his injury, steroid shots, and having to go outside the VA healthcare system to get it fixed. Iowa, choose someone who’s going to fight for YOU.

109 29

Leader Hakeem Jeffries blasted Donald Trump’s recent summit in China, warning Trump played a "weak hand" and gave too much away to the CCP leader. Jeffries also took aim at the Pentagon, calling Pete Hegseth "the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in American history."

454 175

If Donald Trump put half as much effort into ending the Iran war as he does into his tweets, we'd already be out.

186 49

Sen. Duckworth did NOT hold back, calling Trump out as a wannabe dictator who idolizes Putin and Xi, plays strongman for the cameras, and folds every time the moment demands more than tough talk. The Iran war hasn't made America stronger, it's strengthened the dictators he imitates.

443 174

Elissa Slotkin just gave Donald Trump a free Middle East 101 lesson: don't pick a fight with a country that can choke off the world's oil supply and then refuse to tell Americans why it was worth it.

242 85

BREAKING: Hegseth just confirmed that a ceasefire is, in fact, when the fire ceases. Thanks for the clarification Pete...

115 26

Donald Trump went to a military high school and thinks he knows more than about war than our admirals and generals. The cost of his arrogance? 13 dead Americans, 150 dead Iranian children, Gas prices spiking at home, and a war with no off-ramp.

198 83

Ted Lieu is sounding the alarm: the Iran War exposed just how unprepared we are. The U.S. started running low on defensive munitions in less than 60 days. Now imagine a prolonged conflict with China or Russia..

598 257

Ron DeSantis can gerrymander Florida all he wants, but he can't redraw his way out of reality. @leelagray.bsky.social knows that voters are done with business as usual, and we're proud to have her back.

104 29

Trump tried to jail him. Hegseth tried to demote him. But Mark Kelly isn't backing down from this fight. They picked the wrong guy. Don't give up the ship ⚓

400 116

America First means taking care of Americans, not burning billions of dollars on a war Congress never authorized. Iowa deserves a Senator who will fight for Iowans. @turek4iowa is that fighter.

159 47

Hegseth and Rubio held Pentagon briefings about Project FREEDOM, their newest military campaign in Iran. It was... interesting to say the least.

76 25

Rep. Maggie Goodlander used Pete Hegseth's own words to make a clear point: the U.S. military will not follow unlawful orders. Hegseth tried to call the question partisan but Goodlander reminded him that HE was the one who said that. He confirmed it under oath, let's hold him to it.

437 180

Our newest Ad "Start Early" features retired Army National Guard Colonel John Oakley explaining why Joshua Turek is the candidate Iowa needs in the U.S. Senate. Turek's campaign is focused on ending Washington corruption, holding Donald Trump accountable, and refusing all corporate PAC money.

114 39

"You're the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to incompetence." Salud Carbajal did NOT hold back when confronting Pete Hegseth at last week's hearing.

197 53

Sending troops out on Election Day isn't a hypothetical or a gotcha. It's a question every Secretary of Defense should be able to answer in one word: NO. Pete Hegseth couldn't. That alone speaks volumes.

406 161

Senator Gallego and Pete Hegseth both served in the Iraq War, but they learned two completely different lessons. Gallego learned what forever conflicts cost, while Pete Hegseth is still itching for the next one.

153 55

No off-ramp. No answer. That's not a strategy. That's a disaster. Mark Kelly just delivered Pete Hegseth a BRUTAL reality check.

233 74

Seth Moulton just GRILLED Pete Hegseth on his disastrous campaign in Iran. This is what real accountability looks like.

867 277

VoteVets is doubling down on @rebeccabennettforcongress.com in her primary race by launching another $200,000 ad buy today. This November, we're going to flip NJ-07 blue, but only if Rebecca Bennett is the Democrat on the ballot.

71 22

Even Megyn Kelly's audience has had enough. You don't crater this badly without your own base walking away. With no presidential top of the ticket, base enthusiasm is everything. Theirs is gone.

110 26

.@deluzio.house.gov is right. It's very clear that Donald Trump has NO IDEA what to do in Iran. Yet it's everyday Americans and our fallen service members that pay the price of this War.

153 53

TMZ — yes, TMZ — just hit Pete Hegseth with the hardest question he's faced all year.

286 90

The Commander in Chief of the United States. Sleeping on the job — literally.

292 100

Donald Trump wants our security apparatus focused on POLITICS rather than national security.

72 23

VoteVets is announcing a six-figure ad buy in support of Rebecca Bennett – the front-runner in the Democratic primary in NJ-07. A former U.S. Navy pilot and current officer in the Air National Guard, Bennett is a business leader and working mom with the experience needed to lead in tough fights.

253 72

Tulsi Gabbard built her brand railing against forever wars. Now she's chasing conspiracy theories instead of doing her job. That's not leadership. That's cosplay.

147 33

Pete Hegseth and this entire White House have the THINNEST SKIN imaginable.

173 48

The MAGA movement has been built on nothing but LIES.

175 44

Today, VoteVets is launching a third TV ad in its multi-million dollar campaign to help elect Josh Turek to the U.S. Senate in Iowa. Josh is the only candidate for Senate in Iowa who isn’t a millionaire and he’s not taking a dime of corporate PAC money.

196 80

Donald Trump's VA turned its back on veterans and has LITERALLY forced them onto the street. Their cruelty knows no bounds.

161 64

Our current objectives in Iran are either a return to the status quo of 120 days ago, or an attempt to re-establish the Obama-Iran deal made over a decade ago. So WTF was the point of this war again?

174 53

From Navy Officer to Obama appointee — Anmar Campa-Najjar knows the value of public service. Now he's fighting to flip CA-48 Blue, and VoteVets is investing $225K to make it happen.

109 33

Calling Donald Trump's war strategy schizophrenic is putting it mildly.

203 56

Donald Trump's only qualification for his advisors is loyalty, that's not just naive, it's dangerous and we've seen the consequences these past 40 days.

258 67

Pete Buttigeg just EMBARRASSED Joe Kernen on national TV.

246 49

Pete Buttigeg just TORCHED Donald Trump for backing down from his own goal of unconditional surrender in Iran.

264 81

Trump said that the Iranian nuclear program had been "effectively annihilated" but here we are six months later back in Iran. Did they lie then, or are they lying now?

165 41

Stationing ICE at military graduations on Parris Island is Trump telling Latino servicemembers that they do not belong. If ICE is willing to come after graduating servicemembers and their families, who will they target next?

305 152

Americans are paying for this war everyday at the gas pump. But Congressman Derrick Van Orden wants to hand Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth a $200 BILLION blank check for another forever war in the Middle East. Say NO to war with Iran Call Congressman Derrick Van Orden: (608) 782-2558

184 70

Donald Trump abandoned MAGA core principles the second he started another forever war in the Middle East.

122 34

With Republicans on the run, Democrats need to broaden their aspirations, and fight hard in states like Florida to secure a Senate majority in 2026.

216 58

The consequences of war are both devastating and generational, Josh Turek knows that best. We're proud to support him in the fight for Iowa Senate.
