On Tuesday, President Trump suggested he’d like the military to look into disciplinary action against Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman, the Purple Heart recipient who courageously testified before Congress regarding the Trump-Ukraine scandal. It’s blatant retaliation. We cannot let this president target one more public servant for doing nothing more than upholding their oath to our Constitution. Donate $10 today to send me to Washington to lead by example. Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman As an Iraq War veteran who worked in national security for over 14 years, and as a someone running to represent my hometown of San Antonio -- “Military City USA” -- it’s scary to think that other public servants and my brothers and sisters-in-arms may similarly be retaliated against if they’re seen as “disloyal” to the president. The president’s actions against Lt. Col. Vindman are petty, vindictive, and shameful. He’s trying to scare others into blind loyalty, and it’s just the latest dangerous step toward politicizing our military. Donate today to help me get to Congress and send a message that the American people won’t sit by while the president politicizes our military and maligns a war hero for political gain.
