John: When Trump threatened “war” on our cities, Win Without War responded with a Know-Your-Rights campaign to let troops know their options if faced with unethical or illegal orders.
But Trump’s weaponization of the military for unauthorized, unjustified campaigns hasn’t been limited to just our own cities. As we write, the U.S. government is on the brink of war with Venezuela after more than a dozen lethal strikes on boats on its coast. Legal experts agree that those strikes are illegal extrajudicial killings — in other words, the Trump administration has murdered more than 57 people.
To keep resisting Trump’s lawlessness and build enough power to stop a war, we need to take our Know-Your-Rights campaign to the next level. That’s why we just launched a NEW billboard near the U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) headquarters in Doral, Florida, the launch point for nearly ALL U.S. forces in Latin America, including the many Navy ships now menacing Venezuela.

Our billboards are gaining traction, and this is the moment to double down. Will you split a donation of $5 between Win Without War and Democratic Values to help us get more billboards up and provide resources to more servicemembers? [[link removed], 5, 5, 5, 5, 5]

When Trump deployed the National Guard into cities as part of his “war from within,” Win Without War sprang into action to defend our communities.
What started with a mobile billboard in Washington, DC, asking troops to reflect on whether this is what they signed up for and informing them of their rights has only grown in the face of Trump’s “war from within” and out. Thanks to the amazing response from supporters like you, we were able to quickly expand our Know-Your-Rights campaign to other cities where Trump deployed troops, Chicago and Memphis, and to two major military installations, Fort Bragg and Camp Lejeune, in North Carolina.

Donations from supporters like you have fueled and expanded this work, John. Thank you. But we’re not done yet — not even close.
We’re letting servicemembers know they have options if they’re ordered to break the law in Trump’s ongoing bombing campaign in Latin America.
Expanding to SOUTHCOM HQ in Florida comes at a critical moment. The command is reportedly in turmoil after the admiral overseeing it abruptly announced his resignation.
Amidst a series of unauthorized, unjustified strikes against boats off the coast of Venezuela, “people are angry,” one official told The Intercept. Another said key personnel at SOUTHCOM are “disillusioned.”
Your donations can ensure more servicemembers see our resources if confronted with illegal orders. They allow us to extend our current billboard placements even longer, intensify the frequency so that more eyes are seeing them, and expand them to even more critical locations around the country.
It’s just one of the ways we’re working to bolster the rule of law and pull us off the path toward war with Venezuela, and it’s by far the most expensive — that’s why we’re coming to you today.
These billboards come with a lot of risk and hefty price tags, John. Can you help us expand our Know-Your-Rights campaign with a split donation today? [[link removed]]
The more money we can raise today, the more places we can put billboards up to keep this campaign going, defend our democracy, and build a safer future.
Our vision for a world where people live and thrive free from violence is still possible when people like us — people like you— do all we can, in ways big and small, to make it happen.
Thank you for working for peace,
The Win Without War team
