This is a truth we have to grapple with:

CNN: 1 in 10 defendants from US Capitol insurrection have military ties. Fight Back.

An unfortunate number of the rioters at the Capitol on January 6th were currently serving in the military or veterans. An Air Force veteran was shot and killed at the Capitol after having been sucked in by these conspiracy theories.

That’s because far right extremists are using social media to recruit servicemembers and veterans to their ranks. They’ve filled Facebook and Twitter feeds with conspiracy theories and insurrectionist nonsense for years -- and the effects are undeniable.

It’s our responsibility to fight this kind of right-wing disinformation in our ranks. And VoteVets is up to the challenge.

We are running an aggressive program to combat disinformation among veterans. This is an incredibly important issue, especially in a community where people have taken oaths to defend our constitution. Make a donation to support our work here if you can:

Now there is a right-wing conspiracy that Traitor Trump will retake office in August through a military coup. It’s outrageous -- but people are getting sucked into the lies, including people from our own military community. We need to do our part to combat this kind of dangerous disinformation.

This is important, so support our work with a contribution if you can.

Thank you,
