Some politicians are telling us now isn't the time to speak frankly about
Afghanistan. I'm not surprised.

For decades, elites told the American people we were winning this war.
Later, they told us while Iraq was wrong, Afghanistan was the war worth
fighting. They told us it was worth the lives, worth the money, worth the
time. It was all lies.

Serving there -- and what I saw when I came home -- factored heavily in my
decision to run for U.S. Senate here in Missouri.

I’ve always said one of the hardest parts of my deployments in Iraq and
Afghanistan was coming home to my old neighborhood in Cole County,
Missouri. Empty lots, abandoned buildings, a gutted Midwest. Our own
communities look like battlefields after decades of economic warfare waged
by corrupt politicians and massive corporations.

They spent $6.4 trillion in taxpayer dollars sending soldiers like me out
to fight on a doomed mission to build up someone else's country -- because
they thought it made them look strong. Then they turned around and told us
we can’t "afford" nation-building right here at home.

It’s time for this broken status quo to come to an end. We can’t let the
same crooks and liars who got us into these pointless wars continue
calling the shots in Congress. That’s why I’m running for U.S. Senate in
Missouri. It’s time for a people-powered movement to fight back.

Together, we’re going to end these pointless wars and invest in our own
communities.

-- Lucas Kunce, candidate for U.S. Senate in Missouri

A message from Team Lucas Kunce

We’re building a people-powered movement to fundamentally change who has
power in this country so working people finally call the shots. The last
time this U.S. Senate seat in Missouri was up, it was decided by less than
80,000 votes. We can win this race — but we can’t do it without your
support.
