Tough news from VoteVets

It’s a tough time, it’s the end of summer, and it’s just hard to stay locked in with everything because of how crazy the news is every single day. We get it. John — we hate when this happens. We fell short of our mid-quarter fundraising goals yesterday. To be clear, this is not your fault. You…

$5 for VoteVets. Can we count on you?

If you’re still with VoteVets, can you chip in to help us run white hot and full steam ahead to Election Day? John, we’re asking you to chip in $5 to VoteVets. No sense taking up any more of your time on this than is absolutely necessary. So, yes. $5. $5 to beat the GOP at their own game, b…

Quick Reaction Force?

American Troops deployed on American soil against American citizens at the order of the President of the United States. In the Military, a quick reaction force (QRF) is a pre-staged element of personnel ready to respond at a moment’s notice to a number of situations. Most MAGA types heard abo…

An abuse of power unlike any we have witnessed in our lifetimes

The President of the United States, a man with obvious dictatorial ambitions, has taken control of the police force in our nation’s capital. He has deployed an active duty Military force against the citizens of Los Angeles, and is doing the same against the citizens of Washington, D.C. now. JOH…

“It wasn’t that easy for me either.”

Trump can’t help but insult the Military, Veterans, their families, and the sacrifices they make. Maybe that’s why there are so many Veterans signing up with VoteVets to run for elected office? This guy seriously can’t stop. Trump hosted 100 Purple Heart recipients at the White House yesterda…

The Guardian: JD Vance’s team had water level of Ohio river raised for a boating trip on his vacation

We can’t let ourselves become numb to this ridiculous level of corruption. While Congress slashed healthcare to give billionaires a tax break, JD Vance took a trip out to Ohio for his birthday. He made the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers raise the water levels of a river so he could have a nice ka…
