239 years ago today, 39 men signed a document that starts with three words: “We the People.”
Not we, the government. Not we the powerful. We the People.
Happy Constitution Day. 🇺🇸

Last night, Congress passed the War Powers Resolution on Iran.
This is a great step toward ending endless wars, as most Americans seek to reduce America’s footprint in the Middle East and bring our troops home.

ICYMI: @JohnByrnes13 published an op-ed in @USATODAY on how his experience on 9/11 shaped his foreign policy viewpoints after serving multiple deployments in the Middle East.

Since 9/11/01 the "Security State" has exploded.
My friend & colleague @donaldbryson in @CarolinaJournal on the latest example:
"Flock cameras and the search for angels"

He ran toward danger. For his neighbors, his community, and his country.
As a National Guard Soldier, CVA’s @JohnByrnes13 was at Ground Zero after the World Trade Center was attacked to save survivors and recover those we lost.
That tragic day changed him for the rest of his life.
This is his story.

Today’s the big day!
What better way to kick things off than to have @JohnVickFL and Jenn DePew on the local airways? 🔊
Big shoutout to @995WRNN for helping us amplify tonight’s event! 🔥

It is projected to take until potentially 2030 to replenish US munitions to pre-war levels. Additionally, 42 aircraft and systems have been lost to the conflict.

Congress has an opportunity to deliver on the promises made to our veterans. Click the link and tell your representatives “It’s time to pass the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act!”

🎖️ Marine → 🏛️ Councilman → 🤝 CVA member
Service looks different across the board, and a DD-214 was never going to stop @amiller0311.
Watch how he found his next calling. 👇

The process started in 2022 and kept going right up until now that the process is complete. That’s how long this process takes. Changes to the ratings schedule have occurred 11 times since 2009 and that money was all lost. We can’t let that happen this time.

"Nearly 8 in 10 veterans believe that government shutdowns are harmful to national security"
Time to pass the Prevent Government Shutdowns Act!

AI has dramatically strengthened the confirmation bias of every argument to such a frightening extent.
Please stop using it to think for you.
@Grok is this true? Come up with a counter argument and make sure to refute the main point.
We would probably solve a lot more of the problems surrounding veterans’ benefits if we stopped sending so many service members to valueless combat zones in pursuit of fruitless wars.
Eleven nights of strikes. $37.5 billion spent. American service members killed. 145 days of conflict, all without congressional authorization or a clear end. This is mission creep live and up close.

Some organizations have raised concerns.
We hear them.
But rejecting TCAVA because of the offset means walking away from The Major Richard Star Act relief, caregiver support, survivor protections, and better healthcare — with no viable alternative path currently on the table that can pass PAYGO rules.
If the savings are happening anyway, they belong to veterans — not the Treasury. That is the practical, veteran-first choice.

We can still pass this bill this year!
My family and I support TCAVA with every once of energy that I have (we have) .
I don't know where the VFW can say, "MRS Family does not support TCAVA".... I have urged congress to pass TCAVA (and the MRSA) numerous times. Spoken along side of members of congress, make thousands of posts/replies. YES WE SUPPORT TCAVA
