@commondefense.bsky.socialNo one is illegal on stolen land.
@commondefense.bsky.socialGovernor Pritzker has been leading the charge on so many issues that matter to Illinoisans. Under his leadership, IL has invested in modernized veterans’ housing, educational opportunities, and so much more! We are proud to endorse him for another term.
@commondefense.bsky.socialWe are proud to endorse Justin J. Pearson for Congress! Justin understands that standing with veterans means ensuring they have the support they need long after taking off the uniform and has shown he is ready to fight for Tennesseans in DC.
@commondefense.bsky.socialIt's been 20 days since Republicans fled DC rather than vote to impeach Hegseth, stop Trump's illegal war, or pass the Major Richard Star Act.
@commondefense.bsky.social18 states have voter registration deadlines this week! Use your state's secretary of state website or vote(.)org to verify your status and secure your vote! Oct.5: AZ, AR, FL, GA, IN, KY, LA, MS, MT, OH, TN, TX / Oct.6: IL, NV, NM / Oct.7: MO / Oct.9: NC, OK / Oct.10: DE
@commondefense.bsky.socialThe veterans and military families of Common Defense are ready to send Roy Cooper to the Senate!
@commondefense.bsky.socialNew endorsement alert! Angela Gonzales-Torres will be a strong voice for veterans, military families, and the communities they call home, which is why Common Defense is proud to endorse her for California's 34th District!
@commondefense.bsky.socialWe are proud to endorse Senator Jon Ossoff ( @ossoff.bsky.social ) for re-election to the U.S. Senate in Georgia! During his time in office, Senator Ossoff has consistently and relentlessly fought to deliver for Georgia’s veterans, active service members, and military families.
@commondefense.bsky.socialUPDATE: Lindsey has been released! ✊
@commondefense.bsky.socialVeterans were peacefully protesting Trump’s illegal & unjust war in Iran near Fort Bragg today when police arrested Army veteran & Common Defense organizer, Lindsey. Vets won’t be intimidated into silence. She is safe & we are working to get her free now. More updates to follow.
@commondefense.bsky.socialArticles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth were filed. Congress chose an early recess.
In the military, we have a word for failing to do your duty: dereliction.
@dashannestokes.comReposted by @commondefense.bsky.socialTuberville claiming that many airline personnel are furries raises important questions: -How does he know? -Why does he care even if some are? -What is it about furries that he finds terrifying? -Why are furries more terrifying to him than the madman and rapist he supports in the White House?
@commondefense.bsky.socialToday marks the halfway point for Operation Take Up Space. Every stop so far has proven that civic engagement can run on hope instead of fear. More road ahead.
@commondefense.bsky.socialPoliticians keep choosing war and a privatized VA forever. Common Defense is choosing Tom Perriello.
Common Defense is proud to endorse @TomPerriello for Congress in VA-05.
He knows the cost of a failed foreign policy because we've lived it.

@commondefense.bsky.socialCommon Defense endorsed Justin Wagner for Congress in PA-16. He served in Iraq, stayed in the Army Reserves, and works union.
Veterans want leaders who show up, listen, and hold power accountable.
That's why we're backing him.

@commondefense.bsky.social"I stand alongside women veterans who are upholding their oaths to support and defend this Constitution."
@commondefense.bsky.socialThe Pentagon's public casualty count for the Iran war is wrong. Officials say at least 22, maybe 23, troops have died, not 18. Congress never authorized this war and still won't hold anyone accountable for the truth about it.

He just became a naturalized U.S. citizen, and today, he registered to vote for the very first time. 🇺🇸
