About Face members make clear to Congress members that they must do everything in their power to end the war on Iran now!
TONIGHT: join us to hear back from #veterans on lessons learned during their mobilizations to support community defense against #ICE violence in #Minnesota 🔗 8pm ET/7pm CT - bit.ly/VetsVsICE
We encourage everyone to attend emergency protests today and make your opposition clear and visible. The people don’t want this war. Now is the time to be loud and united. #HandsOffIran #NoWarOnIran /end
As Veterans, we have not forgotten and will fight to stop another gen. of lives from being destroyed by corrupt politicians who don’t care about the price the rest of us pay while they languish in their gilded offices. If you’re a Vet & agree, join us bit.ly/vafmeeting /4
Active military who don’t want to fight another rich man’s war, this time in Iran, you’re not alone. Reach out for support bit.ly/MilRights /3
Already there are reports that Trump’s Iran strikes killed dozens of innocent children? How many more will die? Millions were killed in Iraq, including our friends whose willingness to sacrifice for their nation was utterly betrayed while the people who sent us there got rich /2
We were founded as Iraq Veterans Against the War over the devastation we saw with our own eyes when Bush claimed we were going to liberate the people of Iraq and protect Americans. That war is now referred to as a blunder but it was a crime just like this War on Iran is now. /1
This Sunday! Calling all U.S. #Military #veterans who wants to learn how to take a stand against unchecked aggression across the U.S. Join us to get plugged in: bit.ly/vafmeeting
Trump ended 8 wars? Are the wars in the room with us right now? #SOTU
If they want to focus on fraud, waste and abuse maybe they can figure out why the Pentagon has $500 Billion they don’t know what to do with? #sotu

We call on all #Veterans who are disturbed by these acts of violence against our communities to #mobilize against it. Join Veterans Against Fascism. Feb 1, 5pm ET: bit.ly/vafmeeting
The White House is directly responsible for the violence in #Minneapolis and we demand Congress immediately impeach DHS Sec. Kristi Noem and block further funding to DHS.
Masked government agents executing people in the streets flies in the face of the most basic values and principles we supposedly swore to protect as members of the #military.
The Trump administration has gutted vital social services, like the #VA that our communities rely on and now has its agents shooting those workers in broad daylight.
Federal agents cosplaying in military uniforms murdered a man today who reportedly dedicated his life to saving critically ill Veterans. This cannot stand - we demand action.
