04.03.2026 22:23 β π 29 π 9 π¬ 4 π 1Common Defense, a grassroots veterans organization, issued a statement condemning Senator Tim Sheehy for his physical assault on Marine veteran Brian McGinnis. The incident occurred during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing where McGinnis protested Sheehy's actions as a senator. The statement, attributed to Executive Director Jose Vasquez, emphasizes protecting constitutional rights and veterans' voices. The image includes the Common Defense logo.
The video is clear: Tim Sheehy broke a veteranβs arm to silence him.
Using force to suppress a constituent is a total disqualification for office.
We served to protect the right to speak out, not to see it assaulted by a politician in a suit.
No more excuses.
Theyβre still lying to us.

Trump got 3 American soldiers killed today because of his unconstitutional war of choice.
Everyone should be mad as hell that this warmonger in chief is sending peopleβs sons and daughters into yet another unjustified war. #NoWarWithIran #EndForeverWar // @commondefense.bsky.social
Trump is dragging us into another immoral forever war. Congress must stop this and reclaim their authority on war powers.
Demand they do their jobs before more lives are lost!
No War with Iran!

Trump is pouring gasoline on a fire that our communities are fighting to put out.
Our service was about protection, not occupation. We didn't sign up for a political crackdown on our neighbors.
The mission:
β End the occupation
β Protect our neighbors
β Demand accountability
These fascist bootlickers will never win. Iβm pissed for my congresswoman and also immensely proud of her for dealing with more shit than anyone ever should have to.

The old constitutional order is gone, and we should be straightforward about that. Itβs becoming obvious that, whatever else is on the reconstruction agenda, ICE abolition must be included.
For goodnessβ sake, Bill Kristol is in favor of it. Can you really not get there? trib.al/rPjQYKp
This is what patriotism looks like: protecting our neighbors and fighting fascism.
Veterans and military family members are calling out for justice and an end to Trumpβs war on our communities. Get involved at @commondefense.bsky.social
The Trump regime murdered Renee Nicole Good. Minneapolis came together last night to demand justice and show that we will not be intimidated into silence by fascists. Rest in Power Renee. β€οΈβ

I saw the video, there is no justification for DHS agents shooting and killing a woman here in Minneapolis. This is exactly why ICE should not be in our communities!
We must remain peaceful because Trump wants an excuse to escalate AND Minnesota must prosecute ICE for this.
Trump and his gestapo goons will find they will get no help Minnesotans.
Ice belongs on our wintery lakes and rivers not terrorizing our communities and neighbors.
βThis tragedy also underscores the grave risks created when troops are deployed domestically for political purposes. Escalating the domestic militarization of our cities will only put more troops at risk.β

Donald Trump is unleashing masked federal agents and military troops into our neighborhoods β dragging people off the streets, terrorizing families, and treating American communities like occupied zones.
Congress has the power to stop this abuse of power.
Trumpβs masked gestapo just shoved a Common Defense member and Air Force veteran to the ground and arrested him for peacefully protesting in Illinois.
The lawlessness of this regime must end β and he must be released immediately!
When Democrats defend democracy, we are protecting not only its legal and moral infrastructure, but all of its concrete material achievements for the people, like Medicaid, Social Security and Medicare.
When we defend democracy, we defend progress.
