alexander_s_vindman • 21h My statement on the U.S.-Iran War: @ Threads Statement from U.S. Senate Candidate Alex Vindman: 66 The Iranian regime is evil. For nearly half a century, it has inflicted death and destruction on Americans and our allies. I know that firsthand. I was wounded by an Iranian-made bomb while serving in Iraq. I also know this: wars without a plan are dangerous. Forever wars drain American strength, put our troops at risk without clear purpose, distract from real strategic priorities, and divert resources we should be investing at home. With American troops in harm's way, the President owes Congress and the American people immediate answers. What is the mission? What is the strategy? What is the end state? The Constitution requires it. 9 C) 2 229 + 36 ") 37 2

Meanwhile, here was Vindman's reaction to Trump attacking Iran: throat-clearing about how evil Iran is, mentioning that he was wounded by an "Iranian-made bomb"(?), and only asking for more information from Trump for more information about the goals of the war.

I think the truly damning thing about the Dem comms response is that they had months to prepare for today and there's zero coordination, no unified message. Just every D leader responding like they quickly hammered out a statement in a panic at 6 am this morning

Within a year I expect to hear: "Trump's decision to rutually sacrifice the school children touring the White House to Captain Crunch for the lack of prize he found in the bottom of his breakfast cereal was uncalled for and unconstitutional. I will be calling him later today to express my outrage."

We will eventually get to: "Trump's decision to ritually sacrifice the school children touring the White House to Captain Crunch for the lack of prize he found in the bottom of his breakfast cereal was uncalled for and unconstitutional. I will be calling him later today to express my outrage."

Millions could die or it could end suddenly because Trump is distracted by a squirrel on the White House lawn. But pundits will debate things like the world hasn't become what it is.

Is it really surprising that a corrupt, crazed dictator obsessed with popularity and surrounded by sycophants would go to war? Any justifications are after-the-fact, since nothing he does is ever thought out, and opponents find it easier to imagine an evil plan than to face reality

Openly and explicitly exactly. A lot of STEM brained people can’t imagine that visibly changing your whole thing to do whatever people say they want can’t isn’t the same thing as championing what people want

Every administrator, every board of trustees, every president, chancellor who bent the knee to Trump and his cronies should immediately be stripped of their position and driven from their institutions.

The world's richest man is broadcasting eliminationist rhetoric about a tiny, vulnerable minority, and virtually no one is going to treat it as a scandal. It's just normal now.

we need some way to get the harpers letter and entire “free speech” crowd cornered and on the record about this, i can’t deal with people being like “where are they now hmm” anymore, I need them cornered and on the record
