How about a good candidate to run against @RepThomasMassie of KY04? 1 of only 3 to vote against the Stolen Valor Act, the only person in Congress to support guns undetectable to TSA scanners,
doesn’t believe in climate change, wants to abolish the Ed Dept & the EPA, the only Rep to vote against sanctions on N Korea & Iran, chair of #2A Caucus. It’s a rural/suburban district, so how about a primary challenge?

U.S. defense spending may now exceed that of the next 13 nations combined. To protect us from – Russia? No, tRump is Putin’s best friend, and he’s withdrawing troops from Europe. China? Only if they are foolish enough to attack Taiwan.

No, the main purpose of the Pentagon is to feed the military-industrial complex, which contribute to political campaigns. At a time of massive budget deficits, massive unemployment (and increased unemployment benefits expiring) and a pandemic which remains unaddressed.

Congress is about to pass its annual Defense appropriation, increasing the massive waste even more. The bloated $741B Pentagon spending bill includes $140B in Procurement, $16B for a nuclear weapons binge, and $15B for the Star Force.

Congress is about to pass Defense bill which includes $3.8B in Israeli military aid, which is used in part to subjugate and colonize Palestine.

For Resisters who are afraid to support Palestinian rights for fear of appearing anti-Semitic, almost half the Jews in Congress are in favor of Palestinian rights, and against Israeli settlements & annexation in Palestine. So are the vast majority of American Jews.

J Street is a Jewish pro-Israel pro-peace org. J Street supports a two-state solution.
