I’m thrilled to join the Veterans Community Project STL Capital Campaign Committee to raise the funds to build out @vcp_stlouis providing transitional housing and supportive services to homeless veterans in the STL region. They have dramatically improved the lives of veterans. Image
I’ve been a fan for years.
When @JasonKander & @KellynSloan joined the team in 2019 to lead their national expansion I promised to help. After moving home to STL 2 yrs later I’m proud to fulfill that promise finally. Support their mission & learn more at veteranscommunityproject.org
If you want to see the progress, the village and outreach center are just north of the North Grand and Cass Ave intersection. I was out in August and it’s come a long way since. We will be welcoming the first veterans and outreach clients early next year! Let’s get it done! ImageImage
If you or your organization would like to learn more about the wide range of sponsorships and gifts that are available to finish this important effort please DM me and I’m happy to chat. There is so much to do and #StLouis leaders can make it happen! Image

The thing about Musk saying he’ll restore banned accounts is atleast 2 or more that I reported were dedicated to doxxing and attacking me and my family including my kids and their places of employment. They terrorized my family off of Twitter. This isn’t about free speech.
Even if I quit this platform these anonymous monsters can use it to harm my family in the real world because they don’t like my politics or opinions. This isn’t a joke. He will never suffer at all. He just has to unleash the beasts and it’s up to us to protect our families.
Have you ever called law enforcement about doxxing or online threats? It’s a joke. Local police have not clue. Feds deny it’s their jobs. Your only recourse was begging Twitter or FB to take down the threats. Now the owner of this one is gleefully unleashing the mob.

Look, they are just full of shit. This is about political payback against the Democrats and preventing a win. Their plan was to pull this game and deploy their lies and propagandists like usual but they miscalculated them fury of veterans groups.
For the last 6 years they’ve been able do whatever they wanted against our community. Trump would say he doesn’t like people who were captured and then hump the flag and all was forgotten. The Veterans Service Orgs would quietly eat it because they didn’t want to lose access.
The Big 6 groups are full of members who LOVE all of it. They were in a rock and a hard place. Then we get to the PACT Act. Vietnam vets dying of Agent Orange. Desert Storm vets of Gulf War Syndrome. GWOT vets from bizarre cancers from burn pits. All generations sick and dying.

The AR-15 is not a hunting rifle. It obliterates the meat and shatters bones. Whatever it hits suffers. She is an idiot. Once again she isn’t in Georgia. Too busy being a troll to visit her district. Image
Here’s what they don’t want to talk about. npr.org/2022/05/27/110…
Or the victims in Buffalo of a kid who bought his weapons to hunt black Americans. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/c…

Washington U. in St. Louis is the top school in the state with one of the best medical schools in the country. Why would an OB/GYN, fertility specialist or many others want to practice, learn, or teach in a state that will throw you in jail for doing your duty as a physician?
I was an operations and planning officer in the Army for most of my career. I lived and breathed envisioning the second and third order effects of decisions we made in combat. I don’t believe for a moment that after all these years of assault on women’s health any of them..
understand the destruction they wrought on their lives, health, economies, and so much more. The fascist Hawley is happy that progressives may leave MO. When women start dying of preventable illnesses and the economy collapses as businesses flee I wonder if he’ll feel any guilt?

My group @BeerHallProject did a video with Edward Norton using news footage of January 6th and historic video of the Beer Hall Putsch and Twitter has slapped a "sensitive content" filter on it in spite of repeated appeals that it's public news video. 1/
Eric Greitens straight up puts out a video demonstrating how he and his militia buddies are going to kill political opponents and so far it's just a big yawn from @Twitter and the other social platforms. The heads of the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys are in jail for violence. 2/
At some point we take threats of political violence seriously when members of the January 6th Committee are getting real death threats against their family members. When white supremacist groups are attacking LGTBQ events. When we are in real danger. Put your foot down now. 3/

I raised 4 kids and taught all of them how to drive cars. My refrain was always the same. It's a deadly weapon. I know this because I lost my first wife and child in a car accident. I made sure they were trained, licensed, and insured to manage this machine that can kill.
But anyone can literally just go buy an actual deadly weapon and all that's needed to slaughter dozens at a time with no training, no license, no insurance, and not even a record of the purchase. How does that make any sense at all? We have entire systems to deal with driving.
From government agencies that certify and license...to an insurance system...to training programs in schools to make sure we safely operate deadly weapons with engines in them. Yet, we have literally millions of deadly weapons in our society without the slightest oversight.
