Bring our service women and men home from the border right now, before Thanksgiving!

I've called my Congressman and BOTH Senators, I've also called my Senator-Elect-Kyrsten Sinema! Our troops have been put through hell after the last 18 years! They've missed enough holidays away from their family, it's our job to protect them at this time, there is no reason that they're on the border for this fucking shit-show, awaiting the "caravan."

Set aside my anger for the laziness of the current president; that he couldn't bother to get his toupee wet on Veterans Day! We owe it to our service members to do better. This is the least that we can do for them!

This is outrageous! I apologize to my fellow DU'ers for my language, I am just trying to focus my anger and support! My family has served this great nation in the armed services for at least 5 generations!

Bring our servicewomen and men home from the border right now and stop using them as electoral pawns!
