Holy shit. I know people in that group. I'm kind of surprised it took them this long to do this. One of my buddies has been threatened with revocation of his benefits for past civil bdisobedience. I imagine the 50 or so that made it to the steps are in that position now.

I only watched ten or so minutes of the video, but I don't think a lot of people know what these veterans are risking to make this stand

I also know people in this group. JoJo, Naveed, etc. I've worked with them for years. I also know Jolly_Good_Ginger, in at least, that we've organized events together.

I've honestly been chickenshit and kept my head down despite invitations. I know how necessary these protests they are doing are, I've just not gotten to a place where I can join yet. I don't know if my friend who I mentioned was there, I didn't see him, but he's also not replying rn lol

Thank you for sharing this, I've spread it around locally
