We are disappointed that the U.N. Security Council has approved a slipshod Gaza “peace plan” that ignores the aspirations of people in Gaza — and is all but doomed to collapse.

After sending U.S. troops to occupy U.S. cities and murder people in the Caribbean, Trump now plans to sign them up to fight and die for a despot who waged a brutal war in Yemen and funneled billions to Trump’s friends and family.

Our statement on the Senate's failure to block the Trump administration's war plans for Venezuela in tonight's War Powers Resolution vote:

New reporting indicates that Trump is once again planning military strikes in Mexico to “combat drug cartels.” The truth is, U.S. strikes on Mexican cartels will only create human suffering and chaos. We know because we ran a tabletop exercise of this exact scenario.

More great work from @winwithoutwar.bsky.social and @vetsaboutface.bsky.social taskandpurpose.com/news/vet-gro...

Our new round of billboards are up, with a clear message: a murder that the president orders is still a murder. NotWhatISignedUpFor.org can connect servicemembers with resources to help them understand their choices in the face of patently illegal orders.

So… did anyone else finish A House of Dynamite and think, “Wait, how close are we to that actually happening?” 😬 Spoiler: closer than you think. In 101 days, the last treaty limiting U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons expires — and no one’s talking about it. We’re fixing that.

As I previously said, the Trump Administration’s actions in the Caribbean Sea are illegal and unconstitutional. Today’s military assault off of the coast of Venezuela is just the next in a series of criminal acts committed by President Trump and Secretary Hegseth.

Our ad in today’s Atlanta Journal-Constitution calls out Trump’s deadly hypocrisy: He weaponizes the overdose crisis to justify dropping bombs in the Caribbean, yet he’s also gutting the CDC – abandoning communities at home to promote violence abroad.

Our statement on last night's Senate vote to rubber-stamp President Trump's lawless Caribbean killings:

BREAKING: The post-10/7 wars have killed or injured at least 236,505 people in Gaza alone. The U.S. has spent over $31 billion and counting in the wider region since Oct. 7, 2023, where millions have been displaced, according to new Costs of War research. [THREAD] Photo Credit: Heidi Levine, 2025

Though nice to see Jon Finer and Philip Gordon catch up to bare minimum of where activists and the public have been for nearly two years on restricting US arms to the Israeli government, their article erases their own role in abetting the Netanyahu government’s genocide.

We strongly welcome @usprogressives.bsky.social’s decision to endorse the Block the Bombs Act, introduced by @ramirez.house.gov, which blocks the sale and transfer of a series of highly destructive weapons to the Israeli government: bsky.app/profile/uspr...

“The Trump administration has forced 35,000 troops into a role they did not sign up for: intimidating their own communities as pawns in Trump’s authoritarian power grab,” Sara Haghdoosti, the executive director of @winwithoutwar.bsky.social , told The Intercept.

Today, we’re expanding our NotWhatYouSignedUpFor.org campaign — which connects service members to resources for responding to unlawful and immoral orders — to two major active duty military installations: Fort Bragg and Camp Lejeune.

President Trump announced another two boat bombings in the Caribbean today. The U.S. military killed at least 3 more people in what amount to extrajudicial executions, done without oversight or approval from anyone but Trump himself. These deadly PR stunts cannot be allowed to continue.

Watch now as I'm joined by @winwithoutwar.bsky.social's @shaghdoosti.bsky.social to examine the potential consequences of #PresidentTrump sending troops to #Memphis, #Tennessee. We also analyze his administration's #ForeignPolicy with respect to #Ukraine, #Gaza and #Venezuela. youtu.be/VnUomfm95VQ

Watch Monday at 3pm ET as I'm joined by @aft.org President @rweingarten.bsky.social to discuss her new book, "Why #Fascists Fear #Teachers." Then, @winwithoutwar.bsky.social's @shaghdoosti.bsky.social examines #Trump's dangerous militarization of local law enforcement. youtu.be/94MA3xqRDEo

Agreed.

Donald Trump is abusing our troops with politicized domestic deployments that could expose them to legal and moral liability. That’s why we’re launching NotWhatYouSignedUpFor.org, our campaign to help service members understand their rights and options when faced with unlawful and immoral orders.

We and 36 other organizations today urged Congress to block Trump’s reported plans for unauthorized military strikes in Latin America. The strikes would be dangerous, illegal, and useless in stemming our synthetic drug crisis. Read more here: theintercept.com/2025/08/15/t...

“Whether it is assaulting immigrant communities or seizing control of law enforcement in DC, his goal for these deployments is the same: using state violence to strip power, safety, and dignity from people," said Sara Haghdoosti, the executive director of @winwithoutwar.bsky.social

Trump has ordered armed National Guard troops into Washington, D.C. and seized control of the Metropolitan Police Department. This is not about public safety — it’s a power grab, using our military and law enforcement as political weapons against our own communities.

80 years ago this week, two cities — Hiroshima and Nagasaki — were engulfed in nuclear fire. Hundreds of thousands were killed or sickened, their families forever scarred. As a new nuclear arms race looms, their stories are our warning — and our call to act.

Our statement on tonight’s JRD votes, in which 27 senators chose to stand against U.S. complicity in ongoing Israeli government atrocities in Gaza.

The journalists and filmmakers of No Other Land have shared that Awdah Hathleen, an activist and friend who helped make the film, was allegedly murdered by Yinon Levi, an extremist settler:

SNAP feeds 20M children each month and helps lift millions out of poverty, yet the government just voted to cut $300 BILLION from it. But while SNAP can take months to apply for, it takes the president just moments to launch a nuclear weapon capable of killing millions and devastating our planet.

80 years ago this week, the U.S. detonated the world’s first nuclear weapon. The Trinity Test created the first nuclear explosion, and with it the first victims of these apocalyptic weapons. Communities downwind of the test suffered from the radiation the test unleashed, and still do today. 🧵

It’s… TIIIIMMMEEE for Congress’s annual ritual of handing the Pentagon more money than it needs, wants, or can keep track of and directing it to do a bunch of things that, by and large, make us all less safe. A 🧵 on yesterday's #FY26NDAA House Armed Services Committee markup process:

Win Without War's Executive Director @shaghdoosti.bsky.social joined @pattivasquez.bsky.social on the eve of Independence Day to talk about U.S. foreign policy, the 2024 election, and widespread support among Americans for a future free of war. Listen here: omny.fm/shows/drivin...

With the U.S. pouring a trillion dollars into expanding its nuclear arsenal over the next decade, the world is closer to nuclear war than it's been in decades. David Cortright highlights the importance of our "healthcare not warfare" campaign in his new piece: www.thenation.com/article/worl...

Win Without War Executive Director @shaghdoosti.bsky.social joined the Ben Joravsky Show last week prior to U.S. strikes on Iran to give insight on why Trump's Iran policy won't work--and what the stakes are. Listen here: www.thebenjoravskyshow.com/sara-haghdoo...

Our ED, @shaghdoosti.bsky.social, on why members of Congress should stop their dangerous bigotry against Zohran Mamdani and focus on protecting their constituents from real threats -- like the bill they're currently considering that would strip health insurance from millions and supercharge ICE.

Our statement on today's War Powers Resolution vote:

Our Executive Director @shaghdoosti.bsky.social joined NPR's @michelekelemen.bsky.social on All Things Considered to discuss the consequences of the U.S. strikes on Iran. Listen here: www.npr.org/2025/06/24/n...

Sara Haghdoosti: Let me put this as clearly as I can, Donald Trump's reckless and illegal strikes over the weekend has made us less safe. The last few days have been terrifying but they've also been helpful. Why? Because the anti-war majority did show up. @winwithoutwar.bsky.social

Sara Haghdoosti: I have family in Iran and I can't begin to tell you how terrifying the last few days have been...And here's the thing -- it did not have to be this way! @shaghdoosti.bsky.social @winwithoutwar.bsky.social

Our statement on tonight's illegal and counterproductive airstrikes:

People across the country agree: No War with Iran

Local cops should never be hired muscle for ICE. If you live in North Carolina, sign this petition telling Gov. Stein to protect our immigrant neighbors and veto HB 318 and SB 153: actionnetwork.org/letters/take...

The human costs of Netanyahu’s war with Iran are already mounting. Over 200 people in Iran and over 20 in Israel have been killed already. 🧵

Thread from our Executive Director:

@SenAlexPadilla’s manhandling by Kristi Noem’s goons was shocking, and should be a wake up call for Congress.

Huge thanks to @ramirez.house.gov for leading the Block the Bombs Act with @sarajacobs.house.gov, @jayapal.house.gov, @pocan.house.gov, and others. Multiple admins have enabled Gaza's devastation. Congress must stop these sales and push to end this brutal war. bsky.app/profile/rami...
