    I wonder how many of them have called or written to their congressional reps to convince them not to support funding the war.

    Threatening to allow Trump to be president again is not how we should be protesting military aid. Our reps in congress are there specifically to speak on our behalf. We should be protesting outside their offices and threatening not to vote for them. They’re the ones who should be calling on Biden to sit down and discuss alternatives and should be drafting legislation to oppose him. They’re the ones who should be voting Nay on funding bills. But our government doesn’t function as it should so all we’ve got left is an aggressive and meaningless pissing match.
