🧵🚨USCIS sent notices today to over 5,000 Afghan parolees who have only filed a Form I-131 re-parole application or haven’t filed any applications (I-589 asylum or I-485 green card) since entering the U.S. If you received this email -- yes the notices are real.

Two years ago, we got the PACT Act done when nobody said we could. Why? Because it was the # 1 priority for veterans and their families. Now we need to do the same with my Major Richard Star Act—the top legislative issue for veterans and VSOs. Our combat-injured vets can't wait.

🧵 @AfghanEvac has built lasting and meaningful relationships with the The White House, Department of State, and more. This thread will explain what we talked about & how we’ve built those relationships over the last three years, all in service to helping our Afghan allies and friends.

**135** women have now earned their Ranger tab. I'm old enough to remember when people questioned whether it could be done. armytimes.com/news/your-army…

It happened again. I went to get my doggy a rotisserie chicken and I ended up eating most of it in my Jeep, so had to go back in and get another one.

Just got my autographed copy of Canyon of Hope by my good friend Eric Donoho, retired Army Sergeant, Iraq Veteran, Purple Heart recipient, & fellow #PACTAct advocate. Inspirational story of strength & resilience following his transition home. A must read! a.co/d/6dtyCK2

If you film yourself reading someone’s DD-214 and state words to the effect of, “You served in Afghanistan and Iraq but are not a combat vet because {INSERT REASON I PULLED OUT OF MY ASS}, I’m just going to assume you’re a dipshit and move on. This bullshit only hurts vets.

Watching the drama of the veteran community on Twitter go crazy, this is your annual reminder that as a veteran you can get free lifetime access to all federal recreation sites for the pass holder and occupants of a single, private non-commercial vehicle. Adios Grand Tetons!

Waning hours of summer at the neighborhood pool club. A little quite with AMP gone to college and no Porter girls in the pool.

Some good context and a thread here by Dan Lamothe. Feel free to ask an Afghanistan veteran if you're forming opinions and you weren't there.

In case you missed it on #LaborDay -- VETS_DOL job training efforts focus not only on recently separated troops but also mid-career vets looking to make a change: militarytimes.com/education-tran…

Good article with Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman on servicemember quality of life. This underscores the importance of our work at Blue Star Families 🇺🇸. (For the record, I never wore dual polo shirts, but yes on the popped collar) militarytimes.com/news/your-mili…

Eric Donoho is someone I hold in the highest regard — and if you know me, you know there are no empty platitudes in that statement. He served this country as a Scout Sniper in war zones, a profession that requires immense premeditation, discipline, and the ability to endure

Happy Friday Annandale High School friends. Looks like Fairview elementary has the spirit in support of military families. Would be great if #AtomNation and the rest of Fairfax Schools 🌟 did the same! facebook.com/FairviewESfcps…

What's the best way to follow up last night's first Swifty NFL game of the season? My kid singing the National Anthem at the first Annandale High School football game of the year! #AtomNation
