Cheers to all the veterans out there for being willing to sacrifice so much for this great country.

This is such horseshit.

I'm also pretty over this Administration's shameless exploitation of the ever-widening military-civilian divide.

NEW: The Defense Department has designated its press office a classified space and banned journalists from accessing it to meet with the public affairs officers who have traditionally answered their questions, people familiar with the issue tell The Washington Post's @ScottNover.

[Sarah Blake Morgan @StorytellerSBM]

If you’re looking for a storyteller who can actually make people give a damn, we should talk.

I’m transitioning off active-duty this summer - and looking to find my next big thing.

Jaslow: I really empathize with those who have to serve under poor leadership right now—whether that’s the commander-in-chief or the secretary of defense.

There seems to be a lot of theater and posturing that might make them feel the power of the positions they’re in, but it’s coming at the expense of real people who are risking their lives.

And you also have family members here at home who are concerned about those service members and want them to be serving under steady leadership—who want clarity on the mission and why they are being asked to sacrifice so much.

And I don’t know that we’re getting that right now.

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

What I wish this message articulated was WHY we moved from a mission of deterrence to active combat.

That's not just helpful for buy-in from the American public, but for the troops that are asked to carry out orders of their Commander-in-Chief.

[Dan Lamothe @DanLamothe]

Adm. Brad Cooper, the top U.S. military officer at @CENTCOM, sent this message to the roughly 50,000 U.S. troops directly involved in operations against Iran, I'm told.

What a badass. Look at the female pilot who was just shot down by friendly fire, ejected, and is still smiling and unshaken.

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

Before having to ‘Charlie Mike’ or continue the mission.

You don’t get to attend the funeral. You don’t have time to get your questions answered about the circumstance around their loss. You just have to Charlie Mike.

Please keep them in your thoughts too.

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

My heart doesn't just break for their families, but those who served alongside of the fallen.

It's difficult to experience loss while deployed.

Not just because you can love your battle buddies as much as your family. But because you get all of one day to grieve.

New: The strike yesterday in Kuwait that has now claimed the lives of six US service members was a direct hit on a makeshift operations center — in what was described as a triple wide trailer — at the port of Shuaiba, a source familiar said. The strike came so quickly there were no sirens or warning to allow troops to evacuate to a bunker ahead of time.

Thinking of them and their loved ones.

Somewhere in America right now, the next of kin of three servicemembers are receiving a knock on their front door from a casualty assistance officer and a chaplain who are about to notify them that their loved one is no longer with us.

Keep them in your thoughts, please.

[U.S. Central Command @CENTCOM]

CENTCOM Update

TAMPA, Fla. – As of 9:30 am ET, March 1, three U.S. service members have been killed in action and five are seriously wounded as part of Operation Epic Fury.

Several others sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions — and are in the process of being returned to duty. Major combat operations continue and our response effort is ongoing.

The situation is fluid, so out of respect for the families, we will withhold additional information, including the identities of our fallen warriors, until 24 hours after next of kin have been notified.

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

And it's now up to Congress to make sure we’re doing so.

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

Nothing is more important following last night’s attack on Iran than keeping our servicemembers and their families who are sacrificing alongside them in our thoughts.

The partisan posturing that is taking place by those looking to score points in this moment...

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

We live in a dangerous world, and military action will be needed at times to keep us safe. But there will always be collateral damage, and for that reason we must be judicious about how we wage acts of war, even when the threats are clear and the danger is great.

6/

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

Not only to understand why the action was believed to be imperative, but as to where we go from here and to what extent the lives of our men and uniform will be risked and to achieve what objectives.

Tomorrow is the final day of early voting in North Carolina for the March 3rd primary, and the LAST DAY you can register same-day.

Don't know where your closest early voting site is? You can find it here: https://t.co/eCdRVLavvt

You have until 3PM this Saturday to vote early!

[Allison Jaslow 🇺🇸 @jaslow]

The last time the President addressed Congress, I testified earlier that day at hearing earlier that day before the Veterans Affairs Committees.

I showed up that day for the post-9/11 generation of veterans, but do you know who did not?

Hell ya, I'll be very engaged.

I was lucky enough to make it back from the Iraq War, but I happen to know Americans who didn't.

The country they died for deserves better leadership than it has right now, and I'm ready to do something to change that.

[Andrew Bates @AndrewBatesNC]

.@jaslow to @AaronParnas: "I testified before Congress...on behalf of the post 9/11 generation of veterans. And my opponent in this race, @GregMurphyMD, didn't even show up to that hearing. I have a track record of showing up" and will be "very engaged" in Congress. #ncpol #NC3
