The attempt by Chairman Bost to bully the #VFW into silencing their protest over veteran benefits is a disgraceful assault on the First Amendment by our own government. Politicians love to wrap themselves in the flag, but the moment they face stinging satire from the heroes who actually defended it, they cry "incitement" to shield themselves from accountability. Using bureaucratic power to police political expression is the hallmark of a regime that fears the truth, and the VFW is right to refuse to back down. We must always defend the right to use sharp language and imagery to expose the cronies in Washington—if you can’t handle the heat of honest protest, stay out of the Capitol. #FirstAmendment #VFW #FreeSpeech #HonorTheContract #SpeakTruthToPower. https://www.armytimes.com/veterans/2026/07/06/vfw-defends-first-amendment-rights-amid-blowback-over-political-cartoon/
