Reposted by Colleen Moore (she/her)Cluster Munition Coalition @banclusterbombs.bsky.social · 17/03/2026We agree, General. Cluster munitions are inherently indiscriminate, which is why 112 countries have banned them under the Convention on Cluster Munitions. The US has not joined. Neither have Iran or Israel. We urge all three governments to act on these words and join the ban. 024

Reposted by Colleen Moore (she/her)Senate Budget Committee @senatebudget.bsky.social · 24/02/2026Trump and Hegseth can’t even justify their $1.5 TRILLION defense budget ask—a staggering $500 BILLION INCREASE.
