Watch our latest episode of PLAN V-TV on the F-35 right here.

Not even the Pentagon and the Department of Defense like the F-35 joint strike fighter, which is FOUR times as loud as the current F-16, and has its fair share of high profile supporters, most notably Senator Patrick Leahy, “credited” with pushing the DOD to base the F-35 in Burlington, Senator Bernie Sanders, Congressman Peter Welch, Burlington Mayor Miro Weinberger, and Governor Phil Scott.

Take note, citizen voters. Here’s a photo of our elected officials cheerleading for the F-35.

Why in Ethan Allen’s name are we “basing” the most expensive, most ear-splitting, least tested Pentagon project in history in a 3 city residential neighborhood as a “pilot project” for the US of Empire?

#Insanity.

Meanwhile, former Air Force Colonel and retired nun Roseanne Greco co-leads the “Keep Vermont F-35 Free” fight, calling “bullshit” on the “more jobs and pro-Vermont Guard mission” nonsense that characterizes supporters of the F-35’s flimsy arguments in favor.

SaveOurSkiesVT, and long live our 2nd Vermont Republic.
