Our Commander-in-Chief (today). He never stops working. He never backs down. He puts America First, always. Honored to serve him — and our great Warriors.
Under the leadership of Secretary Hegseth, we are growing our elite Special Tactics community.

.@SECWAR "There's a lot of things that have been said in the press that are NOT TRUE about the Department of War.
We haven't changed our posture in ANY WAY TOWARDS THE UKRAINIANS. Certainly, with things like interceptors—we want to make sure our guys have as many as possible as well...
Ultimately, the President wants to see peace—he believes that the killings should stop."

@SECWAR “During the height of the insurgencies in Iraq and Afghanistan, our troops faced an asymmetric threat from improvised explosive devices.
Moving at the speed of those conflicts, SNC rapidly developed lifesaving devices to counter and disable roadside bombs, scaling from early R&D to active production in just two years to deliver capabilities when our warfighters needed them most…
Many of our warriors came home because of the innovation championed by the people here today."

.@SECWAR “For too long, elites in both parties sat idly by and accepted a backwards status quo—but NOT PRESIDENT TRUMP.
He recognized that decline is, in fact, a choice—a choice that we must fundamentally reject.”

.@SECWAR "Our American warriors are second to none—the best in the world and the best of our country...
I just arrived back from a trip to @CENTCOM and got to meet with pilots and refuelers and maintainers—they're out there on the front lines, have been doing historic work in ensuring that Iran never has a nuclear weapon.
To look them in the eyes is to look the best of our country in the eyes."
