To leak sensitive national defense information is to betray our warriors and put them in danger. That’s why the @DEPTOFWAR and @THEJUSTICEDEPT have created a joint task force to IDENTIFY AND PROSECUTE LEAKERS.

The United States stands with the people of Venezuela after yesterday’s devastating earthquakes. At President Trump’s direction, I immediately mobilized the War Department to work alongside the @StateDept to support the Venezuelan people. Our mission is clear: save lives and rapidly deliver critical aid where it is most needed. The United States is committed to our hemisphere. When the lives of our friends are on the line, America moves.

Get ready, America — we're putting our love of country on full display. Salute to America on July 4th in Washington, DC will mark 250 years of grit and glory with inspiring music and a record-breaking fireworks show. This is Freedom 250. May God bless our great republic. 🇺🇸🦅 Follow @freedom250 and get your FREE tickets:

Today, the first milestone test of Golden Dome for America (GDA) was a full mission success — and I was honored to witness it firsthand. Cutting edge directed energy was harnessed and the Dynamic Defense Autonomous Defeat (DDAD) system flawlessly and autonomously cued, targeted, and eliminated a multitude of incoming threats. This test was executed on schedule — and dynamically defeated every threat. I watched our elite warfighters integrate with next-generation technology to stop incoming drones and cruise missiles dead in their tracks. Traditional Primes and emerging Primes are competing, collaborating, and winning—delivering on President Trump’s priority. This historic milestone was only made possible by the One Big Beautiful Bill—giving us the funding to deliver on the ultimate shield to protect America. President Trump is making President Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) vision a reality. With Golden Dome, the War Department will defend our homeland more powerfully than ever before. Golden Dome is real, powerful, and on track.

Congratulations President-Elect @ABDELAESPRIELLA "El Tigre" on your historic victory in Colombia. We invite your incoming administration to work with the Department of War and the Americas Counter Cartel Coalition (A3C) to reinvigorate the military alliance between our two countries to end the production of deadly narcotics and eradicate the narco-terrorists that plague our hemisphere.

Department of War Restores U.S. Pacific Command Designation. CAMP H.M. SMITH, Hawaii — The Department of War announced today that the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) will officially restore its name to the U.S. Pacific Command (USPACOM). Originally established on January 1, 1947, by President Harry S. Truman, the command operated under the USPACOM banner for over 70 years, standing as the oldest and largest of the United States' unified combatant commands. Restoring the legacy USPACOM designation honors the command’s deep historical roots, fostering a sense of pride and collective spirit among all who serve in the Pacific. From its critical role in establishing the post-WWII regional security architecture to its coordination of joint forces during the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and countless humanitarian operations, the USPACOM namesake carries decades of military heritage and enduring regional partnerships. USPACOM’s vast area of responsibility—spanning from the waters off the West Coast of the United States to the western border of India—remains exactly the same. The command's fundamental mission and its unwavering commitment to maintaining a free and open theater alongside regional allies and partners are unchanged.

Excellent meeting yesterday with @DanielNoboaOk to discuss our robust bilateral defense relationship and the joint fight against narcoterrorists.  Ecuador is a strong A3C partner and is advancing vital efforts to dismantle narcoterrorists.

Yesterday, I welcomed Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto to the Pentagon. We reaffirmed the strength of the bilateral defense relationship between the United States and Italy and agreed on the urgent need for NATO allies to increase defense spending, expand defense industrial production, and field combat-credible military forces.
