.@POTUS "All they do is they talk about impeaching everybody. Honestly, if we wanted to play that game, we could play it just as well... They're talking about Pete Hegseth—HE'S A GREAT WARRIOR. I think he's the best at his job in many, many years."

The Department of War has zero tolerance for the intentional, unauthorized disclosure of classified information. Anyone who compromises sensitive national security information puts the lives of our Warriors at risk and undermines every military operation that keeps our country safe. Following an extensive Air Force OSI investigation, the Department took necessary personnel action to protect sensitive information. To protect the integrity of the investigation, no further comment will be made regarding the individual or the circumstances of this action. This matter, along with others, have been referred to the Justice Department for potential further legal action. Classified information is not personal property. Leaking it for personal, political or professional gain is a betrayal of the trust placed in those responsible for keeping it. Our commitment was not an empty promise. We vowed to find you, and we meant it.

.@SECWAR “Earlier this year, at the Shangri-La Dialogue, I described a vision on behalf of President Trump of a more stable, secure, and prosperous Pacific. It’s a vision based on STRENGTH—built not on wishful thinking, but on the backs of strong, self-reliant nations. Nations capable of defending their own sovereignty and contributing to a favorable balance of power that benefits us all. The approach we are taking can be described as strong, quiet, and clear.”

I met with Japan’s Minister of Defense Shinjirō Koizumi @shinjirokoiz to advance our shared vision of peace through strength. Our strategic alignment is essential to building a credible denial defense—supported by increased investment, greater access, more realistic training, and stronger production of the munitions our forces need.
