@POTUS Thank you, Mr. President. It’s an honor of a lifetime to lead the great warriors of the Navy and Marine Corps team. I’m grateful for your leadership and support as we continue to get after shipbuilding and ensure the defense of the homeland.
Law enforcement tried for years (decades) to combat cartels in Latin America, with limited success. But a larger cultural shift was needed to truly eliminate them.
That is why President Trump designated cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and created the Americas Counter Cartel Coalition (A3C), a military alliance with 19 members.
Narco terrorists have killed more Americans than ISIS and Al Qaeda. The War Department will work with A3C members to kill narcos and destroy their networks.
Senior officers deserve the best possible education: effective, unbiased & laser-focused on our core warfighting mission. 🇺🇸
@SecWar directed a Senior Service College Task Force to conduct a comprehensive review of @DeptofWar SSCs. Its mandate: ensure these institutions are anchored in military history, strategy, high standards, meritocracy & overall excellence.
That review is now complete.
Special thanks to @RobManess, @KurtSchlichter & Tom Anderson for answering the call to serve on this Task Force. Led by Dr. Maurice L. Todd—ASW(R), PhD, MA, MS & top 5% West Point graduate—they delivered critical recommendations to strengthen our SSCs & prepare our military leaders to achieve peace through strength.
Today's announcement represents an example of the evolution of how we partner with industry to expand the #ArsenalofFreedom, outpace emerging threats, and ensure the Warfighter never faces a fair fight.
@GD_OTS and @LockheedMartin have answered the call. We are cutting red tape, shortening timelines, and rapidly scaling our domestic manufacturing capacity to deliver advanced air and missile defense capabilities. https://t.co/eobj2AmZys…
For far too long, Washington talked about rebuilding the Defense Industrial Base. This is what rebuilding the Arsenal of Freedom looks like.
These 7-year agreements will triple PAC-3 production capacity and quadruple THAAD production capacity, giving industry the certainty to invest, expand, and deliver at scale.

Operation Southern Spear has disrupted trafficking networks, forced trafficker adaptations, removed dangerous narcoterrorists, and demonstrated that the United States will use EVERY lawful tool available to defend our Homeland and protect our communities https://t.co/pd0TPDOMsh

Publishing highly classified assessments from the Secretary’s orders book is a crime.
It’s a betrayal of the force.
And much of what they’re publishing is inaccurate.
Of course, we demand candid military advice. Non-concurs are standard. The Secretary sees them constantly. That’s how you run a real military.
We are in great shape around the world.
This story isn’t about readiness.
It’s TDS and PDS — they hate President Trump and Secretary Hegseth more than they love America.

Scaling directed energy capabilities is a critical technology area for the Department of War to protect the homeland and secure our southern border.
The Department is collaborating with industry partners to rapidly field low-cost, deep-magazine directed energy solutions to neutralize cartel drone threats.
The United States will continue to counter adversarial drone incursions with light-speed lethality. 🇺🇸
Narco terrorists use drones to smuggle drugs into our country and to surveil our soldiers conducting border security operations.
The War Department has directed energy weapons and we will use them to defeat cartel drones and defend our homeland. @DoWCTO
For the enemies of the United States, their end will not be cinematic. It will be swift.
America’s Arsenal of Freedom is overwhelmingly lethal and drone DOMINANT 🇺🇸
The Blockade and Operation Economic Outcast will crush the failing Iranian economy.
The USA has guided 130 millions barrels out over the past 14 days.
