@SenThomTillis@SecArmy You confirmed his nomination when you knew he was woefully unqualified. You voted for him anyway. This is on you and your MAGA party which is rotten from the inside out. You've created a government of incompetence and corruption.
I thank @SecArmy Dan Driscoll for his leadership to our Army and service to our country. Dan was the right man at the right moment to lead our Soldiers and Army civilians.
Our understanding and assumptions of warfare are being challenged in places like Ukraine and Iran, and Dan understands the old way of doing business no longer applies. He and General George began a transformative period of innovation in how we array our forces and equip our Soldiers. He challenged our legacy approach to manning and procurement. Most of all, he cared deeply about the men and women in our Army formations and quickly earned their respect.
If we had a @SecWar who maintained the same priorities and forward-thinking, he would be fighting to retain talented leaders like Dan and the many flag officers he has forced into retirement. Instead, he is creating a leadership void at the top of our military ranks.
I served on Senate Armed Services for 8 years and as chair or ranking member of the Personnel and Readiness subcommittee. I have never witnessed more inept management of the brave men and women who serve our country. He is intimidated by competence and retreats to ginning up culture wars instead of soberly attending to the vital work of our national defense and the health and well-being of our fighting force.
I urge the President to find a new leader at the Pentagon who will retain and empower our military talent rather than diminish it.

@HenryBrownMD @Acosta US has been ass whipped and manhandled for six months by Iran, 42% of missiles gone, a dozen+ servicemen killed, 700+ wounded, 160 girls dead, inflation rise, gas prices, US considered a paper tiger by the whole world, 100s of billions gone, strait closed. Accomplished? 🤡
@Osinttechnical Trump’s Iran strategy is the same as his Ukraine strategy is the same as his Israel strategy. 2 more weeks, declare breakthrough without explaining it, then 2 more weeks and hope people forget where you started.
The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
Entire news crew wiped out: 2 journalists + 2 cameramen.
Killed by Israel which has killed more journalists than died in WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Afghanistan & Yugoslavia combined.
The President sees a bad jobs report, and responds by getting rid of the person in charge of the statistics. This is how America becomes a third-rate country.
Millions without healthcare and food assistance.
Trillions added to the national debt.
All to fund tax cuts for billionaires that weren’t even asking for them.
Donald Trump’s bill is a betrayal to the American people.
Are we going to just accept that we now live in a country where the government’s anonymous security forces routinely abduct Americans?
This is insanity
BREAKING: The Roadless Rule was just rescinded — and most people don't even know what we're losing.
For over 20 years, this Clinton/Gore-era policy has quietly protected 58 MILLION acres of national forests in nearly every state. These untouched lands provide clean water, shelter endangered species, and preserve our last wild spaces.
The excuse? "Wildfire prevention." But here's the truth: roadless areas are actually 4x LESS likely to catch fire than areas with roads and logging, according to a 25-year study by The @Wilderness Society.
This isn't about safety — it's about opening pristine forests to logging companies. We're trading decades of conservation for corporate profits.
Our wild places don't have a voice. But we do. 🌲🌲🌲
Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch.
President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.
