I was proud to swear in Dr. Erica Schwartz as Director of @CDCgov.

Dr. Schwartz brings decades of experience as a physician, public health leader, and public servant. Together, we will restore public trust, strengthen CDC’s core mission, and hold the agency to the highest standards of scientific integrity and transparency.

Congratulations, Dr. Schwartz. Let’s get to work and Make America Healthy Again.

[Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47]

.@SecMullinDHS: "13,000 individuals since January 20 were released after ICE tried to put detainers on them — and they were put back on the streets."

"Kathy" Hochul is SICK!

DEPUTY SECRETARY LANDAU: There hadn’t been a lot of attention to the Western Hemisphere, and I think President Trump and Secretary Rubio have been determined to change that.

[Trump War Room @TrumpWarRoom]

.@SecScottBessent on socialists in America: "When we look at the demographic of those voters, they are overeducated and underearning. These are underachievers who are jealous of those who want to go and work every day."

Just touched down in Venezuela.

President Trump’s energy diplomacy is delivering results—advancing new energy deals, opening the door for American companies, and strengthening energy security across our hemisphere.

[HHS Rapid Response @HHSResponse]

.@SecKennedy: “When we lose touch with the outdoors and with nature, we lose part of our capacity to sense the divine, to understand God, and to understand our own potential as human beings. It is a tragedy to deprive ourselves of those experiences — but it is a sin to deprive our children of them. We have a responsibility, as parents and as a government health agency, to do everything we can to get our children back outside and experiencing the world again.”

[Sen. Marsha Blackburn @MarshaBlackburn]

.@Meta’s settlement is only a first step. They admitted platforms need safety by design, but a 10-year deal isn’t enough.
