Each day I have the privilege of serving the United States of America, I’m reminded that there are patriots who made the ultimate sacrifice and never had the chance to come home and continue that service themselves. This Memorial Day, may we honor the men and women who gave their lives in defense of our free nation. God bless each of them, and the families who carry their memory forward.

These images are from an FBI 302 interview documenting a first-hand account from a senior U.S. intelligence official who reported witnessing unexplained aerial activity near a U.S. military facility. The account is further supported by additional witness reporting and sensor data.

This month at MITRE, I met with private sector leaders to discuss the emerging technologies that will define the future of critical infrastructure and national security. Preserving America's advantage will require strong collaboration with industry and focused investment in new capabilities.

In just one year, @POTUS Donald J. Trump has restored American sovereignty, launched a new era of economic prosperity for American workers and businesses, and cemented his legacy as The President of Peace by standing up for American interests around the world. As we start a new year and begin the countdown to @America250, I’m honored to say that I’ve served the President at the @WhiteHouse since Day One of his second Administration. President Trump is putting AMERICA FIRST—and the best is yet to come!

President @realDonaldTrump is extraordinarily generous in recognizing the contributions of his staff & team to the success of his administration. This fact is not widely reported by the mainstream media b/c it doesn’t fit their negative narrative. S is in the same mode. Good men!

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena.

As President Trump said, Diwali is a timeless reminder of light’s victory over darkness. Thank you so much to the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum for the opportunity to provide remarks at a wonderful Diwali celebration this evening in DC. @WhiteHouse @PMOIndia @marcorubio @USAndIndia @IndianEmbassyUS @AmbVMKwatra

Was honored to attend the swearing-in last week at the White House of my friend and former National Security Council colleague (from President Trump’s first term), Aaron Lukas, as the Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence. Aaron will be a champion for transparency, operational efficiency and meaningful reform as our nation’s second highest ranking official in the Intelligence Community. #publicservice #nationalsecurity

Having been with President Trump from the start—from Bedminster in 2014 to the Oval Office in 2025—I have witnessed his unwavering commitment to putting America first.

In just two short months, President Trump has strengthened our nation on the world stage, instilling fear in our adversaries and restoring realism to U.S. foreign policy.

I saw his dedication to standing up for the United States during his first term, serving as NSC Director for Russia and helping sanction the malign Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Now, I’m proud to carry that mission forward in the Indo-Pacific as Special Assistant to the President and NSC Senior Director for South and Central Asia. It is an honor to fight every day for U.S. interests in this vital region.

As his last act as mayor of Stockton, Kevin Lincoln has presented the Gill family with a Key to the City award. Drs. Jasbir and Param Gill are pioneering physicians and business leaders who embody the American Dream and the spirit of Stockton. @kcranews @KevinLincolnCD9

Thanks to @DailyCaller for including my perspective as a former NSC official. @VP has articulated positions against merit-based university admissions and helped post bail for lawless rioters. These stances harm all of society and do not reflect the values of Indian-Americans.

[Reagan Reese @reaganreese_]

VP Harris, with an Indian mother and black Jamaican father, has long been touted for breaking glass ceilings. But some Indian-Americans told @DailyCaller they feel Harris’ Indian identity is only highlighted when it’s “convenient."

My latest article explores the pressing need for a strategy on Russia's #Arctic expansion. This week's #NATOSummit in Washington presents an opportunity for the Alliance to strengthen its stance in the High North. #EnergySecurity @AtlanticCouncil

@damienics “Gonna Fly Now” is iconic. A fixture on my workout playlist.

@LombardiHimself Yep. And unlike JFK and DFW, passengers don’t need to rely on airport trams to transfer between terminals.

[Ricky Gill @RickyGillCA]

@RLHeinrichs Another key question: why did the Deputy SecDef not inquire as to the condition/status of the Secretary when she was advised to be ready to assume his responsibilities? Wouldn’t that curiosity be natural in these circumstances, or is this instead a case of conscious avoidance?

@esaagar Budapest is one of my favorite cities in Europe. The view from Matthias Church overlooking the Danube and the rest of the City is stunning.

@MikeSilver, great to meet you on the flight from Denver to Sacramento. Much respect for the consistent Cal paraphernalia. Go Bears and Go Niners!

@JoshuaSteinman Absolutely concur on the need for new water filters, especially in the EEOB. It’s key for workforce health and longevity. We can be better at asset management from a real property perspective across the USG.

@damienics Took pre-wedding photos at Filoli in September. It’s idyllic, and the room where the bilateral meetings are occurring usually boasts a piano. Like others, I would dispute that it’s “down by Stanford” :-)
