AMERICA FIRST.

God Bless our great farmers and ranchers.

On Veterans Day, America pauses to honor the extraordinary men and women who have worn our nation’s uniform, answered the call of duty, and defended the precious gift of freedom.
For 250 years, generation after generation of American patriots have stepped forward, not for glory or recognition, but out of a profound love of country and a willingness to serve something greater than themselves.
From the battlefields of our Revolution to the farthest outposts of freedom today, our veterans have carried the hopes of a nation on their shoulders. Their courage has preserved our liberty, their sacrifices have secured our peace, and their devotion has helped make America a beacon of hope for the world.
To every veteran, and to every family who has shared in the sacrifice of service: Today, and every day, a grateful nation stands in your debt.
May we always be worthy of the freedom you defended.
God bless the United States of America! 🇺🇸
On Veterans Day we honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication of the brave men and women who have defended our freedom and protected the American way of life. Our Nation is forever grateful.
God bless America's veterans! 🇺🇸
Today, we honor the brave men and women who answered the call to serve, stood in defense of our nation, and sacrificed to protect the freedoms we hold dear.
To every American veteran: Your courage, sacrifice, and unwavering devotion to our country will never be forgotten.
From all of us at USDA, thank you for your service. God bless our veterans, and God bless America! 🇺🇸
#VeteransDay
On the eve of Veterans Day, the Trump Admin is united in honoring America’s veterans. Humbled to join @SecRollins and @SecVetAffairs today at USDA. The Trump SBA is putting veterans first by expanding opportunities,
from entrepreneurship to federal contracting.
Their service to America didn't end when they took off the uniform.
Today, we honored the veterans whose dedication, leadership, and sense of duty continue to strengthen our Department and the communities we serve.
We also took an important step to honor our fallen heroes, signing an MOU with the @DeptofWar to establish the Gold Star Trails Initiative.
Through this partnership, Gold Star Families will be able to nominate National Forest trails to be named or dedicated in honor of their loved ones who gave their lives defending our nation, creating lasting tributes for generations of Americans to remember their sacrifice.
Thank you to @SBA_Kelly , @SecVetAffairs, and @USW_PR_HONTata for joining us today and for your continued commitment to America's veterans and military families.
To every veteran, Gold Star Family, and military family: thank you. May God bless you and the country you have given so much to defend. 🇺🇸
America’s farmers need data they can trust. Today, I signed @USDA’s November Crop Production and World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates reports, which provide information on crop production, food supplies, and demand.
Through USDA’s Data Modernization Plan, we’re enhancing accuracy, making the process more transparent, and reducing unnecessary paperwork for farmers.
Here’s how:
🌾 Bringing in university experts to independently review how USDA produces its reports.
🌾 Partnering with @NASA to improve the data and technology we use.
🌾 Testing survey links sent by text and email to make it easier for farmers to respond.
🌾 Using AI to flag possible inconsistencies in reports before they’re published.
Better information. Less paperwork. Greater trust.
Secretary Hegseth is doing exactly what President Trump promised for the American people: putting AMERICA FIRST and Making our Military STRONG Again.
Our brave men and women in uniform deserve LEADERSHIP focused on defending our nation, not being dragged into political games.
Alongside @SecWar:
We will stand.
We will fight.
We will defend this republic.
.@SECWAR “In 250 years of our American republic, no Secretary of War or Secretary of Defense has ever been impeached for carrying out LAWFUL MILITARY OPERATIONS—NOT ONCE…
Not under Reagan in Lebanon. Not under Clinton in Kosovo. Not under Obama in Iraq or Syria. Not under Biden in Iraq or Syria. That is the STANDARD. The HISTORY is clear... and one disgruntled Congressman wants to shred it over policy disagreements.
That is what this is—Policy disagreements.
Not high crimes. Not misdemeanors. Not treason. Not bribery. Not the kind of offenses the Founders intended when they wrote the impeachment clause.”
Before TRUMP, our great American ranchers were being targeted by radical environmentalists in the federal government. Now, we’re putting RANCHERS FIRST.
Today, @USDA is building on our progress with revised regulations that support grazing on National Forest System lands and the ranching communities that depend on them. Farmers and ranchers belong at the center of the decisions in our country.
Thank you to @SecretaryBurgum and @Interior for standing with us and America’s ranchers.
Ranchers First. America First. 🇺🇸
America’s ranchers feed our families, care for our land, and keep rural communities strong. They deserve a government that works FOR them, not against them.
Today, @USDA is taking action to expand grazing opportunities, cut burdensome regulations, and give ranchers greater access to National Forest System lands. @forestservice
Building on our Grazing Action Plan, we’re making it easier for ranchers to do what they do best.
Thank you to @SecretaryBurgum and @Interior for standing with us in this effort.
Under @POTUS, we’re putting America’s ranchers FIRST. 🇺🇸
Less red tape. More flexibility for America's ranchers. 🇺🇸🐂
Today, @SecRollins and @SecretaryBurgum are announcing proposed updates to grazing regulations that would simplify permits on National Forest System lands and give ranchers greater certainty to plan their operations.
The proposal would also expand grazing flexibility and support opportunities for the next generation of ranchers.
Putting RANCHERS FIRST!

🚨 TUESDAY TAKEDOWN: STEAL SNAP. GET BUSTED.
More than $862,000 in SNAP benefits allegedly diverted—with some wired overseas to Ramallah in the West Bank.
Florida authorities arrested Anwar Jouda for allegedly using a stolen identity, forged documents, and fraudulent merchant accounts to redirect SNAP funds into accounts he controlled.
He now faces charges of grand theft, organized scheme to defraud, and criminal use of personal identification information.
These benefits are meant to help eligible American families put food on the table. Every dollar stolen is a dollar taken from those who need it.
@USDA will keep fighting to protect taxpayers and root out SNAP fraud.
Report suspected fraud: https://t.co/QuSzhWC8kZ
America’s veterans fought for our freedom. Now we’re fighting to help them build businesses, own farms, and provide for their families. 🇺🇸
Honored to join @VP, @SBA_Kelly, @SecVetAffairs, and 115 veteran small business owners for @SBAgov’s National Veterans Small Business Week kickoff.
Under @POTUS, @USDA is delivering real support: nearly $200 MILLION to help more than 550 veteran farming operations purchase and operate farms, and over $20 MILLION invested in veteran-owned businesses.
That support means jobs and opportunity. Our investment in veteran-owned Kansas City Cattle Company will help expand its storefront and sell beef directly to Americans, preserving seven jobs and creating six more.
We’re also bringing veterans onto our own team. Our “100 Hires in 100 Days” initiative hired 204 veterans—more than DOUBLE our goal.
God bless our veterans and the country they fought to defend!
A fourth-generation ranching family is facing a $267,540 fine and potentially more than $3.7 MILLION in compliance costs over livestock watering ponds.
Now, they’re fighting for their constitutional right to a jury trial — with a case that could reach the US Supreme Court.
THIS is why we launched @USDA’s Farmer and Rancher Freedom Framework.
No American farmer or rancher should have to risk losing their livelihood fighting to defend their property rights and due process.
I first met Wade and Teresa King last year, and we’ve been working with them ever since. In February, we welcomed them to Washington for the launch of our Freedom Framework, where they connected with @PacificLegal, which is now representing them in their legal fight.
We stood with the Kings then, and we stand with them NOW.
We will NEVER stop fighting to protect the property rights, freedoms, and livelihoods of the hardworking Americans who feed our nation. 🇺🇸
https://t.co/c7wMnOV7g6
Behind every headline is a fight for America’s farmers, ranchers, and hardworking families.
Twenty months of working around the clock. Real results under @POTUS. And a @USDA team that’s just getting started.
American agriculture FIRST.
Expanding markets.
Backing American meat processors.
Protecting livestock.
Fighting SNAP fraud.
Putting REAL FOOD first.
✅ Another big week of DELIVERING for America’s farmers, ranchers, rural communities, and families.

🇺🇸USDA UNSUNG HERO🇺🇸
One of the greatest parts of serving as Secretary of Agriculture is getting to know the incredible people who make @USDA so special. Across every agency and every corner of this Department are dedicated public servants who work tirelessly for America’s farmers, ranchers, and rural communities.
Today, I’m proud to recognize one of those unsung heroes: Steve Peterson, Associate Administrator of the Farm Service Agency.
For more than FOUR DECADES, Steve has devoted his career to American agriculture, helping turn major Presidential initiatives into real, meaningful assistance for the producers who need it most.
Known for being the first to arrive and the last to leave, Steve represents the very best of public service. His work ethic, institutional knowledge, and unwavering dedication have made a lasting impact on this Department and the people we serve.
Steve, THANK YOU for your decades of faithful service. People like you are the heart of USDA, and I am so grateful to have you on our team!
A true USDA UNSUNG HERO! 🇺🇸
Whatever lies ahead, we can face it with faith, knowing God is always by our side.
His strength never fails, His promises never change, and His presence never leaves us.
Proud to stand alongside @SecWar as he works tirelessly to strengthen our military, defend our homeland, and put America’s security FIRST.
At @USDA, we know that farm security is national security. Through our National Farm Security Action Plan, we’ve worked alongside @SecWar to protect American farmland from foreign adversaries, secure our food supply, and safeguard the farmers and ranchers who feed our nation.
Because farm security IS national security. 🇺🇸
Thank you, @SusieWiles47! From helping lead President Trump’s historic comeback to serving as the first woman White House Chief of Staff, you’ve led with kindness and resolve.
It has been a privilege to serve alongside you and I will never forget those early 2021 days when only a few of us were in the arena.
And speaking of just a few of us in the arena back then... Congratulations to @StephenM! You and Katie are true patriots. Excited to continue our work together on fraud, making school lunches healthy again, and bringing real prosperity back to rural America. No worthier causes than these and no better leader than you to make it so.
There’s more work ahead to deliver @POTUS’ America First agenda, and we’re ready.
Let’s get it done! 🇺🇸
Today is my last day as White House Chief of Staff.
Serving President Trump in the White House has been the honor of a lifetime. I’m so proud to have been a part of what we’ve accomplished together from securing our border and cutting taxes to strengthening our economy and putting America First.
More than anything, I’m grateful for the extraordinary people I’ve had the privilege of working alongside. While my role may be changing, my commitment to the President and the mission never will.
