More Americans died from drug overdoses in the last 7 years than U.S. military casualties in WW1, WW2, and Vietnam—combined.

Make no mistake, drug traffickers are bringing weapons in our communities, and they detonate every day.

@hughhewitt @SenateDems @realDonaldTrump @elonmusk @russvought Yes! https://t.co/C2finOPckY

How about we just shut it all down instead of getting a half-baked funding solution? Then @DOGE brings back staff to restore whatever is missing. I’d bet the bottom performers are not on the mission critical staff lists anyways. Keep the best and brightest.

[Erik S. Anderson @andersoneriks]

Put me in coach! @DOGE_DOD I’ll even voluntarily resign if I’m not adding value to the @DOGE mission. https://t.co/JVzZfoVSzb

[Pete Hegseth @PeteHegseth]

John is, of course, correct.

The @DeptofDefense does not do climate change crap.

We do training and warfighting.

Save money and cut duplicative efforts across services. Centralize DOD mishap & incident recovery. Keep warfighters focused on lethality with best and brightest gov civ support. @DOGE @elonmusk @PeteHegseth @DOGE_DOD

@SecDuffy @FAANews Like others here, I would encourage shifting age requirements to support a broader pool of candidates - veterans and GS staff with a high stress tolerance are available and willing to answer the call.

[Secretary of the Army @SecArmy]

I’m honored to serve as your 26th Secretary of the @USArmy. As a former Soldier myself, I intend to be the Soldiers’ Secretary. I understand it is the Soldier to whom our national defense and prosperity are entrusted. Soldiers and Families who sacrifice so much for this Nation are one of my top priorities, and my dedication to you will be unwavering. I am committed to ensuring the Army has the resources, leadership, and support it needs to remain the world’s premier lethal land fighting force.

A purple DOD is part of our path to efficiency. Bring the best of all of us together to drive change and eliminate waste.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Hundreds of federal workers are being promoted daily every time we encounter excellence. The @DOGE team will be more clear about this.

The goal is to make the federal government a meritocracy as much as possible.

[Erik S. Anderson @andersoneriks]

@elonmusk @DOGE I’m here for it

What a great video. I never saw this one before. 1960 Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra singing each other’s songs.

The "8 hours of sleep" rule is based on ZERO evidence.

Ancient humans slept in two distinct phases, not one long stretch.

Here's the shocking truth about how you should really be sleeping:

.@DOGE_DOD idea : Cut $200M+/yr in enviro costs. Consolidate all services EV staff to one OSD office. Smarter standards, retain talent, warfighters maintain focus on lethality with best and brightest civ support. America wins. @DOGE @PeteHegseth @elonmusk

[Erik S. Anderson @andersoneriks]

@KanekoaTheGreat @elonmusk I wonder how the tobacco industry influenced FDA and others… 🤔

[Erik S. Anderson @andersoneriks]

I get the blunt force appeal of lowering overhead through probationary dismissals, I think it is a temporary solution. When @DOGE overhauls the rules and gives leaders the ability to drop underperforming or wasteful staff - that will be some VERY meaningful change.
