Hegseth: "The mantra you would hear dripping from the lips of generals, with a serious look on their face was, 'our diversity is our strength' which is the single dumbest phrase in military history."
"Of course, our diversity is not our strength. Our unity is our strength."
@USAmbUN@michaelgwaltz It was great seeing you again. Thanks for honoring us with your presence during a very special evening. Keep up the great work out there.
An American Airlines flight departing the Los Angeles International Airport turned into an emotional tribute when crew members surprised a veteran returning from his first trip back to Vietnam decades after surviving years as a prisoner of war. Details: https://t.co/mBNagyS99H
Made it to Dallas! Just landed from Orlando not too long ago — now it’s time to hop on my second flight from Dallas to Anchorage, Alaska! 7 hrs. Thank you again to @AmericanAir for helping me get to AK and HI! I’m looking forward to meeting heroes in my last two states .
A huge thank you to American Airlines for sponsoring my tickets to Alaska and Hawaii! This Monday, I’ll be flying out to finish the final two states of my 50-State Veterans Tour. Thank you for helping me
in honoring those who served this beautiful country.
I also want to thank everyone who retweeted and shared my post—it truly helped get their attention. Special shoutout to Secretary of Transportation Mr. Duffy—your endorsement really pushed this over the line .
Because of all of you, this mission to honor our veterans, active-duty service members, and their families will now be completed in all 50 states. Together we are making a difference—one lawn at a time.

@iamrodneysmith, @AmericanAir is honored to help you complete your incredible mission of inspiring a new generation to think of others over themselves. Keep pushing!
We are moments away from the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy’s 89th commencement ceremony!
As the Secretary of Transportation, it is a privilege to have the Merchant Marine Academy under @USDOT. Let’s get the class of 2025 graduated!
