As the sun rises this Memorial Day, we pause to reflect on the courage, bravery and selfless dedication of the heroes who gave their lives in service to our nation. We are forever grateful for their sacrifice.

#OTD 228 years ago in 1798, the U.S. Congress established the Department of the Navy to create a dedicated executive department focused on naval affairs, responding to threats like the Quasi-War with France and the Barbary Pirates off the coast of Africa.
This historic move ensured expert leadership and oversight for all naval operations. It also marked the year the Continental Marines, originally formed in 1775 and disbanded in 1783, were re-established as the United States Marine Corps and placed under the Navy's jurisdiction, solidifying the enduring partnership between the two.
For 228 years, this collaboration has been crucial in ensuring the Marine Corps is the first to fight. It has facilitated the training, equipping, and maintaining of combat-ready forces, continually embodied by the powerful synergy between the Navy and Marine Corps team. Happy 228th Anniversary to the U.S. Department of the Navy!

Today, I announced major actions against Southeast Asian scam centers defrauding Americans.
Today’s actions:
• 2 Chinese nationals charged
• Telegram channel used to lure victims shut down
• 503 scam websites seized
• $700M+ in illicit crypto restrained
These networks have stolen billions from Americans.
Under President Trump’s leadership, these operations are being disrupted and the crackdown is just beginning.
Antoine Moses, a 23-year-old tree planter from Quebec, Canada set a new world record by planting 23,060 trees in 24 hours. He’s a real environmentalist, rather than those idiots who block motorways and spill milk in supermarkets.
