This morning, I released a significant defense investment proposal.

Read my plan that would rebuild the U.S. military and defense industrial base for a generation:

Congratulations to PM @narendramodi on becoming India’s longest-serving Prime Minister. As the world’s largest democracy, India is a critical partner in a free and open Indo-Pacific. Mississippi values our strong U.S.-India partnership.

@SenatorWicker, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said he would support Trump abandoning diplomatic talks with Iran and resuming military operations.

Congratulations to the Armenian people who voted yesterday to re-elect Prime Minister Pashinyan. I look forward to continuing to work with Mr. Pashinyan and his government to deepen the relationship between our countries and support Armenians as they strengthen their democracy, pursue peace with their neighbors, and reject Russian coercion.

Today, Senate Republicans voted to secure the southern border, pay border patrol agents, and enforce legal immigration. Ensuring our law enforcement has the resources to keep the homeland safe is critical to U.S. national security.

Congratulations to Pearl River Community College women's softball team on their first national championship in program history! @PRCCathletics has made Mississippi proud!

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

The rumored 60-day ceasefire — with the belief that Iran will ever engage in good faith — would be a disaster. Everything accomplished by Operation Epic Fury would be for naught!

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

We are at a moment that will define President Trump’s legacy.

His instincts have been to finish the job he started in Iran, but he is being ill advised to pursue a deal that would not be worth the paper it is written on. Our commander-in-chief needs to allow America's skilled armed forces to finish the destruction of Iran's conventional military capabilities and reopen the strait.

Further pursuit of an agreement with Iran's Islamist regime risks a perception of weakness. We must finish what we started. It is past time for action.

I've met with some of the worst guys on Earth - but Xi Jinping is without a doubt the coldest and most ruthless leader I've encountered.

We should be under no illusions about his malign intentions toward the US or any power that challenges him on the world stage.

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

At today's @SASCGOP hearing, @CENTCOM Commander Admiral Cooper highlighted the stunning success of Operation Epic Fury.

- Reduced Iran's defense industrial base by 90%.
- Degraded Iran's ballistic missile and drone capabilities.
- Destroyed Iran's navy for a generation.
- Eliminated Iran's resources to support terrorist proxies.

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

We were glad to welcome South Korean Minister of National Defense Ahn Gyu-back to the Senate this week. We discussed the importance of strengthening deterrence against North Korean aggression, cooperation on nuclear powered submarines, and a conditions-based approach to the transition of operational control of the Combined Forces Command. The U.S.-ROK alliance is one of the strongest in the world — and we're committed to keeping it that way.

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

Mr. President, you have been generously patient with the murderous Iranian Islamist regime. Now, let's get back to business. Restart Project Freedom.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

"I have just read the response from Iran’s so-called 'Representatives.' I don’t like it — TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! Thank you for your attention to this matter." -President DONALD J. TRUMP

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

When a gunman opened fire near the Washington Monument Monday, Mississippi National Guardsmen ran toward danger. They backed up law enforcement, helped secure the scene, and made sure an injured civilian was treated. Our nation is grateful for these heroes. These are Mississippi's finest, and they make our state proud.

Gayle and I are thinking of everyone impacted by the storms. My staff has been in active engagement with @FEMA and @MSEMA. We are determined to see this through.

We urge Mississippians to take full advantage of shelters, county emergency management officials, and other @MSEMA resources and guidance.

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

Grateful to see @SecWar prioritizing Gold Star families and moving forward with the Gold Star Advisory Council. These families have given everything for our nation, and they deserve the best support we can provide.

[Secretary of War Pete Hegseth @SecWar]

Today, I was honored to host the Gold Star Advisory Council.

We remain steadfast in honoring the memory of our fallen service members and ensuring their families are never forgotten or left behind.

[Senator Roger Wicker @SenatorWicker]

Mississippi storm victims: be aware of scammers who are trying to charge money to fill out disaster-related paperwork. This is a FREE service offered by the government.

If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact my office or MEMA directly.

[msema @MSEMA]

We’ve received reports of people charging storm victims $150 to complete their FEMA and SBA Assistance applications. No one from FEMA, SBA or MEMA will charge you to fill out paperwork. Avoid being scammed by going to our MEMA WEBSITE for all you need to know.

[Sen. Dan Sullivan @SenDanSullivan]

We must improve our ability to produce weapons and protect ourselves NOW—not once the bullets start flying.

Rebuilding the American Arsenal will not only strengthen our military, but it will also create good-paying jobs and revitalize our manufacturing economy.

[Senator Kevin Cramer @SenKevinCramer]

The U.S. is facing the most dangerous threat landscape since WWII. And @SASCGOP Chairman @SenatorWicker is exactly right, Americans don’t back down. We build, we innovate, and we persevere. We’re rebuilding our arsenal the right way: powered by American industry and built to defend our freedom.
