[Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar @DepSec_Edgar]

Honored to speak at the Law Enforcement Partners Council meeting in Los Angeles about the vital role of our local law enforcement in the Homeland Security Task Force.

This collaboration is essential for information sharing, problem solving, and elevating threats from local field offices to national leadership.

Thanks to @POTUS, @SecMullinDHS, and @DAGToddBlanche, #HSTF is harnessing federal, state, and local partnerships for the largest campaign against transnational crime in U.S. history.

[Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar @DepSec_Edgar]

Under @POTUS, @DHSgov, @TheJusticeDept, @HSI_HQ, @FBI, and @DEAHQ, the Homeland Security Task Force is taking the fight to criminal networks and safeguarding communities across America! Since launch, HSTF partners have executed thousands of operations, effected 7,987 arrests, seized nearly 321 metric tons of drugs, 8,481 weapons, and $15.7 billion in currency, arrested over 400 for human trafficking and human smuggling, and apprehended over 4,000 cartel members. Our decisive actions are securing the border and dismantling criminal organizations nationwide. #HSTF @HSTFNCC

Happy Birthday, America! 🇺🇸

[Dan Sullivan @DanSullivan_AK]

It was an honor to serve our country in uniform. And it's an honor to fight for Alaska in the U.S. Senate.

[Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar @DepSec_Edgar]

Enjoyed my interview with @mjkeegandc on @BusOfGovernment Hour Podcast on @FederalNewsNet.

We explored the role of Deputy Secretary at @DHSGov. I share how we are implementing @POTUS's and @SecMullinDHS's policy priorities: Securing the Border, Deportations, Accountability, and keeping Americans safe. Thank you, Michael, for the opportunity! https://t.co/gNdVB6MycG

[Secretary Markwayne Mullin @SecMullinDHS]

Being a husband and a father of six great kids has been the joy of my life.

I wouldn’t be the man I am today without my father, Jim, who taught us the importance of putting God and family first. Happy Father’s Day to the fathers, grandfathers, and father-figures across America.

[Troy Edgar @Troy_Edgar]

Happy Birthday President Trump!! It’s an honor to serve at @DHSgov with @SecMullinDHS. I wish you the very best today. I’m looking forward to the @UFC250sol event tonight.

[Secretary Markwayne Mullin @SecMullinDHS]

Happy Birthday, Mr. President. 🇺🇸

It’s the honor of my lifetime to serve in your cabinet and lead @DHSgov as we mark 250 years of the greatest nation in the world. God bless America!

[Troy Edgar @Troy_Edgar]

Congratulations @KatieMiller and @StephenM !!!!

[CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott @CBPCommissioner]

Well it is about time!  Thank you!

The border doesn't shut down when Washington plays politics.

Cartels don't stop operating because Congress is playing politics.

And Border Patrol agents don't stop showing up when democrats threaten the funding they depend on.

This bill provides the resources, technology, and certainty needed to keep securing America's borders.

A stronger Border Patrol means a more secure border.

A more secure border means a safer America.

"We are super excited. We are going to have 5 to 7 million visitors. We are going to show the best of America. We expect to have safe games." @SecMullinDHS

Today, I had the privilege of joining @POTUS Trump at the @USCGAcademy graduation as we paid tribute to the 2026 class of cadets.

These men and women are heroically answering the call to service to defend and protect our homeland and our freedoms.

May God bless them as they faithfully serve our nation.

Thanks again President @realdonaldtrump for the nomination this week to be the U.S. Ambassador to El Salvador. I am also very grateful for the support below by @elsalvador President @nayibbukele!!

[Senator Ashley Moody @SenAshleyMoody]

The Sunshine State leads the way!

What a great time today at the Army Navy game with @Sec_Noem. Go @USNavy !!!

[Special Envoy Kristi Noem @EnvoyNoem]

I had an awesome afternoon attending the 126th Army–Navy Game with my family!

Every man on that field has answered the call to serve our country. 🇺🇸

Thank you to these brave men.

[Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar @DepSec_Edgar]

To my fellow veterans, especially those now at @DHSgov, thank you for your service and sacrifice to our country. America is an exceptional nation, and it’s because of men and women like you that make it so. It was an honor to attend the wreath laying ceremony with President Trump at Arlington National Cemetery today. Happy Veterans Day!

[Troy Edgar @Troy_Edgar]

Thanks again @Sec_Noem for giving me an opportunity to represent @DHSgov. A very special day and time to reflect and appreciate our special Veterans!!!

I commend @SecDuffy for shining a spotlight on this outrage. According to DOT findings, California has potentially issued tens of thousands of commercial driver’s licenses to illegal aliens. The residents of California deserve safe roads and responsible policies that prioritize their well-being.

This was a very moving exhibit and showed how conditions can change immediately.

[Deputy Secretary Troy Edgar @DepSec_Edgar]

Today marks two years since the horrific terror attacks on October 7th, the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

In July, I had the opportunity to visit the @novaexhibition in D.C. to meet with survivors and see firsthand the scale of the devastation. We must never forget these atrocities and never again allow such evil to triumph.
