The Atlantic story is completely false. Absolutely lacks merit. I’ve been by the President’s side. He has always shown the highest respect to our active duty troops and veterans with utmost respect paid to those who have given the ultimate sacrifice and those wounded in battle.
It’s daylight in Kiev. President Zelenskyy remains visible in his Capitol. He rejects US offer to evacuate. Says “I need ammunition, not a ride”. You have to admire a fighting leader. 🇺🇸🇺🇦👍
Governor Walz, this is now personal. My youngest son, daughter, and son-in-law served in combat in Afghanistan. Some of our greatest young men and women have died fighting for our nation in Afghanistan. You have stolen their legacy. Shame on you.
I was at Arlington. President Trump honored those who fell at Abbey Gate. Harris was absent both last week and at the dignified transfer at Dover AFB three years ago. These Gold Star families know who respects their loss.
So privileged to be with President Trump as he honored the Abby Gate 13 at Arlington National Cemetery this morning. They fell in honor, for us. Remember them.
The story about the President disparaging Vietnam Vets is garbage. I am a two tour Vietnam Vet and have been with the President since 2015. He has NEVER said anything like this. He admires and loves the military. His first MOH approval was for a Vietnam Vet.
@Acosta
Jim,
That is garbage. I was sitting with him at Mar-A-Lago watch party along with others until he retired to his living quarters. He was fine. He talked to press early on and circulated the MAL Ball Room as well. Why don't you name the "Advisor"?
19 years ago, I was in the Pentagon. The world changed that day. Today I am honored to be with
@VP
as we pay tribute to the 2,977 heroes we lost that day.
#NeverForget

Saying I was “encouraging people to march on the Capitol” is blatantly false and slanderous. I was standing my post. NSA was out of town, and DNSA was off that morning. It was policy to have a senior national security figure with POTUS at all times. That was me.
It was my hope
After Pence’s former national security adviser Keith Kellogg endorsed Trump and said Pence lacked “decisive leadership” — which Trump touted — Marc Short reads an email Kellogg sent him on Jan. 6 and says Kellogg was “encouraging people to march on the Capitol.”
This is my President. Shannon Kent exemplifies the best of us.
“Trump came to Dover after my wife was killed fighting ISIS. He absolutely respects our service.”
@joekent16jan19
I will comment. America lost 13 of its finest military men and women in the attack at Abby Gate during the disastrous withdrawal. VP Kamala Harris did not even attend the Dignified Transfer at Dover AFB when our fallen returned home, with honor, to America
To those we have lost. At the going down of the Sun we will remember them. A duty of a Commander in Chief. A promise from those who have fought. Three years ago this day 13 American heroes gave their lives at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan. Today they were honored at Arlington.
I have been under fire many times. It reveals your real character-when the President stood up with blood streaming and fist pumped and said "fight", it revealed his. 🇺🇸
A statement from those who really count. Harris was missing in action, Trump was not. The Abbey Gate 13 are American fallen who sacrificed for Nation. Honor them. He did.
Rather than read NPR, here's what the Gold Star families who were with Donald Trump at Arlington National Cemetery yesterday had to say about his visit--which they invited him to
Remember their names. Three years ago today they died at Abby Gate in Afghanistan fighting for America, fighting for you. They were Marines, soldier and sailor's of America. Heading to Arlington National Cemetery now with Pres Trump to honor them.
NEW!
"General Keith Kellogg’s book is a true and insightful record of our incredibly successful four years. It is a truly accurate account of my Presidency and brings to full light what my Administration accomplished in the face of constant attacks from mainstream media...

@realdonaldtrump
to preserve America and keep her great. 🇺🇸
In a White House statement on the phone call between Biden and Netanyahu, Biden demanded an immediate cease fire by Israel. Biden has made a choice. He supports not an ally, but Hamas, a terrorist organization that murdered, raped, mutilated civilians to include Americans on 7
A gentle reminder to the Pentagon. The SecDef is one of the two National Command Authorities. The other being the President. Believe it appropriate the American people are told when one of the two NSA's are hospitalized.
To be clear on 6 Jan/NG. Pg 199 of my book, "On 3 Jan the President asked the Def Dept to deploy NG troops" into DC for J6 contingencies. OK for J6 Cmte to publicly release my full sworn testimony. Release Army Guard and DC Mayor J6 testimonies as well. Would be illuminating.
Let us all pause for one minute and reflect/pray/remember those wonderful Americans we lost at Abby Gate in HKIA/Afghanistan one year ago today. Our Nation is safe because of heroes like those we lost-God Bless them. 🇺🇸
On CNN, Sen.
@marcorubio
acknowledges spy balloons have been seen before but says one flying this brazenly over the continental US and sensitive areas is “unprecedented.” “We have never seen this…There is no comparison to anything that may have happened up to this point.”
Hersh Goldberg-Polin. Remember his name. An American hostage murdered by Hamas. Trump in his 2020 SOTU, "If you attack our citizens, you forfeit your life." While Biden sits on a beach and Harris is MIA, America has a clear choice: commitment and resolve or chaos and weakness.
Israel, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates are choosing cooperation over conflict.
Friendship over enmity.
Prosperity over poverty.
Hope over despair.
Proud of POTUS for standing up for Stars and Stripes. I’ve read it all-around the world, from Vietnam to Iraq. Their reporting brings a bit of home to service members serving far from those they love.
The United States of America will NOT be cutting funding to

Thanks to

@OutnumberedFNC
for having me on. Great coverage by Fox. Gaza will be a tough fight for the IDF but they will get it done-no pause, no truce-allow the Israelis to complete the task of eliminating Hamas. Israel thinks of this fight in biblical terms.
VA Secretary reversed course. Photo not banned. Now Mr Secretary, call in the person who thought the ban was a good idea and talk accountability for the initial action. There are a great many nouns and verbs available for you to use when discussing with your team
Regarding 6 January and for the record. I was privileged to know USSS Special Agent in Charge Tony Ornato. Like all USSS Agents, he was highly professional, circumspect in everyday action and trusted. I would take his sworn testimony to the bank.
At reception for 80th Anniversary of D-Day in Normandy, France with 5 other former and current Commander(s) of the 82d Airborne Division. 80 years ago the 82d led the D-Day invasion by parachute assault hours before the beach landings began. Airborne, All The Way.
Their lack of coverage is an insult to those who willingly go in harms way to defend our Nation. Everyone who works at those networks should be ashamed. Those 13 men/women who lost their lives at Abbey Gate during the Afghan W/D debacle are owed recognition for their sacrifice.
CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, & NBC did not spend ONE second covering the heartbreaking testimony from Gold Star families who lost loved ones in Biden’s horrific Afghanistan withdrawal.
The legacy media is truly disgusting.
Protecting Biden is their only goal.
So appreciate
@kayleighmcenany
for having me on
@OutnumberedFNC
at such a critical time. The brutal Hamas terrorist attack on men, women and children should have the world stand together in outrage. If it does not, it has forgotten the moral imperative of "never again".
“We have allowed a culture of accepting mediocrity to fill the void where a culture of winning used to exist. Within our military, many seem to have fallen prey to the idea that holding someone accountable is the same thing as attacking them personally.”
Whelp…first time since 1778 that France recalled its Ambassador to the United States. No coordination on the US-UK-Aussie submarine deal that cost France billions and embarrassed President Macron. Glad the “adults are back in the room”.
In 2016, I was proud to sign my name beside 87 other retired Generals & Admirals endorsing candidate Trump. In 2020, there are 317 supporting President Trump for re-election.
Pres Biden-my father fought fascism in WWII. I have fought for this Nation in far flung lands multiple times-as has my wife, son, daughter, son in law. I am a MAGA Trump Republican. Tonight you denigrated my Service and love of Nation. How dare you! From tonight-game on. 🇺🇸
Wonderful presentation by Governor Noem. She is standing up to China by stopping China's buying of South Dakota Agricultural land-she is fighting for America.

Lieutenant Governor Elect Winsome Sears: "There are some who want to divide us and we must not let that happen. They would like us to believe we are back in 1963 when my father came...In case you haven’t noticed, I am black, and I have been black all my life."
I watched the Trump Team work this daily. The President was involved, so was the Vice-President, NSA, SecState, SecDef, CJCS-the whole National Security Team. Truly “one team, one fight”. There was a plan, it would have worked…because of hands on leadership from the top down.
We were working hard to put an orderly transition in place and to ensure the Afghans have peace & reconciliation. I met with the Taliban to deliver that. We had real American leadership, and I regret we’re not in that place today.

this morning. Thanks for allowing me to discuss Monday's ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery with President Trump as those America lost at Abbey Gate were remembered and honored by him.
Not surprised at all. This is the person (Pres DJT/45) that I have been privileged to know since 2015 and all of the White House years. He is of the people, by the people and for the people. For those who do not like him-sorry-but this is the DJT I know-and you don't.
Just hours after being arrested in Washington D.C., Donald Trump decides to crash a wedding at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J.
This is Trump’s way of giving a massive ‘F*** you’ to the Washington Uniparty, Biden DOJ and the media that are all trying to imprison him because he
So it began one year ago today. Presidential Decision Making does count-a lot. The withdrawal debacle was preventable-we now live with the global consequences of our hasty retreat.
On this Memorial Day take a moment to say a silent prayer for the generations of fallen who gave their last full measure of devotion for you, me, this Country. To the fallen-we have the watch now. You and your sacrifice are not forgotten.
Reminder - Robert Gates, Secretary of Defense who served with Biden and saw his leadership daily: “Biden has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.”
America is safer & more secure with President Trump
Why military sedition as an issue is important. General Milley’s role is Principal Military Advisor to the President, Secretary of Defense and National Security Council. He has no command authority. Combatant Commanders (4 stars) report to the Civilian Secretary of Defense.

I’ve voted absentee most of my life due to military service. To say it’s “shocking” for the DOJ to release a statement over potential issues with military ballots is what we would call a ‘dereliction of duty’. Do your job.
Hi everyone this is a total of 9 ballots in a single county. Trump won this county overwhelmingly in 2016, so that the 9 (NINE) ballots were cast for him isn't shocking.
That the DOJ is releasing a press release over 9 ballots is, however, shocking.

A revealing chart. Am in full support of Ukraine and their courageous fight against Russia's invasion. But, we cannot put this heavy monetary burden primarily on the back of US taxpayers. Europe/NATO needs to heavily support as well.

@AmericaRpts
for having me with you. The concern is we, the U.S, have little leverage in the Middle East. Our credibility is not high-nor is respect. At Arlington those lost at Abbey Gate were honored by President Trump. The Gold Star families know it.
If what Jen correctly rpts as to numbers of ballistic missiles fired, it was a massive complex attack by Iran. Do not be lulled by limited damage rpts. Avoidance of massive damage was significant. Drones carry 100 lb warheads. Ballistic missiles carry up to 4000 lb warheads.
Senior admin official: USS Carney and Arleigh Burke shot down 4-6 ballistic missiles from Eastern Mediterranean. US Patriot missile battery shot down ballistic missile near Erbil. Rest of 100 Iranian ballistic missiles were shot down by Israel’s Arrow 2 and 3 missile defense
As someone who was in the White House all four years in the Trump Administration, Dan is correct. The Administration was under devious political assault before we even entered the White House. Lives were ruined. Good people were hurt. Read the Durham report-then ask "why".

This latest DOJ Jack Smith 6 Jan indictment of DJT/45 by a biased DC Grand Jury is how a thuggish and repressive State acts-not a Constitutional Republic. Recall Ben Franklin's words-we gave you a Republic, if you can keep it. Trump 2024-and we keep it. 🇺🇸
As night fell on 10 Sept 22 years ago the Twin Towers still stood. The next morning I was in the Pentagon's Natl Military Command Center as this Nation was under attack. Sitting next to the SecDef I remarked as the first Tower fell, "Today the world just changed". Never forget!
Our President and Vice President will never leave an American behind. They believe in strength through peace but never forget - come for us and we will come twice as hard for you
Last night, our Country’s brave warriors rescued an American hostage in Nigeria. Our Nation salutes the courageous soldiers behind the daring nighttime rescue operation and celebrates the safe return of yet another American citizen!

Today we lost an American hero. MG Gary Harrell passed. The word came that "el Lobo (the wolf) was down". A Special Ops/Delta Force Warrior who fought wherever America sent him from Mogadishu to Afghanistan. I will miss him. America will as well. 🇺🇸
Thanks
@LisaMarieBoothe
for having me on. This is an existential fight for Israel against Hamas, a terrorist organization which killed 31 Americans on 7 Oct. We should not be pushing Israel to agree to a long term cease fire which is inimical to their national security.
.
@generalkellogg
: “They, Hamas, are being supported actually, indirectly by the United States, in the sense that we are pushing Israel to come up with a pause, which is going to a ceasefire or an armistice long-term, which I think is a huge mistake. They should let Israel finish
This is absolutel garbage. It IS accurate to say Pres Trump deterred the Russians. I was on several phone calls between DJT and Putin. Note Putin didn't invade UKR under 45 watch.
@AmbJohnBolton
was on calls too -he knows better. This is bluster and bs for clicks & attention.
John Bolton pushes back on Newsmax host: "[Trump] barely knew where Ukraine was...It's just not accurate to say that Trump's behavior somehow deterred the Russians"
I think President Trump leading the effort to invest billions in a vaccine in record time speaks for itself. He’s been remarkably consistent unlike others who go where the wind blows. Look forward to seeing you on Brian Stelter.
Of course VP Harris was wrong to express skepticism in a “Trump” vaccine. But 2 things can be true at once - Trump hasn’t (until this past week) used his platform in any major way to encourage trust in the vaccine. But of course you know this.
It is “banana republic” kind of leadership and is cause for censure and dismissal. This should matter regardless of political affiliation. It is wrong.

@marklevinshow
for having me on for such a wide ranging discussion. Attaching just a piece of it. Strong Presidential leadership does matter. American security demands it.
Of course the spy balloon was transmitting information back to China. The sensor package it carried was as large as a school bus. Anyone, in any leadership position, was either being professionally stupid or deliberately misinformed the American people.
On 9/17, Gen. Milley insisted the spy balloon didn’t collect any intel.
Biden admin officials have said the same.
Now, nearly a year after the incident, NBC learns that the balloon used a U.S. telecom network to “send burst transmissions, or high-bandwidth collections of data
Thank you
@ErinTobin21
for your leadership in South Dakota! Legislation to secure American land from the CCP passed in the Senate Ag committee UNANIMOUSLY!
Military Service Chiefs (4 stars) like Army report to Senate confirmed Civilian Secretaries. No one in the Military Services or a Combatant Command report to Milley. For him to, apparently, try and influence any decision making is a usurpation of Civilian control of the military
General Lindsay's passing is an incredible loss. Long considered the Godfather of the American Airborne, I was so very privileged to serve under his command in the 82d Airborne Division. He truly led "from the front". His stories are legend.
It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the passing of Gen. James J. Lindsay, the first commander of USSOCOM. He was a distinguished combat leader,
recognized multiple times for his bravery and leadership on the battlefield, and earned our Nation’s second highest honor for valor,

. Biden-Harris did not start from scratch. We were doing over a million vaccine shots before they entered office.
President Trump pushed NATO members to meet their treaty obligations under the 2014 Wales Summit and increase military expenditures to 2% GDP. We spend 3.5%. I’m glad Chancellor Scholz has come around to this during a crisis. Welcome back Germany.
This is what great Commander in Chiefs do. They realize the effects of war. They recognize the valor and sacrifice of those put in harms way. It is worth a read.

for an in-depth conversation on today’s most pressing issues. Tune in!
I’ve now seen countless videos like this from Walz — it is the implication he makes. Walz knows exactly what he is doing, and his deception alone is a disservice to men and women in uniform.
Two possibilities after numerous former Trump officials deny knowledge of prior overflights:
1.) The DOD is lying.
2.) These did happen and the information was withheld from 45 and senior admin officials.
Raises disturbing questions.
The Office of the Secretary of Defense has informed my office that several Chinese balloon incidents have happened in the past few years - including over FLorida.
Why weren’t they shot down?
Why Not. Come on Alyssa. You know better. Good start is for Harris to say she was wrong in VP debate in SLC when she denigrated Trump/Warp Speed efforts to move towards a vaccine. How much damage did her comments do to public confidence? Let’s begin there. Then move forward.
Our nation should be able to set aside politics for a millisecond to come together around the common good. I’d love to see VP Harris appear alongside former VP Pence to share the safety & efficacy of the vaccine! Why not?
This is why she was a GREAT First Lady. Tough, fearless yet compassionate. In crisis, character comes to the front. President Trump
@realDonaldTrump
showed the world that yesterday and the First Lady
@MELANIATRUMP

All a bit raw but there needs to be a complete review of defense/military decision making of past 20 years in Afghanistan. A lot of senior officers (read as 3 and 4 Stars) had it wrong. After 20 years, tragic loss of life, Billions of dollars spent.
