MY FELLOW AMERICANS,
THIS MOMENT IN HISTORY DEMANDS BOTH PRECISION AND RESOLVE.
THE PRESIDENT HAS DONE WHAT NO LEADER BEFORE HIM COULD ACCOMPLISH.
THIS OPERATION WAS THE GREATEST AND MOST SUCCESSFUL MILITARY STRIKE IN THE HISTORY OF WARFARE.
AMERICA MOVED WITH UNMATCHED SPEED, POWER, AND CLARITY TO REMOVE A CALIPHATE OF HORROR THAT HAS NOT ONLY SPILLED THE BLOOD OF THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN SERVICE MEMBERS AND CIVILIANS, BUT HAS CAUSED SUFFERING AND DEATH FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS, IF NOT MILLIONS, OF PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD.
WE MUST NEVER FORGET THE SCALE OF THIS EVIL, NOR THE COST OF LETTING IT GO UNCHALLENGED BY PRIOR ADMINISTRATIONS.
THAT COST WAS PAID IN BLOOD, IN TEARS, AND IN LIVES UNNECESSARILY LOST.
TODAY WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AMERICA DID SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
WE HAVE THE BEST MILITARY THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN.
THERE IS NO FORCE LIKE THE UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES.
NO NATION HAS THIS CAPACITY, THIS TRAINING, THIS DISCIPLINE, OR THIS RESOLVE.
WHEN EVIL CAME INTO FOCUS, AMERICA RESPONDED, AND THE WORLD WATCHED.
I WANT TO THANK THE SECRETARY OF WAR AND EVERY MAN AND WOMAN IN OUR ARMED FORCES.
YOU CAME, YOU EXECUTED, YOU SACRIFICED, AND YOU ACCOMPLISHED THE MISSION.
YOU REPRESENT THE HIGHEST IDEALS OF THIS REPUBLIC, AND FOR THAT, ALL AMERICANS ARE INDEBTED TO YOU.
AMERICA IS MORE THAN A GEOGRAPHIC PLACE.
AMERICA IS MORE THAN A WORD OR A POLITICAL LABEL.
AMERICA IS THE HEARTBEAT OF EVERY CITIZEN OF THE FREEST COUNTRY ON EARTH.
IT IS A BEATING FORCE COMPELLED TO DO THE RIGHT THING IN THE FACE OF EVIL, NO MATTER THE COST.
THAT IS WHO WE ARE AND ALSO WHAT MAKES US GREAT.
TODAY WE STAND UNITED WITH THE PRESIDENT, UNITED WITH OUR MILITARY, AND UNITED IN PRINCIPLE.
AMERICA DEFENDS FREEDOM.
AMERICA DOES WHAT IS RIGHT.
AND AMERICA WILL NEVER BACK DOWN.
GOD BLESS AMERICA,
-ROBERT ZIMMERMAN, JR. 🇺🇸

Facts don’t work on people who already made up their mind
The president offered multiple off ramps, but was very clear throughout this process: the drug trafficking must stop, and the stolen oil must be returned to the United States. Maduro is the newest person to find out that President Trump means what he says.
Kudos to our brave special operators who pulled off a truly impressive operation.
#Israel authorities’ plans for legislation that would impose mandatory death sentences exclusively on Palestinians under certain circumstances fly in the face of international law. They are discriminatory and they violate international humanitarian law norms. We urge the authorities to drop these proposals.
