THREAD: My name is Chuck Nadd. I deployed twice to Afghanistan as a US Army Aviator. Last Wednesday, as the situation in Kabul was deteriorating, like so many other vets, I looked for ways to help. (1/16)

Well, we almost got @potus to say #beatnavy! #goarmy @realdonaldtrump @WestPoint_USMA

We have the greatest military in the world Great to meet these West Point cadets today - and face off in an impromptu push-up challenge I’m going to be sore for weeks

cnn.com/2026/01/13/us/… Imagine what we can be, if we only accept His grace.

Posters of President Nicolás Maduro are being torn down across Venezuela.

Must-watch… “They’re not just great Soldiers; they’re great human beings.” — @FrankLuntz

Fantastic news for America!

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

"A conservative could say something rather mild and they'll lose their life..." -- Charlie Kirk, May 26, 2021 In light of today's tragedy, we revisited the conversation I had with @charliekirk11 four years ago when he was our guest at @HarvardHBS's Free Enterprise Club. He knew the stakes. And he fought the fight for his beliefs regardless. That’s heroic. May God provide peace to his family.

Elevating excellence! So glad @SecDef is allowing the service academies to recognize world-class performance, even in the rare occasion it happens at the @NavalAcademy. Go Army! Beat Navy!

To the Ivory Tower AI Doomers, AI is anti-human and job destructive. That's their choice. Our experience is AI makes human taste and talent exponentially more valuable. We've watched AI unleash human agency and creativity. That's how you give the American worker superpowers, and that's why we created the American Tech Fellowship. You want to bet on the American worker? Arm them with AI and let them BUILD.

@Apple data point: today marks 5,090 days since August 24, 2011, which means that @tim_cook has now been at $AAPL longer than Steve Jobs was after his triumphant 1997 return! youtube.com/watch?v=IOs6hn…

@ssankar "The future doesn't belong to the fainthearted; it belongs to the brave." -- President Ronald Reagan

The AI revolution belongs to America, and to the American worker.

Who says @WestPoint_USMA and @NavalAcademy grads can't get along?! It was great to come together with US Senators @DaveMcCormickPA (USMA Class of 1987) and @ToddYoungIN (USNA Class of 1995), as @DaveGalluchPA (USNA 2012) and I build Fired Up PAC to encourage more military academy graduates to continue their public service in the halls of Congress! Though having @HungCao_VA (USNA 1996) join us meant the Army grads were outnumbered, I couldn't be more excited about the work ahead to promote our shared values of Duty, Honor, Country, and selfless sacrifice. Beat Navy! Life is Beautiful! firedupforamerica.com

Can you imagine a unified, patriotic reaction like this from the media in America in 2025? Watch how CBS News covered a military parade in Washington, D.C. in 1991. We live in a totally different country and media environment now.

Fumata bianca!

@elonmusk These cuts are great, @elonmusk, but how will we ensure such widespread waste doesn't happen again in the future?

Day or night, we own the fight. 📹 : GoArmy

Today marks the 9th anniversary of Justice Antonin Scalia’s passing. With his indefatigable commitment to constitutional originalism and textualism, Justice Scalia helped build what is the modern conservative legal movement. Thanks to him, we think about the law and the role of courts much differently than we did a generation ago. “They call it the living Constitution...I will call mine an enduring Constitution, one that doesn't change, one that has the force and the meaning today that it had when it was adopted. But the living Constitution, as I told you, is popular not only among lawyers, judges, and law professors, it has drifted down to the people.”

Our warrior ethos is clear: to fight and win. Hooah!
