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. army.mil/article-amp/29…

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.

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.

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. thehill.com/homenews/58540…

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. thehill.com/homenews/58540…

Congress is committed to delivering @POTUS’ peace through strength agenda.   But this year's historic defense budget won’t just invest in our military, it will send money straight back into American communities, creating new jobs, new factories, and new tech breakthroughs. We are rebuilding the #AmericanArsenal. Learn more: republican.senate.gov/americanarsena…

Thrilled to see the Navy’s FF(X) frigate program starting fast. FF(X) is a highly producible design with little risk. We’ll be able to build them very quickly. Containerized weapons will allow us to bring new munitions and payloads to bear much faster. As long as we don’t let gold-plated requirements stay in, we will look back on this program as a huge success in five years.
HII@WeAreHII

#ICYMI: The @USNavy has awarded HII’s #IngallsShipbuilding a $283M contract for lead yard support on the new FF(X) Frigate class. This allows Ingalls to begin long lead materials, advance design work and start pre-construction for the first ship. More: hii.com/news/hiis-inga…

I am grateful Congress had the chance to hear from His Majesty King Charles III. Through thick and thin, the United States and the United Kingdom have maintained our indispensable bond. We must continue to do so. As the King said, that begins with security. Together, we are investing more in defense, partnering on the AUKUS submarines, and standing alongside our NATO allies to deter the Axis of Aggressors.

The time is over for negotiations with Iran's regime. The radical successors of Khamenei can never be trusted to keep any promise or agreement. Our Commander-in-Chief should direct his skilled military leaders to finish destroying Iran’s conventional military capabilities and eliminating any last remnants of their nuclear program. This is the only way to ensure lasting stability in the region.

This week, I opposed the Democrat-led resolution to limit the president’s military options in Iran. Passing such a resolution now and curtailing the president’s military authority while so many of our service members remain engaged in the region would be dangerous. It would tie the commander-in-chief’s hands even as he works to eliminate the threat from Iran.

JDAM-Long Range is just another example of Republicans in Congress acting to push forward on low-cost munitions far faster than ever before. President Trump’s executive order on acquisition reform demands more from industry – I’m glad to see @BoeingDefense innovating in munitions.

Joint Direct Attack Munition Long Range (JDAM-LR): 🔸Payload: Up to 500 lb 🔸 Range: 300+NM with 500 lb warhead 🔸Onboard 1.5 kW generator 🔸 Compatible on all existing JDAM-integrated aircraft

I appreciate President Trump’s statement on Anthropic following @SusieWiles' meeting with the company about their new model, Claude Mythos. Anthropic has made this model available to the U.S. government ahead of public release. The President is absolutely right. AI is evolving too fast and is too important for us not to work together.
