I have officially appointed @Dakota_Meyer to serve as my Senior Advisor for the Barracks Task Force. Dakota will represent my office at installations across the country—going directly to our warfighters, identifying what’s broken, and ensuring we FIX our barracks. Our warriors deserve nothing less.

I am praying for the people of Panama as they recover from the earthquake yesterday. Thanks to the expanded security cooperation between the Department of War and President @JoseRaulMulino, we immediately shifted military assets to assist Panama with humanitarian relief. The United States will continue to stand with our friends and partners in the Western Hemisphere.

And you — @CNN — fall for it over and over. Because you hate the President more than you love the country (and our troops).

Justice.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recommended — and President Donald J. Trump has approved — death by U.S. Army firing squad for convicted terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan, the jihadist who opened fire on unarmed American soldiers at Fort Hood in 2009. He killed 13 people and wounded 32 others while shouting “Allahu Akbar” during the attack. The Secretary of the Army will set the time and place of the execution. Judgement day for Hasan has finally come.
