DOD Rapid Response
@DODResponse
Welcome To The Official Rapid Response Account For The DOD! Supporting The Mission Of @SecDef And Fighting Against Fake News!🇺🇸
Governor, thugs took over your streets and were attacking federal agents… You did nothing to stop this madness, so we stepped in…. God bless our Marines and Guardsmen.
This sham deployment of the California National Guard is a massive waste of time and taxpayer money — costing the @DeptofDefense millions while pulling troops from real missions like fire response. @realDonaldTrump, end the militarization once and for all. Do the right thing.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi: "Our facilities have been damaged — seriously damaged ... The facilities have been destroyed."
No one at the Pentagon is asking for a blank check from our allies. Rather, the United States and our allies all benefit from a reasonable expectation of what contributions we can anticipate each other to make. 1/
The @DeptofDefense is proud to partner w/ DHS, ICE, CBP & DOJ to forge the MOST SECURE BORDER in American history.
Under the first six months of the Trump administration, we have: • RESTORED the warrior ethos. • REMOVED DEI from our ranks. • NATO allies committed to paying 5% of GDP toward defense. • HISTORIC recruiting in ALL BRANCHES. • Generational investment in the Golden Dome. •…

As Secretary Hegseth so well put it, his charge from President Trump is to strain every sinew to make sure our war fighters are as ready as they can be if called upon to fight for America. We are proud to support him in leaving no stone unturned to make sure that our men and…

America's sons and daughters who serve in our military deserve the best leaders. Which is why we are reforming the promotion system at DOD. @stuartscheller
Last night, @USMC & I had the honor of hosting the 29th @SecDef, The Honorable Pete Hegseth, during our Friday Evening Parade at @MBWDC. Your leadership within the @DeptofDefense ensures that our Corps remains postured as the Nation’s crisis response force—ready to fight & win.

. @SecDef “What we celebrate. What we recognize. What we spend time doing is a reflection of what we value. In a society full of social media clickbait and celebrity worship, I want my kids and our society to look up to these men and women in Marine Corps uniforms…”
. @SecDef “The Marine Corps in its 249th, soon to be 250th year, STILL SETS THE STANDARD IN A WAY EVERY MARINE SHOULD BE PROUD OF... and I say that as a soldier.”
Our @DeptofDefense will not hesitate to act — quickly. Common Sense. America First. Long Overdue!

To our warfighters, and the American taxpayers we will continue to deliver on our promise of transparency. This is what we did this week🇺🇸
Spot on Senator. Agree fully. Our team is already looking into this ASAP. Foreign engineers — from any country, including of course China — should NEVER be allowed to maintain or access DoD systems.
In light of recent and concerning reports about Microsoft using engineers in China to maintain DoD systems, I’ve asked @SecDef to look into the matter. We must guard against all threats within our military’s supply chain.
Fake News!
New U.S. assessment finds American strikes destroyed only one of three Iranian nuclear sites, five current and former U.S. officials familiar with the assessment tell @NBCNews. nbcnews.com/politics/natio…
False. The credibility of the Fake News Media is similar to that of the current state of the Iranian nuclear facilities: destroyed, in the dirt, and will take years to recover.
