Shared my thoughts with Voice of America on a second Trump Administration’s potential approach to the Korean Peninsula. #Korea #IndoPacific voanews.com/a/trump-s-poss…

You know, I can pretty tough on our allies. But I always try to focus my tough remarks on changing their foreign or defense policy behavior. I deeply believe we are all in danger and need to change our behavior to address that. That requires sharpness. 1/

Quote: 'President Biden boasts that he’s leading a U.S. manufacturing comeback. But manufacturing has added a mere 20,000 jobs over the last year. That’s a fraction of the number in healthcare (765,000), government (618,000) and social assistance (257,000) wsj.com/articles/gover…

CCP infiltration of our society is a real threat. Beijing seldom passes up opportunities to sow division and promote anti-American propaganda.

The PRC’s behavior in the South China Sea is beyond irresponsible, it is reckless. The U.S. must send a clear message that we will aid our allies in protecting their maritime territory.

In the event of a Taiwan conflict, we should not expect material ROK contributions to defense of Taiwan. Rather, we should expect the ROK to hold the line along the DMZ. That is consistent both with ROK threat perception (DPRK) and its force structure. 1/ english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_e…

Please join Christie and me in praying for those in Sulphur, Ardmore, and Holdenville whose communities were devastated by last night’s storms. Our hearts are broken at the loss of life in Holdenville, and we are praying for peace and comfort for the victim’s loved ones. My…

Horror show of a CNN poll for Biden. Trump ahead outside the margin of error, up even bigger w/ expanded field. Majorities see Biden's presidency as a failure & Trump's as a success. 60% disapproval for the incumbent. I want to focus on the Israel/war 🇮🇱 data point for a moment.…

Looking forward to participating in the inaugural Defense Industrial Base Conference DIBCON 24: Defense Industrial Base Conference in Oklahoma City, hosted by the Knudsen Institute, from May 7-9.

The passage of the TikTok divestment bill is a huge bipartisan success. Lawmakers and officials on both sides of the aisle must capitalize on this momentum and take further actions against the CCP's wide range of malign activities targeting our citizens and institutions.

China’s efforts to dominate the global shipbuilding and maritime industries represent a grave national security threat. The U.S. should use every economic tool at its disposal to address this issue, without delay. wsj.com/world/china/ch…

My statement after voting in favor of critical national security bills⬇️

Today we remember the terrible loss of life 29 years ago in the Oklahoma City Bombing, but also remember the incredible resilience of our people and our city.

Two former Australian Prime Ministers flying the flag for AUKUS and the benefits of a unified industrial base it will bring at the American Global Strategies Conference yesterday. Scott Morrison. Thanks to Robert C. O'Brien and Alex Gray for bringing everyone together.

So much for President Biden telling bad guys “don’t” actually being an effective deterrent. Every time he says “don’t,” they do.

This would not have happened on President Trump’s watch, and I hope the American people are closely following just how dangerous the world has become…

These promises can't all be true. It's a house of cards & it's increasingly possible they'll all come crashing down at once.

It's no longer hyperbole to worry about a third world war. Trends increasingly seem to point in that direction.

Biden tells Bibi to “pocket the win” from last night’s Iranian attack and not respond.

Last night —-

— 300 cruise and ballistic missiles and UAV’s shot at Israel from Iran

— most of the country forced into shelters in the middle of the night

— Ben Gurion airport closed to all…

The Biden administration's weakness has now thrust the US into a position where it could be drawn into not one not two but three major theater conflicts: in Ukraine, in the Middle East, and over Taiwan.
This is called a crisis.

Biden isn’t just telling Israel not to respond to Iran’s unprecedented attack. He’s also permitting tens of billions of dollars to be transferred to Iran through sanctions relief rather than enforcing existing sanctions. His strategy is indecipherable — is he malign, incoherent,…
