.@SecWar — you will be held accountable for illegal orders you give. This demands Congressional investigation, and the unredacted video of the strike and radio recordings of the orders given need to be shared with Congress and the American people immediately.
Exclusive: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave an order to “kill everybody” in the first strike on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. After two men survived, the mission commander ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions, according to two sources.

Schools are seeing real benefits to keeping phones out of the classroom — including improved focus, more meaningful interactions, and fewer distractions. That’s why I introduced bipartisan legislation to make phone-free classrooms the norm nationwide. https://t.co/vQ2HyGJdbl

While serving on Trump’s White House NSC, I reviewed a call between the Saudi Crown Prince and Trump following the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. It was shocking. The American people deserve to know what was said. Release the transcript. https://t.co/diCHIA7DMZ

Vindman said the call between Trump and the Saudi prince was one of the most "concerning" he reviewed.

The U.S. House JUST passed two efforts I led as part of the NDAA. These measures would... ✅ Require all DoDEA schools to adopt phone-free classroom policies ✅ Guarantee children of reservists have access to DoDEA schools while serving on accompanied active-duty orders

President Trump and Secretary Hegseth are using the justice system to punish Members of Congress — a blatant attempt to silence their political opponents. It’s retaliation, plain and simple. Their actions are outrageous, unacceptable, and illegal.

Did you know that the spotted lanternfly has reduced production for Virginia wineries by as much as 25%? As the only Virginian on the House Agriculture Committee, I won’t stand for it. That’s why I introduced a bipartisan bill to combat this pest. https://t.co/sRcexccXGd

Trump’s Big Ugly Bill will take food assistance from 4 million people. While the president jets off to Mar-a-Lago and builds a ballroom, millions of families will be left struggling to afford groceries. That isn’t leadership. It’s cruelty. https://t.co/VFhftaENt9
