Critical funding for our roads, bridges, and ports were filled with DEI and climate requirements. It made no sense! USDOT has done the work to rip these radical roadblocks out and get America building again.

Once in a basement, now restored: "Christ on the Water" returns to Wiley Hall at @USMMAO. Another promise kept by @SecDuffy! 🚢🇺🇸
Jesus is out of the basement! I promised you I would restore faith at @UsmmaO by returning “Christ on the Water” to its place of prominence, where it belongs after being taken down under Biden and my predecessor. God is good for these Mariners - true FAITHFUL American

Last week, @USDOTFHWA Administrator Sean McMaster attended a ribbon cutting ceremony celebrating 48 miles of road reopening at @BlueRidgeNPS. This comes one year after Hurricane Helene hit North Carolina. @SecDuffy and USDOT are with North Carolinans every step of the way.

Thank you @FTA_DOT for demanding Chicago’s leadership be held accountable for the extreme transit violence happening on @CTA transit systems on a daily basis. The out-of-control crime status quo ENDS with @POTUS’ administration.
MUST READ: FTA Administrator calls for immediate action from @CTA in @chicagotribune to reduce extreme transit violence fueled by fare evasion lawlessness that leaves riders beaten, robbed, or shot.

The Next AI Gold Rush is inferencing. But will it happen in data centers, the cloud, or at the edge? 🤔 Training big frontier models is getting harder due to increasing costs and compute requirements, making inference the next big play. David Nicholson (@MasSubestimado),

Our system to keep Americans safe has been compromised by issuing commercial trucking licenses to operate 80-THOUSAND POUND VEHICLES to foreign drivers who are not lawful citizens. The process is broken, a threat to your safety, and a national emergency that requires action
