I was also #1 in my Class at West Point. I learned how to count votes and you lost!
That’s why Mike was number one in his class at West Point!

- I don't see kneeling as disrespect for our armed forces or veterans. It is a statement about the discrimination, prejudices, and injustices that still age American Society. @Nike & @Kaepernick7 are on the right side of history. #TakeAKnee
- Now America has secret police? Deployed against the wishes of local government! No names, no badges, look like military! One of the worst offenses against our democracy in American history. Please, America, turn this back.
- Treat Putin seriously. He is not a Western politician. He has a long term plan and he is going after it: destroy Ukraine, regain control of former Soviet States and dominate Eastern Europe. Break NATO. Force the US out. He is at war with us. We are the Main Enemy.
- We are entering a window of extreme danger for Ukraine and for NATO. Necessary heavy equipment - tanks, artillery, aircraft, air defense - is not arriving soon enough in sufficient numbers. The only way through this is to double-down on arming Ukraine.
- Russians now using massive thermobarics to destroy villages in eastern Ukraine. To my friends in the US government: Please, rush those US MLRS systems to Ukraine - the battle in Donbas is increasingly nasty. M777 good, but not enough!
- The Biden strategy is working. Putin seems perplexed: his false flag pretexts for invasion? Exposed! NATO? Increasingly unified! Ukraine? Determined and resilient! Not too late for Putin to withdraw, and be happy to survive the crisis he created.
- Great remarks by @POTUS Clear, forceful, perfect pitch. Russia the aggressor. NATO standing firm. Every American should be proud of his leadership!
- What happened to the Vindman family shouldn't happen to any family. Donald Trump must be voted out of office on November 3rd. #RightMattersTrump actively disparages the selfless heroism of our military. @AVindman not only felt the brunt of Trump’s disgusting attacks, but so did his family. In a new ad, in partnership with @ProjectLincoln, the Vindmans tell their story.
- Russia warns long range missiles in Ukraine intolerable? Then. Russia, cease and desist! Withdraw! Your aggression is intolerable! Your war crimes are intolerable! Ukraine must defend itself and regain its territories, and the West must and will assist!
- The problems with @realDonaldTrump’s tenure as Commander in Chief go beyond just his petty insults of those who served. On almost every level, Donald Trump just does not “get it” when it comes to leading our military and veterans. My op-ed:
- As former NATO Allied Commander, I know NATO’s Article 5 exists to PREVENT war. That’s why it’s only been invoked once – after 9/11. Montenegro is still sending troops to Afghanistan, for us. Worrying to hear Trump use Russian talking points with Tucker Carlson, about Montenegro.
- Somber, dignified, powerful remarks by @POTUS. This is American Leadership. Thank you, Mr President. We’re with you!
- Mr. President, I am telling you as a former commander that troops in combat need to see their Commander in Chief. It is a huge deal when one visits, and it doesn’t go unnoticed when there’s been no visit. Cancel a rally or two, and go see our troops, now.
