Can't make sound policy without being honest about the threats we face. Example: There are not "moderates" running the Islamic Republic of Iran. "Moderates" don't give a home base to al-Qa'ida. go.usa.gov/xAvbm

AG Barr first served our Administration as a member of my Advisory Board at the CIA. He made me a better Director and the Agency a stronger espionage force. I fully supported Bill to become AG as I knew he would serve with professionalism and elan, he did that and more.

What an honor to join today's Intra-Afghan Negotiations in Doha. It is remarkable - and a testament to the human spirit - that the pain and patterns of destruction are no match for the enduring hopes for peace held by the Afghan people, and their many friends. ImageImageImageImage It took hard work and sacrifice to reach this moment, and it will require hard work and sacrifice to take advantage of it so that the talks result in a durable peace.

.@khamenei_ir’s fabrications that the U.S. is responsible for the #WuhanVirus put Iranians, Americans, and the rest of the world at risk. Facts matter. Here are a few: FACT: In February, Iran’s chief terror airline, Mahan Air, continued to fly at least 55 times between Tehran and China, spreading the #WuhanVirus. At least five countries’ first cases of #COVID19 were a direct result of the Iranian regime’s disregard for everyone’s health.

It was my pleasure to speak to #AIPAC2019 today. My message was not only to reaffirm the essentiality of the U.S.-Israel relationship, but also that the U.S. stands with the Jewish people and Israel in the fight against the world’s oldest bigotry: anti-Semitism. The rise of anti-Semitism & anti-Zionism strikes at the very foundation of freedom. The Trump Administration opposes it unequivocally & will fight it relentlessly, from the fever swamp of the UN Human Rights Council to the world’s #1 proponent of anti-Semitism: Iran. #AIPAC2019

The U.S. condemns the attacks on civilians in #Venezuela perpetrated by Maduro’s thugs. These attacks have resulted in deaths and injuries. Our deepest sympathies to the families of those who have died due to these criminal acts. We join their demand for justice. #EstamosUnidosVE We denounce Maduro’s refusal to let humanitarian assistance reach #Venezuela. What kind of a sick tyrant stops food from getting to hungry people? The images of burning trucks filled with aid are sickening.

The U.S. today declares it has found Russia in material breach of the treaty and will suspend our obligations as a remedy effective in 60 days unless Russia returns to full and verifiable compliance. go.usa.gov/xPzmU Our nations have a choice: bury our head in the sand or take commonsense action in response to Russia’s flagrant disregard of #INF. #Russia has violated since 2000’s, while U.S remained in scrupulous INF compliance.

The men who rebuilt Western civilization after WWII knew that only strong U.S. leadership could unite sovereign nations around the globe. This allowed us to enjoy the greatest human flourishing in modern history. This is the leadership @POTUS is boldly reasserting. International bodies must help facilitate cooperation that bolsters the security & values of the free world, or they must be reformed or eliminated. When treaties are broken, the violators must be confronted & the treaties must be fixed or discarded. Words should mean something.
