.@SecVetAffairs: "I am tired in a country where I see we're 'giving veterans this,' we're 'giving veterans that,' and 'haven't we given them enough?' I have one thing to say... We do NOT 'give' our veterans anything. They have EARNED everything that they have gotten!"

.@POTUS, @VP, and @SecVetAffairs salute as The Star-Spangled Banner is played at Arlington National Cemetery 🇺🇸
America was founded by those who were willing to stand up and fight for it. Today, we say thank you to the men and women who have protected our country for 250 years.

Our nations history is written in the lives of the men and women who stepped up to serve our country. It is the honor of a lifetime to serve them everyday.
Happy Veterans Day!
Tomorrow we celebrate those who raised their right hand and said I’m willing to go, here I am, send me.
Thank you to all of our Veterans who said this country is worth fighting for.
Veterans dedicated their lives to defending this nation, and now many are helping us feed it. Agriculture offers Veterans an opportunity to build businesses and support their families and communities. I’m proud to join @SecRollins , @SBA_Kelly and @USDA today to honor the Veterans who found a way to keep serving our country.

.@SecVetAffairs on Veterans Day: It is the combined forces that give us election days—that give us freedom of speech, press, and assembly. Without them, all those freedoms would be under attack or gone. 🇺🇸
Today, VA opened its 47th new clinic under the second Trump Administration.

.@SecWar has defended vital U.S. interests and helped inspire record-high recruiting levels in America’s Armed Forces. He’s also been a great partner as @DeptofWar and @DeptVetAffairs work together to support servicemembers as they transition to Veterans. Proud to call him a colleague and friend.

I agree @SecVetAffairs, there’s no better way to grow our economy, get illegal alien truckers off our highways, and deploy elite American talent — than by putting Veterans behind the wheel of America’s big rigs 🇺🇸
Freedom Haulers is a win for our Veterans AND our supply chain
Since @POTUS was sworn into his second term, VA has opened 46 new clinics across the country. We’re bringing VA healthcare closer to home and delivering on our promises to put Veterans FIRST. 🇺🇸
Under the Trump Administration, we’ve cut the VA benefits backlog down nearly 70%! We’re committed to delivering fast, accurate results for Veterans. 🇺🇸
Thanks to @SusieWiles47 for her amazing leadership, and congratulations to the brilliant @StephenM!

When duty called, he answered. When his country needed him, he stood ready to defend it. Known as the “American Sniper,” Chris Kyle served four combat deployments in Iraq as a U.S. Navy SEAL. After leaving the military, he dedicated himself to helping fellow Veterans. This Veterans Month, we honor Chris Kyle’s service, sacrifice and enduring legacy. 🇺🇸
Their service will never be forgotten. We’re awarding a record $106.5M to support Veterans cemeteries across America, ensuring those who served our great Nation receive the honor and dignity they deserve. 🇺🇸

We’re making the largest non-recurring maintenance investment in VA history. Nearly $5 BILLION in FY26 to modernize VA healthcare facilities across the country.
