Secretary of War Pete Hegseth @SecWar - On October 17th, at the direction of President Trump, the Department of War conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with Ejército de Liberación Nacional (ELN), a Designated Terrorist Organization, that was operating in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility.
The vessel was known by our intelligence to be involved in illicit narcotics smuggling, was traveling along a known narco-trafficking route, and was transporting substantial amounts of narcotics. There were three male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel during the strike—which was conducted in international waters. All three terrorists were killed and no U.S. forces were harmed in this strike.
These cartels are the Al Qaeda of the Western Hemisphere, using violence, murder and terrorism to impose their will, threaten our national security and poison our people. The United States military will treat these organizations like the terrorists they are—they will be hunted, and killed, just like Al Qaeda.

Senate Republicans @SenateGOP - Even in a Schumer Shutdown, Republicans are unleashing American energy and lowering costs. Last week, Republicans repealed 3 Biden-era regulations that stifled American energy dominance.
Schumer needs to reopen the government so that Congress can deliver on more of our promises to the American people.

Senate Republicans @SenateGOP - “Every day gets better for us” – @SenSchumer
WHO IS US?
Every week of a shutdown costs the economy $15 billion.
Every day WIC and SNAP recipients are wondering if they’ll be able to afford food.
Government employees, including TSA workers and military families, wonder if they’ll be able to make ends meet.

Senate Republicans @SenateGOP - Thank you, Leader John Thune, for showing real leadership and common sense. The Schumer Shutdown is painful and expensive for Americans-and entirely unnecessary. Democrats chose to shutter everything and to keep it shut. It's past time for them to choose to end the shutdown, so we can get back to work.

Senate Republicans @SenateGOP - Just last week, the Senate confirmed 107 Trump administration nominees and a third circuit judge, overturned three Biden-era regulations, and passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)...
Meanwhile, Senate Democrats continue to hold government services hostage. They're playing political games with people's lives. This Schumer Shutdown needs to end now.
