The Tigray People's Liberation Front chose escalation over a peaceful path forward. Today’s actions risks dragging Ethiopia back to war.
The United States Government is deeply concerned by this escalation and calls on all parties to immediately engage in constructive dialogue to prevent further violence.

🔥 JUST NOW from @SecRubio: President Trump has the power and the obligation to address ANY THREAT TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY. Cuba’s leaders have an opportunity to change their country for the better—they should take it.

.@POTUS: The United States totally rejects any attempt to construct a globalist scheme of control for Artificial Intelligence — hereinafter officially be called ‘Super Intelligence.’ Whoever wins AI, WINS! We are leading now over China, and everyone else — and I’m going to keep it that way.

Chairman @RepBrianMast: President Trump destroyed Iran’s nuclear stockpile, navy, air force, and military capabilities—but I know the IRGC will throw stones if that’s all that’s left. The true end of this evil regime will come when the Iranian people take the path we forged for them, stand up, and take back their country.

The South African government knows exactly what it needed to do, but its officials failed to act. Those who enact discriminatory policies and incite violence have no place in the United States. They must face the consequences of their own actions.
As @POTUS has made clear, the South African people are being failed by a government that is destroying its economy through an obsessive pursuit of racial grievance against the Afrikaner minority. The South African government has consistently failed to adequately address rural crime, violent and dehumanizing rhetoric, and race-based discriminatory policies against Afrikaners and other minority populations. Today, I’m announcing a new visa restriction policy targeting foreign nationals who enact or enable policies that promote race-based discrimination, incite violence, or enable land confiscation without compensation in South Africa. Those responsible for these injustices have no place in the United States. state.gov/releases/office-of…

Today, the House passed my Foreign Service Modernization Act. Our diplomats are on the front lines of advancing American interests and protecting our national security around the world. This bipartisan legislation updates the Foreign Service for 21st-century challenges by strengthening recruitment and training, expanding support for diplomats serving overseas, increasing pathways for veterans to join the Foreign Service, and more. The Foreign Service Act hasn’t received a comprehensive review since 1980. It’s time to modernize how our diplomatic corps operates. I look forward to working to get this legislation across the finish line in the Senate.

🚨 I'm proud to announce the House just passed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 by a vote of 262 to 159 — fulfilling one of Sen. Graham's final wishes. This bill will cripple the Russian war machine and finally bring Putin to the negotiating table. And it will ensure America’s adversaries — not only Russia, but also China and Iran — suffer for their coordinated campaign of aggression. 262 members the House voted not just for Ukraine, but for freedom and democracy. Today, we are one step closer to securing Lindsey’s vision of enduring peace in Ukraine and beyond.

.@RepYoungKim: China imprisons Americans as diplomatic leverage, while terrorizing Uyghurs, Tibetans, and other minorities on OUR soil. America must do more to protect those being targeted.

We don’t leave Americans behind. Min Zin was arrested and wrongfully detained by Chinese authorities while on his way to an academic conference in China. He is one of the many Americans held abroad that @SecRubio and @POTUS are working tirelessly to bring home. Listen to the testimony from Min Zin’s wife here:

.@RepMikeLawler: Twenty five years after 9/11 attacks, Al Qaeda’s core is degraded but its affiliates have spread Africa and Asia. Effective counterterrorism policy is built on a strong partnership between Congress and the State Department, grounded in shared strategic vision.

Chairman @RepBrianMast & @RepMcCaul: For years, Russia has slaughtered innocent lives with help from our adversaries. The Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act will cut off Putin’s money line and force him to the negotiating table to finally bring peace to Ukraine.
