据美国广播公司（ABC）报道，当地时间4月9日，美国总统特朗普签署文件，指示美国司法部调查在他第一任期的政府任职过的两位高级官员，这两人后来都公开批评特朗普。

报道称，特朗普的目标之一是迈尔斯·泰勒，泰勒曾在特朗普的第一届政府担任国土安全部长尼尔森的副幕僚长。泰勒于2018年在《纽约时报》发表匿名文章《我是特朗普政府中的一名抵抗者》，在美国媒体和政坛引发一场轩然大波，引发白宫方面寻找暗藏在特朗普身边的这位“内鬼”是谁。

Terrible helicopter crash in the Hudson River. Looks like six people, the pilot, two adults, and three children, are no longer with us. The footage of the accident is horrendous. God bless the families and friends of the victims. Secretary of Transportation, Sean Duffy, and his talented staff are on it. Announcements as to exactly what took place, and how, will be made shortly!

Mexico OWES Texas 1.3 million acre-feet of water under the 1944 Water Treaty, but Mexico is unfortunately violating their Treaty obligation. This is very unfair, and it is hurting South Texas Farmers very badly. Last year, the only Sugar Mill in Texas CLOSED, because Mexico has been stealing the water from Texas Farmers. Ted Cruz has been leading the fight to get South Texas the water it is owed, but Sleepy Joe refused to lift a finger to help the Farmers.

THAT ENDS NOW! I will make sure Mexico doesn’t violate our Treaties, and doesn’t hurt our Texas Farmers. Just last month, I halted water shipments to Tijuana until Mexico complies with the 1944 Water Treaty. My Agriculture Secretary, Brooke Rollins, is standing up for Texas Farmers, and we will keep escalating consequences, including TARIFFS and, maybe even SANCTIONS, until Mexico honors the Treaty, and GIVES TEXAS THE WATER THEY ARE OWED!

I am pleased to announce that William "Billy" Marshall III, of the Great State of West Virginia, a State I love and won SIX times, as the next Director of the Bureau of Prisons. Billy has a distinguished Law Enforcement career, rising from the ranks of the West Virginia State Police to serving as the current Commissioner of the West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Billy is a Strong Advocate for LAW AND ORDER. He understands the struggles of our prisons better than anyone, and will help fix our broken Criminal Justice System. Congratulations Billy, you will inspire us all!

I am pleased to announce that former Congressman Mark Walker, of North Carolina, a place I love and won SIX times, will be the United States Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom.

A former pastor, Mark was elected unanimously to House Leadership, and did an incredible job as Ranking Member on the House Homeland Security’s Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee. As Chairman of the Republican Study Committee, Mark helped us secure many Victories. In his new role, Mark will work incredibly hard to expose Human Rights Violations, champion Faith, and help us secure Life Saving Results.

Congratulations to Mark, his wonderful wife, Dr. Kelly Walker, a Captain in the U.S. Air Force Reserves, and their three children.

I am proud to nominate Yehuda Kaploun as the United States Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism, Ambassador-at-Large. Yehuda is a successful businessman, and staunch advocate for the Jewish Faith and the Rights of his people to live and worship free from persecution. With Anti-Semitism dangerously on the rise, Yehuda will be the strongest Representative for Americans and Jews across the Globe, and promote PEACE. Congratulations Yehuda!

Senator Pete Ricketts is doing a terrific job for the People of Nebraska! Pete is working hard to Champion our Great Farmers and American Agriculture, Stop Illegal Immigration and Migrant Crime, Cut Taxes, Grow the Economy, Support our Military, Veterans, and Law Enforcement, and Protect our always under siege Second Amendment.

Pete is one of the strongest Senators in the Country on Border Security, whereas his potential Opponent, Dan Osborn, is a Radical Left Open Border Extremist, who will put our Country, and Safety, LAST. Pete, on the other hand, will ALWAYS put Nebraska, and America, FIRST.

Senator Pete Ricketts has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!

It’s so hard to watch as Highly Qualified and Respected Ambassadors, who we desperately need representing our Country in Faraway Lands, are purposefully meant to wait as the Democrat Senators take maximum time for every single one of them, even though they were confirmed with Bipartisan Support, also at maximum time, and only done to hurt our Country. A process that should take a matter of minutes is forced into taking months, making it very hard on the new Ambassadors’ families, and not good, at all, for the Good Ole’ U.S.A. In a true sense, in numerous cases, what they do is actually a Threat to National Security. John Thune and the Republicans are doing a great job, but nothing much can be done when the Democrats make everyone sit, day after day, pushing the limits. The level of hostility is not to be believed!
