Chaos in President Trump's Administration threatens our national security. The President must listen to his military leaders and avoid making shoot-from-the-hip decisions that put Americans and our allies in harm's way." Tester supported Mattis' bipartisan confirmation in 2017. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
