Military spouses have to deal with so much — I was so pleased to speak to the VFW Auxiliary in Merrimack, NH, about veterans’ issues, but also accountability in politics and how we start to unite this country again. https://t.co/VZgs9z1mBN — PolitiTweet.org

In fact, I made my first of many comments about our shameful betrayal of our Kurdish allies at 4am a few hours after it was announced, a day or more before other candidates even made a comment. Happy to speak with you at your convenience. Thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

That's what I wanted for the Navy two decades ago, and it's what we still need today — more capability at less cost. — PolitiTweet.org

To deal with the threats of the 21st century -- including a rising China and other autocracies, rogue states, and violent extremists -- we must lead in high technology, especially the cyber field. — PolitiTweet.org

A better military is about better capability, not just capacity or numbers. Our aircraft carriers were able to strike nearly 10 times the targets in 24 hours as a two decades earlier, and the future was where our oceans were becoming increasingly transparent. — PolitiTweet.org

It was a transformation from basing our prowess upon force structure and instead force posture and capability. After analyzing and war-gaming all of the available data, I determined that we didn't need 375 but rather a reduction of the fleet to 260... — PolitiTweet.org

At times, I am asked about the military budget and our capability. I believe that we do need Defense Reform, much as I proposed in 2005 as the three star Admiral in charge of the Navy’s $350 billion warfare requirements. — PolitiTweet.org

So little, so meaningless. Even late, it shames us. Brutality, ethnic bloodletting, relying on the murderous dictator of Syria to protect our Kurdish allies — we can’t afford to go any lower. Where is our honor? https://t.co/gxe0FLtMKi — PolitiTweet.org

- Proposed defense reform as a 3 star Admiral, reducing Navy force structure from 375 to 260 ships, and investing instead on force capabilities of cyberspace and sensors at less cost. ✅ Who else understands how to bring about needed defense reform for less money? — PolitiTweet.org

The Cheshire County, NH, facility is a credit to the pragmatic progressive ideals that made it what it is. But it is one facility. We need to rethink our entire criminal justice system, so we best address concerns of, and with, those incarcerated, while reducing recidivism rates. https://t.co/evF0mXZWOw — PolitiTweet.org

There are fewer psychiatric beds in America today than we had in the 1850s. And 50% of psychiatrists will not admit patients unless they pay in cash. — PolitiTweet.org

Mental health is a major issue why so many people end up in prison. The largest psychiatric hospital in America today is Rikers Island prison in NY. We have shuttled too many people out of care or denied them it and left it to our prisons to handle. — PolitiTweet.org

I visited a prison every year as a Congressman and afterwards. So many people like our vets from Vietnam ended up there due to PTSD - we didn't know what it was at the time. — PolitiTweet.org

Today the United States locks up 2.4 million people in our prisons. We have the highest incarceration rate in the world. Compounding the problem is the fact that about half of these prisoners will end up back in jail after they are released. This is an immense problem. — PolitiTweet.org

It’s so important that people coming out of prison not only get a fair chance from employers willing to take them on, but that they are able to earn a decent wage. 99% of people want to live good lives. We have to help them. — PolitiTweet.org

Yet with the greatest will in the world, it’s very hard to make it with a record. People need jobs that actually provide a decent living, or they’ll too easily self-medicate or go back to a life of crime. — PolitiTweet.org

The superintendent’s approach is how best to manage behavior — not trying to control, but often deescalate. We need to make prison a truly rehabilitative experience, with more funding for mental health, drug treatment and vocational training and education. — PolitiTweet.org
