So today, without further ado, I am honored to introduce our First Lady, who shares my deep gratitude for your sacrifices to secure our country's safety and its well-being. The First Lady is committed to bettering our nation by ensuring that every child feels loved, supported, and prepared for the future. Her recent accomplishments include protecting children online through the passage of the Be Better Act, and providing opportunities for children in foster care.
Most recently, she championed an executive order fostering the future for American children and families to help those children as they transition into adulthood. Please join me in welcoming the First Lady of the United States, Mrs. Melania Trump. Good afternoon, Camp Lejeune.
Thank you, Usha, for that kind introduction to General Rizzo for your warm welcome here today. It has been a memorable day and an honor to meet the men and women of the United States Marine Corps. Last week, the Marine Corps celebrated 250 years of service, two and a half centuries of courage, tradition, and excellence.
To you and your families who give so much for our country, thank you. Technology is changing the art of war. Predictably, AI will alter war more profoundly than any technology since nuclear weapons.
The most significant change will be speed. Speed in weaponry, decision-making, detection, attack, and defense. Artificial intelligence will take center stage in the theater of war.
It already plays a meaningful role on the battlefield. Of course, it is the Marine who will always play the most critical role in realizing mission success. Before I continue, I would like to take a moment to welcome to the stage two outstanding Marines who are being recognized for their service.
Sergeant Blake Donner, the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit Warrior of the Month, and Corporal Tysha Marie Cannon, the Marine Medium Filtrator, Chordone 365 NCO of the Quarter. Marine Corps Air Station New River serves as a leading site for aviation, seamlessly combining state-of-the-art aircraft, training, and response capabilities along the East Coast of the United States, a vital asset for America's security. Technology is at the core of New River and will guide its evolution.
Artificial intelligence is propelling America's military into a new era. We are moving from human operators to human overseers fast. The shift from soldiers to machines is already underway.
Autonomous helicopters, swarming drones, and recon aircraft are here now. Fighters, less jets, and autonomous bombers are on the way. To win the AI war, we must train our next generation for it's America's students who will lead the Marine Corps in the future.
Lejeune High School demonstrated today that it's ready to lead. Its mission, educate, engage, and empower each student to succeed in a dynamic world, is more than a slogan. The school's ecosystem of educators, administrators, parents, and students is poised to drive innovation for America.
They have fully embraced the Presidential Artificial Intelligence Challenge, showcasing creativity and technical vision for the future of AI. Their dedication to learning and their commitment to our country is inspiring. The Lejeune and the New River community impressed me today.
Military families are the quiet strength of our nation. Your love, patience, and courage give our service members the confidence to serve with honor and the comfort of knowing home is always waiting. As Thanksgiving approaches, families across America will come together.
But for many of you, someone you love will be serving far from home. Please know that our nation is thinking of you, praying for you, and deeply grateful for your service. To every service member, thank you for standing watch so others can celebrate in peace.
And to every military spouse and child, thank you for your strength and love. You serve our country too. This month and every month, America remains grateful for your service, your sacrifice, and your spirit.
As we give thanks this season, let us remember what unite us. Our shared love of country, our faith in one another, and our pride in those who serve. Happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you.

She’s not as pretty and stylish as Big Mike
I did not see a sarc tag, so I guess that is your truth? As you see it?
I’m sure the King thought her dress beat out a hijab by a mile.
Didn’t think I needed one. But here it is. /SSSSS 😎😎

Melania Trump:
“Individual productivity is not selfish. It is the heartbeat of civilization.”
Shes a Boss! Love her
Thank God I got out before Bill and Hillary got in.
Meanwhile, the JaySix RAT sexual deviant Sinasters are telling the military men and women to disobey orders not given to them by The Death Party’s DemonRATS. Treasonous scum. Especially that Kelly fag.
