Waltz (10:08 am ET): Nothing major, Marco. Usual bureaucratic dance. Keep you updated.
Hegseth (10:10 am ET): Just got a new protein powder, bros 💪. Vegan. Supposed to increase energy and stamina. We should all start the day with a power shake.
Vance (10:13 am ET): Pete, that’s… great. Thanks for sharing.
