James “Mad Dog” Mattis, is now officially the 26th Secretary of Defense. He has made his first statement in his official role, Friday. Watch below…

From The Blaze:

The retired Marine general “scholar-soldier” nicknamed “Mad Dog Mattis” by the press released a statement to the Department of Defense soon after his swearing in.

“It’s good to be back and I’m grateful to serve alongside you as Secretary of Defense,” he began.

Together with the Intelligence Community we are the sentinels and guardians of our nation. We need only look to you, the uniformed and civilian members of the department and your families, to see the fundamental unity of our country. You represent an America committed to the common good; an America that is never complacent about defending its freedoms; and an America that remains a steady beacon of hope for all mankind.

Every action we take will be designed to ensure our military is ready to fight today and in the future. Recognizing that no nation is secure without friends, we will work with the State Department to strengthen our alliances. Further, we are devoted to gaining full value from every taxpayer dollar spent on defense, thereby earning the trust of Congress and the American people.

He concluded, “I am confident you will do your part. I pledge to you I’ll do my best as your secretary.”

Congratulations Mad Dog Mattis!

    I think he will do a great job. He sounds tough and he won’t back down to our enemies! We need someone who will fight Isis and terrorist NOT a muslin sympathizer!! Like Obama is! He wanted to invite and move our enemies in and kill us!! I don’t think this general will do that! Thanks to Trump who is now our president!! Things are going to change in Washington now!! I don’t think Trump will allow it. I hope so!
