11 posts held, back to 6 September 2025 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views — note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
Measured directly from 1 video with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
Telegram’s own ‘edited’ marker: 0 of 5 posts held from the last 30 days (0%) carried it when this register last read them. The marker says a post was changed after publishing, not what it said before — this register holds the earlier wording only where an edit fell between two of its own reads (see the edit ledger and how it is measured).
In January, Secretary Hegseth promulgated the 2026 National Defense Strategy. As he put it then, “This Strategy reflects President Trump’s historic approach to our nation’s defense. It must be carried out thoroughly, rapidly, and comprehensively.” Last week, we were pleased to provide an update on how much progress the Department has made in implementing this Strategy. 1/
“The Department of War has made significant progress implementing the 2026 National Defense Strategy’s guidance related to the defense of the U.S. Homeland; deterring China in the IndoPacific through strength, not confrontation; increasing burden-sharing with U.S. allies and partners; and supercharging the U.S. defense industrial base…” 2/
Australia and the United States have taken great strides over the last year and a half to strengthen collective defense and deterrence by denial in the Western Pacific, but we both know we must move faster and do more to meet the moment. That is the legacy of ANZUS that we will continue to carry forward for peace through strength. 2/2
This week, I laid out at the North Atlantic Council how the Department is approaching the Europe Posture Review that Secretary Hegseth directed in June. 1/
“My purpose today is to give you, our allies, a clear sense of our strategic and overall approach in this important initiative and then invite your feedback, building on conversations already underway among many of our teams. To begin with, I hope and believe that we have been clear and consistent in our approach towards deterrence and defense with our NATO allies. Fundamentally, we believe that in order to survive a…
It was a great honor yesterday to represent Secretary Hegseth at the NATO Defense Ministerial. NATO’s historic commitment last year to spend 5% of GDP on defense has put the Alliance on a stronger and more durable path. 1/
My full prepared remarks may be found here. 9/9
Last week, I had the distinct honor of making my first international trip as Under Secretary to two vital allies in Asia, our priority theater – South Korea and Japan. 1/
The Department of War will continue to advance the Administration’s common sense, flexible realism vision in the Indo-Pacific. We are already seeing tremendous, material progress in achieving these goals, and we will lean forward across this vital region. 10/10

Channel created
Showing the 11 most recent of 11 posts we hold for @USWPColby. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Named by 1 registered channel — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 5 November 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
