Today, Michelle and I are proud to announce that we will be hosting the dedication ceremony for the Obama Presidential Center on June 18th in Chicago, and welcoming the public on June 19th.
We can’t wait for you to visit. Go to obama.org to learn more.
The first (and possibly only) question that the press should ask at any DHS or ICE press event at this point is “why should we believe you?”
Covid is not mild.
Think Post infection risks lasting a long time.

The Trumpian GOP thinks callousness & brutality are the twins of logic & strength.
They’re turning far right at the flashing red light of barbarism.
Again. This matters.

There have been some very bad developments today.
It’s almost like we didn’t think this through.
The U.N. peacekeeping mission in Lebanon says three UNIFIL peacekeepers were injured after heavy firing struck their base in Al Qawzah in southwestern Lebanon. One was transferred to a hospital in Beirut. They have not identified who is responsible for he strikes. Thread 👇

I am so sick of the BS from the US government.
Environmental groups in the United States and Canada are sounding the alarm about a U.S. government proposal to change a federal regulation introduced in 2008 to protect a critically endangered species of whale. #Canada

Chicago native Jennifer Hudson is among the singers performing at a memorial for the civil rights leader who died last month. Former presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Joe Biden will attend. n.pr/3N1fntK
Obama on Jesse Jackson: "The message he sent to a 22 year old child of a single mother with a funny name, an outsider, was that maybe there wasn't any place, any room, where we didn't belong"
ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).
People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...
Lebanon’s Health Ministry says Israeli attacks have killed eight more people across the country, with several airstrikes overnight in southern Beirut neighborhoods where Israel had issued forced evacuation orders.
This is not good.

The Reverend Jesse Jackson's homegoing - a memorial and celebration of life for a great leader whose profound teachings, powerful actions, and guiding example we must continue to follow. Thank you Rev. Jackson - millions will carry on your work. Keep hope alive!
Watch the livestream:
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Thank you, Sir, for speaking plain truth.
Seems less than ideal.
They’re raping people on your dime.
Obama: Every day you wake up to things you just didn’t think were possible. Each day we’re told by those in high office to fear each other. Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength.
Former President Barack Obama on Rev. Jesse Jackson:
"He was talking about everyone who was left out, everyone who was forgotten, everyone who was unseen, everyone who was unheard, and in that sense, he was expressing the very essence of what our democracy should be."
Preach!
So the fact that we bombed a girls elementary school, while likely using AI for targeting, is going to be a major headline story dominating American news coverage when exactly?
MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”
The constitution's design does not grant the president a kinglike ability to take the country to war by himself, lest he do so for self-serving reasons. That is the entire purpose of dividing that authority between POTUS and Congress. Guess what just happened? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
BREAKING: Trump was just asked if Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home: “I guess… Like I said, some people will die.”
