NEW: Pope Leo XIV met Lou Marini in today — the American saxophonist known as “Blue Lou,” a member of the Blues Brothers band.
In 1980, a young Robert Prevost dressed up as a Blues Brother.
The film was shot in his hometown of Chicago, and he saw it twice in theaters.
Team Canada needs to stand together more united than ever before.
The prime minister has my full support for a strong response—tariff for tariff, dollar for dollar. As we fight to protect Canadian sovereignty and economic security, everything needs to be on the table. Ontario is ready to do its part.
Did you know President Reagan’s 1985 Inaugural Parade was held at Walt Disney World?
When record-breaking cold canceled the traditional parade in Washington, thousands of high school musicians who had traveled to the capital were left without the chance to march.
But their story didn’t end there. Four months later, in a presidential history first, the Inaugural Bands Parade got a second chance—at Walt Disney World.
More than 40 years later, former Disney CEO @Michael_Eisner joined us at the Reagan Library and reflected on that memorable day, when President and Mrs. Reagan traveled to EPCOT to finally see the bands march. 🇺🇸
NEW: Pope Leo XIV tells NBC News that what he loves about America is that we have “invited for generations people from around the world to be part of America.”
Noting that he’s the grandson of immigrants, he calls immigrants one of the nation’s “greatest wealths.”
25 years ago, President Clinton opened the doors to the Clinton Foundation’s first office in Harlem, NY, beginning a new chapter of service after leaving the White House.
On opening day, he spoke about being a good neighbor, building community, and the people of Harlem who had always been there for him.
25 years later, those words and that commitment to service continue to guide our work — improving access to public health, expanding economic opportunity, developing leaders, and much more.
Worth reading this @KarlRove piece on President McKinley, part of @InPursuitUSA. We can learn quite a bit about leadership and character from the look at Presidents and First Ladies.
There’s no better way to experience the Badlands than on horseback, just like Theodore Roosevelt did.
His love for this remarkable landscape inspired one of the greatest conservation legacies the world has ever seen.
On Canada Day, we give thanks for the inheritance entrusted to us by our founders: a country rooted in freedom, responsibility, and a shared commitment to one another strengthened by generations of Canadians who built, served, and sacrificed.
Laureen and I wish everyone a Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦
