More than 40 years ago, I arrived in Chicago in search of an idea. I was a young man looking for purpose, who believed deeply in America, was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement, and wanted to be a part of something larger. The America I believed in was one where everyone has opportunity, everyone is seen, everyone belongs—because that was an America that had a place for me, too.
It was great reconnecting with our alumni tonight!
Michelle and I will always be grateful for the chance to work side-by-side with so many brilliant, selfless people who believed in something bigger than themselves.
Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this — not in a million years.
Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. 🇺🇸
#FIFAWorldCup ready! 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇲🇽
It's an honor for California to celebrate with our partners in Canada and Mexico ahead of the world's biggest sporting event — marking the first time in history that three countries are hosting the World Cup.
California has spoken. Thank you for standing with us. To every volunteer who made a call, sent a text, knocked a door, or showed up when it mattered most — this victory belongs to you.
We're just getting started. On to November.
🚨🚨 BREAKING: In a major rebuke of Trump, the House has passed a War Powers resolution directing him to end unauthorized military action in Iran without congressional authorization.
The resolution now goes to the Senate.
MAGA hates working people.
It’s a disgrace that nearly 20 GOP states still have a $7.25 minimum wage.
In California, it’s $25 an hour for an entire sector of workers! As it should be.
Stephen Colbert was awarded the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power. A fitting honor for a champion of our democracy.
RETWEET to congratulate Colbert on this honor!
The prediction markets are not messing around.
Democrats are crushing it with an 81% chance of winning the House in 2026.
Republicans? Down to a pathetic 20%.
The American people are ready to reject the GOP’s chaos and dysfunction.
Big blue wave coming! 💙🌊

Bruce Springsteen appeared on Stephen Colbert’s show tonight and COOKED Trump and his goons
“I’m here in support tonight for Stephen, because you are the first guy in America who lost his show because we got a president who can't take a joke…. and because Larry and David Ellison feel they need to kiss his ass to get what they want. Stephen, these are small minded people. They got no idea what the freedoms of this beautiful country are supposed to be about”
Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, John Oliver, and Seth Meyers taping tonight’s late-night super reunion on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
