President Reagan signed legislation establishing MLK Day as a national holiday 43 years ago today, on Nov. 2, 1983.

I made my first appearance on the front page of the @DetroitNews (on the right) a little over two years later, singing during a ceremony on the first-ever MLK Day

I was in class at West Point on 9/11 when I first heard about the attack. Hard to believe that was 25 years ago.

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

A quarter of a century has passed since September 11, 2001, when the peace of our Nation was shattered by terrorists.

Today, we remember the 2,977 precious lives taken from us, honor the heroes who answered the call, & keep their families in the heart of our Nation.

Above all, we must ensure the memory of 9/11 never fades, but is carried from one generation of Americans to the next.

We will never forget. 🇺🇸

[The White House @WhiteHouse]

One year ago, we tragically lost a fearless patriot. A champion for freedom and for our country.

Charlie Kirk changed the course of American history. His courage, conviction, and love of country will never be forgotten. ❤️

"Well done, good and faithful servant"

“The package is a win for GOP U.S. Rep. John James of Shelby Township, who is running for governor and whose district includes Selfridge.

“James has been advocating for funding for the upgrades to prepare for the base’s new aircraft missions of the F-15EX and KC-46 refuelers; however, the Senate hasn't yet passed its version of the legislation.”

President Trump is BACK at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and he's just taken the stage.

Since 2019, tens of thousands of Christians in Nigeria have been slaughtered as part of a sustained pattern of religiously motivated violence by Islamist jihadis.

America gives billions to Nigeria. We will not continue to fund a Christian genocide.

Selfridge would not have gotten the new mission if Biden was still in office.

Thank you @POTUS for keeping your promise and delivering for Michigan jobs and our national security! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸

[Rep. John James @RepJames]

"Just a few years ago, Selfridge was on death's doorstep but then President Trump saved it with the new fighter mission," James said. "And I'm doing my part in Congress to make sure we get the money for the upgrades so Selfridge stays open for generations."

President Trump Delivers Remarks at the Salute to America Celebration https://t.co/aoySBtSJAm

[Freedom 250 @Freedom250]

America, it's time to celebrate!

At President Donald J. Trump's direction, gates to the National Mall will reopen at 9:45 PM. The Salute to America celebration will move forward, the President will deliver remarks at 11:00 PM, and the fireworks spectacular will follow.

Rain or shine, the American people deserve a celebration worthy of our nation's historic 250th birthday.

For 250 years, Americans have overcome every challenge with grit, resilience, and determination. A little rain will never diminish our pride, our patriotism, or our celebration of the greatest nation in the history of the world.
