It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

The Iran deal was signed on Sunday. The fact that the trump Administration hasn’t released the deal language and instead is having @JDVance try to spin the deal in advance tells you all you need to know.

Bienvenue @vonderleyen et @eucopresident.

Chicago, it’s good to be home!

Michelle and I built the Obama Presidential Center to be a place where people of all ages can learn, play, and work – and we can't wait to welcome you all later this week!

Netanyahu acaba de admitir la derrota. Dijo en conferencia de prensa que derrocar al régimen iraní no era uno de sus objetivos al empezar la guerra. No hay dudas que la capacidad militar de Teherán frustró todos sus planes y los de Donald Trump. El terrorista antes de empezar los ataques mandó al pueblo iraní a rebelarse y morir diciendo que ellos se iban a encargar de destituir a los Ayatollahs. Ahora como perdieron y firmaron la rendición no les queda otra que aceptar que no van a poder establecer un nuevo orden en Irán. Subestimaron demasiado al enemigo. La humillación que sufrió Estados Unidos e Israel en esta guerra no tiene precedente en décadas.

We lost the war with Iran. This agreement is the actual terms of the US surrender, just like trump’s surrender to Taliban in his first term. Eerie similarity.

Indeed, how can the West allow Russia to pursue its barbaric destruction of Ukrainian civilians, children, churches and culture?
What does the West stand for?
Why is not Europe defending Ukraine?!

🚨DONALD TRUMP FELL ASLEEP AT HIS OWN UFC SPECTACLE

His White House UFC event was an enormous logistical headache and likely cost taxpayers millions.

It’s worse than you think:

⚫️ Secret Service deployment

⚫️ Presidential motorcade operations

⚫️ Air support and aviation assets

⚫️ Military and federal security personnel

⚫️ Temporary infrastructure and staging

⚫️ Barricades, fencing, checkpoints

⚫️ Additional law enforcement staffing

⚫️ Traffic control and road closures

⚫️ Emergency medical and response teams

⚫️ Communications and security equipment

⚫️ Event setup and cleanup

⚫️ Weather contingency operations

⚫️ Coordination across multiple federal agencies

⚫️ Disruptions to White House operations

⚫️ Security sweeps and venue preparation

All so Donald Trump could throw himself a massive UFC-themed birthday spectacle and reportedly fall asleep.

What a tremendous waste.

Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha after his man-of-the-match display against Spain:

"I cried after the game because I grew up with my grandparents when I was a kid, and they could not be there. They passed away a few years ago.

"My mum could not be here either for a VISA issue, and the money we had to pay for it. We did not manage to do this in time."

Keeping the public informed about critical wildfire news saves lives during wildfire season. The Trump Administration’s reckless staffing decisions put communities in danger—I’m demanding they be reversed. https://t.co/sWpeAgTaB2

@kylegriffin1 Ahhhhh remember the good old days, before the kremlin owned the White House, half of Congress and a majority of the Supreme Court, when clear evidence of crimes against the Constitution were prosecuted & people were actually held accountable.

🚨BREAKING: The Obamas are reportedly weighing a defamation suit against Josh Hokit, UFC & Paramount after Hokit shouted “Michelle Obama is a man!” in a desperate attempt to extend his 15 minutes of fame for the MAGA crowd during last night’s gay wrestling contest on the WH lawn.

The Trump administration’s proposed U.S. Postal Service (USPS) rule, which would require states to share voter lists to qualify for mail-in ballot delivery, has sparked significant backlash from state officials and political figures like Melanie D’Arrigo. Under the proposal, election offices would be required to use a new federal portal to submit voter eligibility data and unique ballot tracking information, effectively positioning the USPS as a federal gatekeeper in the election process. Critics, including D’Arrigo and various Democratic-led states now suing to block the directive, argue that the move constitutes an unprecedented federal overreach that threatens to strip states of their constitutional authority to manage their own elections. While the White House maintains that the policy is necessary to enhance security and improve confidence in the voting process, opponents warn that centralizing this data creates new risks to voter privacy and could lead to significant administrative disruptions ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

A 37-year-old Palestinian asylum seeker from Gaza has been arrested in Greece on suspicion of being a Hamas operative. Authorities say he trained with Hamas in Gaza, received explosives training in Malaysia, built a bomb lab in an Athens apartment, and was linked to four Palestinians arrested in Cyprus on terrorism-related charges.

Police seized chemicals, laboratory equipment, phones, laptops, hard drives, and bank cards. According to reports, he admitted being a Hamas operative and was waiting for instructions before launching an attack.

Greek authorities are investigating whether the target was the Israeli-owned Crown Iris cruise ship due to arrive in Crete on Tuesday, the same vessel that faced anti-Israel protests in Greece last year.
