📸 No one follows more etiquette rules than the Royal Family—but notice how King Charles didn’t make any smart-ass or demeaning comments about Zelensky’s attire today.

Why? Because respect isn’t about clothes—it’s about character. And that’s something money can’t buy.

Only 48 hours after Trump's hard turn toward Russia, an emergency meeting of NATO countries, plus Ukraine, WITHOUT the US.

The world is moving on without the US.

Crockett: When you're at war, you’re not worried about your outfit. If he was walking around in the fanciest suits, I'm sure that they would accuse him of taking our dollars and spending it on his wardrobe

This is a no win situation when you're walking in with someone who has decided that he is going to align himself with a dictator thug.

🚨 Biographer Franklin Foer wrote that @JoeBiden wasn’t just America’s president—he was the West’s father figure. World leaders called him for advice, relied on his clarity, and followed his lead against authoritarianism.

"It was his calming presence and his strategic clarity that helped lead the alliance to such an aggressive stance, which stymied authoritarianism on its front lines. He was a man for his age.”

With Biden gone, we now see the fractures. The void. The weakness.

History will rightly remember Biden as the leader who held the free world together.

I love badass Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. If only there were many more Democrats in Congress with her fighting spirit and fearless ability to deliver truth.

Honoring the Life and Legacy of President Jimmy Carter

Today, we honor the extraordinary life and legacy of President Jimmy Carter, a global champion for peace, justice, and equality.

President Carter was unapologetic in his faith and in how he conducted himself as an elected official. He led with integrity, compassion, and a deep commitment to serving humanity. During his administration, he took pride in not having to “…launch a missile, fire a bullet, or drop a bomb on anybody…”—a testament to his dedication to peace.

His friendship with the King family was deeply meaningful. In 1977, he awarded my father the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and in 1980, he signed legislation establishing the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site—now the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historical Park.

President Carter’s work to promote racial equality and economic justice paved the way for countless opportunities, including appointing 37 African American judges and enhancing access to federal contracts for Black businesses. His belief in justice and human dignity echoes my parents’ vision for a beloved community.

If we had 10 more Jimmy Carters, maybe our world would be a different place today.

I am profoundly grateful for his partnership with my mother, Coretta Scott King, and his support of her leadership in human rights.

On behalf of The King Center and the King family, I extend our heartfelt condolences to the Carter family. May you find comfort in knowing that his life and legacy will continue to inspire generations to come.

Rest in peace, President Carter. Your light and legacy will continue to guide us toward justice, peace, and equality for all.

—Dr. Bernice A. King

The Bible says a man is as he thinketh. If you want to be successful, you have to change your mindset. If you want more from life... There's really no way around it. It's not hard, your lack of belief is what makes it hard.

Happy 84th birthday to Claudette Colvin!

She refused to move to the back of a bus 9 months before Rosa Parks, the NAACP did not want to use her to represent them because she was 15 & pregnant.

As a new school year begins, I wanted to share some advice for students heading back to school. Remember to always be yourself, try your best, and never be afraid to make mistakes. I believe in you and can’t wait to see all that you do this school year!

A truly powerful moment in my journey was getting to meet Ms. Viola Fletcher, radiant at 109, the oldest living survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre. As we held each other's books, I felt the power and gravity of the moment: They want to hide a history that we are still living.
