In 2010 my daughter Ines was upset because I didn’t bring her to South Africa in 2010…I told her that we will arrive to another final @FIFAWorldCup and I will take you and we will win! Today We did it and I kept my word…@SEFutbol and thank you @Airbnb for helping make the dream possible…
To the world today, Nelson Mandela is a hero exalted as a legend. But to the people of South Africa, he was Madiba, a leader who fought for justice even when the tides of the present were turned swiftly against it. To honor Madiba’s legacy is to fight injustice before history rewrites itself.
Today on Anthony Bourdain’s birthday, let’s honor Tony by sharing a meal…with a friend or with a stranger…and making sure they’re okay. @wckitchen we are honoring him in a way by being next to the people of Venezuela after the earthquakes. Sharing food and hope. #BourdainDay
I would like to appeal once again for reflection on the consequences of war and for their prevention through wise and responsible decision making, for this is not the result of an inevitable fate, but of free choices and, therefore, of morally accountable actions.
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.
NEW: Pope Leo XIV’s new archbishop of New York, Ronald Hicks, celebrates the Knicks’ title with Mayor Zohran Mamdani at the city’s Puerto Rican festival.
Two Black boys running a lemonade stand received an unexpected show of support after someone called 911 on them. Instead of shutting them down, Kansas City police officers and firefighters showed up to support them, helping them earn hundreds of dollars. This is what community should look like! Investing in our youth instead off discouraging their entrepreneurship. ✊🏿
Thank you to all who fought and sacrificed in freedoms defense all those years ago. Incredible footage here. Blessed that both my uncles survived and will never forget the over 400,000 who did not come home.
Dolly Parton on her Imagination Library program that Republicans defunded:
"[My daddy] was the smartest man I have ever known, but I knew [...] his inability to read probably kept him from seeing all of his dreams come true. Inspiring kids to love to read became my mission."
No nation, no society, and no international order can call itself just and humane if it measures its success solely by power or prosperity while neglecting those who live at the margins. Indeed, Christ’s love for the least and the forgotten compels us to reject every form of selfishness that leaves the poor and the vulnerable invisible.
🇺🇸 🔥@AOC in Alabama: “It wasn’t until the Voting Rights Act was passed that we even had a democracy in this country — they’re afraid of us coming together… Alabama, Tennessee, etc. is the crucible… what they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening salvo.”
BREAKING: In a powerful display of solidarity, thousands of Americans are marching in Selma to protest against the Supreme Court's rulings gutting the Voting Rights Act. This is amazing.
The president is negotiating against his own administration to shake down taxpayers for $10 billion.
The corruption meter is flashing red and sounding the alarm.

I swung Florida's 1st Congressional District 22 points. Together, we can flip our district blue in a place where Democrats have been overlooked for too long.
