So much gratitude to all who made the @Center4Politics grand reopening and 250th exhibit premiere such a special weekend — public leaders, hundreds of generous donors, students, friends, colleagues, and partners. It would not have happened without you. Thank you.

These changes include the arrival of China as a peer competitor, U.S. intervention in Venezuela, recent U.S. and Israeli actions in Iran, and—not least, America’s own rebellion against the international order that it has sustained for 80 years.

As the U.S. enters another presidential election cycle, Americans are debating how best to sustain U.S. power. During our 2026 Battle Symposium on American Diplomacy, panelists will discuss how the U.S. should reconfigure its grand strategy amidst dramatic changes in the world.

This Monday! Join us for a timely conversation on the evolution of NATO, from its origins at the end of WWII to its most recent expansion in 2023, and the debate over whether enlargement has strengthened or strained the alliance.

@kevin_nealon @normmacdonald Groundhog Day?

Oh, sorry. Different Wknd Update anchor.

Nevermind…

[Ed Whelan @EdWhelanEPPC]

Well, this tests the limits of the unitary executive.
Will Trump as president direct Treasury to make massive payment to settle suit by Trump as private person?

@TheBabylonBee @IngrahamAngle @springsteen for the last laugh.

Today we honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a giant of the Civil Rights movement and a true American leader who challenged our Nation to live up to it’s highest ideals. America will never forget Dr. King and his example will inspire generations to come.#MLKDay

In one of the most-anticipated games in program history, @UVAFootball hosts Virginia Tech at Scott Stadium on Saturday nite. The Hoos know well what's at stake. With a win, they'd reclaim the Commonwealth Cup and advance to the @ACCFootball title game.

@UVADemocracy Terrific event. Congrats!

[UVA Karsh Institute of Democracy @UVADemocracy]

Thank you for making #Democracy360 a powerful reflection of our motto: Democracy from every angle. Over the past three days, we indeed explored democracy from every angle—from the Revolutionary War to law and civic norms to economic opportunity to music as a form of civic expression. We danced, clapped, learned, and connected with thousands of you.

We hope to see you again at future events hosted by the Karsh Institute—where we bring people together to build a better democracy for all!

*And a special thank you to our partners, @TheAtlantic and @myVPM!

If Americans want a more effective and responsible presidency, what would that look like? How would we get there?

Miller Center Director @wjantholis explains how presidents have become more powerful, more partisan, and less popular.

Panelists—including former WH officials, journalists, and scholars across the political spectrum—will examine challenges facing the modern presidency. They will discuss what we might expect during the rest of the Trump admin and what might come in future admins of either party.

[George W. Bush Presidential Center @TheBushCenter]

Statement by President George W. Bush:

"Today, a young man was murdered in cold blood while expressing his political views. It happened on a college campus, where the open exchange of opposing ideas should be sacrosanct. Violence and vitriol must be purged from the public square. Members of other political parties are not our enemies; they are our fellow citizens. May God bless Charlie Kirk and his family, and may God guide America toward civility."

[William Antholis @wjantholis]

@ConsWahoo .@Miller_Center Conference on the American Presidency, Sept 24-25, will discuss the trend, the causes, and the implications. Save the date!
