As the White House hosts a UFC event on June 14, we’re reminded that Theodore Roosevelt brought his own fighting spirit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Theodore Roosevelt often boxed and wrestled inside the White House, once suffering a permanent eye injury during a sparring match. He carried that same toughness into conservation, as he fought to preserve federal lands for the benefit and use of all Americans.

That’s a wrap on the @UFC Ceremonial Weigh-Ins on the Ellipse 🦅 See you tomorrow — 8 PM EST.

The National Mall was looking its absolute best as fans gathered for @UFC @Freedom250 last night!

“We found 146,000 kids so far. Some of these kids claimed that they were raped over 600 times. I don't care who you are. If you can't stand for law enforcement to go find these kids, who are you?” @SecMullinDHS

What a terrible time for me to be away from the office, @EricSchmitz1! Thanks for the visit and iconic speech, @SeanAstin! #Rudy

Massive L for the Democrats and massive W for the America people. In case the Democrats haven’t realized by now: we aren’t backing down.

What was the end result of Democrats’ DHS shutdown? Zero ICE reforms, and ICE and CBP are now funded with an additional $70 billion through the rest of Trump’s presidency. After negotiations fell apart in the Senate, Republicans simply went around Dems and funded Trump’s immigration enforcement agenda on their own, & Dems were powerless to stop it. And this is *on top* of the money ICE & CBP already got in the One Big Beautiful Bill last year. ICE & CBP now have more money coming to their coffers than they ever would have if there had been no DHS shutdown.

.@AlMeyer19 is one of the best in the business. Looking forward to continue working together this campaign season to win in November! @realDonaldTrump

Alex is a key part of the team who is loved by all. They call him “the friendly Alex Meyer” around the White House for a reason. But don’t let his southern charm fool you…Alex is a killer who knows how to pull the right levers and get stuff done. Glad he’s in the foxhole!

Alex is among the best of the best. Working for him these last 18 months has been both a privilege and an honor. This office was relentless in Alex’s vision to communicate the President’s mission and agenda out to state and local governments, work with our federal partners in the many departments and agencies on critical issues states face, and bring information in from our in-state partners. We are all lucky to have had him lead this office and we are just as lucky to have @ashleyangie25 take the reins at such a critical time. Congratulations, @AlMeyer19! You will be missed but will deliver huge wins for the President in November. Onward! 🏴‍☠️⚡️

Man in the (World’s Most Famous) Arena!

Alex @AlMeyer19 has been a great partner and friend to work with on issues that impact counties across the nation. I wish him well in this new role!

Voter ID is common sense. That’s why democrat politicians oppose it! To my State House colleagues, let’s get this done! 🇺🇸

.@NBA Commissioner Adam Silver: President Trump was a fixture at Madison Square Garden. He had courtside seats. He was here all the time, he was at Drafts — so he's a genuine @nyknicks fan.

It’s been an honor and a privilege to be in the trenches with Alex Meyer @AlMeyer19 over the past 18 months. Alex is a great leader, family man, and friend. He grew our office into the one-stop shop for State and Local Elected Officials. Early on, when hosting our legislative leader fly-ins, aka “White House State Leadership Conferences,” Alex would always kick it off by asking, “Who here knows what the WH Office of Intergovernmental Affairs does?” One or two hands might go up. Fast forward to January of 2026, that same question easily got 50-60 hands raised. That demonstrates the growth and power of our office, which wouldn’t have been possible without Alex’s leadership. Our office has hosted nearly 1,500 legislative leaders who heard from Cabinet Secretaries and our Domestic Policy Council. Because of this initiative spearheaded by Alex, we are helping codify President Trump’s America First Agenda at the state level! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 Alex is now going to serve our country in another capacity—helping keep our majorities in the House and Senate. Our office is in great hands with @ashleyangie25 at the helm, and White House IGA’s future couldn’t be brighter. Fair winds and following seas! 🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️

Few have the privilege to witness the extraordinary amount of behind-the-scenes work it takes to build relationships and pursue the shared agenda between @POTUS and state government teams like ours. I’ve been blessed to watch @ALMeyer19 do just that, lead an extraordinary team, and work closely with my team and I to do the blocking and tackling needed to build a safer, more free, and more prosperous future for America and Nebraska. I’m grateful that under @POTUS and @SusieWiles47, leaders like Alex have emerged and been empowered, and I’m equally grateful for his work building a welcoming “front door” to the White House for state leaders. 🇺🇸

POTUS is a certified ball-knower Sombrero Man ain’t it

See you soon, New York City.
