Behold: "The Scream" (original & feline version) #cats #CatsOfTwitter #Caturday

It means so much to Barack and me to open up the Obama Presidential Center on the South Side of Chicago. This is where I grew up, where Barack got his start, and where we raised our girls. So having a place where kids from our community can see themselves, connect with each other, and channel their hope—there’s nothing more powerful than that.

We were delighted to present Gilbert Martina, the President of the Curaçao Football Federation, the certificate for the smallest country by population to qualify for the FIFA World Cup - 156,115 people 🇨🇼

Were you ever a scout? Girl Scout, Boy Scout, brownie, etc.. I was a brownie for a while.

CVS is entirely too aggressive with these texts telling me to pick up my prescription. Calm the fuck down. 😂

A 5-year-old was asked to dress up as his favourite person, and he came dressed as his school security guard. ♥️

They represent to me what’s best about this country and what’s best about our values and people who aren’t trying to get every last nickel, and aren’t cutting corners when it comes to values, and treat people high and low with respect and kindness, and handle their business, just salt of the earth, bedrock people. There are people like that all across the South Side of Chicago, and there are people like that all across this great country of ours.

She made a home for Michelle and Craig here on the South Side of Chicago, not with a lot, but with a lot of love and hope and perspective and wisdom. And her husband Fraser Robinson, who got up every day and went down right next to Navy Pier, working in the water reclamation district. He showed what it means to work hard and to put family first.

Animals are like children, but better. 😏

I don’t have a photo of Jack’s mom when she was pregnant. She must be a man.

Honestly, from the bottom of my soul: I don’t care if you call it left or right. I don’t want children in Gaza to die. I don’t want children in Ukraine to die. I don’t want people forced to leave home, cross oceans, and end up doing desperate things just to survive. And I don’t want the people who were born in peaceful towns to lose the peace they grew up with. I just want a world where kids can grow old. Where families can eat dinner together. Where dads can yell at the TV during an NFL game. Where moms can buy way too much at Costco. Where neighbors argue about barbecue, gas prices, and basketball. A boring, ordinary, safe life. That should not be a political dream. That should be the minimum we ask of Earth.

Back together, at Wimbledon 💚💜 Serena and Venus Williams will compete in the Ladies’ Doubles at The Championships 2026

Today’s lunch

OMG! I want a Viking Helmet!

Fun Fact: These banners cost DC taxpayers exactly $0. They’re funded by downtown property owners as part of our work to attract visitors, support local businesses, and strengthen DowntownDC. And if it thrills you to debate our banner design, we’ll count that as engagement 😉

The Knicks belong to New York City. And this championship belongs to the people who waited 53 years for it. That’s why we’re giving away 600 free tickets to Thursday’s Championship Ceremony at City Hall following the ticker-tape parade. The public lottery is open now and will close tomorrow, June 17, at 11 AM. Details at Knicks.com/CeremonySweeps.

I believe there are journalists who probably know what’s going on with his hands but either aren’t comfortable reporting it or are saving it for a book and that possibility really pisses me off

Narrator: There is no “American church.”

Vance’s toughest questioning this week came from The View. Why is that?

You had a worm in your brain, RFK Jr. Sit down.
