My backyard became a gathering spot for several monarch butterflies earlier today. They loved my Rose of Sharon tree. It was so beautiful to watch. Just magical. 🦋

I took these in August 2006 in Washington, DC. Today is our Independence Day. It's a day to reflect as well as to celebrate, and to hold our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution very close to our hearts. I love my country, but I'm pensive & concerned about so much. Keeping the faith. ❤️🇺🇸

Remember the scene in The Patriot, toward the end, where the flag was tattered and dirty and worn, and someone says why bother fixing it because it’s all a lost cause? What our flag truly stands for over the last 250 years will never be a lost cause. Keep the faith. ❤️🇺🇸

As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.

Here are 2 more photos from inside the lobby of the Ed Sullivan Theater from May 2023 when we saw the taping of The Late Show w/ Stephen Colbert. 💙 It's just so gorgeous in there - and so much broadcasting history. They better not mess with this building.

So glad I got to attend a taping of The Late Show back in May 2023 - the last taping before the writers’ strike. Amazing fun! Stephen Colbert is & forever will be a class act. Last pic is the lobby of the Ed Sullivan Theater & the double doors to The Late Show set. 💙 #Colbert #TheLateShow

This flag hangs in my home. I found it this way & bought it as a reminder—Our freedoms are hard fought & won. This old, tired American flag is beautiful to me because it reminds me that we have gone through hard times before and won. Our differences make us stronger. United, we stand. ❤️🇺🇸 #nokings

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

My friend & I are Colbert fans & went to a taping of The Late Show on May 1,2023—the eve of the writers' strike. So impressed w/his support of his writers. Both pix are from the day of taping—one is a screen grab (we were center, floor level, 2nd row). Bad move, CBS. Colbert will continue to thrive.

A Japanese Maple seedling rooted itself right up next to my house. It couldn't stay there, so I transplanted it. Now I'm nurturing it, and when it grows up and is ready, I'm going to plant it in my back yard. I also love that its 2 leaves look like tiny angel wings.

I kept digging into that AI company behind Sports Illustrated's fake writers. Turns out it's created tons more fake writers across the web, sometimes for surprisingly huge media clients. And then things get even wilder... For @futurism.bsky.social // futurism.com/advon-ai-con...
