First Lady at the Launch of the “Be Best” Initiative
Posted by: thepinetree on 05/08/2018 12:29 PM
Washington, DC...Thank you. Good afternoon. Welcome to the White House. As a mother and as First Lady, it concerns me that in today’s fast-paced and ever-connected world, children can be less prepared to express or manage their emotions and oftentimes turn to forums of destructive or addictive behavior, such as bullying, drug addiction or even suicide. I feel strongly that, as adults, we can and should be best at educating our children about the importance of a healthy and balanced life.
President Trump on US Withdrawing from Iran Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action
Posted by: thepinetree on 05/08/2018 12:38 PM
Washington, DC...My fellow Americans: Today, I want to update the world on our efforts to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. The Iranian regime is the leading state sponsor of terror. It exports dangerous missiles, fuels conflicts across the Middle East, and supports terrorist proxies and militias such as Hezbollah, Hamas, the Taliban, and al Qaeda. Over the years, Iran and its proxies have bombed American embassies and military installations, murdered hundreds of American servicemembers, and kidnapped, imprisoned, and tortured American citizens. The Iranian regime has funded its long reign of chaos and terror by plundering the wealth of its own people.
