    Congratulations to the @eagles, winners of #SuperBowlLIX! This team is full of superstars, and Hurts was incredible.

    The offensive and defensive lines were also sensational, and the Eagles defensive line is the best in the NFL.

    Congratulations also to owner Jeffrey Lurie, all

    Three years ago, I was privileged to serve as an Honorary Coin Toss Captain at Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles.

    We are looking forward to watching #SuperBowl tonight after spending part of the week in New Orleans for some pre-Super Bowl fun with Dove.

    Which team are you cheering for: Eagles or Chiefs?

    16 years ago, on January 29, 2009, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was signed into law, making it easier for women to fight for fair wages.

    Lilly passed away in October of last year. Let's honor her legacy by working to make the world a more equitable place. https://t.co/2gOPhW6MZc

    39 years ago today, the Challenger disaster took the lives of 7 crew members, including schoolteacher Christa McAuliffe.

    Thinking of the family and friends of these astronauts today.
