On this #MothersDay, may we take time to reflect on and celebrate the women in each of our lives who have had important roles. I was blessed with an extraordinary mother, Angelena, who believed passionately in the value of education and the importance of the arts. She was a teacher, a church organist and produced operettas with her high school students. Loving and strong beyond measure, she reinforced educational opportunities to shield me against circumstances. Her spirit lives on today in me and in the many lives she touched. She and my father were the best parents anyone could have – I thank God for them every day.
I am truly saddened to learn of the passing of Madeleine Albright, an American giant whose life and legacy will be remembered for generations to come. She was the last secretary of state for the 20th century and the first of the 21st century. She was not only a trailblazer for women worldwide, but a fearless fighter for freedom on behalf of all humanity. For me personally, I have lost an invaluable colleague and a very dear friend whom I will miss tremendously.  When I was studying music at the University of Denver, I took a class on international politics from a professor who changed the course of my life. That professor was Madeleine’s father, Josef Korbel. How extraordinary that two female secretaries of state, from opposites sides of the political spectrum, would be influenced by the same man. While we had our differences on policy, we shared a deep appreciation for this country and for freedom around the world.  Hers really was a great American story: that one can come from humble beginnings and go on to change the world in remarkable ways. Madeleine Albright left her mark. She made a difference. May she rest in peace.
The Ukrainian people are fighting fiercely for their freedom — and that of all freedom-loving people. God Bless you people of Ukraine.
It’s hard to beat a beautiful day like this at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Congratulations to the @rams on their Super Bowl win! Earlier this year, I was able to share my support of women in football and my love of the game for NFL Films. See more on episode 4 of #EarninIt, on @peacocktv.
On Memorial Day, we are reminded of the heroes who have laid down their lives for us all in defense of freedom. May they rest in peace and their lives be honored in our daily actions and service to those who defend us today.
This week the @hooverinstitution held its biannual board meeting in Washington. I am grateful to those who joined us, especially members of Congress and the administration, to discuss the critical situation in Ukraine, as well as other policy issues. Hoover is committed to producing the highest-quality academic research to contribute to addressing the many challenges our world faces.

Today we remember those brave patriots who sacrificed so that we may live in freedom. May they rest in peace eternally. And let us acknowledge today those who continue to defend us far from home and family. May God protect them.
Each spring and fall the @HooverInstitution convenes scholars and policy makers for discussions on the challenges facing our country. We are grateful for all those who joined us in Arizona. Current challenges to our values, prosperity, and security are a reminder of the importance of open dialogue in our policy discussions, and Hoover is focused on promoting constructive discourse.

Today the @hooverinstitution celebrates its 103rd year. Hoover is a place that matters — one that has remained dedicated to improving the human condition through its @hooverlibraryarchives and the highest quality research. As Director of Hoover, I am proud to lead the institution during these extraordinary times. Our world faces many challenges and opportunities, and Hoover is committed to improving policy outcomes.
Today Stanford students gathered for a conversation with @zelenskiy_official on Ukraine, led by my colleague Michael McFaul. I greatly admire the dedication of our students in the Ukrainian Student Association for their commitment to democratic ideals and their home country. Our hearts continue to go out to the Ukrainian people in their fight for freedom.
Congratulations @stanfordwgolf on your national championship! I am so proud of this team’s accomplishments both on the course and in the classroom. Truly an inspiration! #GoStanford
