wrapping up his first term in office with a tradition that goes back decades, hosting the previous president for the unveiling of his official presidential portrait. on that day, in may of 2012. obama made this statement about the point of these portraits, as an enduring member of the presidents temporary time in office serving the people. now the white house is many things at once. it is a working office. it is a living museum. it is an enduring symbol of our democracy. but at the end of the day, when the visitors go home and the lights go down, a few of us are blessed with the tremendous honor to actually live here. i think it is fair to say that every president is acutely aware that we are just temporary residence. we are renters here. we are charged with the upkeep and tell our lease runs out. but we also leave a police of ourself in this place. we are renters here. charged with the upkeep until our lease runs out. in 2012, we did not know how precious those remarks wer
good evening, alex in my experience and i don t keep a temperature diary. but in los angeles, generally, september seems to be the hottest month, hotter than august. so, those alerts might be going out. i love the very notion of you keeping a temperature diary. i have thought about, but now. there is always, tomorrow lawrence. thanks alex. have a great show. thank you. if you control the courts, you can do whatever you want. every dictator knows that. vladimir putin knows that. when he was president, donald trump was not smart enough to know that. but mitch mcconnell knew it. and so, this steady stream of trump appointed judges to federal courts, from top to bottom, from district courts through the appeals courts, all the way up to the united states supreme court, we re all certified by a right-wing organization that calls itself the federalist society, had rushed through senate confirmation by mitch mcconnell. at the trump judges have now so infected the fe
things at once. it is a working office. it is a living museum. it is an enduring symbol of our democracy. but at the end of the day, when the visitors go home and the lights go down, a few of us are blessed with the tremendous honor to actually live here. i think it is fair to say that every president is acutely aware that we are just temporary residence. we are renters here. we are charged with the upkeep and tell our lease runs out. but we also leave a police of ourself in this place. we are renters here. charged with the upkeep until our lease runs out. in 2012, we did not know how precious those remarks were. there was no president biden fighting for the soul of this nation. there was no president trump fighting to stay in office, no insurrectionists storming the capitol. no top secret classified records taken from the white house and stored in a florida closet. none of that had happened yet. in fact, we wouldn t see an official white house portrait unveiling again for an
during today s event, the former president echoed the point he made back in 2012, that presidents are renters at the white house, and that their time there is temporary. i ve always described the presidency as ays relay race, y take the baton from someone, you run your leg as hard and as well as you can, and then you hand it off to someone else. knowing that your work will be incomplete. the portraits hanging in the white house chronicle theit runners in thatth race. each of us tasked with trying to bring the country we love closer toy its highest aspirations. now the reason this event was heldth today and not during trump s term in office, the reason it hasp been a decade since we ve seen one of these unveilings is because for the first time in u.s. history, the incumbent president refused to honor his predecessor with this rite of passage. trump never scheduled the ceremony and given the content, it might have been awkward for trump given his intention of not leaving t
