Went and paid my respects at the tiny unincorporated little village in Westmoreland County Pennsylvania of "Forbes Road" where men have fought to protect our liberty and treasure, even before our country was formed. The military road was built by General Sir John Forbes and cut by a young George Washington of the Colonial British Army during the French and Indian War to attack the French garrison at Fort Duquesne in what is now Pittsburgh and passes through this village. 100 feet away lies a Memorial for all who have served our country since World War I through the wars in Afghanistan in Iraq. An extraordinary amount of men are on this honor roll who stepped up when duty called for a village so tiny.#MemorialDay.

There are some traits your grandchildren inherit from their parents. There are some traits your grandchildren inherit from you. This is one of those moments where they inherited the same traits from both generations. My best advice to all three generations? Never lose the joy of playing.

They love their jobs— just spent hours with Steelworkers at US Steel in the Mon Valley— they see their work as being part of something bigger than self, they are building the things that make Americans lives better. Same with seamstresses in South Carolina & Appalachian miners

Yinz guys I feel like there is a solution to this problem; there are hundreds, likely thousands of fearless musicians & rappers out there in the country, hungry to be able to have an opportunity to showcase their music and celebrate the country--the kind of musicians that frequently play county fairs looking for their big break or just doing what they love! Honestly there is nothing more #America250 than giving them this opportunity!

It’s a darn shame everyone didn’t watch this. It was nothing but a pure celebration of the US Army and oh what a great celebration it was of the men and women who put it all on the line for all of us—What an incredible way to kick off the 250 #Army250 #USA250

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio- In an effort to teach my Harvard University students a different way to look at the world—that everything does not fit the stereotype it is portrayed as by my profession — I took them to The Butler Institute of American Art; their reaction to this seemingly simple abstract portrait is worth the 20 seconds (and more importantly should teach all of us a valuable lesson.)

Nearly fifty years ago, the city of Clairton was the backdrop for the movie Deer Hunter, which depicted the impact of the Vietnam War on a group of lifelong friends in a working-class steel town. What endures from that movie is the connective tissue that the men and women have with each other, much of it centered on their livelihoods at the mill. The story of Clairton: ballad of an American city

Pennsylvania, especially York County is known as the "Snack Food Capital of the World" due to its rich history and concentration of major snack manufacturers like Utz, Snyder's of Hanover, and Martin's Potato Chips, it's the one state where Biden should've never used the term. #Snackflation #PAFarmShow.

What are teens, preteens & little kids doing in Western Pennsylvania on Friday and Saturday nights? Rollerskating. By 7 o’clock there had to be 200 kids at this rollerskating ring & owner tells me it’s like that every weekend. Also no phones in use because no service inside 🤷🏻‍♀️
