My PSA for the day. The Red Cross says we are facing the biggest blood shortage in over a decade. Make an appointment to give blood if you can—I just scheduled myself for next Monday on the Red Cross app. It’s easy to do and a small way to give to others. #RedCross

Congrats to the class of 2022 and welcome to the PLS family! Can’t wait to meet you all and learn about your incredible work. #PLScholars

Great to have this conversation with Jeb Bush and Margaret Spellings this week George W. Bush Presidential Center…we talked about everything from tests and accountability to school choice and parent activism.

I love having a new class of #PLScholars at George W. Bush Presidential Center every year. Thanks to Keith Hennessey, Dan Bartlett, Carlos Gutierrez, Fran Townsend, Nicole Bibbins Sedaca, and President and Mrs. Bush for speaking to the scholars and sharing their insights.

I had the privilege of interviewing this remarkable American last week. We talked about leadership, what’s going on in Ukraine 30 years after his involvement in ending the Cold War, and football games between the Bush and Baker boys. And he’s still going strong at almost 92.

#ICYMI: Bush Institute Executive Director Holly Kuzmich joined Good Day to preview today's event, Elections — A #MorePerfectUnion. We'll discuss how elections work, why they matter, and how we maintain their continued integrity and credibility. ow.ly/uEuR50Jbll6

Great piece on the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. We're starting a series of reports and analysis of what the piece calls "the most successful global health program" as we reach 20 years of PEPFAR being in place and saving millions of lives. nytimes.com/2022/06/01/opi…

Mixed emotions today as I announce I'm leaving the Bush Institute this fall to join DRK Foundation to help them expand their work in Texas. I am proud of everything we've done at the Bush Institute and also excited to start a new chapter!

Thanks to the Dallas Morning News for this piece on my next role and the news that David Kramer will ably step in as the new Executive Director of the Bush Institute this fall!

Tonight on @DanAbramsLive: - Bill Kristol - Jeremy B. White - Aidan McLaughlin - Holly Kuzmich They all join @DanAbrams at 9 pm ET, only on NewsNation.

Check out this month's Catalyst. We tackle education, particularly getting kids on grade level. IMO, the conversation on cultural issues in schools has diminished our focus on the fact that kids are woefully behind in reading, math, and skills that lead to lifelong success.

Looking back on 20 years ago at beginning of PEPFAR, President Bush: "We all decided to work together to solve big problems. And that's uniquely American... I'm here to say as loud and clear as I can: Congress must fund PEPFAR."

"Who are you to not allow them?" A university professor tore up his degrees on TV as he protested the Taliban's ban on female students.

This Friday I'll be moderating a discussion at #PEPFARat20, an event hosted by George W. Bush Presidential Center marking 20 years of the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. Since its inception, PEPFAR has saved more than 25 million lives and 5.5 babies have been born HIV-Free. Tune in!

I love Bono and his bandmates for their music. And I equally love him for his long-standing advocacy on HIV/AIDS. He has worked with everyone—Republican and Democrat, leader and citizen, famous and not so famous—to save lives.

So thrilled for my friend Margaret. Congrats to her and great choice by BPC!

For nearly a decade, PLS has brought together a diverse group of bold and principled leaders who are committed to facing critical challenges at home and around the world. Apply to join the tenth class of #PLScholars now through July 14: presidentialleadershipscholars.org/apply/

I'm a blood donor through the American Red Cross , and one thing I love about it is that they report to you where your blood donation ended up. Today it's Salina, Kansas. If you are willing and able, make an appointment and see where your donation ends up!

Today is my day on Wordle!
