Thank you to the @PhillyPolice, the @PAStatePolice, and all of our law enforcement partners for protecting public safety today in Philadelphia.
In the midst of blatant antisemitic targeting of Jewish-owned restaurants on the anniversary of Kristallnacht, the City of Brotherly Love showed up to support our neighborhood businesses and prove once again that hate has no place in our Commonwealth.

I miss when the Sunday newspaper was so thick you had to separate it into sections before anyone could read it.

We need more Pat Tillman’s in the world. Service over self. Duty. Honor. Country. He gave up a lucrative NFL career to serve our nation after 9/11. Tragically he was killed in a friendly fire military incident in Afghanistan. 🇺🇸
Today we celebrate and honor Pat Tillman on what would have been his 50th birthday.
The next time in at the Hall of Fame Museum inside the Carson Student Athlete Center stop by Pat Tillman’s trophy case to learn more about his story. #PT42

He walked away from the NFL to answer a higher calling. 🇺🇸
Following the 9/11 attacks, Pat Tillman left behind a professional football career to enlist in the U.S. Army alongside his brother. An Army Ranger who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, Tillman was killed at just 27 years old.
This Veterans Month, we honor his courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to serving something greater than himself.

I can sleep once I die too, and a bunch of other old soldier stuff too I guess.
