  4. Herzlichen Glückwunsch to my friend and Time's Person of the Year, Angela Merkel! Thanks for your moral leadership and strong partnership.

  9. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Today, we give thanks for all of our loved ones and the brave men and women in uniform who serve our country.

  10. Slamming the door in the face of refugees would betray our deepest values. That's not who we are. And it's not what we're going to do.

  11. Welcoming the world’s vulnerable who seek the safety of America is not new to us. We've safely welcomed 3 million refugees since 1975.

  12. Here, our focus is giving safe haven to the most vulnerable Syrians – women, children, and survivors of torture.

  13. We will provide refuge to at least 10,000 refugees fleeing violence in Syria over the next year after they pass the highest security checks.

  14. We also win this fight with our values. America can ensure our own security while welcoming refugees desperately seeking safety from ISIL.

  15. Protecting the American people is my top priority. With our 65 global partners, we're leading the campaign to degrade and destroy ISIL.

  16. This is an American hero: Capt. Groberg put it all on the line for his team. On his worst day, he gave us his best.

  18. I just launched my Facebook page with a video on climate change. America will lead on this. The time to act is now.

  19. Every American deserves quality, affordable health care. If you or a friend needs coverage, go to and sign up now.

  20. Who knew community policing could involve the Nae Nae? Great example of police having fun while keeping us safe:
