I'm Senator Rob Portman. I'm here in Ohio today to talk to you about an epidemic in my state: the growing problem of addiction to heroin and prescription drugs. But it's not just in Ohio. Sadly, it's everywhere. With an average of more than 120 Americans dying every single day from overdoses, it's now the number one cause of accidental death in the countr...
Hi, everybody. This weekend, we'll dedicate the newest American icon on our National Mall – the National Museum of African American History and Culture. It's a beautiful building, five stories high and some 70 feet below the ground, situated just across the street from the Washington Monument. And this museum tells a story of America that hasn't always taken a fr...
Hi, everybody. On behalf of the Obama family – Michelle, Malia, Sasha, Grandma, Bo, and Sunny – I want to wish you a very happy Thanksgiving. Like so many of you, we'll spend the day with friends and family, turkey and touchdowns. We'll give thanks for each other, and for all that God has given us. And we'll reflect on what truly binds us as Americans. That's...
I'd like to begin by thanking our hosts, President Kuczynski and the people of Peru, for such a warm welcome. This summit was a chance for APEC members to tackle the challenges facing the (global opportunity and to seize) global community and to seize the opportunities that lie ahead. The central theme of our discussions this weekend was the need to encourage freer trade...
This is a particularly special moment for me because it is my first time as Prime Minister on board a Royal Navy ship. And it's a very proud one, too, as I have the privilege of talking to you – our brave men and women who put yourselves on the line to keep our people safe and protect Britain's interests around the world. Britain takes enormous pride in our Royal Nav...
Hinal Patal: Diwali's a fantastic time for me, where family get to come together. It's the Festival of Light, so we get to give thanks, be grateful for everything we have, spend time with those we love. Rena Amin: I think for the British Government to invite us to 10 Downing Street actually signifies the contribution that we as Hindus make to [the] UK, and also to sh...

Duncan Haldane (DH): Hello. Adam Smith (AS): Hello, this is Adam Smith calling from Nobelprize.org, the official website of the Nobel Prize in Stockholm. DH: Ah ha. AS: Well, first of al...
Thank you so much, everybody. Thank you. Thank you very much. Everybody please have a seat. Thank you. Well, good evening, everybody. On behalf of Michelle and myself, welcome to the White House. Over the past eight years, this has always been one of our favorite nights. And this year, I was especially looking forward to seeing how Joe Walsh cleans up – pretty good. I want t...
Thank you, my friends. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so very much for being here. I love you all, too. Last night I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country. I hope that he will be a successful president for all Americans. This is not the outcome we wanted or we worked so hard for, and I'm sorry we did not win this election for t...
Thank you, Eric. Hello, everyone. It's an honor to stand before you today and officially welcome you to Trump International Hotel and Tower, Washington D.C. This's been an unforgettable year for my family for many reasons. As Eric said, our business at Trump hotels continues to thrive. In the last 12 months, we've completed the redevelopment of Trump Internationa...
It gives me great pleasure to wish the Jewish community in Britain and around the world a very happy and peaceful New Year. This is a special time, when Jewish families join together in celebration and prayer. It is also a time of remembrance and renewal. We remember the tremendous contribution made by Britain's Jewish community to this country from those who have served...
My Lord Mayor, My Late Lord Mayor, Your Grace, My Lord Chancellor, Your Excellencies, My Lords, Aldermen, Sheriffs, Chief Commoner, Ladies and Gentlemen, We meet tonight in a world transformed. A year ago, few among us would have predicted the events ahead. A clear, determined decision to leave the European Union and forge a bold, new, confident future for ourselves in the w...
Rosh Hashanah marks the start of a new year. It is a time of redemption and renewal, and hope for a new beginning. I am delighted to join Jewish communities across Canada and around the world in celebration of Rosh Hashanah. In the coming days, Jews will come together to pray and hear the blowing of the shofar, to reflect on the past year and look forward to the promises of ...
President Obama: Thank you so much, everybody. Please have a seat. Have a seat. For generations, Presidents have faithfully executed two great American traditions: issuing a proclamation that sets aside a Thursday in November for us to express gratitude, and granting pardons that reflect our beliefs in second chances. And this week, we do both. Of course, Thanksgiving is a f...
Today, we pause to remember and honour the Canadian men and women who have served our country and fought for freedom around the world. Time and memory may fade, but our respect and appreciation for Canada's veterans will not. We all have a duty to hold the torch high, and to keep its flame alight. Liberty's cause beats deeply within our hearts, and every generation o...

The interviewer is Adam Smith, Chief Scientific Officer of Nobel Media. Bengt Holmström (BH): Hello. Adam Smith (AS): Oh, hello. May I speak to Professor Holmström, please? BH: Speaking. AS: Ah, this is Adam Sm...
Hi, everybody. I'm going to be honest with you – one of the best parts of being President is having your own really nice plane. And I'm going to miss it. A lot. Because up until I ran for this office, I was mostly flying coach. So I know what a pain the whole process can be – from searching for the best prices to that feeling you get when the baggage carousel stops a...
President Obama: Well, I just had the opportunity to have an excellent conversation with President-elect Trump. It was wide-ranging. We talked about some of the organizational issues in setting up the White House. We talked about foreign policy. We talked about domestic policy. And as I said last night, my number-one priority in the coming two months is to try to facilitate ...
Hi, everybody. This weekend, as we search for ways to bridge our differences, we look to the principles that are more enduring than politics. And some of the best examples are found in the men and women we saluted yesterday, and every day – our troops and veterans. It is the example of young Americans – our 9/11 Generation – who, as first responders ran into smoldering tower...
We are very blessed to call this nation our home. And that is what America is: it is our home. It's where we raise our families, care for our loved ones, look out for our neighbors, and live out our dreams. It is my prayer that on this Thanksgiving, we begin to heal our divisions and move forward as one country, strengthened by a shared purpose and very, very common reso...
