Based on history, many presidents come into office with lots of plans, and an agenda and things they want to start and an order in which they want to do those things.

No nation helps more people around the globe. Our deep generosity is given so freely that it is simply expected, by others and by ourselves. From Ethiopia to Haiti to Japan where there is tragedy, famine or disaster, we lead the way with private and public help.

I think cheerleading is kind of dumb. I didn't admit to my daughter that I was a cheerleader until she was past the age when I thought she might want to do it.

We will all look back on the Trump presidency as reporters one day over a beer, and say, we were there, we covered it all, and what a trip it was!

A King and Queen can comfort the people in times of grief, and provide a nationalist camaraderie. That is the gift that royalty can give back.

Americans fall into two categories when it comes to British royalty: loyalists and rebels. Loyalists made Princess Diana the all-time best-selling 57-time cover girl of People magazine.

Being a 'Lady' used to be something to which all young women aspired.

Poise is a word that seems to have slipped out of the lexicon. There's no emoji for it.

In this country, we've gotten away from institutionalizing and we've moved toward assimilating and drugging the mentally ill.

If we are going to get serious about 'gun violence' we should get serious about facing the facts of the violent mentally ill.

Early in my career, I was subjected to harassment in the form of some unwelcome suggestive comments and overtures.

A society where divisiveness leads to crassness that seems to feel it's justified by political bent. Is that really who we want to be? Is that what our nation was built on?

The Fox News that I know and work in is a team of producers, technicians, photographers, truck operators and production managers who barely have time to eat lunch, much less engage in bad behavior.

The words used to describe the heroes of D-Day are not the current lexicon we tend to use for success. Humble, selfless, brave. Those are not words we attach in 2019 to superstars.

Our founders thought long and hard about what the office of president should be. George Washington resisted the role, and then defined it.

Here, anyone can become president. We've had haberdashers, generals, lawyers, peanut farmers, community organizers and a real estate developer, to name a few. But perhaps no one had a better resume than George H.W. Bush.

Our relationship with presidents is often like that of a teenager and parent. He's our leader, but sometimes we rail against his decisions for us. We push back at times to make sure he knows who's boss.

Death has a way of making us all stop and think about life.

When I was a toddler, we lived in Maryland and my mom would routinely pile us in the car to go see events unfolding in Washington, D.C. such as the return of Apollo astronauts, parading through the streets of D.C. on open back convertibles while we all waved pennants.

Who doesn't like a good wedding? Even the most jaded, can be moved to enjoy the hopefulness of a young couple.

I like to do a little bit of exercise in the morning. I try to do, like, 20 to 25 push-ups in the morning, just to kind of get the blood flowing.

I started my career at the Wall Street Journal, before moving on to CNBC and NBC.
