George Bush Presidential Library and Museum/NARA / April 14, 1989: President George Bush and first lady Barbara Bush host a screening in the White House movie theater. The first lady is sharing a seat with her grandson Jebbie Bush.Former President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama wear 3-D glasses during a Super Bowl party in the White House Family Theater in 2009.It was, on occasion, used by presidents to rehearse important speeches such as the State of the Union address and at other times, as a spot for visitors to dump their hats, bags and coats. But for more than 80 years, the White House movie theater was mostly a place where the first family and their guests went for entertainment.
began this week of the White House Family Theater along with the rest of the White Houses East Wing where the snug, shoe-box-shaped auditorium was located to make way for a new $300 million ballroom. It marks the end of an era in American movie theater history.
Since its conversion from a cloakroom by Franklin Roosevelt in 1942, the private, 40-ish-seat theater has screened everything from newsreels and documentaries to westerns and musicals. It has been through several facelifts, most recently ditching cream and red floral curtains, and beige walls and seating for all-round ornamented with gold molding and dark wood trim following a renovation overseen by first lady Laura Bush in 2004.
The best perk of the White House is not Air Force One or Camp David or anything else, its the wonderful movie theater I get here, then-President Bill Clinton told film critic Roger Ebert in a 1999 .
Jimmy Carter was also a big fan. In a single term, the 39th president screened between this venue and Camp David, starting with All the Presidents Men a movie about the Watergate scandal soon after he was sworn in. Richard Nixon saw Patton, about the controversial World War II Gen. George S. Patton, multiple times during the Vietnam War. Barack Obamas many screenings at the theater ranged from Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom and Selma to Julie & Julia and Star Wars Rogue One. President Trumps picks have included Finding Dory and Sunset Boulevard. John F. Kennedy, who loved James Bond movies, saw From Russia With Love the day before he was assassinated in 1963.

Professors and graduate students gathered at the Teach-In to speak out against the compact.
By , Staffer-in-Training, Oct 24, 2025
Vanderbilt Student Government and members of Vanderbilts chapter of the American Association of University Professors hosted a on Oct. 17 regarding the higher education compact Vanderbilt was sent from the Trump administration. Students and faculty at the event discussed how they believe the compact could endanger academic freedom, education policy and the universitys core values, among other topics.
Jessie Hock, associate English department chair and associate professor of English, opened the Teach-In with contextual remarks. Carwil Bjork-James, associate professor in social movements, indigenous rights and political anthropology, then spoke to the crowd about how he believes that if Vanderbilt agrees to the compact, it could have negative financial impacts for the university.
I think that our administrators are being misled by the promise of more research funding by an administration that is clearly cutting off research funding and restricting it at every level, Bjork-James said.
In an interview with The Hustler, Bjork-James said that the compact will not help ensure Vanderbilt is a space where students and faculty can freely express their thoughts.
I would say faculty are really committed to maintaining this campus as a place where students can speak freely, where students can come here with any political opinion, with any perspective, get an open education and where there are viable places to do scholarship and research and this compact is not the right way to do that, Bjork-James said.
Jada Benn Torres, associate professor in genetics, race and genetic ancestry, followed by speaking about how she believed Vanderbilt signing the compact would limit scientific research and free speech. In a message to The Hustler, Benn Torres said that the compact could contribute to the marginalization of communities and hopes Vanderbilt will continue to be a place where freedom of discussion is practiced.
I am very concerned that the compact will upend academic freedom and freedom of expression. Additionally, there are elements of the compact that further marginalize communities that are already marginalized, Torres said. Overall, I think that the university needs to be a place where we are free to ask difficult questions and grapple with uncomfortable answers.
Rebecca Epstein-Levy, assistant professor of Jewish studies and gender & sexuality studies, spoke about how she believes the compact has anti-trans provisions which would limit her ability to teach and research certain topics about Judaism and sex, sexuality, gender and disability.
Im a Jewish ethicist, and I research and teach courses at the intersection of Jewish text, Jewish thought, and sex, sexuality, gender and disability, Epstein-Levy said. The compacts claim that there are only two genders a claim which is bigoted, venal and spectacularly wrong would make it impossible for me to teach these subjects accurately and responsibly.
Jonathan Gilligan, earth and environmental studies and civil and environmental engineering professor, spoke about how he believes the compact could limit research and what is taught in science classes because topics may offend conservative policies.
Gilligan shared in an interview with The Hustler that he and many of his colleagues are worried about government overreach. They believe that if the government enforces politicized versions of science upon universities, they will not stop with the biology of sex and gender.

Haha, natrlich nicht. Die Person Trump hat mutmasslich eine Aufmerksamkeitsspanne, die unter drei aufeinanderfolgenden ganzen Stzen liegt. Sofern sie nicht von ihm selbst gesprochen sind.

Andrew Ross Sorkin Sees Parallels to 1929 Everywhere He Looks Vanity Fair
On a snowy day in January, BlackRock CEO joined Andrew Ross Sorkin on CNBCs Squawk Box for an interview in Davos, Switzerland, where corporate and political leaders gather for the annual World Economic Forum. While the segment mainly revolved around the BlackRock CEOs plea for s SEC to make it harder for activist shareholders to take on corporations via proxy vote, Sorkin couldnt resist asking for Finks take on the booming cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Are you planning on issuing either a meme coin, ETFs, or anything like that, now that the animal spirits seem to be very much alive he asked.
I think the Sorkin coin, Fink replied. Two hours later, Sorkin was watching the brand-new cryptocurrency, minted by some enterprising meme coiner, soar by millions of dollars. It was wild, he recalls.
Watch Now:
At the time, Sorkin was finishing his latest book, 1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in HistoryAnd How It Shattered a Nation, an extensive account of how and the US government dragged the country into the Great Depression.
So whats the contemporary analog to the old stock pool I think , Sorkin says.
Several months later, over a late-summer coffee, Sorkin and I are discussing the history of the economic collapse and the book itself, in which the parallels to today exist almost down to the person, Fink includedsort of (more on that below). I ask whether the popular 1920s-era stock-pooling practice among Wall Street insiderswhere powerful investors combined their resources and artificially ran up the stock price of a given companybore any similarity to modern-day meme stocks, as online communities drive stock purchases, leading to rapid price oscillation. Completely, Sorkin replies, adding that its happening in both meme stock culture and the world of crypto. So whats the contemporary analog to the old stock pool I think , Sorkin says.
Give the gift of Vanity Fair, plus a free tote.
After his own crypto coin hit the market in January, Sorkin was invited to direct-messaging groups of that nature on X and Signal. Theyre talking about, Im gonna buy in at this, and then youre gonna do this. Im gonna put up $2 million, then youre gonna put up a million. And its up and up and up and up, he tells me of the groups members. Its totally crazy, he says.
