Fifty yrs ago today was my 25th birthday in Saigon. Never thought I’d see it. I arrived in Vietnam a year earlier, and had so many close calls, I shouldn’t have lived. But I did. Every year after was a gift. When I hit 50 I doubled up, and today, on my 75th, I scored a triple!

Here in Arlington at sunset today thinking of Joe Rosenthal, my friend and the great photographer who made the iconic picture on Iwo Jima that inspired this magnificent memorial —this sculpture and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall are two places I consider sacred.

Note to @realDonaldTrump : In 1964 extremist Republican candidate Barry Goldwater lost the popular vote to LBJ by 61%, who also got 90% of the electoral college, (486 to 52). It was the biggest majority since 1820. Just FYI. @jwgop @gtconway3d @ProjectLincoln @murphymike

Every year, the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation bestows an award meant to honor acts of political courage. But foundation leaders are too cowardly to honor Liz Cheney for her courage taking on Trump. It would be funny if it weren't so lame.

Sen. Robert Kennedy was shot by an assassin in L.A. 56 yrs ago today and died the next day. RFK inspired me to choose political photography as a career. It has been all about the history. Made this a few weeks before he was killed. @KerryKennedyRFK @gtconway3d @mikebarnicle

. @BeschlossDC 's used my pic of Pres. Ford right after he pardoned Nixon, Sept. 8, '74. Ford was getting calls from political leaders who privately told him that he did the right thing, then blasted him in public. I know, I was in the room as he got them. @CCP_UArizona

Against the backdrop of #Sedona , @SenJohnMcCain , wife @cindymccain at his side, suspended his 2000 campaign. This may have been my most elegant picture of a candidate ending a quest, but as we know, he roared back eight years later to win his Party's nomination.

Trump was asked by @CNN 's @Acosta about US cases passing the 1 million mark. Trump predicted in Feb. that US cases would go down to zero. "How did we get from your prediction of zero to 1 million?" Trump said, "Well, it will go down to zero ultimately." omg.
