00:00:09,509 --> 00:00:11,179
This week was Maker Week.

00:00:11,177 --> 00:00:12,977

11
00:00:17,150 --> 00:00:19,090
Mr. Earnest: It was
also Pollinator Week.

12
00:00:25,125 --> 00:00:27,265
The President, of course,
was a busy bee himself.

13
00:00:27,260 --> 00:00:29,000
He stopped by a
Congressional baseball game

14
00:00:28,995 --> 00:00:30,965
and a Congressional
picnic --

15
00:00:30,964 --> 00:00:32,664
The President: I can't do a selfie with everybody.

16
00:00:32,665 --> 00:00:34,035
(laughter)

17
00:00:34,033 --> 00:00:35,133
Mr. Earnest: --
congratulated the first

18
00:00:35,135 --> 00:00:37,975
class of My Brother's
Keeper mentees --

19
00:00:37,971 --> 00:00:39,371
The President: -- to
loose these guys up.

20
00:00:39,372 --> 00:00:40,572
(laughter)

21
00:00:40,573 --> 00:00:41,673
The President: They're
always looking so serious.

22
00:00:41,674 --> 00:00:43,214
Mr. Earnest: -- and presided
over the ceremonial swearing

23
00:00:43,209 --> 00:00:45,379

Attorney General.

24
00:00:45,378 --> 00:00:46,948
Attorney General Lynch:I
will support and defend

25
00:00:46,946 --> 00:00:49,146
the Constitution of
the United States.

26
00:00:49,149 --> 00:00:50,989
Mr. Earnest: Meanwhile, the
First lady crossed the Atlantic

27
00:00:50,984 --> 00:00:53,424
in the name of Let Girls
Learn and Let's Move.

28
00:00:53,420 --> 00:00:57,790
That's June 2th to June 8th,
or "Her Map and Compass".

29
00:00:57,791 --> 00:01:00,691
The President: The law is her
map, justice her compass.

30
00:01:00,693 --> 00:01:02,793
Mr. Earnest: On the eve of
this week's West Wing Week,

31
00:01:02,796 --> 00:01:05,796
White House Staff prepared for
the National Week of Making.

32
00:01:05,799 --> 00:01:08,969
A week to lift up makers and
inspire students and adults

33
00:01:08,968 --> 00:01:10,108
across the United States.

34
00:01:10,103 --> 00:01:11,003
Female Speaker: Do
you like to take

35
00:01:11,004 --> 00:01:13,104
things apart just to
see how they work?

36
00:01:13,106 --> 00:01:15,676
Do you like to solve problems
close to home or far away?

37
00:01:15,675 --> 00:01:18,445
Mr. Earnest: To learn new skills
and pursue careers in design,

38
00:01:18,445 --> 00:01:22,585
advanced manufacturing,
STEM, and entrepreneurship.

39
00:01:22,582 --> 00:01:23,512
Female Speaker: All
right, have fun,

40
00:01:23,516 --> 00:01:25,716
and we can't wait to
see what you'll make.

41
00:01:25,718 --> 00:01:26,818
Mr. Earnest: That evening,
the President stopped

42
00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:29,290
by Nationals Park, home of
Major League Baseball's

43
00:01:29,289 --> 00:01:30,889
Washington Nationals.

44
00:01:30,890 --> 00:01:32,990
To spend some time
with past presidents,

45
00:01:32,992 --> 00:01:34,762
as well as members of
Congress from both sides

46
00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:38,761
of the aisle, who came together
to play some baseball.

47
00:01:38,765 --> 00:01:41,305
On Friday in the Situation
Room, the President received

48
00:01:41,301 --> 00:01:43,441
a briefing on the drought
in the American west.

49
00:01:43,436 --> 00:01:44,436
The President: Good
morning, everybody.

50
00:01:44,437 --> 00:01:45,807
Mr. Earnest: Monday
was a special day,

51
00:01:45,805 --> 00:01:47,975
as the President congratulated
a group of young men that

52
00:01:47,974 --> 00:01:50,174
he's gotten to know and
mentor over the past year

53
00:01:50,176 --> 00:01:52,776
as part of his My Brother's
Keeper initiative.

54
00:01:52,779 --> 00:01:55,449
Though the mentorship is ending,
it's just the beginning

55
00:01:55,448 --> 00:01:57,588
for these ambitious
college-bound youngsters.

56
00:01:57,584 --> 00:02:00,524
The President: Although they
will not be White House mentees

57
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,920
after this class, they will
always be part of my family.

58
00:02:04,924 --> 00:02:08,964
You know, this idea that
somehow we succeed just on our

59
00:02:08,962 --> 00:02:11,402
own is just not true.

60
00:02:11,397 --> 00:02:12,467
Nobody does.

61
00:02:12,465 --> 00:02:14,165
Not even the President
of the United States.

62
00:02:14,167 --> 00:02:16,437
Maybe especially not the
President of the United States.

63
00:02:16,436 --> 00:02:18,476
Mr. Earnest: On Tuesday,
the White House beekeepers

64
00:02:18,471 --> 00:02:22,511
celebrated honeybee pollination,
which adds more than 15 billion

65
00:02:22,509 --> 00:02:26,249
dollars in value to
agricultural crops each year.

66
00:02:26,246 --> 00:02:29,516
Check out this bee-autiful
bee roll of the beloved

67
00:02:29,516 --> 00:02:32,686
pollinators abuzz on the
White House grounds.

68
00:02:32,685 --> 00:02:35,125
On Tuesday, we'll also take
you to the United Kingdom,

69
00:02:35,121 --> 00:02:37,561
where our special guest
narrator will tell you

70
00:02:37,557 --> 00:02:38,897
what she's been up to.

71
00:02:38,892 --> 00:02:40,732
Mrs. Obama: I'm in London,
talking with leaders in the

72
00:02:40,727 --> 00:02:44,127
U.K. about ways we can
work together to improve access

73
00:02:44,130 --> 00:02:47,700
to education and empower
girls around the world.

74
00:02:47,700 --> 00:02:50,770
That's what my Let Girls Learn
initiative is all about.

75
00:02:50,770 --> 00:02:53,440
Find out how you can help
change the lives of girls

76
00:02:53,439 --> 00:02:58,249
around the world at
LetGirlsLearn.PeaceCorps.gov.

77
00:02:58,244 --> 00:03:00,084
Mr. Earnest: On Wednesday,
back in the United States,

78
00:03:00,079 --> 00:03:02,749
the President convened a
ceremony at the Warner Theatre

79
00:03:02,749 --> 00:03:05,189
in Washington, D.C. to
formally install

80
00:03:05,184 --> 00:03:07,254
Loretta Lynch as
Attorney General.

81
00:03:07,253 --> 00:03:11,193
She was sworn in by Supreme
Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor

82
00:03:11,190 --> 00:03:11,930
-- Attorney General
Loretta Lynch: I,

83
00:03:11,925 --> 00:03:12,755

Mr. Earnest: -- on the
Bible of Frederick Douglas

00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:15,057
Attorney General Lynch:
-- so help me God.

86
00:03:15,061 --> 00:03:17,231
(applause)

87
00:03:17,230 --> 00:03:18,460
The President:
Frederick Douglas -

88
00:03:18,464 --> 00:03:19,434
Female Speaker: It's great.

89
00:03:19,432 --> 00:03:21,072
The President: It
is; that's amazing.

90
00:03:21,067 --> 00:03:22,367
Mr. Earnest: Later, the
President picked up the phone --

91
00:03:22,368 --> 00:03:23,138
The President: Coach!

92
00:03:23,136 --> 00:03:24,306
Mr. Earnest: -- to
congratulate the NBA champion

93
00:03:24,304 --> 00:03:25,434
Golden State Warriors.

94
00:03:25,438 --> 00:03:28,738
The President: To see you win
with such a great team

95
00:03:28,741 --> 00:03:31,881
and a great spirit;
so much fun.

96
00:03:31,878 --> 00:03:33,818
It's clear that you did
an unbelievable job.

97
00:03:33,813 --> 00:03:35,213
Hey man!

98
00:03:35,214 --> 00:03:36,214
Stephen Curry: What's going on?

99
00:03:36,215 --> 00:03:37,155
The President: Congratulations.

100
00:03:37,150 --> 00:03:37,780
You're going on!

101
00:03:37,784 --> 00:03:38,854
What do you mean,
what's going on, man?

102
00:03:38,851 --> 00:03:39,591
You're going on.

103
00:03:39,586 --> 00:03:40,286
Stephen Curry: Thanks.

104
00:03:40,286 --> 00:03:42,226
Thank you very much; I woke
up today hoping it was

105
00:03:42,221 --> 00:03:43,561
still real, and it is.

106
00:03:43,556 --> 00:03:44,656
The President: It is, man.

107
00:03:44,657 --> 00:03:49,167
The -- you had a good year, man.

108
00:03:49,162 --> 00:03:50,492
Stephen Curry: It's
not bad, right?

109
00:03:50,496 --> 00:03:53,136
The President: It's a
good year. (laughs)

110
00:03:53,132 --> 00:03:54,532
Mr. Earnest: The President later
welcomed to the Oval Office

111
00:03:54,534 --> 00:03:58,904
the recipients of the 2012 and
2013 Presidential Awards for

112
00:03:58,905 --> 00:04:01,945
Excellence in Science, Math,
and Engineering Mentoring,

113
00:04:01,941 --> 00:04:04,081
and got a modeled microbe from
one of his science advisors.

114
00:04:04,077 --> 00:04:04,707
The President: Oh!

115
00:04:04,711 --> 00:04:05,381
My new microbe.

116
00:04:05,378 --> 00:04:06,078
Which one's this?

117
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:09,079
I already had a flesh-eating
bacteria with those people;

118
00:04:09,082 --> 00:04:10,452
had a little knife and fork.

119
00:04:10,450 --> 00:04:11,950
(laughter)

120
00:04:11,951 --> 00:04:12,991
Female Speaker: And what's this?

121
00:04:12,986 --> 00:04:13,386
Male Speaker: I love it.

122
00:04:13,386 --> 00:04:14,786
Jo Handelsman: This
one is cyanobacteria.

123
00:04:14,787 --> 00:04:17,087
It's one of the first
oxygen-producing organisms

124
00:04:17,090 --> 00:04:17,860
on Earth.

125
00:04:17,857 --> 00:04:18,727
The President: Very important.

126
00:04:18,725 --> 00:04:20,465
Jo Handelsman: Gave
us the ozone layer,

127
00:04:20,460 --> 00:04:21,530
the oxygen environment.

128
00:04:21,527 --> 00:04:22,127
(laughter)

129
00:04:22,128 --> 00:04:23,098
Female Speaker: And what are
you going to do with it?

130
00:04:23,096 --> 00:04:24,096
The President: Oh, I plan
to own a collection.

131
00:04:24,097 --> 00:04:24,997
(laughter)

132
00:04:24,998 --> 00:04:26,428
Mr. Earnest: The day
didn't end there.

133
00:04:26,432 --> 00:04:28,572
The President welcomed
3,000 guests to the annual

134
00:04:28,568 --> 00:04:31,508
Congressional Picnic,
opening up the south lawn

135
00:04:31,504 --> 00:04:33,674
of the White House to lawmakers
and their families --

136
00:04:33,673 --> 00:04:34,843
Male Speake: Hello, world!

137
00:04:34,841 --> 00:04:36,711
Mr. Earnest: -- for some
barbeque and some games.

138
00:04:36,709 --> 00:04:39,309
The President: Obviously,
democracy can be contentious.

139
00:04:39,312 --> 00:04:42,352
There are times where
people have deep principle

140
00:04:42,348 --> 00:04:45,888
disagreements, but I hope
that events like today remind

141
00:04:45,885 --> 00:04:48,585
us that ultimately we're
all on the same team,

142
00:04:48,588 --> 00:04:50,028
and that's the American team.

143
00:04:50,023 --> 00:04:51,023
See you guys.

144
00:04:51,024 --> 00:04:52,454
Have fun!

145
00:04:52,458 --> 00:04:55,098
Mr. Earnest: On Thursday,
the First Lady was in Milan.

146
00:04:55,094 --> 00:04:56,594
Let's go back to our
West Wing Week

147
00:04:56,596 --> 00:04:59,136
correspondent to find
out why she's there.

148
00:04:59,132 --> 00:05:02,172
Mrs. Obama: I'm proud to be
attending Expo Milan to talk

149
00:05:02,168 --> 00:05:05,068
about the successes we've had
in the United States through

150
00:05:05,071 --> 00:05:08,441
our Let's Move initiative,
but also to learn from other

151
00:05:08,441 --> 00:05:10,611
countries about the work
they're doing on these

152
00:05:10,610 --> 00:05:13,610
issues and because, no
matter where we live, we all

153
00:05:13,613 --> 00:05:17,483
want healthy, nutritious
foods for our families.

154
00:05:19,886 --> 00:05:22,026
Mr. Earnest: Back in Washington,
D.C., the President spoke

155
00:05:22,021 --> 00:05:25,091
about the tragic shooting
that targeted the historical

156
00:05:25,091 --> 00:05:28,891
Emanuel AME Church in
Charleston, South Carolina.

157
00:05:28,895 --> 00:05:32,965
The President: Now is the time
for mourning and for healing.

158
00:05:32,965 --> 00:05:36,165
But let's be clear:
at some point,

159
00:05:36,169 --> 00:05:39,009
we as a country will have to
reckon with the fact that

160
00:05:39,005 --> 00:05:41,505
this type of mass violence
does not happen in other

161
00:05:41,507 --> 00:05:42,947
advanced countries.

162
00:05:42,942 --> 00:05:45,642
It is in our power to
do something about it.

163
00:05:45,645 --> 00:05:47,285
Mr. Earnest: So stay
engaged with us online,

164
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:49,150
and remember you can find
out more information about

165
00:05:49,148 --> 00:05:51,188
any of these topics,
and see complete videos

of your West Wing Week.

169
00:06:04,731 --> 00:06:05,701
Mrs. Obama: What's her name?

170
00:06:05,698 --> 00:06:06,598
Male Speaker: Kali.

171
00:06:06,599 --> 00:06:08,369
Mrs. Obama: Hey Kali.

172
00:06:08,367 --> 00:06:10,737
