A number of administration officials, including Vice President JD Vance, took to social media to wish President Donald Trump a happy birthday.
“Happy Birthday to the GOAT. Looking forward to celebrating later today at the UFC fight!” Vance posted to X on Sunday, referencing the historic UFC Freedom 250 event being held on the White House grounds.
The vice president was not the only senior official to recognize the president’s birthday, as many Cabinet members offered their best wishes for the day.
“Happy birthday to the COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF DONALD J. TRUMP,” said Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
“Happy Birthday, Mr. President! Your unwavering leadership, courage, and commitment to the American people have inspired a renewed focus on the health and well-being of our nation,” wrote Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“It is a privilege to serve in your Cabinet as we work together to Make America Healthy Again and build a stronger, healthier future for every American. Wishing you a wonderful birthday and another year of strength, success, and service to our great nation,” he continued.
Wishing Trump a “Happy birthday,” the United States Department of State posted a video featuring a younger Trump giving his opinions on the presidential office during an old interview.
“That one man could turn this country around. That one proper president could turn this country around. I firmly believe that,” Trump had said.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R-Texas) also sent the commander-in-chief well wishes, calling him the Lone Star State’s “favorite President.”
“Happy Birthday to President Trump – Texas’ favorite President,” Abbott said. “Texas backs Trump and Trump backs Texas, to the border and beyond.”
Beyond political figures, those with a strong personal relationship with the president also recognized the day.
“Happy birthday Dad! Love you!” said Ivanka Trump, the president’s oldest daughter.
Singer Lee Greenwood, known for the iconic song “God Bless the U.S.A.,” also wished the commander-in-chief, whom he called a friend, a happy birthday.
“Happy Birthday, Mr. President! It is an honor to call you a friend. Thank you for your leadership, your courage, and your love for America,” the award-winning country artist said.
“Wishing you a wonderful birthday. Looking forward to seeing you today at UFC Freedom 250!” he continued.
Overseas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to social media as well to recognize the day, emphasizing not only the president’s birthday, but also the upcoming anniversary of American independence.
“Happy birthday Donald. This year your birthday comes at an auspicious time. America celebrates 250 years of freedom – a great nation built on liberty and faith,” the prime minister said.
“I wish you continued strength and vigor as you lead America towards a bright future of peace through strength, and as we continue to bring the U.S.-Israel alliance to ever greater heights,” he continued.
June 14th is packed full, featuring not only the president’s birthday and the massive UFC Freedom 250 Main Card event, but it also celebrates Flag Day, the adoption of the “Stars and Stripes” as the nation’s flag.
