Former President Bill Clinton took a trip to Oklahoma City on Saturday morning to attend a ceremony remembering the lives lost at the deadly Oklahoma City bombing.
While speaking at the ceremony, Clinton shared, “I still remember as if it were 30 minutes ago, coming here with Hillary to that memorial service and saying: ‘You have lost too much, but you have not lost everything. You have certainly not lost America, and we will be with you for as many tomorrows as it takes.”
He added, “I do think we’ve kept that commitment.”
The deadly Oklahoma City bombing occurred on April 19, 1995, after a truck bomb exploded at the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, which claimed the lives of 168 people, including 19 children.
While delivering his speech at the ceremony, Clinton’s hands appear to shake uncontrollably.
Clinton previously addressed the hand tremors and said he does not have Parkinson’s.
“If I had Parkinson’s, I wanted to know so I could prepare. And I had it tested and the doctor said ‘no.’ He says it’s just a normal aging phenomenon,” Clinton previously said.

Per CBS:
Thirty years after the deadliest homegrown attack in U.S. history, former President Bill Clinton returned to Oklahoma City on Saturday to remember the people who were killed and comfort those affected by the bombing.
Clinton was president on April 19, 1995, when a truck bomb exploded, destroying a nine-story federal building in downtown Oklahoma City. He delivered the keynote address at a remembrance ceremony near the Oklahoma City National Memorial Museum.
Clinton, now 78, was widely praised for how he helped the city grapple with its grief in the wake of the bombing, which killed 168 people, including 19 children. He says it was a day in his presidency that he will never forget.
“I still remember as if it were 30 minutes ago, coming here with Hillary to that memorial service and saying: ‘You have lost too much, but you have not lost everything. You have certainly not lost America, and we will be with you for as many tomorrows as it takes,’” Clinton said, recalling his first visit to Oklahoma City just days after the bombing, when he spoke at a memorial service for the for the victims. “I do think we’ve kept that commitment.”
In the last two decades, the 78-year-old Clinton has faced several health scares.
In 2021, he was hospitalized for a sepsis infection, and in 2004, he underwent a quadruple bypass operation on his heart.
