John Quincy Adams

The Notorious JQA. 6th President, Secretary of State, Ambassador galore. Great lover of Abolition, Suffrage, Boston, Quincy, and Harvard College.

I take no pride in being the most intelligent POTUS to preside over our great nation. I do relish in defeating @NotoriousPTJ though. Thank you @moneywisecom

[Moneywise @moneywisecom]

You'd think being highly intelligent would be a requirement to hold office. But that's not always the case it seems.

People will often be polite to you in person, while advancing policies that harm you and your family. You will be polite to them in turn, but you need not stand for such harms. Instead, you push back, honestly and emphatically. So it goes, in the public square.

3 years ago MIT grad student Katie Bouman led the creation of a new algorithm to produce the first-ever image of a black hole.

Today, that image was released.

Tip of the hat to MIT's Katie Bouman for her contribution to today's big announcement!

[John Quincy Adams @NotoriousJQA]

She deserves her hair rewards! Katie Bouman helped the world see a black hole. Fans want ‘a rightful seat in history’ for her. https://t.co/cEaGnCKl7p

When people are scared they turn to the right. Right wing strategy is clearly focused on keeping people scared. The inability to combat fear will be the downfall of humanity.

with the assistance of my Mamma I soon found it out and find it a very useful thing”

I was once the oldest living President. Bravo @peanut_brigade for taking in the mantel.

[Bill Clinton @BillClinton]

Congratulations to President Carter on becoming the oldest living President in history. May your new title and good deeds continue for many years to come.

Here is some free writing advice: Stop Not Writing. You can turn off the tv for one hour. (The breaking news is that no one knows anything yet.) And in that hour, you can get 45 minutes of bad writing done, and this will change your whole day. Just one bad sentence after another.

Found out today that I’ve been named Distinguished Professor of History at my school. I didn’t think I’d ever merit something like this. And I still wonder if I’m truly worthy. But fellow #twitterstorians thank you for being such great inspiration and encouragement.

Honestly, I’m withholding judgement of the Mueller Report until I see what citation style he ultimately chose. #twitterstorians
