@AmbWuJianghao He’s doing an imitation of Donald Trump, you know, but yes he’s funny.
He could do Kim Jong Un too 🚀.

@QuantvmBlaze @ZhangTaisu Actually eight gold medals, seven world records. His 100 fly victory wasn’t a WR.

I have a story today in Politico Magazine, looking at the antigovernment #Chinaprotests in #China this past week and in 1989.

One-China principle is part of postwar int'l order & a general int'l consensus. As a country that thinks of itself as a champion of “rules-based int'l order,” the US should naturally abide by the #OneChinaPrinciple. Read my op-ed on The Washington Post: https://t.co/9dBLLizcvS

@heetermaria As an older, experienced journalist I will note that we didn’t have the internet for the first 10 years of our careers. #BeRealNot

It is incredible to observe how fast the tech world changes.

Companies which seem unassailable suddenly disappear into footnotes of history.

50 yrs ago today AP’s #NickUt took this photo of #KimPhuc, “#napalmgirl,” running terrified & naked after a mistaken napalm attack on her SVietnam village. 4 days ago was great to see Nick who has visited my class & an honor to meet Kim Phuc who spoke at my college’s graduation.

Full thread by @patrickwitty pulling together the origins+updates of all views of the Man vs Tank confrontation at Tiananmen Square 43 yrs ago this week. Patrick started this w/the first comprehensive compilation of the pics in 2009. https://t.co/bMkrXri1f0

[Terril Jones @Terril_Jones]

@balupuppy @patrickwitty @nytimes Yes and yes — Troops toward the back of the tanks were firing; I don’t know in what direction. People were scattering, and the guy at right is ducking.

[Terril Jones @Terril_Jones]

@XiaoLan17 @patrickwitty I stayed about four or five weeks after this before returning to Japan where I was living.

[Terril Jones @Terril_Jones]

I need to pay more attention to Twitter. Former NYTimes photo editor @patrickwitty tweeted my June 1989 photo of the Man vs Tank photo from Tiananmen Square yesterday, and it’s been retweeted 301 times already.
