A true friend
As the saying goes, show me your friends and I will show you your future. There is someone who will never abandon you, who has remained by your side for decades, and to whose presence you are so accustomed to that it’s only when you turned your head,

[Emily Y. Wu @emilyywu]

I cannot overstate what it means to see my President @iingwen speaking and engaging here with such dignity - and normalcy that which most other world leaders enjoy on a regular basis.

@OverDrive1050 who is the speech writer please?

[Nancy Pelosi @SpeakerPelosi]

By traveling to Taiwan, we honor our commitment to democracy: reaffirming that the freedoms of Taiwan — and all democracies — must be respected.

Read my opinion piece in the @washingtonpost on why I’m leading a Congressional delegation to Taiwan.

America’s solidarity with the 23 million people of Taiwan is more important today than ever, as the world faces a choice between autocracy and democracy.

Just watch this video. Just watch.

@jencheng625 and I wrote a preview on @drbentu new cool paper on histone acetylation dynamics in response to carbon starvation in @MolecularCell Check it out!

Check out our new paper on how the histone H3 enzyme activity ties into Fe-S cluster biology & may contribute to pathology of Friedreich’s ataxia.

@mariancw Thank you!

[蔡英文 Tsai Ing-wen @iingwen]

Today is our 🇹🇼 National Day, a time to look back on everything our country has achieved over the last year & show our appreciation for the people of #Taiwan. I'll link to the live stream of our annual celebration starting from 8:50 (Taipei time), with my address at 10:25.

Thinking tonight about all the Afghans who only knew what life was like over the past 20 years. There was violence, yes, but also hope and opportunities. Now both are gone, especially for girls and women.

[Jen Cheng 鄭真 @jencheng625]

@cptwei @formosanafro Go Pens go!

[Jen Cheng 鄭真 @jencheng625]

@NewlandSara @emilyywu @ghostislandme @FreddyLim Absolutely agree. That episode is what I would recommend to anyone who is interested in knowing more about Taiwan. “We are a nation still in formation”. How fortunate and exciting that we still get to decide what kind of (progressive) country we want to be.

Thank you! Friends helping friends

[State Department Spokesperson 2013-2025 @statedeptspox_a]

Wheels up! Our donation of 2.5 million vaccine doses is on the way to Taiwan, whose health partnership with the U.S. helped save lives here and around the world. @StateDept is proud to support @POTUS’ commitment to help the world defeat COVID-19.

[Siavash Kurdistani @VashKurdistani]

We’re happy to report how the histone H3 enzymatic activity and Cu(I) might underlie the pathology of a human disease. Thank you to @OA_Campos @NarsisAttar @jencheng625 M. Vogelauer and collaborators @StefanSchmolli1 @Merchant_Lab who did the work! 1/2 https://t.co/SUuscuzUrX

[Jen Cheng 鄭真 @jencheng625]

@emilyywu And they rehearsed this beforehand. So proud.
