1/ President Trump, who never served in the military, canceled a 2018 visit to a cemetery where American troops are buried, saying: “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

Now we know what he hid from his own middle and low income supporters: While they struggled to pay bills, he paid less fed income taxes than nearly all of them. What a con. He "paid $750 in federal income taxes" in 2016. He often paid nothing. #TrumpTaxes nytimes.com/interactive/20…

In 2016 & ‘17, I paid thousands of dollars a year in taxes *as a bartender.* Trump paid $750. He contributed less to funding our communities than waitresses & undocumented immigrants. Donald Trump has never cared for our country more than he cares for himself. A walking scam.

You know how some writers win multiple Pulitzers or Bookers? Apparently today I was a Jeopardy answer for the THIRD time, which is almost the same 🥳🏆

My memoir, A Promised Land, is out today. I hope you’ll read it. My goal was to give you some insight into the events and people that shaped me during the early years of my presidency. Most of all, I hope it inspires you to see yourself playing a role in shaping a better world.

I'm thrilled to share that my new novel ROMANTIC COMEDY will be out 4/11/23. It's a love letter to SNL, a celebration of crushes and feeling smitten, and the happy place that's been my escape for the last few years. Perhaps it will also be yours? penguinrandomhouse.com/books/551109/r…
