Wearing masks at all times is so important!

Let’s make a deal, Mr. President: You release your college transcript, I’ll release mine, and we’ll see who was the better student. Loser has to fund the Post Office.

And after we work to command victory in November, I need folks to realize that there’s no going back to brunch. We have a whole new world to build. We cannot accept going back to the way things were, & that includes the Dem party. We must deliver transformative, material change.

As a political spouse you walk a very blurry and confusing tight rope during interviews with regard to what you can and cannot say. Watching Dr. Jill Biden shut this down just cured my allergies and cleared my skin.

Retweet if you’ve paid more in federal income tax than ⁦Donald J. Trump,⁩ LOL!! What a fraud. It’s likely he even listed his children as “consultants” w/business deals to avoid paying taxes too! And despite all of that, he’s likely broke too. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

I've lived paycheck to paycheck. When I couldn't pay rent, I was evicted. When I had COVID-19, I fell into medical debt. When I couldn't afford my taxes, my nursing license was suspended. Trump didn't pay taxes, but he gets free housing, healthcare, and the presidency.

Biden says to Trump what millions of Americans have wanted to say: "Will you shut up, man?"

Pence: Stop playing politics with people’s lives Trump: You better vote for me if you want a relief bill

Republicans are Very Mad (again) about my appearance. This time they’re mad that I look good in borrowed clothes (again). Listen, if Republicans want pointers on looking your best, I’m happy to share. Tip #1: Drink water and don’t be racist

I ❤️ NYC. Penn Station is currently broadcasting Mozart Bb Duo, as performed by Grumiaux and Pelliccia.

So let’s get it done.💪🏿 Request your ballot: ballotrequest.sos.ga.gov 🗳 #gapol

We play on because we must! Thanks, Classic FM! classicfm.com/composers/moza…

Like all of you, I’ve been feeling so many emotions since yesterday. I tried to put my thoughts down here:

President Biden’s Treasury Department aims to speed up the process of adding Harriet Tubman to the front of the $20 bill after the Trump administration halted the currency redesign, the White House press secretary said on Monday. nyti.ms/3sVOWGV

If 25,000 fans can watch the Super Bowl in person, I hope classical concerts can come back soon...

Great conversation with @JoanEspositoCHI on @WCPT820 Chicago radio about my upcoming Chicago Symphony debut. Thanks, Joan! Chicago Symphony Orchestra Stella Chen
