The kindest man I ever met has left us. Along with Warren Christopher (and my own family) he was my role model for public service, diplomacy, wisdom, dignity, and integrity. He was our President, George H.W. Bush, now resting (and surely laughing) w/Barbara, other angels. RIP.

Well done, Banksy, @Sothebys. To the buyer: this was #PerformanceArt at its best. You pay for what you get. In this case that includes millions of new fans of Banksy's work, a partially shredded Banksy, and (possibly unwitting) collaboration in one of his stunts. Priceless.
That #sublime moment when an extraordinary instrument (restored Steinway Model D), an exceptional, visionary pianist @mbrownmusic, deep and dreamy compositions (Medtner's 2nd Improv, Op. 47), and perfect acoustics (#atSAAM) converge.
I’m immensely proud of today’s passionate and articulate #MarchforourLives students! With their fierce resolve, courage, and smarts to provoke change, our country’s future will be safe in their hands! Thank you, students!!! You have the power! (March and vote!!)
In a beautiful homage to @GerryAndersonTV, #ThunderbirdsAreGo just became reality! Brilliant @elonmusk and @SpaceX team master perfect #FalconHeavyLaunch, with 2 Falcon boosters landing in a breathaking pas de deux! Private space travel, here we come! youtu.be/9p6PpDxjCJ8
