In a post published at 20:38 UTC, Kim commented on recent political tensions regarding the Federal Reserve: “Let me tell you why Trump is picking fights with Jerome Powell and why we need an independent Fed.”

Later that evening at 20:46 UTC, Kim drew attention to the case of Erfan Soltani in Iran. He wrote: “Erfan Soltani; remember that name. He is at risk of being executed by the Iranian regime.

He didn’t engage in violence; he only sought the same freedoms any of our families would want. The Iranian regime has shown it will do anything to silence its people and keep power.

I am”
