I love @jameelajamil and how she's using her platform to break down norms surrounding women's bodies (see @_iweigh), but I'm so here for this speech. If you have little boys - give it a watch. makers.com/playlists/5c589eb…

That’s not what @staceyabrams said at the phone bank stop on Tuesday. She did not say anything about undocumented people “voting,” and said they were part of the community of Georgia. I was there and have audio from it. #gapol #gagov
During a rally w/ @SenWarren, radical Stacey Abrams declared that illegal immigrants are part of the "Blue Wave" and she's banking on their votes to win on November 6th. RT to let your friends know that Abrams is TOO EXTREME for Georgia! ow.ly/ZbrJ30mdXG6 #gapol #tcot

Was just thinking about who gets to define politeness and civility today... xitter.cf/thedailyshow/status/10…

I don't follow much news about FIFA, but what is up with this replay nonsense? Part of the beauty of soccer is the live calling. Please explain. But don't. Because it's dumb. #WorldCup18
How can you not be rooting for #Iceland in this game? They are playing w/ such heart against soccer royalty.
