This white panic about "teaching Critical Race Theory in schools" (when it's not taught in anything lower than a collegiate seminar) would be funny if it wasn't for the inevitability that everything from Toni Morrison to George Washington Carver is going to be branded as CRT.

Kinda heartbreaking to see Chuba apologize while Gundy smugly talks a whole lot of nothing. Everything that's wrong about college football: right here in 51 seconds.

@RepThomasMassie My God, you're a jackass. And not the fun, Johnny Knoxville variant of jackass, either.

The inability of ESPN to defend and design a role for a talent like @jemelehill is an indictment of ESPN.

On June 29th, E. Jean Carroll told the world that @realDonaldTrump raped her. His response was "she's not my type"....assumedly to rape. This should have been the story of the summer/the basis for a congressional investigation. Instead it barely made the news cycle for a week.

Pence won’t commit to a peaceful transfer of power either. That’s the entire debate. Everything else is conversation.

@realDonaldTrump You never responded to Gregg Popovich, Steve Kerr or even Eminem but when it's Jay-Z, your nasty twitter finger in on full itch. What possibly could be the difference....

Easily the best halftime show ever, after Prince. Yes it will launch 10000 critiques - and the NFL is beyond shady for projecting Black culture while denying Black opportunity - but that was epic.

@SheriffClarke I've seen him do exactly that. Unlike you, who arrested people in "the hood" and watched them die in your jails. Was that just tough love?
