. @abbydphillip is a smart, professional, and hardworking journalist. Not only was her question to Pres Trump not stupid, it was asked in public service because it’s what people want to know. We, as journalists, will press on. I’m honored to work and sometimes brunch with Abby.

Thanks for the respect. I try to be respectful to others and hope I get the same in return, even on social media. LOL. I like engaging with ideas, not personal attacks, so hopefully that is a starting point for future discussions about blackness/American identity/wealth.

I was blown away by the amount of evidence that these inmates amassed of their innocence. But no one listened, until these special integrity units got the case.

@Yamiche looks calm as all get out. It's not easy to ask that kind of question, over and over, to the most powerful person in the country. It's just not.

WATCH: @Yamiche asked President Trump why he held a campaign rally in March as the coronavirus pandemic intensified if, as he says, he "acted very early" to combat virus. "Did I hold a rally? I'm sorry I hold a rally."

He hung out in chatrooms with the Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front, who don’t accept anyone over 25. In Rochester, “black bloc” seemed a teenage fashion fad. In Tulsa, he saw BLM protesters + Trump supporters pray together.

Feeling emotional. I'm grateful to everyone in this great country and all around the world who made this possible. We are going to beat this thing and come back stronger than ever before.

@davidfrum The uncommitted movement is made up of delegates. They are absolutely different people than the marchers who breached the barriers. Arab activists are not a monolith.
