[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

Barack: You told me all those years ago that you couldn’t promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life. Of course, you outdid yourself and managed to give me both.

Eight years in the crucible, and not once did you melt from the heat. Not once did you let it harden you. Instead, you used it to reveal your truest essence: your stubborn optimism and unflinching courage, your dazzling brilliance and unpretentious decency, your ferocious work ethic and absolutely unshakable moral fiber.

At this point I am frustrated because i had literally used the same visa to enter the UK two weeks prior. I told them that they were mistaken and even showed them the entry stamp from when i entered Heathrow.

They still refused. So I asked to speak with a supervisor.

@goneers The same documents aren't required. Real ID calls for marriage licenses /divorce decrees to track name changes. The SAVE Act does not. Acceptance of those are left to each state. If a state doesn't allow for them, then you need a passport which =poll tax and is unconstitutional.

#Tariffs on your mind? As @realDonaldTrump proposes new tariffs, how do #supplychains navigate? EY's Courtney Rickert McCaffrey joined me on @SCMR's Talking Supply Chain podcast earlier this year to talk scenario planning for today’s geopolitical world. https://t.co/7i58RdqXc6

@AgentSelf99B @cwilliams73 That's a completely shitty cop out. The term is no less offensive coming from the left than it is coming from the right. It is still demeaning, dehumanizing, and unnecessary.

@Dell is using #AI to create a more #inclusive experience for its employees. In Brazil, deaf and hard-of-hearing associates can access critical information thanks to LISA https://t.co/zo0L47bQMA

@HamiltonMusical From a song that didnt make the show - "you have invented a new kind of stupid; a damage you can never undo kind of stupid; an open a the cages at the zoo kind of stupid"
When my teenage son goes out with friends I often tell him not to invent a new kind of stupid.

@LindseyGrahamSC The question isn't if you stand ready to vote on the measures it's if you stand ready to vote for them.

Had plenty of reasons to justify not going to the gym this morning, but I still went. It may not seem like much to die-hard gym goers but it's a small victory for me. #buildingahabit @EDGEFitnessGym

@ariellelb This is why coaches just yell last names. Although that does not help when you have siblings. Lol
