Did you happen to catch tonight’s episode of Wheel of Fortune?! Our very own Youth Programs Instructor, Ben Clark, was on and won with WWE Superstar Big E. Catch him again in the finals this Friday!

We’re so proud of you Ben!

I refuse to be sad or upset about any school losing that chose to employ a man who cheated and left a school’s program in shambles. #notsadforHouston #cheatersneverwin

Our mascot Rex was chosen by our partners to mark the start of INDYCAR season this weekend by raising the checkered flag at the @ims! We can’t wait for a great season of racing and the upcoming Indy 500. #Indy500 #IMS

@SecretaryPete @USDOT Thank you!!!! I’ve been in this position before b/c I didn’t know the system wouldn’t seat me next to my 7yo. It’s unnerving for the parent and incredibly upsetting to the child. This is so overdue and hopefully includes an inclusive definition of family.

If you’re a politician or media figure who sets up the LGBTQ community to be hated and feared - not because any of us ever harmed you but because you find it useful - then don’t you dare act surprised when this kind of violence follows.

Don’t you dare act surprised.

The RT team at Riley is amazing! L has struggled with viral induced asthma from a young age and during our stays at Riley this team shines in so many ways!

Mike Farrell and I today toasting the 50th anniversary of the show that changed our lives - and our brilliant pals who made it what it was. MASH was a great gift to us.

@WIBC_EricBerman As so many others have said - you were the best and so incredibly fair. All the best wishes going forward!

[Audra Blasdel @AudraBlasdel]

@WIBC_EricBerman This is unbelievable. Your reporting has been invaluable, particularly these last 2+ years. Know you absolutely will land on your feet and hope you continue doing all this great work.

@sugarkane417 Thirdly, a large portion of life is not about being fun. A lot of life is about standing up for the rights of others, especially in the face of historical imbalances that have historically favorited CIS white males while leaving others greatly disadvantaged.

100%. This is a specific affront to women and allowing women the right to make choices about themselves and their healthcare. If they’re willing to attack this, every American should be worried about what they’ll go for next.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Forced birth in a country with:

—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations

This isn't about "life." It's about control.

[Audra Blasdel @AudraBlasdel]

More of this…we need so much more of this to happen to make change, even as logical as that change may ultimately be.

The Yankees and the Rays are not posting about tonight’s game on social media. Instead, they are highlighting facts about gun violence. “There are things that are bigger than baseball,” said Jason Zillo, the Yankees’ vice president of communications. https://t.co/47RX7fkWnW

We are sick with sadness about the horrific, preventable shootings that have made headlines over the past week. In New York, 10 lives lost due to racially motivated hatred & just yesterday at least 19 students & two teachers in Texas were gunned down in their school.

@MicahPollak @PUMA Uggghh…that’s brutal!

Hate that there’s a weather delay for lightning at @IMS, but kudos to the track’s audio guy for the theme music… Thunderstruck & It’s Raining Men most recently. 👏⛈
