This would have been unthinkable before @CaitlinClark22 arrived at Iowa and changed everything. This isn’t just a sports story. This is an American cultural story. It’s about Title IX and what happens when a nation gives girls and women a chance to play sports too.

VA Sen. Tim Kaine @timkaine introduces amendment to pull provision for WV-to-VA pipeline from the debt ceiling bill. Says Congress putting its "thumb on the scale" of the process "is the definition of unfair and opens the door to corruption."

Congrats to the legendary @dionnewarwick I thoroughly enjoyed the ‘Don’t Make Me Over’ documentary on CNN! But why no mention of “Then Came You” with the Spinners — that was a #1 song! And Dionne hosting Solid Gold? CHEERS 2 Dionne getting all her flowers! 🥂
