For more than a century, one of Washington's best-kept secrets lay beneath the Lincoln Memorial: the Undercroft, a soaring 50,000-square-foot foundation built to keep the landmark from sinking into D.C.'s swampy ground.
Beginning in June, the public will be able to visit the space, now with a museum tracing the memorial's history, from its construction to its role as a powerful stage for the civil rights movement. https://t.co/MbuiPK7DU1
We bought this sign at an antique store in Temecula. Now thinking itโs not so much an antique but from the set of a film/tv/theatrical production. Any thoughts?
@varcoesports - Hi Jake, I'm a producer with CBS News. Can you add me so I can message you? We'd like to use one of your videos. Will send details. Thanks.
Oh man. This may be the funniest, most brilliantly written "@CBSSunday Morning" story ever (and no, not one of mine ๐). Itโs about the hilarious battle among North Dakota towns for the claim to be the exact center of North America. Gets better and better. https://t.co/uIBg8yrljy
@badkitty56@CBSSunday @LeeCowanCBS Part of the debate on the continental center actually centers on how you define North America. What countries and islands do you include and exclude? 2/2
@badkitty56@CBSSunday @LeeCowanCBS Hi @badkitty56 with eagle eyes. It's unclear how the USGS scientist defined North America when he first balanced that cutout in the 1930s. When UBufallo's Peter Rogerson made his calculations he excluded Greenland and the Caribbean. 1/2
@CarlosSanSierra @LeeCowanCBS Hi @CarlosSanSierra - Your geography teachers are right to be proud of their state. The center of the contiguous 48 US states is near Lebanon, KS. Our story was on the center of the North American continent.
MUST-WATCH: I spoke with Ted Koppel for tomorrow's @CBSSunday (5/16) about our defense of Black life, death threats & the legalized genocide of Black people. https://t.co/9BSIdautIk

Lee Cowan journeys to an isolated town that helped protect its community from the spread of COVID-19, but restrictions at the border have effectively trapped residents there, and kept visitors out https://t.co/PYQah32Rbi
Martha Teichner isnโt just a colleague. Sheโs a role model for all of us at @CBSSunday. For over 40 years sheโs told other peopleโs stories, from all over the world (including war zones). Now sheโs telling her own story and itโs as poignant, vivid and compelling as youโd expect.
Please remember that you're watching this unfold because brave reporters spent today in danger at the Capitol complex, making sure the public knows what's happening.
Thank you @newsemmys Credit to friend and mentor Ted Koppel who first suggested we look into an unusual lawsuit b/w Oberlin College and a local bakery.
Since there's so much in the news, right now, and people seem to really care, right now, and it feels so important, right now, here's a note for later: 100 million Americans didn't vote in 2016. Don't be one of them in 2020.
