Continental Congress has convened for the day at the Pennsylvania State House.

The doors are shut and the windows shaded to keep the sun out as much as possible - and to keep out eavesdroppers and spies.

The delegates are stifling on the stuffy inside and we, the public, are presently unaware of the machinations occuring within.

First time I have ever seen this and I have 2 thoughts: 1. It’s outstanding and 2. Robin Williams left us all too soon.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

Robin Williams’ emotional tribute to the American Flag leaves an entire stadium speechless — then in tears.

Is there a single Hollywood star who would give this performance today?

Total Patriot.

RIP Legend 🇺🇸

[U.S. Chamber @USChamber]

A recent U.S. Chamber analysis shows small businesses have accounted for 78.2% of hiring since 2001.

Ahead of America’s 250 Anniversary, @HouseSmallBiz Chairman @RepRWilliams highlights how small businesses remain central to our Nation’s story. https://t.co/0ul9mFeVSh

I think this is very well written and honest. I stand more with majority of the board. Should there be oversight, absolutely. Do I think the smaller voting block have gone overboard in their oversight and public comments...also yes.

[David Harns @DavidHarns]

"Throw them all out" captures how many Spartans feel about MSU's trustees. That no longer reflects reality. The Board is now divided between 2 competing philosophies of governance. My latest breaks down those competing visions & why this election matters:

The best thing J Batt can do for Michigan State at this point is to leave. The transition is over in every practical sense except one - and that one is preventing Michigan State from moving forward. My column:

I feel this. I am so sick of seeing MSU be an embarrassment. It is such a great university. https://t.co/8xoRQRfYpP

[Michigan State Content @msucontent]

Tom Izzo is questioning Michigan’s Elected Board System.

“Michigan’s having problems, too. Some of this is the way our boards are selected. They are elected, not selected. We’re one of only four states in the whole country that are that way. There’s a reason. It’s probably not working well.”

🎥 @WOODTV

[John Sellek @JohnSellek]

Tom Izzo just called for Spartan Nation to rally against this stupid board. He is MAD.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, you can take action now and have your legacy be saving Michigan State.

[Matt Becker @mattbecker8]

That man has given everything to MSU. I'm just so sick of the self inflicted stupidity we bring on ourselves due to the arrogance of our Board of Trustees.

[Chris Solari @chrissolari]

Strong words from Tom Izzo about the current state of MSU.

[Matt Becker @mattbecker8]

I'm beginning to lose hope that MSU leadership will ever get out of its own way in my lifetime. This is beyond embarrassing. @michiganstateu

Beware of buying appliances from @WhirlpoolCorp. Our brand new Whirlpool microwave broke in February and we are STILL waiting to get it fixed via Whirlpool. Their customer service has been useless and ineffective. Almost want to trash the microwave and go to a better company.

[Matt Becker @mattbecker8]

Once again Michigan State is embarrassed by the Board of Trustees...so disappointing. MSU finally felt like it was crawling out of its own disasters.

[Jon Blau @Jon_Blau]

New Clemson president Kevin Guskiewicz is getting a five-year contract, base compensation $1.2 million per year.

Clemson's foundation will pay nearly $900K of that amount per year.

[Matt Becker @mattbecker8]

This was outstanding!

Eric took the stage at UNC Chapel Hill to deliver a commencement speech to the next generation of Tar Heels, sharing a message for the graduates as they step into what comes next.

The most recent numbers have Florida's workforce participation rate at 57.6% which is 49th in the nation. So not only do we have an aging workforce, we have a smaller workforce. https://t.co/NAudnsQ1Dt via @tbbjnewsroom

I am not a hockey expert by any stretch. But WOW what a great game to watch. Even better that the right team won!

[Gabby Shirley @Gabby_Shirley_]

Jon Cooper on Game 6: “If you watched tonight's game, that game didn't need a goal. All it needed was one goal to end it and that's how exciting it was. It was thrilling. It was epic. It was goaltenders making extraordinary saves, players doing things that were of grace and skill and magic and there was intensity and there were hits. It was everything and there wasn't a goal scored yet everybody in the building was on the edge of their seats. I guess that's how epic games become epic.”

[Baseball’s Greatest Moments @BBGreatMoments]

Fun fact: Mark Grace had more hits in the 1990s than any other player in baseball.

[Matt Becker @mattbecker8]

This is where the national championship lost me. How do you review this and not upgrade it with a full two handed shove to the back. Especially after you upgraded a weak hook and hold in the first half. I don't get basketball officiating...

[Intrinsic @intrinsicvalyou]

Elliot Cadeau SHOVES Silas Demary
How is this not a technical foul??

[John Ziegler @Zigmanfreud]

Michigan just won a national championship in men’s basketball with…

-ZERO starters who enrolled at Michigan as freshman (all transfers)

-A starting lineup with the average age of 22

-A starter who is 25 years old

Go Blue!! 😂

Nice job, everyone!!🤮
