The White House became my home when I was twelve years old. I always understood that it wasn’t my ‘house’; it was The People’s House. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

Thanks to The Excerpt podcast @USATODAY for having me on to talk about Forum, our new weekly space from @usatodayopinion to hear readers' thoughts and opinions on this wild news moment we're all living in. Listen here: art19.com/shows/5-things…

Wow, cats have had a hell of an election season huh?

"It’s clearer now that people like authenticity until it conflicts with the version they’ve created in their heads," writes columnist @MframaKofi. bit.ly/47aVupM

As #Paris2024@Olympics+@Paralympics begin, former #Afghanistan natl 🏀 player @samirasghari reminds world: “Don’t forget the 20 million Afghan women+girls who are denied basic rights to access education, work, health—and sports” Voices column in @USATODAY usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

@k0rtkn33 @usatodayopinion This has not been a kind political season for ANY of us! Thanks for reading :)

@CaseyBlakeAVL @usatodayopinion I came on here ready to tear you apart until I read it was satire. 🥺 I really hate who I’ve become during all of this.

Wrote this up for ⁦@usatodayopinion⁩ in a lil girlie fit of rage 😊💅usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

@RexHuppke Thank you, Rex - it's an honor to put so many exclamation marks in headlines alongside the GOAT.

@ViceroyChicken @usatodayopinion You know you're not wrong - that was damn good TV! Thanks for reading :)

@CaseyBlakeAVL @usatodayopinion Don’t let people make you doubt yourself. This article was obviously being very satirical. But I would have to disagree with you. Personally, I love watching old men arguing a 16 handicap, really makes the time fly.

@anabhausen_ @usatodayopinion I mean obnoxious is the vibe of that mindset!

@CaseyBlakeAVL @usatodayopinion And apologies for “obnoxious”. I could have selected something more eloquent in my original question.

@anabhausen_ @usatodayopinion Most positively satire. Hard to tell in these wild times where absurd sounds normal, though, I know.

@CaseyBlakeAVL @usatodayopinion Was the article satire? I read it and thought it was a bit obnoxious. Wanted to check from the source

@josh45806 @usatodayopinion It's satire, Joshua. The entire point is the absurdity of the notion that a Black lady can't be POTUS.

@usatodayopinion @CaseyBlakeAVL I was impressed with this repost is why I chose it to comment. I was taken aback with your USAT oped. So with any respect due. A White lady from NC has no license to say why a Black lady can’t be POTUS. Period!

"Without the context of the March on Washington and Dr. King’s words, America has little hope of recovering from the backslide into tribalism, racism and antisemitism it has wallowed in between the elections of Obama and Trump," writes Clarence B. Jones. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

@KristinaKa1268 You got it!

So it’s guy lying super loud versus guy telling the truth super soft.

"My heart is heavy with sorrow, anger and, most of all, a profound sense of helplessness after an act so horrific and brutal that we never could have imagined it," writes Yaniv Yaakov. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

I'm excited to share this op-ed I wrote about identity and the Eras Tour for @USATODAY. In The Eras Tour, Taylor Swift is no longer playing along with what patriarchy makes women do. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…
