Claudia Sheinbaum, a U.S.-educated scientist-turned-politician, was elected Sunday as Mexico’s first female president, shattering gender barriers in a country known for a culture of machismo and high rates of violence against women. latimes.com/world-nation/sto…

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the phrase Black Lives Matter is not a symbol of hate. It's a simple statement of fact.

This is my kid, and I wholeheartedly endorse her message.
Healthcare Heroes Challenge! Encouraging kids at home to share a video or photo thanking the healthcare workers across the country. All you need to do is hashtag #HealthcareHeroes and #OKFamilyDocs. Miss E knows first hand. Last year her life was saved by those in healthcare.

It has turned into a nice night, but I couldn’t stick around to see it. Follow @usopencup for updates.
It’s a beautiful sight. Interested in some late night footy? FREE admission down here! #ForCityAndClub // #USOC2019
Just saw some wicked lightening east of the stadium, so @EnergyFC-@TampaBayRowdies isn’t happening anytime soon. @usopencup
Kudos to whoever is playing DJ in the @EnergyFC locker room. Now playing: “No Rain” by Blind Melon

Weird weather in #Oklahoma tonight ... and we have been told that they are going to do whatever they can to play the @EnergyFC vs. @TampaBayRowdies #USOC2019 Round 3 match tonight
A little bit of everything here at John Crain Field. Sunlight, raining, and in a lightning delay for tonight’s @opencup game. #USOC2019

Someone just pointed out if weather cleared now (which it hasn’t), tonight’s game wouldn’t start until about 9:30 pm CT. Buckle up for a long night soccer fans. @usopencup

This delay isn’t fun but at least it looks pretty...

The lightning hasn’t stopped. They can come out 30 minutes after it finally does.

I’m in Norman, OK, for a scheduled #USOpenCup match between @EnergyFC and @TampaBayRowdies, but the weather is not cooperating. Kickoff is on hold while we wait out the Oklahoma weather. @usopencup

Radar seems to indicate it may be a while before things clear up to any extent.
