Ken Jennings from the top rope is not something I expected to see tonight. Interesting times.
The aliens aren't showing up. Pretty soon, some of the true believers are going to start silently crying in the living room.
For real. Follow up; it's not hard. "What fake studies? What do those studies say?"
Complete abdication of journalistic responsibility since 2015.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥
