I hate that I have to say this.
But I belong. We Asian Americans belong. I was born & raised in the U.S. I am as American as apple pie & I am as American as Korean barbecue. I am American. Please don’t question me about that fact. Ever. (15/15)

For better or worse, Trump now owns the Gaza deal.
He now faces the herculean challenge of implementing it.
Yet, as I told @AmaraCNN delicate diplomacy has never been his forte...

Media: @CedricLeighton to @AmaraCNN: "In this case, the Iranian embarrassment" relative to the Ismail Haniyeh assassination "could result in, perhaps, a haphazard Iranian response, not a well-organized one. But it could also force them into a different direction, where they could organize themselves in a more coherent fashion, and the types of attacks we've seen in the past could become much more sophisticated and therefore more dangerous."

In leaving Caitlin Clark off the 2024 Olympic team, USA Basketball misses a huge opportunity to showcase the most dominant — and ignored — team in sports. I write this as someone who has reported on US women’s basketball at the Olympics since 1984. usatoday.com/story/sports/co…
