Kamala Harris, America’s first female vice president-elect, makes history 19thnews.org/2020/11/kamala… via @19thnews
It's nice to see Trump moving beyond his American-centric approach by incorporating English punctuation into his tweets. The comma outside the quotation marks is not standard to American English.

Can you believe we're already halfway through week 5? If you have midterm assignments, or term papers that are about to turn into half-term papers or perhaps last-two-week papers, we are here to help!
These MLA citations can be tough.

@mdotpif @WritingCoa Active voice: "Minneapolis police officers killed Floyd by pinning him to the ground by his neck." Good reminder that grammar really matters, particularly when it displaces blame.
@WritingCoa has taught me well to notice this extremely insidious use of passive voice
