More than 23 years ago, then Senior White House Correspondent @wolfblitzer welcomed a nervous print to TV convert to @CNN. There is no finer man for moments like this.

So many paths to 270 calories.
I want @JohnKingCNN at my fridge every morning, showing me whats in there exactly and explaining all possible food paths I could go. #magicfridge.

Not too far from the house of a man asking to “stop the count” is another excellent reminder of why it must be finished.

Ludicrous? Unreal? Help me find the right word. #Trump in farewell address says “above all we reasserted the sacred idea that in America, the government answers to the people.” Same man who for two months after losing lied and lied trying to DEFY the will of the people.

If, for whatever reason, you needed more evidence. Or more math. Four more EVs to come from Hawaii. But CA puts @JoeBiden past 270 and because he keeps challenging fact, we need to say again that @realDonaldTrump lost. By margin he called landslide in 2016.

Congrats rockstar @abbydphillip!!!! Sunday mornings are special and in great hands here. I get to sleep a little more, and parent a little better, after 5 years of 7-day weeks.
I'm so thrilled to be taking the reins of Inside Politics Sunday from my friend and colleague @JohnKingCNN starting on January 24th. Could not be more proud to be joining this incredible @CNN franchise! .

Much of the world, it seems, was Trumphausted, too.
A stream of world leaders have congratulated President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris Saturday on their victory in the 2020 US presidential election, with many striking a jubilant tone on social media.

Work on writing 1,2,3s on a touch screen. After maybe pouring 1,2,3 pints. Perhaps unwise order, but . .
I wonder what @JohnKingCNN is going to do once the results are in and he can be released? Like, what are his 1,2,3 things he’s gonna do first?.

@JohnKingCNN just said, "we need those votes", referring to the numbers to come of DeKalb County. WOW! @CNN doesn't even hide its bias.

Today is because of this - VOTING. And a testament to the strength of a system that repelled an attack from a soon to be former President who refuses to respect democracy.

I used to watch @JohnKingCNN, from the time I lived in NYC, when he was CNN’s White House correspondent and his hair was blonde. Now, 20 years later, he and his wall give me life. I wouldn’t want anyone else for this coverage. (Won’t say anything about his white hair 😁).
