Choi continued breaking while navigating corporate America. Olympics.com reported that breakers' moves fall into three elements: top rock, down rock, and freezes. Top rock refers to moves done while standing, such as a Crossover Step or an Outlaw Two-Step, while down rock refers to the moves done on the floor that we commonly associate with this style of dance. "It adds this element of surprise because the thing is, we don't even know what's going to happen, so how could the audience know what's going to happen?" Choi said breaking is also different from other sports because it doesn't have "a traditional history of having coaches."

Republican legal experts and think tanks such as the Heritage Foundation are questioning Harris's ability to access the Biden-Harris campaign coffers. Others, including Congressman Steve Scalise, say it's wrong for Harris to assume the top line of the ticket after 14 million state primary voters cast ballots for Biden. There's no general election candidate being replaced, so those rules and regulations about replacement don't don't apply to the situation." AdvertisementNoti of the Campaign Legal Center said a meritless claim like this would be tossed from court immediately, leaving the GOP challengers' lawyers subject to possible sanctions for filing a frivolous suit.
