This would make a great comedy. World Cup matches are moved from New York and Los Angeles to small-town Texas and the foreign visitors and MAGA locals have all sorts of awkward interactions as they learn to enjoy the games amid madcap hijinks.

They're only trying to kill babies of poor people. Changing vaccine schedules doesn't make vaccines unavailable, but it will remove them from "covered services" on most if not all insurance plans. That means they'll only be available to people who can pay cash for them.

- Bush v Gore chose the president on such nakedly partisan grounds they put in the opinion that it couldn't be used as future precedent
