the birthright clause was not just written to wipe dred scott off of the books, it was written to repudiate the *idea* behind dred scott, you might say the larger *ideological project* of dred scott. and the whole of section 1 of the 14th amendment is a constitutional statement of political equality

When he said this in October, FIFA shot back that it's not up to him.

“It’s FIFA’s tournament, FIFA’s jurisdiction, FIFA makes those decisions. With all due respect to current world leaders, football is bigger than them and football will survive their regime and their government and their slogans.”
FIFA VP pushes back on Trump comments about moving World Cup games from 'dangerous' cities
U.S. President Donald Trump has been reminded that FIFA and not government ultimately decides which cities will host World Cup games.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

The quiet, everyday act of Americans getting outside on their federal public lands generates more wealth, more jobs, more wages, and more tax revenue than all extractive industries on federal lands combined.
Combined.”

4. As a de facto SGE with substantial authority, the Foreign Emoluments Clause of the Constitution prohibits Kushner from accepting “any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
Kushner’s Moscow mission wasn’t just corrupt. It was unconstitutional.
Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law, has been traveling the world to participate in high-stakes foreign policy negotiations on behalf of the president.

I don’t get how people don’t understand how utterly insane it is to hand 100 billion no strings attached to an authority that reports only to one person and has shown a complete disrespect for the law and courts

The president sparked local anxiety, twice, with threats to pull the World Cup from Seattle. But it wasn't his idea. This is how Trump's theater show really works.
