I propose letting international teams play in American gridiron football leagues so we can really get a full dose of reality…could you imagine a bunch of NZ Māori beating the absolute dogshit out of the Seahawks 🤣 It would be a real and necessary ego death that this country desperately needs.

My gosh. Yesterday, Egypt Coach Hossam Hassan asked FIFA to use its "soft power" to help Palestinians. Then today, just as the Egypt-Argentina match began, Israel killed Mohammed al-Wahidi of the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza — a group that also organized Gaza screenings of the FIFA matches.

Needless to say, some of the greatest anti-Communists were Social Democrats. Trump wouldn’t know since he never was an anti-Communist—he wanted to cut business deals with the Soviet Union and admired the brutal repression of the Chinese regime.

Given Gorsuch's dissent, I think it's fair to say today's decision on constitutionality is more 5.5-3.5 than 5-4. Gorusch seems like he is saying that he thinks children born to long-time undocumented immigrants (the majority) are probably citizens, whereas recent entrants and tourists are not.

Clarence Thomas's concurring opinion in the trans sports ban case in West Virginia contains some of the ugliest transphobic stuff I have ever seen in a legal opinion. Straight-up gleeful. Vile man. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
2 WEST VIRGINIA v. B. P. J.
THOMAS, J., concurring
judgment). Because “gender dysphoria” is a mutable men-
tal state that is the object of psychiatric treatment, it does
not resemble the immutable characteristics on the basis of
which our precedents have applied heightened scrutiny—
race, sex, or national origin. Instead, gender dysphoria re-
sembles other characteristics on the basis of which legisla-
tures may classify with a merely rational basis. See, e.g.,
Heller v. Doe, 509 U. S. 312, 321 (1993) (mental illness);
Plyler v. Doe, 457 U. S. 202, 220 (1982) (immigration sta-
tus). Legislatures have many obvious rational bases to
keep men who believe that they are women out of teams
and private spaces reserved for women.
Second, as the Court recognizes, this case concerns “bio-
logical men” and “boys who identify as girls.” Ante, at 10,
27. Men and boys with gender dysphoria are not women or
girls, even if they believe that they are. Sex is an immuta-
ble “biological” characteristic, see ante, at 10; it is binary;
and “man” and “woman,” “boy” and “girl,” are the terms that
correspond to adults and children of each sex. See A. Byrne,
Are Women Adult Human Females? 177 Philosophical
Studies 3783, 3786–3787 (2020). To use language to ob-
scure reality—to show “indifference regarding the truth”—
is to lie to the public and cease to treat our fellow citizens
“as equal[s].” J. Pieper, Abuse of Language—Abuse of
Power 17, 21 (1992).

truly wild that (thanks to a two-justice swing of Roberts and Kavanaugh between the Cook case and the Slaughter case) SCOTUS literally did "independence, but monetary policy only" Roberts' remarks here about Fed independence could apply just as easily to the Federal Trade Commission, and yet...!
With no support in Reagan and Shurtleff, JUSTICE THOMAS goes for broke. Once again far outflanking the Government, which “does not contest the constitutionalityof the” statute, Application 2, n. 1, JUSTICE THOMAS declares the statute “unconstitutional,” an infringement on the President’s power to “remove his subordinates at will,” post, at 24–25. We disagree, as did “the founders of our Government and framers of our Constitution” when they “were actively participating in public affairs.” Myers v. United States, 272 U. S. 52, 175 (1926).  They knew from experience (and Hamilton reminded them) of the calamities that could arise from even the “suspicion” of political manipulation of monetary policy. Report on a National Bank 331.  So when they established the First Bank of the United States, they guaranteed its independence from Presidential control. Their successors did the same for the Second Bank.  That enabled both banks to serve as the “great regulating wheel” of the early American financial system.  Lomazoff 53; see also id., at 51–68, 142–146 (discussing the banks’ role as a “watchdog over state banks and the economy”). The Federal Reserve follows in this lineage.  See supra, at 1–6.  Contra, post, at 3–6, 26–27 (THOMAS, J., dissenting) (contending that the First and Second Banks, unlik

I know the list is endless but I genuinely think trashing the legitimate congressionally chartered org for celebrating the 250th to instead hijack our national assets and taxpayer funds for his personality cult grifter crap should, in and of itself, be fully sufficient to merit removal from office.
linuscatt · 1d ago
I worked at Smithsonian, specifically raising money for 250th. What I want people to know is we secured millions of private philanthropy to host a month long Folklife Festival on the mall, "The Festival of Festivals". Was going to feature well known festivals, think Burning Man, Farm Aid, Grand Ole Oprey etc. as well as smaller local and regional festivals from across the U.S. and territories. Goal was to feature truly the best and most beautiful creative expression in music, dance, arts and craft traditions, food, community etc. Can't name names but plan was to have headliners every night for free concerts.... Think the types of names who might be affiliated with the aforementioned large festivals. Stars were willing to perform because was under banner of Smithsonian. It had to all be scrapped bc the administration would not release permits to host on the mall. The money went elsewhere, but our nation was robbed of what would have been a once in a generation cultural moment.
