Iran's sports minister, Ahmad Donyamali, has said "under no circumstances" will the nation compete at this year's World Cup in the United States, due to the countries being at war.
Imagine a world where Americans were smarter and didn’t applaud when reactionary idiot Ronald Reagan made a show out of removing the solar panels Jimmy Carter had installed on the White House. We wouldn’t now have to worry about affording to fill gas tanks next month.
I'll take vehicles that Americans aren't allowed to own for $1000

The Democratic Party is directly enabling the war by praising the assassination of Iranian leaders, refusing to condemn the aggression, and approving massive military funding.
The gasoline we are buying today was likely processed weeks ago, meaning it was made with cheaper oil.

That headline yesterday (from the Jewish Insider, not the Onion):
7/ “Over the past eight months, DHS and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) have radically changed the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) System to pool individuals’ sensitive data across agencies—including SSA data.” 12/12/25
BREAKING: Per WaPo, a new whistleblower report alleges a former DOGE member said he kept his SSA computer & credentials, giving him “God-level” access to Social Security systems.
Meanwhile, Trump wants to force every state to rely on SSA data for voter roll purges under the SAVE America Act. 1/
The case of temporary visitors was more complicated at common law. The parents, if lawfully present, were under the temporary protection of the sovereign. That is why one judge in a famous case, Lynch v. Clarke, held in 1844 that a child born of temporary sojourners was a citizen. But the rule was contested because of increasing international travel and the resulting dual allegiances. Joseph Story suggested that an exception for temporary visitors would be a “reasonable qualification” to the rule. Henry St. George Tucker in his treatise stated flatly that temporary visitors fell outside the common-law
I'm afraid I can't just sit here and say nothing when another law professor gives false testimony to Congress about the meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment.
