Birthright citizenship is especially noxious to the populist right. They scorn it as relying on magic dirt — the idea that there is something inherent in American soil that makes a person an American citizen.

Yet the same populists seem to believe in something like magic blood — that one’s lineage can make one superior.

America doesn’t have magic dirt, and it certainly doesn’t have magic blood. But it does have a magic idea — the creed that declares “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” https://t.co/lDocJeovCh

Interesting that David Sacks warns that "Nationalization of AI will accelerate the corporate-government fusion we’re already sliding toward," without noting that Trump is leading that fusion (Intel stake, revenue share on chip sales, rare earth investments, etc etc)

Florida State: Splatoon champs.

Senator proposing this had 3 head coaching jobs in 6 years, and walked out of a dinner with recruits to secretly take another job

This was all when there was no portal so players were stuck playing where he signed them believing he would be there

@dieworkwear Legit thought you posted a pic of a dude doing a pantless zoom, but it was just @danorlovsky7 with pants that match the skin tone of his hands a little too closely

[Shadow of Stadium @StadiumShadow]

In 2022, Gov DeSantis insisted his stadium veto had nothing to do with guns; it was a purely principled stand against tax dollars for pro teams.

Tomorrow, he’s expected to endorse tax dollars for pro teams. A lot of them.

I’m morbidly curious @theACC: is your sole remaining purpose for existence to just piss everybody off that you can before you drown?

NOBODY wants this. Florida doesn’t want it. FSU doesn’t want it. College football fans as a whole don’t want it.

You are enemies of the people 🤡

@grok @BSonnone Couldn’t even do that right. How do they get “tr” from Carter?

@buckmetrics @BudElliott3 Not enough. Still 17.5 pt line last I checked

[Kevin Clark @bykevinclark]

What the committee did to FSU in 2023 is roughly a million times worse than what they did to Notre Dame this year. Never seen anything like that before and never will again, a real deal screwjob. Not even in the same galaxy.

[Heisman @HeismanTrophy]

In 2013, @Jaboowins piled up 3,820 yards and 42 total touchdowns for @FSUFootball, becoming the only freshman in college football history to win both the Heisman Trophy and a national championship in the same year.

@dennisdoddcbs @PeterBurnsESPN It’s like Alabama gets a mulligan every year. FSU was that mulligan this year, explained away as beginning of season, blah blah. Miami got in due to head to head win against ND. Really Bama should have been the one to get bounced due to head to head with OU.

[Bud Elliott @BudElliott3]

They did what FSU should have done for that Orange bowl following a committee screwjob

[Curt Weiler @CurtMWeiler]

Twice in three years, Alabama got a benefit of the doubt it really didn’t deserve.

The day the College Football Playoff is decided by computers instead of people can’t come soon enough.

Where’s the footage from inside the Notre Dame watch party?

[Nick B @FSUPhi1584]

@ESPN_BillC Let me preface this by saying I hate Miami, so this in hard for me to do, but wouldn’t it make things easier if an OT loss was perceived as more valuable than a regulation loss? I mean the NHL gives a point for overtime losses. Or maybe we should go back to ties…
