One of the many problems with countering lies is it takes two seconds to lie and a lot more effort to share truth.

The truth in this case is that 13 years ago some terrorists stole a USAID tent.

13 years later a trillionaire manipulates that photo to lie.

I remain convinced, in the birthright citizenship case, that the children of transients (or birth tourists) case was a close one, but that the majority's decision was just obviously correct as a textual & historical matter on the children of illegal immigrants.

[Robby Soave @robbysoave]

The dissent from Neil Gorsuch in the birthright citizenship case is actually very interesting. He basically says that he would deny birthright citizenship to children of temporary visitors but not to illegal immigrants who lived here permanently. So on the question of whether illegal immigrants' kids are citizens, it's actually more like a 7-2 decision.

@dikaioslin Gorsuch的观点也很有趣，他似乎认为铁心来美国的非法移民后代，都应该享有出生公民权。但对于拿临时签证的birth tourist，认为不应该算被美国司法管辖下的人，因此后代不享有出生公民权。这个观点认真说来算支持白字黑子的宪法原意的。

I was disappointed to see Gorsuch dissent on birthright citizenship case, but it seems he's AOK with illegal immigrants' kids being US citizens. He's just not OK with birth tourists (intentional or accidental).

@TaoRay @america 算上卡瓦诺的一票，反对川普行政令的是6:3。卡瓦诺的立场，认为总统无权用行政令，但国会有权立法，对出生公民权进行限制。民意上确实有相当多数的MAGA选民要求限制出生公民权。卡瓦诺也算是给选民找个民意出气口。

@icy_rainy_day 和加拿大一样，日美也有引渡条约的。如果美国人有足够证据做实司法案件，人在日本也会被拿下的。

The Reflecting Pool is a perfect metaphor for the Trump administration:

- Ignore experts and science
- Overspend
- Declare early, historic victory
- "THE LEFT HATE THIS"
- Ends in total failure
- Unfounded conspiracies about sabotage
- MAGA pretends it doesn't actually matter

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

the united states and iran agree on two things, no more no less.

1) both want to end the war
2) both want to reopen the strait (as long as iran gets paid)

that’s the deal. there’s nothing new on nukes, on missiles, on iran’s funding of proxies and terror, on the iranian regime and its repression at home.

[ian bremmer @ianbremmer]

the world needs the strait of hormuz reopened. should have happened months ago, but today’s outcome is the best option available.

having said that, iran war has been a disaster. no agreement on nukes, ballistic missiles, support for proxies…and one of the world’s most brutal regimes remains in place…and is getting paid off.

biggest foreign policy failure of trump administration by a long margin.
