“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”
There’s only one way to interpret the 14th Amendment: exactly how it's written. Birthright citizenship isn’t up for debate.

There's been endless talk about an AI bubble, but less about exactly how, why, and how much it's a bubble. So I turned to the framework put forward by scholars Brent Goldfarb and David A. Kirsch, authors of "Bubbles and Crashes," for assessing tech bubbles.

There is not a single reason to outsource your creativity to a computer.

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.
This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

The U.S. slipped to its lowest ranking ever in the World Happiness Report — 24th — in part because Americans are eating alone more than ever.

The mass firing of the federal tech workers at 18F is already being subsumed by fresh hells. But it's important that we take a beat to understand what just happened—that elimination of 18F is one of DOGE's most extreme political acts yet.

The federal digital services team 18F had a diverse workforce and openly inclusive policies. That's why DOGE killed it.

The guy who asked Zelensky if he owned a suit, Brian Glenn, is a reporter for the pro-Trump media network Real America’s Voice and also Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend. He got one of the rare Oval Office interviewer spots only after the White House blocked the Associated Press.

evil is not an immutable quality, and thinking that it IS, and that YOU are so smart and special as to have seen through its facade all along… like, all that’s doing is telling me that you think victims are stupider than you. not exactly a progressive stance!

Arizona’s universal ESA voucher program has been riddled with fraud and abuse. Now, Supt. Horne is fast tracking 85,000 reimbursements without any oversight. “For all orders that are $2,000 or less, we’ll simply go ahead and pay them and audit later.” 🤯😡

the gradual replacement of “exchanging money for goods” with “exchanging money for a license to use goods as a service” has been one low key one of the worst changes of the 21st century
this is exactly why i still buy discs in 2023. it's crazy to think that we are reaching a point where piracy will be the only option to own media once dvds and blu-rays are gone.
