Ranking him among active players in career WAR is such a weird starting point. The players with the highest career WAR are, unsurprisingly, mostly guys who are well past their primes and wouldn’t be worth much going forward. Would you rather they made Justin Verlander the highest paid player?

what follows immediately after the birthright clause? the privileges and immunities and due process clauses? and what follows them? the equal protection clause. all of this is explicitly to say, "the declaration is the constitutional law of the land"

The number of people I see arguing that these men were somehow still a threat to reach the United States, when they were literally clinging to wreckage floating somewhere in the ocean between Venezuela and Trinidad, is baffling. I don’t know what to do when we’re not living in the same reality.
