BREAKING: Trump’s birthright citizenship scheme implodes after lawyer’s JAW-DROPPING courtroom blunder about Native Americans. Donald Trump sent his top lawyer to the Supreme Court to argue that birthright citizenship should be stripped from hundreds of thousands of American-born babies. It went so badly that his own solicitor general nearly argued Native Americans aren't citizens either — and had to be rescued by a Trump-appointed justice. In one of the most jaw-dropping exchanges of Wednesday's already disastrous hearing, Justice Neil Gorsuch — appointed by Trump himself — pressed Solicitor General D. John Sauer on the logical consequences of the administration's own legal theory. The exchange was as stunning as it was revealing. Gorsuch asked a simple question: under the administration's proposed test for birthright citizenship, are Native Americans born today automatically citizens? Sauer's answer was a slow-motion legal train wreck. First, he said yes — obviously. Then Gorsuch pushed him to set aside the statutes granting Native Americans citizenship and answer based purely on the administration's own constitutional theory. Sauer's answer changed: "No." Under the 1868 congressional debates, he explained, children of tribal Indians were not considered birthright citizens. The courtroom went quiet. Gorsuch pressed harder. But under your test — the domicile test you want this court to adopt today — are tribal Native Americans born on U.S. soil birthright citizens? Sauer fumbled. "I think so... I have to think that through, but that's my reaction." "I'll take the yes," Gorsuch replied — essentially throwing the solicitor general a life preserver before he could drown any further. Let's be absolutely clear about what just happened. The Trump administration walked into the highest court in the land with a legal theory so sweeping, so poorly thought through, that when a justice applied it logically, the government's own lawyer couldn't guarantee that Native Americans — people whose nations existed on this continent thousands of years before the United States did — would qualify as birthright citizens. This is the constitutional chaos that Trump's executive order invites. Once you start unraveling the 14th Amendment's guarantee that all persons born on American soil are citizens, there is no clean stopping point. The administration's own lawyer proved that in real time, in front of the entire nation, while Trump was still in the building — before he turned tail and fled. The 14th Amendment was written to be clear precisely because America had already lived through the horror of deciding that some people born here weren't really citizens. The Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship for 157 years. And Trump's lawyer just demonstrated, in spectacular fashion, exactly why those 157 years of precedent exist. Please like and share this post if you believe the Constitution means what it says — for everyone born on American soil.

🎂 Happy 50th Birthday Apple! I found this festive scene from Apple's IPO Party on my Mac, and it prompted me to look up their IPO prospectus. I noticed these executives on p.21., Markkula, the first investor, Jobs as Vice President, and Peter Crisp. A rush of fond memories ensued… On my first week on the job as a newbie VC, we were on the road to New York to fund raise. We had $26M under management (tiny for our business), and we were meeting with our cadre of current investors, one of whom was Peter Crisp of the Rockefeller family and Venrock funds. I did not know of his Apple connection at the time, but I vividly remember his words to me: he said that he envied us and wished he could be reentering the venture business as a young man (this was just before the Internet boom)… and he had one piece of advice for me. Looking back from the vantage point of great success, he wished that he had never sold his venture investments. He realized that for all the temporal gain of market timing, he missed the sea change of history and regretted watching Apple’s ongoing climb. Which brings me to another peculiar detail in that Apple IPO paperwork. I heard from another VC that Sequoia disposed of all of their shares in Apple before the IPO. That is so unusual that I had to check, and I could not find any mention of them in the prospectus. In any case, they did help finance the company in a critical period… but like Peter Crisp, who sold long after the IPO, they probably wish they had kept the faith. Even today, on Apple’s 50th, Warren Buffett laments that he sold Apple too soon. One more thing... Steve Jobs was my childhood hero, and I went to work at Apple and NeXT to see his work and his creation. It infuses the Steve Jobs eulogy I wrote for BusinessWeek: x.com/FutureJurvetso… With his life’s song forever woven into the fabric of Apple, Jobs rests with the sublime satisfaction of symbolic immortality. • @Apple IPO prospectus: swtpc.com/mholley/Apple/…

Happy birthday to this talented KING, also known as Jonathan Groff! 🥳🎂🎉

"Trump, the Mar-a-Lago golfer, is the only bull in the world who walks around with his own china shop. When a clown takes over the Palace, he doesn't become King. It's the Palace that becomes a circus" French senator Claude Malhuret once again nails it. You won't hear a better indictment of Trump and his Gulf war than this. Well worth 5 minutes of your time My English s/t 👇

🔥🔥🔥I spent the day at JFK photographing the ICE agents standing around, when I left, I was on the Air train with a bunch of TSA agents and they were so freaking mad that they hadn’t been paid in over a month and these guys were getting paid for doing nothing, and I mean nothing. If you would like to support my work, I’m self funded, and if Trump can ask for money, so can I! Getting a little lean over here. Ways to help in my profile ❤️📸🎬🎥

J'adore 🤩🤩🤩

Let me explain what just happened 👇 5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil. 5 minutes… These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch. There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made. Someone in that room picked up a phone. And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars. American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it. This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions. This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight. You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question. Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that. The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…
