Dublin has been a champion and beneficiary of a global economic system that Washington is bringing to an end. Ireland can no longer have the luxury of a free ride at America’s expense, writes @robertcobrien https://t.co/ssLLGBlJ2m

Purgatory matches our sense of faith and fallen nature: our awareness that we can be saved, snatched by God’s grace, and yet still not be ready for heaven, writes @JosephBottum https://t.co/vaEFpVU3on

The Jay Jones victory shows how little scandals matter in our partisan era, since even his fantasizing in a text message about murdering a political opponent wasn’t a career ender. https://t.co/4oMxtBpUtl

Ireland is finding its voice in international affairs, but it’s one that seems increasingly hostile to U.S. interests, writes @robertcobrien https://t.co/KeIFrXtnU9

It's a crapload of money for somebody who treats it as a part-time job. Maybe now he can start working at least 9 to 5?

I'm still leaning Haley/Gabbard.

3/ “Judge Swan's opinion in the Tobacco case is often paraphrased — no doubt unfairly — as holding that “no man can be worth $1,000,000 a year.’” George T. Washington, The Corporation Executive's Living Wage, 54 Harv. L. Rev. 733, 759 (1941). One can but wonder what Judge Swan

2/ The majority rejected the challenge. In dissent Swan opined that, "In my opinion a bonus of $840,000 to an officer receiving a fixed salary of $168,000 is presumptively so much beyond fair compensation for services as to make a prima facie showing that the corporation is

1/ Tesla shareholders have approved Elon Musk's trillion dollar pay package. Although I am not an economic populist, I am nevertheless reminded of Judge Swan's dissent in Rogers v. Hill, 60 F.2d 109 (2d Cir. 1932). In that case, a shareholder of the American Tobacco Company

Just pre-ordered Matteo Gatti's new book "Corporate Power and the Politics of Change." https://t.co/w9377zo9Tu I touched on aspects of these issues in my book The Profit Motive, https://t.co/kXWgqsKp2C, but my treatment was tangential to the main thrust. Gatti's book looks to

New Bainbridge on Corporations post: Board Centric Contractarianism—Announcing yours truly's new essay on the nature of the corporation

It turns out @AmericanAir is not closing down. Mark Twain once said that a lie will fly around the whole world while the truth is getting its boots on. Social media has made that truer than ever—indeed accelerated the process.

Deuteronomy teaches us to “love the foreigner residing among you.” The White House may dismiss him, but if anyone knows what He’s talking about, it’s @Pontifex. As one of tens of millions of Catholics living in the US, I for one think our Pope knows EXACTLY what he’s talking

💯 Also, I’ll always stand by the man who holds the Keys and not the man who holds the office, most certainly not his hirelings. And there will come a time (in the conscience or at the judgement) when, for at least Catholics, they will be asked, “Why didn’t you listen to Peter?”

Young Nigerian Catholics receive their first Holy Communion despite the growing violence against Christians in their country. This is saintly bravery. 🙏

I am a conservative, and I agree.

It would not be wholly incorrect to say that I am not wholly displeased with tonight’s results.

Pope Leo is saying that there’s a difference between genuine Christianity and Christian Nationalism. "Jesus says very clearly at the end of the world, we're going to be asked, you know, how did you receive the foreigner? Did you receive him and welcome him or not?”

A terrible outcome. One should not be able to wish death on your political opponents and still win a race. Partisanship is leading us to disaster.
