Summary
Graham Platner has officially dropped out of Maine's Senate race — not because Democrats found their conscience, but because he became unelectable, following the same playbook as Biden's 2024 exit. Todd breaks down why this was political expediency, not virtue. Then, President Trump makes a rare move: asking the Supreme Court to rehear its recent ruling upholding birthright citizenship for children born to parents unlawfully or temporarily in the country. Todd digs into the actual text and history of the 14th Amendment, including Senator Jacob Howard's 1866 floor speech, to make the case that the Court got it wrong. Conservative, not bitter.
