- Scanlon: The Gulf of Mexico was so named over 500 years ago. If we want to update that name to reflect our current culture, maybe we should call it the Sea of Emoluments—you know, the place where we can board the Ship of Fools and navigate from a State of Ignorance to the Confederacy of Dunces…
- @acyn That’s the kind of congressional poetry we need more of. “The Sea of Emoluments,” sailing under the flag of self-dealing… With the Ship of Fools charting a course straight through the Confederacy of Dunces. If only satire weren’t just geography now. #PoliticalTheater #EmolumentsClause #May 6, 2025 15:59
