dominion

Read a random definition: viva pecunia

A quick definition of dominion:

DOMINION: Dominion means having control or possession over something. It can also refer to having power or authority over a country or nation. When a foreign country has control over another country, it is called foreign dominion.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Dominion refers to control or possession over something, such as a car or a nation. It can also refer to sovereignty or the power to rule over a particular territory or people.

Example 1: The company had dominion over the entire market, with no real competition to speak of.

Example 2: The king had dominion over his kingdom, with the power to make laws and decisions that affected the lives of his subjects.

Example 3: Foreign dominion refers to the control or influence exerted by one country over another, often through colonization or military occupation.

These examples illustrate how dominion can refer to both physical control over something, as well as the more abstract concept of power and authority. Whether it's a company dominating a market or a king ruling over a kingdom, dominion implies a level of control and influence that can have significant consequences for those affected by it.

That makes sense. Was looking into Cornell clerking stats https://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/careers/judicial-clerkships/
U kno even tho their circuit numbers don't compare to other schools, those #s are better than expected tbh
40-50 fed clerks is pretty cool

No, at least from the two people I know there that’s false. I think it’s just something like Chicago for conservatives is on par with S whereas for liberals it’s below HYS but above CCNP

I mean I think even the student body there only like 15 percent is part of fedsoc
It's more just not a good # for people who aren't willing to clerk conservative. I'm sure they place liberal clerks at an above average rate for a t-6 though. Maybe higher (not entirely sure)
