Dick Sucking Lips® (exfoliating scrubs for cosmetic purposes)įinally, I note that there are currently 47 trademark registrations beginning with 1-800, including 1-800-LIQUORS, 1-800-LASIC-DOC, and 1-800-ALLSTATE.60plus MILFs® (magazine featuring mature nude female models)].The Mom to MILF Makeover® (for medical clinical services).So what are the current stats for x-rated trademark registration applications? Your humble scribe has done the down-and-dirty research and can report as follows: Noteworthy NSFW Trademark Registrations More than two years have elapsed since that warning. She warned of “the coming rush to register such trademarks -and the Government’s immediate powerlessness to say no.” Current Stats for X-Rated Trademark Registration Applications § 1052(a), struck down as unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination, the Government will have no statutory basis to refuse (and thus no choice but to begin) registering marks containing the most vulgar, profane, or obscene words and images imaginable.” With the Lanham Act’s scandalous-marks provision, 15 U.S.C. “The Court’s decision today will beget unfortunate results. ![]() However, several justices expressed concern over the consequences of that ruling, as best exemplified by Justice Sotomayor’s separate opinion, which opened: Well, in June of 2019 the Supreme Court did indeed affirm the Court of Appeals ruling, holding that the Lanham Act’s prohibition on registration of “immoral or scandalous” trademarks violates the First Amendment. Or, well, whatever.Īnd thus what was the potential market and profit for someone willing to finance the registration of a trademark for that bumper sticker? Or a doctor or member of the PTA or Boy Scout Leader. In other words, how many people out there would want to drive around with that bumper sticker on the back of their car? Surely no parent waiting in a school carpool line. ( Don’t know what that acronym stands for? That’s why the Gods, i.e., Larry Page and Sergey Brin, invented Google.) Are We Fuct? The Supreme Court to Answer this Trademark QuestionĪ year later, after the Supreme Court announced that it would indeed review the appellate court decision in the FUCT case, I revisited the issue in a post entitled “ Are We Fuct? The Supreme Court to Answer this Trademark Question.” And I noted at the end of that post that the number of pending applications to register trademarks that include the word “fuck” had doubled since my earlier post.īut my ongoing confusion-revisited as I sat idling behind that Hondo Civic with the bumper sticker-was over the commercial potential of obtaining an X-rated trademark registration. I wondered whether the Supreme Court would review that FUCT decision? And in the interim, what would be the impact of that Court of Appeals decision on applications to register X-rated trademarks?Īs I discovered, the FUCT decision had already triggered a race to the Trademark Office with dozens and dozens of new applications to register trademarks containing the word “fuck” or “shit,” along with others somewhat more obscure, such as MILF. I flagged the recent decision by the Federal Court of Appeals reversing that denial of a registration on the grounds that the Section 2(a) restriction violated the First Amendment. The focus of that post was the fate of Section 2(a) of the Lanham Act, which prohibited the registration of trademarks that were immoral or scandalous and which had been cited by the Trademark Office in rejecting an application to register FUCT for apparel. Yes, back in 2018 I wrote the second of what would be several posts on what I described back then as the risk of risqué trademarks. Did I flash back to a blog post of mine from four years ago? How did you guess? Make America Naughty Again: The Risk of Risqué Trademarks It started as an ordinary traffic stop-waiting for the light to turn green, thoughts drifting aimlessly, idling behind a Honda Civic, but then I noticed the bumper sticker on that car:ĭid I laugh? No.

It will be depicted as a time when - to political pugilists on both sides of the great divide - the fate of the American republic seemed at risk, and rancor ran deep.īut what did this “tale of sound and fury” actually signify and portend? For future historians this will be the crucial - and as yet unanswerable - question. It will be seen as a time of perfervid partisanship in which the very legitimacy of the new administration was challenged, and in which feisty tweets and aggressive initiatives from the White House were matched by feisty “resistance” in the media and on the streets, and by efforts by his opponents in the Senate to delay as long as possible the confirmation and installation of his Cabinet. Not so much because of its public policy outcomes - although some of these were audacious and controversial - but because of the stormy context in which policy decisions occurred. Nash, presidential biographer and author of The Conservative Intellectual Movement in America Since 1945:įuture historians will likely regard the first 100 days of Donald Trump’s presidency as the most dramatic launch of a new administration since 1933 and the most fraught with discord since 1861. One hundred days in, he still seems to prefer the former to the latter. Trump’s boasts now hang heavy in the air, prompting some to wonder whether the disappointments of this period will lead to a doubling down of his idiosyncratic view of the Presidency or some belated learning from the few pragmatists around him. It’s worth remembering that it was Trump who encouraged people to expect a lot of his first weeks in power. He ended as he started: the passionate preference of a minority of Americans. Whereas a lack of candor and civility seemed to place a cap on the new president’s popularity, it did not lead to much of an erosion of his core support. Nevertheless, despite the miscues, lies and blunders, the bottom did not drop out of the Trump presidency in its first 100 days. But, as the Repeal and Replace fiasco of the first 100 days showed, the Trumpian approach undermined coalition building even among Republicans. If they control both houses of Congress, Presidents can, of course, govern successfully without even a fig leaf of bipartisanship. He not only refused to offer an olive branch to those who did not support him in 2016 but he continued the harsh rhetoric of his campaign. Following a meeting with Democratic congressmen to discuss budgetary reform a week after his 100th day, President Reagan noted in his diary, “e really seem to be putting a coalition together.” Unlike Reagan, Donald Trump has not used his first 100 days to fashion a governing coalition. The start of a presidency can reveal a lot about the character, political and managerial skills of the country’s new Head of State. Timothy Naftali, clinical associate professor of history and public service at New York University and former director of the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum: This is the greatest of all lessons of history. We’ve got to get back to the reality that nothing of consequence is ever accomplished alone. It’s not just outlandish and beyond reality, it’s dangerous. It’s outrageous and intolerable, as has never happened to this extent, even close to this extent, ever before. He says things that are blatantly untrue. Where do you start?
