Just looked for something on @Google. Didn't find it. Found it immediately on @Bing. First time this has happened. I suspect Google's politics have so distorted its search that it wouldn't cough up what I was looking for (a story I'd read on @murphymike support of min wage).

Munro has a good section on the various ways the "country cap" bill WILL increase the total number of guestworkers, despite lobbyist claims that it just reallocates existing slots to India https://t.co/uw8Hk6Tuaa

Will Trump give away a potent immigration bargaining chip (end to "country caps") to BIg Tech without getting ANYTHING to fix border crisis in return? https://t.co/uw8Hk6Tuaa

Tech moguls want media silence as outsourcing bill sneaks through Congress. They seem to be getting it. (Can't find much in Bezos' Washington Post, for example) https://t.co/uw8Hk6Tuaa

According to @tomfriedman the Democratic nominee must campaign on "creating …good jobs"? Hard to see how he/she plausibly argues they'll do better than Trump in that department. There must be other winning issues. … https://t.co/ZaiYfScXYp

This is awful. Mark was a powerful thinker/advocate, always guided by evidence. Gave some of the best talks I've ever heard. Also a good friend and positive presence. You figured he'd always be there. https://t.co/HrNJE0cATe

Huge $$ coalition of tech giants & Kochs wouldn't be pushing HR 1044 UNLESS it increased their supply of labor, no? How? Answer seems to be: once odds of green card increase, Indians will flood into UNCAPPED "OPT" guestworker program [allows grads of lo-rent universities to work) https://t.co/TrROKNNOZr

If under HR 1044 Indians will take 90% of the allotted green cards for a decade, how can that possibly help Filipino nurses? https://t.co/TrROKNNOZr

Right. But a minimum wage hike/border control (loophole closing) deal could let Trump replace cheap-labor GOP diehards with at least some Democrats who really want a minimum wage increase. https://t.co/QvNIDOQfJq

I assume by "immigration reform" Girdusky means closing asylum loopholes, building wall, E-verity etc.–not what's previously called "reform" (ie amnesty). PS: Seems a mistake to try to reappropriate that weaselly term. Call it "immigration control." https://t.co/hntSKYwf34

Don't understand: Graydon Carter says Epstein "showed up at the [Vanity Fair] office one day and he was sitting in our lobby" as @VickyPJWard's story on him was closing. He'd been asked to pose for photos, but he "didn't do that." So why was he there? https://t.co/ycBrWjrkBE

"Trump has not built a single mile of new border fence after 30 months in office "https://t.co/bXYJzXkNE8 Pathetic, but how many miles of not-new fencing replaced flimsy hop-over "Normandy-style" vehicle barriers? Story should tell us. That's almost like a "new" fence.
