The Supreme Court will certainly have to save Trump from lower court ResistLaw in the Flores case as well as "Matter of AB," no? https://t.co/VocV1UZYDV Maybe also on "Remain in Mexico." https://t.co/pZBI9dvVYT

Wouldn't be pleasant afternoon (2 tweets, 3 retweets) without "rate limit exceeded" from @Tweetdeck. Does this happen to @mattyglesias, I ask?

PRIORITIES: "Mr. McConnell has expedited virtually everything Mr. Trump has asked of him since 2017, rolling back Obama-era regulations, ramming through a giant tax cut…" Did Trump not even ask McConnell for legislation on asylum loopholes ? E-Verify? https://t.co/adL86MBJc0

If higher pay lures successfully more talent into manufacturing, why do we care which firm they end up with? Higher pay is also the "market signal" to young people to acquire STEM skills. Businesses say they like market signals, except when they signal higher wages. https://t.co/EpHwLzNKgr

Why not raise wages? "[O]ffering higher pay helped to attract talent but not retain it. STEM workers were often hired away by rivals." So pay the going wage! Is immigration policy supposed to let employers avoid competing in the labor market? Guess so. Kind of gives the game away https://t.co/t82U6TG94a

12 tweets or retweets in 3 1/2 hours, and @Tweetdeck decides my "rate limit" has been exceeded. Lucky I'm not paranoid.

Thanks. Point 12 is provocative and a huge concession. Admits "a rapid inundation of a local area by immigrants and a replacement of natives" would "upend institutions" and justify limiting immigration. An empirical argument on which voters may have varying opinions… https://t.co/QqRqnVpz5J

Jaw dropped when @AlexNowrasteh said limits on number of immigrants might be determined by "their impact on culture." https://t.co/TsYr95vZEZ Send him to @CatoInstitute jail!

How long before frontrunner Sanders is accused of wanting to build concentration camps on the border? (And will he stick to his guns?) https://t.co/VAsIMQfAP4

Has Sanders discovered the key to beating Trump (showing signs of common sense on the border crisis)? https://t.co/VAsIMQfAP4

Hmm. Hard to believe the vague definition of "credible fear' doesn't allow for some tightening up without new legislation (or rulemaking). "90 percent or more" of those who come in have to pass? Can't be brought 10 or 20 percent lower? https://t.co/iUoObhE7AD

Even if there's no chance, if pols show the "more workers" lobbyists on K St. that they're trying, they get another round of campaign donations. But can't say no chance as long as Graham, Kushner, Pence, Short, Knight & Schlapp are around … https://t.co/IBj8noNkNj

Seems CRAZY (respectable, but crazy) to say that 'car jobs won't come back.' Remember, the Adidas 'factory of the future' has NO SUPPLY LINES. Sited in the 1st World country where product's sold https://t.co/0W73ddYXD1 Granted, sneakers aren't cars. But with 3D printed parts …. https://t.co/NIgDwo16Fa

Dude, she f**ked with your blog to impose CAP party-line discipline. More troubling that you say it was all a misunderstanding than if you were pissed off & said she was out of line (which she was). https://t.co/68uUpykh9b [search for "commandeered"] https://t.co/Jpy4h3my2P

At @latimesfob author @BretEastonEllis says he was "punked" in that @IChotiner interview. Doesn't charge distortion. He was apparently surprised Chotiner had "an agenda" and amusingly describes his attempts to counter. At one point he says he actually tried to win Chotiner over.
