If the Biden eviction order is so obviously unconstitutional and insulting to SCOTUS, why hasn’t it been enjoined already? (I honestly don’t know. Not arguing the order’s constitutional.) https://t.co/Pfjb5zGdO2

In order to make your case you have to misstate what was said-that migrants are “spreading the disease …more so than other factors” (not said) or that DeSantis “blame[d] the border situation for the health crisis” (not said). Even Paxton only charged Biden was biggest spreader. https://t.co/ab3SOu8HXF

Moderates seem to be in position to drive a hard bargain, no? @AOC doesn’t want to tank the big Dems-only soft-infra bill, even if it gets whittled down. But do these guys care that much? And the bipartisan bill can pass without @AOC. (Press, of course, will focus on AOC.) https://t.co/xNaBhVRyjF
