Of course, CA's extreme version of "criminal justice reform"– Prop 47–has something to do with this high level of property crime. You can steal $950 a day–it's not a felony https://t.co/uz1DRwQghY (I realize this isn't the same as the bill that passed Congress.) https://t.co/pAx2WDzW3x

You have to wonder if the other (non-Miller) advisors were Koch/biz types annoyed that Cissna was too tough on guestworker programs … "Broken system" often means "We're not getting the cheap labor we want," no? https://t.co/szMThcnPEh

But "[e]ven if he is not confirmed, Mr. Cuccinelli is expected to be kept on at the Department of Homeland Security in some fashion." So he's not going to take Cissna's job? Was just used to knock out Cissna? https://t.co/7MAzGKzG7o

This isn't a tough number to calculate–not like how many people are happy, or hungry, or prepared for work. It's simple. What excuse is there for DHS to not give out the number? They are secretly building a lot of wall but want to spring it on everyone? https://t.co/weSQhePK4c

Also: "Neumann’s role as a [DHS] senior adviser, the source said, was to execute Nielsen’s policy of stopping Trump’s policy initiatives and forcing Trump loyalists out of the agency." MSM coverage rarely gets down to staffer level, which is often where the action is. https://t.co/Lpoezwrret

More evidence that once migrants get released into the country, they're here to stay, no matter how weak their asylum claim. The idea that they can always be deported seems to be a comforting fiction. https://t.co/rBXb6lpzrU https://t.co/KiNuPC2Y5B

That won't do anything to stop the current Million-Migrant surge thru asylum loopholes, of course. Doesn't look like it will be stopped by executive action (eg czars). I suppose Trump might get amnestyless legislation if he knew how to get legislation … https://t.co/ygwTcYZiOv

I should stop sneering at Jared for this tho–his immigration plan's better than expected, so far (if we only knew what was actually in it). If it produces a "discussion"-eg of E-Verify-that might be one of the better outcomes, compared with passing it by giving Dems amnesty. 1/ https://t.co/94VmuVDs25

Don't be silly. Economists' (like Peri) have shown that more immigration can't mean lower wages. Whom are you going to believe? Prof. Peri or hundreds of actual California farmers now paying higher wages due to lower immigraton? https://t.co/R8HbJo6zZc
