Charlie LeDuff works at a hot dog diner "for the health care [it] offers"–"it means his daughter has health care." What was wrong w/ Obamacare? Isn't Obamacare designed for people in LeDuff's situation? https://t.co/JsWipO7ThX Seems like there's a story here whatever the answer

Amazon is "perhaps the biggest job engine in the United States"? Don't you have to also look at the jobs (e.g. the entire retail sector) Amazon is destroying? Why sound like Amazon PR? https://t.co/2N3P1sJDMV Yes, there's a weak to-be-sure graf ("Amazon is no saint, certainly")

Re: cheerleading–Goes w/o saying that @NYT describes pro-discharge group as "cooperative" while their opponents are "hard-right" & "uncompromising." More important, NYT doesn't mention that Goodlatte bill w/ "hard-right" wants to vote on also protects DACAns https://t.co/3DBV76MpHZ
