Right. That's the debate. Should deportation be limited to terrorists and criminals so all other undocumented immigrants–millions, maybe even billions of people who undertandably want to be here–are HOME FREE if they sneak past border or overstay visas? HRC says yes. Trump no. https://t.co/QaGt3qEaLb

PS And why do we need to hew to GWBush's original purpose when creating DHS? Of course focused on terrorism post 9/11. But there were still laws against illegal immigration on the books (much as Bushies would undermine them). Unless you'd void them, someone needs to enforce them https://t.co/CEVuMH5SgG

Meh. She just doesn't want people who are here illegally and *aren't* terrorists or ciminals deported. That's the policy choice the "Abolish ICE" left is (rightly) accused of. Sneak in & you're home free. https://t.co/w4Y7mqFWeV

But key paragraph is penultimate https://t.co/q1lgjxRVMD Even if program works & everyone shows up, a system that lets near-anyone claim asylum & then wait & work in US for years before (maybe) being deported is HUGE magnet for more-people see those who went before got to stay https://t.co/w15nyYwVUG

Also: Sure, everyone shows up for the hearings that might lead to having them granted asylum. But do they show up for the final one that will have them deported? https://t.co/Mo0ioON9lJ

'99% show up for hearings' stat on Alternatives to Detention appears to be bogus. If you fled, did they just drop you from program? So everyone still in program showed up! https://t.co/GgtEgzvAw3

Details might change this, but that seems like a worse deal than either of the Goodlatte bills the GOPs in House just rejected. https://t.co/LnWd6NUEA5

“at the heart of liberty is the right to define one’s own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life.” A get-up-and-get-a-beer line if there ever was one. https://t.co/bQ3IToaWAU

"Tamed a Republican Congress"? On immigration, he's been shut out legislatively, no? No wall, most obviously. https://t.co/eYMOxGYwEl

It's been 14 hours and I haven''t seen the hot take that Republicans secretly *don't* want Roe overturned, because they will lose elections if banning abortion again becomes an open legislative question. But maybe I missed it.

Sorry, wrong link. Should be to this new @Politico article on failure of Ryan/Denham amnesty: https://t.co/A84OKNJ6IX https://t.co/8wt0SiSSMK

Shorter @Politico: GOP voters didn't like it.
The voters are always off camera, of course. But piece makes clear they're the reason HFC, and a much broader group of GOPs, and maybe Trump, couldn't get behind the Ryan/Denham amnesty. https://t.co/7A6tagBZnU

Hard to blame 40 Member House Freedom Caucus when Ryan bill came up 90+ votes short. But you knew that would be basic @Politico story line (even if belied by some reported details) https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao

Denham also intentionally blew up a deal over "path to citizenship," allegedly to test Freedom Caucus members. The man is a genius. https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao
