1000%? 2000%? 3000%? If they're going to try to get Trump to endorse Ryan's amnesty once more, with feeling — maybe it's also a good idea to keep calling the White House to urge Trump *not* to do that. 202 456 1414 is the switchboard. https://t.co/E7Jnsma54j

This is so NOT a reason to stop calling (202 224 3121). Ryan and K St. do not give up easily. They'll try to revive the amnesty somehow,
They'll do *anything* (as long as it isn't mandating E-Verify) … https://t.co/aCoUd3XgiU

They have to vote on *something* to get rid of the discharge petition, no? (I'm no expert.) Or is the next move of Ryan & Amnestiers to just let the discharge petition go ahead? https://t.co/aCoUd3XgiU

What could Trump do to convince them he won't change his mind? Offer them the deed to Trump Tower? Call in the Bocchicchios as hostages? He's Trump. And it's a bad bill. So they can't count on him not to turn on it, no? https://t.co/E7JnsmrFVR

Violent crime fell — sorry, plunged — 2% in 2017, after rising 7% 2014-16. Still higher than pre-migrant crisis.That's according to the official stats. (Here's 2015 https://t.co/A1iFtA38bN) https://t.co/f1rmd1UYbZ

Trump's endorsement of the "compromise" bill seems a bit Luther-Strangey to me … https://t.co/MV4qWF6CRo He wants to talk about everything except immigration, then barely mouths an ambiguous endorsement. You can take that to the bank!

SELLOUT IS ON: Scalise seemed to think Trump had given them the thumbs up to forge ahead.

NOTE FOR MSM (esp. @chucktodd): Even in the official German stats, violent crime jumped 7% from 2014 to 2016. Went down 2.4% last year but still higher than before. https://t.co/dXJEYslA5y

That's the same type of "trigger" as in the Gang of 8 bill. It's a fraud, because while the citizenship pathway shuts down (until it's reopened) the basic legalization of 2M+ Dreamers stays. They're still here, legally, which is 90% of what they want/need. Trump fell for it? https://t.co/SO3St3QZtp

SELLOUT IS ON: Trump apparently did NOT derail GOP leadership's drive for the Ryan Amnesty bill. They're plowing ahead. If you oppose it–big amnesty, no E-Verify –please let your Congressperson know. 202 224 3121 is Capitol switchboard. https://t.co/fJhQ4y3OrB

.@justinamash — Please do not support Ryan's "compromise" immigration bill, no matter what @realDonaldTrump says! Too much amnesty, too little to prevent another amnesty. We didn't elect Republicans to enact a 2M+ amnesty!

If you don't want to call (or have already called) why not TWEET MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE FREEDOM CAUCUS urging them to hold the line against Ryan's "compromise"–too much amnesty (2M+) too little enforcement to prevent future amnesties (no E-Verify).
