** Roe might still be saved by Roberts. But nothing Trump can do about that with this appointment.

So the first leak of this conversation was spun anti-Kavanaugh. And this is a make-up call from COTTON's side to counter that impression. Presumably true, but now feel like I can't quite trust any accounts of this conversation at all. The DC Heisenberg principle. https://t.co/XdKtBt58NT

One way to look at it: Roe's in deep trouble with any of Trump's top picks.** That's in the bag. But Trump's immigration agenda isn't in the bag–some of the picks may block him, some will not. He should pay attention to that. https://t.co/WkI8DIMk4k

Each column has to top the previous one. Has he done the Replacement Fantasy column yet (we need to deport all these nativists & bring in new Americans)? I think so. https://t.co/ozQlXMrlrH

Labor shortages are raising wages in a variety of blue-collar jobs, says Glassdoor, a recruitment and wage-tracking company. “With the economy running hot, we’re finally starting to see pay raises for many of America’s lowest-paying jobs" https://t.co/qdnrdW2FO2

Big immigration cases coming to SCOTUS soon: DACA, Flores, lawsuits around asylum rules & maybe the wall, whatever else ACLU cooks up. Nominee's views on these issues seem as important in practice as views on Roe–even if less key for theories of constitutional interpretation

Don't know enough. Unexpectedly there are decisions where Kavanaugh has been solid in terms of upholding immigration laws. See, eg his dissent here https://t.co/5RucAse3mV https://t.co/PNizfBfs1v

Here's Hardiman signing off on an opinion keeping alive case of Chinese man who converted to Christianity *after* a "final order denying his application for relief" and now says he'll be persecuted for it. OK! https://t.co/hXsYvspafD

Here's Hardiman concurrence on an asylum case (is it enough to be threatened for not joining MS-13?) Not definitive-he sent back the denial of asylum to demand a clearer rationale. Not necessarily hostile to Sessions' new rules-but he did send it back https://t.co/zkb8G2sIii https://t.co/FvblNMhDFL

Nothing wrong with legal aid, but we're looking for clues on Hardiman's policy choices. Gushing about Ayuda is a clue. (There are others.) With so many qualified candidates, no need to take chances. Quote is in https://t.co/5SenBbr5b4 https://t.co/izMV00brZC

"Hardiman worked with Ayuda, a legal aid clinic in Washington, representing low-income Spanish-speaking immigrants, [on] domestic violence and political asylum cases. …he described one of his immigration cases for Ayuda as “one of the most important cases I have ever handled."
