Any more than one and a) Dems will demand something border-related for *them* and b) it opens up opportunities for mischief in the fine print. Keep it simple. Laws are hard to change. Better to codify one solid reform than three half-assed Schumerized compromises. https://t.co/v1JRH2uN7h

Again my Solomonic solution is to take Ukraine aid bill & attach 1 GOP provision cut-and-pasted from HR2: E-Verify or restricting “parole” for example. Or just a provision establishing primacy of president’s 212(f) power. A clear but finite win for GOP. No Schumer funny business https://t.co/2oxqogRvcw

But it doesn’t actually get Mayorkas off the hook, or portray Biden as the ‘head of the snake.’ Who was making the actual (disastrous) policy while the WH was consumed with rivalry, backbiting and ducking responsibility? Mayorkas was. https://t.co/uszlPJV7JC
