DHS isn't saying how many miles of NEW border wall it has built. Is that because the number is … zero? https://t.co/jAb0CsTlsp

New occupational category: Mindfulness Facilitator. Used in context: "Learn how to begin a meditation practice and incorporate mindfulness into daily tasks with a UCLA Mindfulness Facilitator."
Someday we will all be Mindfulness Facilitators. (Or can robots do that too?)

Not saying this "czar" appointment has all the earmarks of a disaster. But it has a lot of them! Nominee not known for his immigration expertise, despised by both parties, shoehorned into a subsidiary position in DHS and told to somehow make it happen. Help, @LouDobbs! https://t.co/u0U8R8aNQZ

You'd think that might be possible: They don't want Kobach to run in Kansas, and they hate Cuccinelli … https://t.co/4PSaRETf8v

Kobach came with a list of demands that would allow him to succeed. It's as if Cuccinelli came with a list that would guarantee his failure. He's going to control 5 cabinet secretaries as a DHS underling? https://t.co/DkgtIEP4TO

Again: The 1934ists (eg Adam Gopnik, Ron Rosenbaum) warned us after Trump won that the jackboots of the state would be coming after reporters. They didn't tell us it would be in San Friancisco. https://t.co/Ft71FyR7BU

Sometimes a flawed character with an non-perfect history is nevertheless the right man for the job. Example: the Secret Service head who brought down the KKK, described in @ChuckLane1's book . A good hire. https://t.co/1vxJapgbPr https://t.co/leuLxmc8ne

Anti-Miller rumblings from the immigration-control side surface in @RyanGirdusky's twitter feed. (I have no dog in this. Just noting. Girdusky not alone in his view.)

a) Cuccinelli thinks like Trump on immigration?
b) Trump doesn't have anyone at DHS who thinks like him now? https://t.co/0HlorDdklT— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) May 21, 2019
