BE AFRAID: Will Trump SOTU talk amnesty? Not going to make Dems love him. Might let Dems take advantage of him. In any Enforcement + Amnesty deal amnesty will come 1st & be instantaneous; Enforcement will be blocked, slow-walked, litigated, undermined & never happen. V-bad idea. https://t.co/o7kCzCaGL7

Trump has dangled the prospect of big (11M+) amnesty before. Would be in character to dangle again, or do worse than dangle. The sort of grandiose naive idea a Jared might have. Just TALKING about amnesty encourages more unlawful immigrants to come. https://t.co/RTf1JnZX0w

“Together we can break decades of political stalemate" .."[L]isten closely to the State of the Union. I think you’ll find it very exciting.” Even more worried about big Trump/Jared amnesty gesture https://t.co/HfgXzoYa3J

.@Buzzfeed was valued at $1.7B. If it's being hosed by Facebook and Google, how does combining with a smaller $585M company save it? https://t.co/EeIaJAyFzW

THANKS, JARED! You know those anti-recidivism classes criminal justice reform incentivizes prisioners to take? They don't work. Not in CA, yet, anyway, according to state audit. https://t.co/PHsHHwUdsI

Dems’ border security proposal would release illegal immigrants into U.S. – https://t.co/eUTQ2KDhVG Fewer detention beds = more of those awaiting deportation will be released. Proposal "significantly reduces ICE detention beds" boasts Dem negotiator.

BE VERY AFRAID: "Trump's State of the Union will offer 'bipartisan way forward on immigration,'" A new, visionary call to greatness! Terrifying. I expect a Grand Javanka Amnesty Bargain for all 12M or more illegals. https://t.co/XoAE4Ltixz

NOT JUST ABOUT WALL (or "Dreamers"): Dem border plan would block much-needed narrowing of grounds for asylum. Huge issue. If fleeing a "culture of machismo" is enough — well, how much of the planet lives in a culture of machismo? https://t.co/uYJtyaRzi1

I suspect this is not true and that @ProfGalloway was right to say that the "progressive" blue parts of the country are making the greatest income gains. (That's why we got Trump!) But he could be cocooned & wrong. It's an empirical question. https://t.co/vIT3qevPxO

.@RealDonaldTrump basically admits he f—ed it all up regarding wall. 1) Should never have let it get that far into term without getting $$. 2) Trusted vague assurances from amnesty-bro Ryan. 3) Admits didn't prioritize wall-might've signed omnibus anyway https://t.co/BfQynkUA40
