"Texas officials flag tens of thousands of voters for citizenship checks" https://t.co/rrKVWPUjnx This is the respectable, non-Trumpy report on this story. Still not exactly reassuring. They "could have become naturalized citizens."

The proposal I dismiss here — instead of a shutdown, spending goes on CR-like autopilot — is making more and more sense to me. Each side (Congress, WH) would have hostages — the hostages would be whatever changes to the status quo the other side wanted. Seems worth trying, no? https://t.co/e2zK3msfZw

I once asked a smart Democrat who'd worked with Jared Kushner about his strengths & weaknesses. Got back: 1) He doesn't know what he doesn't know 2) Icewater in his veins. Recent events see to confirm this combo (which is a risky one!) https://t.co/hFoaEJSQGZ

If it's going to be 21 days of the Jared Kushner Show, with your out-of-league son-in-law offering up increasingly large & awful amnesty plans in exchange for some wall money, please PULL THE PLUG NOW. https://t.co/ftInHeyW7F

Big mistake for Pelosi to pivot to impeachment so soon, no? a) She should be letting Trump wallow in bad shutdown press a little longer. Instead she's helping make it old news more quickly; b) Reinforces suspicion that getting rid of Trump is what wall fight was really about … https://t.co/R93IoDw6uP

EVERYONE HATES JARED, Episode 2: "Within the White House, several aides said, Mr. Kushner is not interested in opinions that vary from his, and tends to view people who disagree with him as problems, closing them out of discussions." https://t.co/MNHngvIq6s

Raising money isn't the same as appropriating it for the wall. We have plenty of money. Point is Trump never got Congress to let him spend it on wall. Early on he & his aides let Schumer/Dems go in and actually tie up funds to prevent wall. Total negligence. https://t.co/3pmS5oPlMe

Trump "said Ryan should have gotten him money before he left." Trump had two years. He was president. He let Ryan string him along until it was too late? Failure is on him. https://t.co/bcAanwg5Xp

Armchair theory: The people Jared negotiates with know he's 1) unfireable 2) proud 3) insecure (he must know that both left & right are eager to disparage him, as in the story below) 4) vindictive. So maybe they don't tell him the unvarnished truth! So he is often surprised … https://t.co/PXcOvFK3lp
