The ratchet is familiar to readers of Chief Justice Roberts’ opinion in the DACA case — i.e. it was illegal for Obama to grant work permits to those “DREAMER” illegals without a “rulemaking”. But you can’t easily rescind those illegal permits because the DACANS now have “relied” https://t.co/AVZCKZfpP7

The universal appeal thing isn’t working. Time to lean into the story and play the partisan card, which is a powerful card. (P.S.: Just because you buy a ticket doesn’t mean you have to go. It can be like one of those local police banquets.)

Here are some hard numbers from Rushfield’s own publication. @TheAnkler: Only $43M–below “Grumpy” on their scale–but also a B+ Cinemascore from actual audiences, which is apparently not good. They say “the odds don’t look great here.” https://t.co/S0vEXynGxw https://t.co/JKpa33ZRaX

Maybe I’m missing something, but it seems like Trump could have a strong and effective deportation policy even if he lost on all these issues. (Not saying he necessarily should, but maybe there is another strategy at work, which would be to distract from ordinary deportations.) https://t.co/hDO0YVwk14

True. But there are at least two separate issues, it seems to me: 1) Does Rubio have the legal power to do this to (hypothetically )Jordan Peterson and 2) Is that a really foolish and offensive thing to do. He may have the power to do a stupid thing. https://t.co/2q3dlhn6nr

He has Trump coming and going. Trump wants less of something (debt)! He wants more of something (manufacturing)! Bad either way. I’ll read the book–respect for @DKThomp — but from this it looks like the beef is that there are tradeoffs. Which I think there are. https://t.co/SFF6DDtQNO

Seems immature and crowd pleasing. Isn’t the whole field of economics based on scarcity– a realistic acceptance of scarcity as a fact of life? I had hopes Klein would speak truth to the left instead of pandering to it. (I really did-after his Dump Bidenism-not just saying that.)
