“The White House has pushed the Mexican government to increase deportations, implement visa restrictions” etc. Why doesn’t it push the Mexican government to restart Remain in Mexico, which worked? Then they wouldn’t have to deal with millions of migrants https://t.co/4kEk3WHGfy

She has a point. Gallagher’s timed his departure in a way that maximally screws Republicans–3 weeks too late to have a special election to fill the seat (which Republicans would likely win). If he’s going to leave early, he should leave earlier! Maybe he can be shamed into it. https://t.co/BrC4VxwA8Z

If I were a paranoid Republican, I’d wonder:
1) Mightn’t some liberal Republicans simply cross the aisle to give Dems control.
2) Mightn’t some very wealthy Ukraine supporters start offering exasperated GOP representatives lucrative private sector jobs? https://t.co/9zJ76cRiPq— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey)
