Also: a) They knew where kid was. b) Kid had his own lawyer. c) Father WAS reunited with kid in Guat. 2 months later. Obviously it makes more sense to deport together. But we're not told if kid's lawyer objected or somehow delayed that.

1) These kids mainly arrived "unaccompanied"-not "seized from…parents"; 2) Most (80%) were released TO parents or close relatives-who were typically also undoc & maybe not eager to talk to feds. 1475 is # feds couldn't reach by phone https://t.co/HdVogp5NKH https://t.co/M3QJPthfCk

Charlie LeDuff works at a hot dog diner "for the health care [it] offers"–"it means his daughter has health care." What was wrong w/ Obamacare? Isn't Obamacare designed for people in LeDuff's situation? https://t.co/JsWipO7ThX Seems like there's a story here whatever the answer

Amazon is "perhaps the biggest job engine in the United States"? Don't you have to also look at the jobs (e.g. the entire retail sector) Amazon is destroying? Why sound like Amazon PR? https://t.co/2N3P1sJDMV Yes, there's a weak to-be-sure graf ("Amazon is no saint, certainly")

Re: cheerleading–Goes w/o saying that @NYT describes pro-discharge group as "cooperative" while their opponents are "hard-right" & "uncompromising." More important, NYT doesn't mention that Goodlatte bill w/ "hard-right" wants to vote on also protects DACAns https://t.co/3DBV76MpHZ

The @WashingtonPost's treatment is way more accurate/less cheerleadery–noting signers are either a) from Hispanic or Hillary districts b) retiring or c) doing bidding of local farmers https://t.co/b4P7AayIVI https://t.co/Eyb8fLDBq5

Ot 235 House GOPs, 21 have signed the Dreamer discharge petition. Just as many GOP moderates seem to have signed on to the Goodlatte bill. Seems a little much for @NYTimes to declare that "[T]he centrists…are finally putting their foot down." https://t.co/NSKYXjr0qS
