Thesis: The Schumer border bill killed McConnell. Just a huge fuck-up. Misread the electorate, the caucus, the ability of people to actually read the bill instantly online. https://t.co/tqlfb5sHU5

Biden & Mayorkas’ abuse of limited “parole” power to wave in illegals is simply stunning https://t.co/Gc1H4Agt4w It’s being challenged in court. The failed Schumer-McConnell-Lankford bill seems to cut off that challenge. (Did Lankford know this? Mayorkas surely did)… https://t.co/XtIp3TtEjt

This is close to the one-piece-to-read on why the Schumer-McConnell-Lankford border bill was bad. https://t.co/ALrviXcsv2 I wanted more on its new (soon to be overwhelmed) turbocharged asylum pathway–Sec. 235b. That’s discussed here: https://t.co/A1SQsgkzBU

For the record, the Senate leadership’s border bill–what I think Sherman was referring to–failed 50-49 on a procedural vote. 6 Dems voted against it. https://t.co/dzWASef7t5 https://t.co/4Slk4RFgiR

It’s the old contest between exit (take your business elsewhere) and voice (change from within).** Exit’s been winning–easier to pick new restaurant than teach the chef to cook.

Is Woke Medicine more likely to take over the private health care sector or government programs (like Medicare for All) I’ve always assumed the latter https://t.co/rkJIsgRHpe This thread suggests maybe not.
