I’m tired, but this seems like maybe a good idea-for the House, if not Senate. And if it could pass. Dems couldn’t say Republicans didn’t try. But it might increase the possibility of a conference (or Senate amending the bill and sending it back to House) no? That could be bad https://t.co/VjSVxX3LxA

GOP had a lot of leverage to make border progress in exchange for Ukraine aid. What happened? Short tentative answer: McConnell happened. He allied with Schumer to preempt issue with wildly inadequate bill. https://t.co/cLd9L0k68q

There’s a column in this for someone.

It doesn’t seem impossible that Biden will react to the bill’s failure (assuming it fails) by cracking down on the border to change his image before November. He’s already gotten Mexico to slow the flow (until November). GWBush had a bit of that reaction after Gang of 8 fizzle. https://t.co/35X6ROxmYR
