Seems pretty transparent what Talarico’s up to. State of the art fake moderate–actually, no, he’s state of the art circa 2007. Still thinks “pathway to citizenship” is a good poll-tested phrase that will fool the voters. (It means amnesty.). https://t.co/MMUcVBrdEG

Excellent piece but
1. Are regulations executive functions? They seem legislative, which is why the independent agencies were initially considered creatures of Congress, if I remember right.
2. So we don’t want to give all that lawmaking power to the President. Wrong branch! https://t.co/ECCp5Rrz14— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey)

Why lump together all years between 1979 and 2019? How about: From about 2014 thru 2019 we had an economy everyone loved-growth, low unemployment and inflation, rising real incomes at bottom (more important than less inequality, which we had too). We want that economy back. COVID https://t.co/fSvDf0B9t6

I don’t remember Trump talking about “recent arrivals.” Suspect that’s an Erick Erickson policy you’re sneaking into your retrospective history. Not a crazy idea, but not Trump’s idea.

Trump is apparently saying that in, e.g., the existing visa category that let’s in aliens with “extraordinary ability,” he can decide that a $1M gift is conclusive evidence of “extraordinary ability.” You think that’s a plausible interpretation of what Congress meant? https://t.co/NlmEJD5wC9

Does Trump have any more authority to unilaterally open up his “Gold Card” pathway into the US than Obama had to decree his DACA amnesty? (He has broad power to “suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens,” but this is ushering them in.) https://t.co/NhuN2e5ldD
