The epistemological status of this E-verify proposal is highly suspect. It's like something out of quantum physics–it's there but it can't be observed or discussed. How does that move the consensus GOP position (which is what the Jared initiative was supposed to do). https://t.co/ZjaNm0EZDD

In where? In the Secret Scrolls of Jared that only you know about but that will never see the light of day, never be sold to voters or endorsed by pols, let alone become law? https://t.co/y1A0mGycqI

E-Verify is not in the speech, mandatory or non-mandatory. That was supposed to be the big border-control advance–moving the "center" to endorse E-verify.
You have a funny idea of 100%! https://t.co/UioXmEdQ4C— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) May 17, 2019

Don't think that's right. Ending the per country cap doesn't add to the total number, just shifts it to Indians & Chinese (who've bumped up against the cap) vs. other countries. https://t.co/z9Eni1zc8P

Pelosi's right–"merit" is a terrible word to throw around. Trump's voters weren't the ones with "merit." They were the ones sneered at for not having "merit." … Try "skills" instead. https://t.co/7SoXycocBN –

What is chain migration?
SPOUSES & CHILDREN = NOT CHAIN
EXTENDED FAMILY (adult brothers & sisters, adult sons & daughter) = CHAIN
But that is why "chain" is a bad word to use. Academics use it, but not widely understood. Why not "Clan migration"? https://t.co/nQT2ci0ANE https://t.co/WrYsOlNiU2— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) May 16, 2019

NEW FEAR! If Jared's bill turns into a bland Koch/merit donor signal that sinks like a stone, will Lindsey Graham's asylum reform-for-amnesty swap become the main vehicle for actual potential legislating? https://t.co/5mqqDsoI1L

This seems inevitable. The idea that overturning Roe would 'return the abortion issue to the states' has always been in large part fiction, no? https://t.co/5OV2xmld93

This seems like MSM fixated on hope of grand amnesty. My impression is basically nobody's struggled to amnesty ALL 11 million illegals-as opposed to just Dreamers-since '16, unless you count the no-deportation rule Schumer snuck into the failed Rounds Bill https://t.co/IiwWEXni5p https://t.co/gCVf4UX0Ny

That's my view — i.e. even his (non-McCainish) defenses of Trump are ultimately designed to let him push (McCainish) amnesty. So far, no discordant data. …. https://t.co/8pAi8Hlnjn

Pretty amazing that with migrants pouring across the border unchecked at the rate of a million a year, @LindseyGrahamSC thinks it's a good time to talk about amnestying ALL 11 MILLION [or more] illegals who are already here. https://t.co/sZjeukglei
