Details might change this, but that seems like a worse deal than either of the Goodlatte bills the GOPs in House just rejected. https://t.co/LnWd6NUEA5

“at the heart of liberty is the right to define one’s own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life.” A get-up-and-get-a-beer line if there ever was one. https://t.co/bQ3IToaWAU

"Tamed a Republican Congress"? On immigration, he's been shut out legislatively, no? No wall, most obviously. https://t.co/eYMOxGYwEl

It's been 14 hours and I haven''t seen the hot take that Republicans secretly *don't* want Roe overturned, because they will lose elections if banning abortion again becomes an open legislative question. But maybe I missed it.

Sorry, wrong link. Should be to this new @Politico article on failure of Ryan/Denham amnesty: https://t.co/A84OKNJ6IX https://t.co/8wt0SiSSMK

Shorter @Politico: GOP voters didn't like it.
The voters are always off camera, of course. But piece makes clear they're the reason HFC, and a much broader group of GOPs, and maybe Trump, couldn't get behind the Ryan/Denham amnesty. https://t.co/7A6tagBZnU

Hard to blame 40 Member House Freedom Caucus when Ryan bill came up 90+ votes short. But you knew that would be basic @Politico story line (even if belied by some reported details) https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao

Denham also intentionally blew up a deal over "path to citizenship," allegedly to test Freedom Caucus members. The man is a genius. https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao

Denham intentionally made demands to annoy Freedom Caucus. “The House Freedom Caucus will blow this up,” Denham told Aguilar, according to a source familiar with their conversation. “It will break down and we will have more signatures.” https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao via @politico

Says E-Verify had support "from across the [GOP] conference"–not just the Freedom Caucus. Good to know. https://t.co/vf77bm7yi1 … via @politico

Makes it clear GOP moderates agreed to trade away their amnesty "discharge" petition not because they were stupid but because they didn't have the votes (signatures) https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao

Hard to believe Aguilar had to educate Denham on the possibility of a discharge petition. Not that obscure. A similar immigration discharge had been big issue in 2014 https://t.co/rS02WnL9Uz when Denham was in Congress. https://t.co/iZUQAHy4ao

Don't quite see why Trump would have to trade a DACA amnesty to get a measly few billion in Wall money (especially in election year when many Dem senators in red states will be feeling the heat). He has a veto. Schumer's shutdown flop showed voter demand for amnesty wasn't there https://t.co/ddNZ8yErMN
