@cspanwj I just did a search and DDG AI repeated Wydra's claim that an upcoming case is about the "rights of immigrant farmworkers." The case is about H2a guest workers. H2a visas are not immigrant visas.
@MimiGeerges Per the SAVE Act, please show a cspanwj clip of David Becker talking about how Real ID required the kind of identification that would show citizenship. Even if Real ID’s themselves don’t show citizenship, the databases behind Real ID can be used for that purpose.
13:26 : “Thanks to Real ID...”

#steelers Interfering in the end zone can be a good strategy to use up the clock. I think that's a problem. At the very least, the offensive team should have the option to try again with the same amount of time on the clock from the original line of scrimmage.
@MarkSKrikorian Hey “Chief Nativist:” book “Nativist Nation.” Though it touts a somewhat benign definition of the moniker, it includes things that might suggest otherwise. Here’s the opening chapter. api.pageplace.de/preview/DT0…

"They reached agreements to increase legal immigration, secure the border, allow DACA recipients to become citizens, and create a path to legal status for undocumented immigrants who had been here lawfully for many years."
How is Braver Angels different?

You’ll want to read Chap 7 of Misbehaving, “Bargains & Rip-Offs.” Thaler details the difference between “transaction utility” & “acquisition utility.” The former is what you describe - spending a lot of time looking for a bargain. The latter is what matters - consumer surplus.
Though it's understandably sad about what was lost, but it would be a mistake to keep that from clearly deciding what is the best option looking forward.
@whignewtons @DavidAFrench Could you do an Advisory Opinions segment on whether this phrase in the law that created public broadcasting has any legal significance? If not, why not? If it does, is there a legal path to making it real?
Your appearance on Washington Journal seemed to me to be a rather un-reflective defense of journalists in the face of record low approval rating, and there’s a symmetry between those things. While much criticism has ulterior motivations, there’s plenty that is legitimate.
@cspanwj @MimiGeerges If you’re interested in correcting caller misinformation, the caller from Alabama had it exactly backward about federally recognized tribes paying taxes.

For many people, having a home to live in requires doing things that are involuntary, in that choosing not to do those things would result in not having a home. Grants Pass
In what world would enough Democrats vote for an immigration enforcement bill? The only chance for such legislation was the link between it and Ukraine funding, something you promised, then abandoned. Removing employment eligibility provisions; 38 years since IRCA promise.
If this is accurate, I apologize to @SpeakerJohnson for any undeserved blame attributed to him for the lack of a decent border legislation outcome.

Immigration is great and should be celebrated every day!
Except when it dismembers your society by pushing young people out of the housing market and away from marriage & parenthood.
Then you shouldn't mention it at all. Oh gosh no.
When Justin Trudeau took office, a Canadian household earning the median income could cover the costs of owning an average home by spending 39% of their pay, according to RBC. Now that figure is 64% econ.st/3xh7Zly 👇
@whignewtons David Greene; “The U.S. Supreme Court is still embroiled in a debate whether mifepristone should be pulled from the market.”
Not only did you not correct Greene, you repeated that misinformation: “banning a drug that’s been on the market for 20 years."
Of course people might think removal was at issue, as long as that’s what they hear in the media, despite the 5th Circuit having nixed that option. Removing it made no sense to me.

@MarkSKrikorian Washington Journal scheduled Brandon Judd today but he had other commitments. They promised to reschedule. That seems like an opportunity to weigh in on that segment by writing an article on the lines of “what Brandon Judd gets wrong about the Senate border bill.”

As followers of the @iaproject I assume your interest in accountability. To that end, is it reasonable to ask candidates to enter into a conversation to produce a clear campaign document that does that? (1
