Trump’s White America immigration policy in action in Mississippi. @clarionledger is a @Gannett paper so who knows what its future is, but it has several good stories on this.
Thread. More on the @ICEgov family separation raids in Mississippi today, via @WJTV television reporter @AlexLoveWJTV

Thread. Can’t praise highly enough reporting done by @mattshuham of @TPM on Trump administration’s evisceration of USDA’s Economic Research Service & National Institute of Food and Agriculture. This has been a contemptuous & brazenly dishonest proceeding implemented to....
....strip American farmers and ranchers of valuable research support and Congress of important sources of policy advice and information — and to wreck the careers of over a hundred career government employees. @TPM gave it better coverage than did much of the farm press.
A more personal perspective on the capricious mutilation of ERS & NIFA comes from @ucdavis professor @amandavcrump in this thread.

Some worst-case scenarios on 2020 Russian election interference from @jonathanchait. They could happen; the Republican Party will take no steps to make them less likely to happen. A couple of things follow from this. [thread]
2. One should be obvious. Most Americans didn’t take Russian election interference seriously in 2016 because it hadn’t happened before — no Facebook ads, no stolen e-mails, no hacking of state election systems as documented by the Senate Intelligence Committee. None of that.
3. The Russian regime’s assistance to Trump will be a campaign issue in 2020. Putin, Fox, Trump, and every Republican backing Trump will be on the same side. The rest of the country will be on the other. The #MoscowMitch hashtag is just the beginning.

This comment by @jiwallner yesterday was about election security. But it would apply to gun safety legislation as well. Senate procedures do provide ways to force floor debates, and votes, on urgent legislation. They don’t guarantee majority support, and require some work...
...on the part of Senators who want the floor debates and votes. But the institution provides options. Current practice — as @jiwallner points out frequently — is to rely exclusively on unanimous consent requests made by the Majority Leader or his designee to begin...
...floor consideration of legislation. Current practice is also to complain when McConnell refuses to initiate consideration, or has a Republican Senator object to someone else’s unanimous consent request. The complaining is ineffectual, but it doesn’t take much work.

#Thread President Trump discussing immigration during Press Conference after G20 Summit.

"[Mexico has] very very tough immigration. They don't have the kind of stupidity that we have, where somebody touches one foot on our sand and we now have to bring them into a court." 1/
Trump on the border crisis: "If you have a child it's much easier to come into our country...so we have these kids who have been absolutely abused, horribly abused, & we could stop that with a minor change in the law. It's a terrible thing that [Congress is] not doing it." 2/
President Trump explaining how walls and a stronger immigration system (ending the magnet) would be vital in helping end the humanitarian crisis at the border. 3/

Jews are SO supportive of non-White mass immigration! And Fake Israel desperately needs Jews, so it just makes sense to export them all to "Israel". Don't you agree @jaredkushner @IvankaTrump?

Thread: WHILE YOU WERE NOT LOOKING #Immigration
What the Trump admin did to immigration while everyone was busy with #StormyDaniels and the $hitshow that is this presidency:
👏 @AmericasVoice
1-ICE ended policy of presuming release for pregnant detainees;
ICE detention centers (and the for profit ones) are ill-equipped to treat medical issues pregnant women face.
Ice stating fear of flight. We tax payers pay for ankle monitors-Cheaper
This is the previous policy
2- Considering a policy to deny legal residency-deport legal immigrants who rely on Earned Income tax credit &health insurance subsidies (Tax paying immigrants) not to mention undocumented immigrants leave $10 billion in taxes they never file to collect. apps.washingtonpost.com/g/documents/wo…

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
