@PatrickRuffini Anyone following immigration debates in Congress for the last 15 years knows that it’s the GOP and not the Democrats who have been afraid to take the votes. Many of us will not forget what happened in 2013, when the house GOP buried what had been a bipartisan plan.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@PatrickRuffini Amazing to see that even still, your allegiance is so strongly to your party and not to the country. And not even to a long-term vision of your party, but instead just a vision that clings to Trump. Shameful, but also deeply sad.

@jadler1969 Willhoit’s law. That’s all it is. (*Not All Conservatives, but a huge number of those that call themselves that these days)

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@bethanyshondark @mbrooksrjc It’s telling that this is even considered a “hard stance.” mainstream liberals, and sane conservatives, who all left the GOP, have been warning about this for years. You’ve been inching toward the right end of the horseshoe for years, & now want to pull back before you fall off?

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@bungarsargon @KevinRobertsTX Funny to realize you’ve been focusing all your energy and anger on the wrong side for the past few years. Many of us mainstream liberals have been seeing for years what you just seem to be realizing today.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@bethanyshondark And the right side of that horseshoe is far, far more dangerous than the left side.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@bethanyshondark You’ve chosen the wrong side. The other side is an actually both ends of a horseshoe, but you put yourself very close to one end—much closer than mainstream liberals are to the other end.

@matthewstoller @izzy_strelka @dieworkwear @selise Partial automation would change this somewhat but you don’t have any evidence for your assumption that the differential in labor cost would be trivial.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@matthewstoller @izzy_strelka @dieworkwear @selise There’s no basis for you to assume wages are 5% of the cost, or would be at that level under any plausible scenario. And of course wave differential is what makes that number variable! There are plenty of sources on this but here’s a popular-press account. https://t.co/SfxfAjxQ7g

@matthewstoller @migueldeicaza @dieworkwear Nice use of passive voice (as well as quite an odd chain of inferences) to trash “the left” here.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@EWErickson Nah. Kennedy is in charge of HHS because of who the conservative movement chose as their presidential candidate. The conservative movement went off the deep end and elected an insane person as president, who has appointed unqualified pranks to virtually every cabinet position.

@Yukon_Hiker @njh2005 This is really embarrassing for you. Take the L.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@whoismrzero @AntiClanker1337 @AnthonyMKreis You’re embarrassing yourself with this weird reflexive reaction to anything you fantasize as left/liberal. The constitutional principle of equity literally is what the OP was discussing. Just take the L.

@YIMBYLAND @zapatas_mom @whstancil Trump’s election—twice!—along with the dramatic rightward migration of successful GOP politicians provide incredibly strong evidence that the median-voter theorem doesn’t explain US voting at the state or federal level.

@JohnDryden85 @JackFiller17 @Tzor @JLLiedl I think it matters that Halleluyah is a compound word with a precise syntactic meaning in Hebrew (praise be to Yah [the Lord God]). In Greek and Latin, Alleluia originated in transliteration & was directly imported w/o independent meaning.

@DieHardySix @Noahpinion Now I think you’re probably trolling, since Gavin Newsom famously was sleeping with the wife of his good friend & campaign manager, while Newsom was married to his first wife.

[Snowflake (Ted Cruz's Dog) @SnowflakeADog]

@glukianoff This is really beneath you: ascribing bad-faith motives w/o evidence, using ad hominem & invective. What happened to you? If anything, recent events at UATX, Trump admin’s bad-faith use of antiwoke & anti-antisemitism to stoke state repression etc tend to prove critics correct.
