.@EricLevitz: you can push #AbolishICE & other pro-Koch efforts because loudest opponents to such things are dim and/or fake (Trump, Breitbart, etc.) Go watch some MLP vids. Loudest opponents of NeoLiberalism won't always be Trumplike. A MLP-like leader would destroy your career

.@alexkotch: @EricLevitz hypes govt-guaranteed jobs (crooked Dem leaders [ie all of them] would fight immigration status checks, collapsing the pgm). He thinks Bernie's con on immig despite him going corrupt. He ignores Kochs on immig. Ignoring 5000 ton elephant = not credible

At #NYMag, @EricLevitz blogs "The Dem Party Is Moving Left - Except When You’re Not Looking". Dems & GOP both support NeoLiberal policies (free trade, loose borders, globalism). So too do "pundits" etc. Opposing NeoLiberalism can be a CLM & few have the balls to stand up.

.@EricLevitz: math quiz: there are ~9000 doctors in all of Yemen for 28 million people. If 1000 of them move to the USA as you, Trump, #Koch, USChamber, etc. want, how many doctors are left in Yemen for their 28 million people? Do you know you'd greatly harm Yemen & don't care?

.@BobWeiss91362: @EricLevitz says Trump's DACA stance is "indefensible" & indeed it is. EL isn't smart enough to figure out Trump is very, very pro-amnesty, & that that amnesty would harm U.S. workers/students *and* developing countries. #NYMag #resist

.@EricLevitz: blogging from your alt-universe, you say John Kelly is an "immigrant-bashing reactionary" & Mark Meadows is just "chairman of the far-right Freedom Caucus". If you were smart, you'd harp on the truth: both are very, very pro-amnesty. You aren't smart enough.

.@EricLevitz: you blog "Silicon Valley has nothing to gain from a travel ban that bars Iran’s vast reservoir of engineers from visiting the United States". What guarantee is they'd assimilate? I'm sure my pal @AlexNowrasteh knows many Iranian-Americans who are more loyal to Iran

.@EricLevitz: you blog "discouraging illegal immigration doesn’t grow Big Agriculture’s profit margins". Why have you, NYT, Pelosi, etc etc. consistently sought to help Western Growers etc.? Do Pelosis have financial interests in ag? Who does W.G. pay in govt & (possible) media?

.@sidhubaba: @EricLevitz reblogged DNC talking points on Brett Talley. DNC won't let him hype that Talley is a big amnesty fan, the only thing that'd undercut Talley to #MAGA & block his nomination. Is that good activist journalism, or just hack work? #TheResistance

At #NYMag, @EricLevitz blogs "Trump’s FCC Clears the Way For Big Players to Dominate Local News". And why not? His loudest opponents have shown absolutely zero competence at anything. He can do whatever he wants. #MAGA #resist #NYMag

.@skennison: @EricLevitz highlighted things about Talley that'd help Trump by endearing him to #MAGA. I highlighted a huge Talley vulnerability that'd undercut Talley & Trump to #MAGA. Which of those is more likely to undercut Trump? #TheResistance #NYMag
