.@Mitchkrebsbach: Trump's FEMA made big mistakes during/after Maria. Can you direct me to anyone - @JonathanBlitzer, etc. etc. - even trying to hold Trump accountable? (Note: sleazy anti-American things that only help Trump obviously don't count).

.@DanKaszeta: FEMA is one of Trump's many Achilles heels. Instead of using it against him or to hold him accountable, list the things those with megaphones have done instead:

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@AnneAnnapolis: "who got bought off"? You should ask that of those pushing the Big Biz line: @michaelluo & @JonathanBlitzer. Trump's horrific, but they'd greatly increase the U.S. labor supply & greatly help U.S. Chamber, Koch, WalMart, McDonald's, Tyson Foods, growers, etc.

.@Stephynb: you cheer @JonathanBlitzer trying to blame mass illegal immigration on climate change. Is that true of the MII in the 50s, 60s,.. too? The much greater contributing factor is Dem/GOP pols & those like Blitzer who enable MII despite huge downsides (incl border deaths)

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@GrayShadowTech: foreign policy plays a role in mass illegal immigration, and (let's pretend) climate change might too. However, the much bigger cause is those like @JonathanBlitzer & Dem/GOP leaders who enable it despite the huge negative impacts (incl more border deaths).

.@JonathanBlitzer: ICE shouldn't be yahoos. However, few "immigrants" (as you call them) are deported. Correct term: illegal aliens.
