    What do major Republican donors like Sheldon Adelson and Paul Singer have in common with Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi? They are all in favor of immigration reform.


    The Republican rank and file may be divided, and the prospects for the Senate’s immigration compromise in the House gloomy, but among the biggest donors to Republican causes in the 2012 cycle, there is overwhelming support for immigration reform

    Good news for the public, MAGA-Dems deal making season has started again. This should put a dent in aspirations of liberal Dems looking to impeach him.
    Bold leadership by Pelosi, Schumer and art of the deal guru:


    No cameras, no conservative handlers: Trump wheels and deals with Democrats

    House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer had a very clear wish on the eve of Tuesday’s meeting with President Trump: No cameras, no live TV.
    “I hope not,” the Maryland Democrat said Monday evening, believing Trump on camera and Trump off camera are different personalities. “That doesn’t lead to productive discussions.”
    With Hoyer’s wish granted, Trump and a dozen congressional Democrats sat behind closed doors at a White House meeting that by all accounts was cordial and productive. They announced a framework for a $2 trillion infrastructure deal that would transform roads, bridges, public transit, rural broadband and more.
    Chances are this deal collapses well before the next meeting of this same group, tentatively set for three weeks off. Republicans back at the Capitol demonstrated little appetite for such an expensive project.
    But the meeting served as the latest example of how differently Trump acts around House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.), depending on the optics.
    Give him a closed room, no TV cameras, without conservative handlers around — his chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) were not on hand — and Trump turns into the wheeler and dealer of the Manhattan real estate world.
    “I like the number you’ve been using, Nancy, $2 trillion,” the president privately told Pelosi and other Democrats on Tuesday, according to a Democratic readout of the meeting. He had endorsed a $2 trillion plan, a stunning break from conservative orthodoxy.
    But if Trump ushers the top Democrats into a meeting with the press corps on hand, he turns into the blunt-talking reality-TV star who gained fame by insulting others and declaring “You’re fired.”
    “It’s not easy for her to talk right now,” Trump said to the cameras in a December meeting as Pelosi sat next to him. He insulted her by suggesting she would not to win the speaker’s race a few weeks off.

    [From ‘He likes us’ to ‘Sad!’: The rise and fall of the Trump-Schumer-Pelosi partnership]

    This week’s meeting had all the echoes of a September 2017 meeting with just Schumer, Pelosi, Trump and some senior aides discussing a broad range of issues related to immigration.
    The walk-up to that meeting had been contentious, with Trump announcing that he was giving Congress six months to come up with a resolution to the standoff on the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals executive action, taken by then-President Barack Obama, protecting more than 1 million immigrants from deportation.

    But when he met with Pelosi and Schumer, Trump gave in to Democratic demands that would allow a path to citizenship for those “dreamers.” The president even issued a tweet guaranteeing no deportations for those under DACA protections as Congress worked out the details of the deal, a tweet that Pelosi specifically asked him to deliver.

    Every time Trump has met with Congressional leaders in the White House, he has gone back on the deal. But it is good PR. They had one on DACA and avoiding the government shutdown.

    Supreme Court to hear arguments in legal battle over DACA in November


    By Camilo Montoya-Galvez

    Early last month, the Democratic-led House passed the latest version of the DREAM Act, an ambitious expansion of a nearly two-decades-long legislative effort that would place millions of DACA recipients — as well as DACA-eligible young immigrants and those with temporary protected status — on a pathway to U.S. citizenship.

    Gorsuch was right in those cases and he will not rule for DACA.
