"I don’t know why we put up with getting data and facts if we just gonna sit here and talk about how we feel.

So maybe we can inject some facts into these feelings. I'm not really sure, but..."

My 2¢:
How about the House adopt a rule requiring, say,
#EvidenceBasedPolicymaking?
As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants.

So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House.

The hypocrisy is outrageous.
