News on the immigration front: Judiciary Committee (Durbin, Cornyn, Tillis) trying to talk immigration reform again. “I don’t want to hear the word reconciliation ... That holds up false hope," Durbin says. He's looking for 60 votes https://t.co/3ZrTF0EIk0 @marianne_levine — PolitiTweet.org

@natalie_allison Trump publicly aired his grievances against Brooks as “a gut check,” per person close to Trump. Trump is not rushing to rescind his endorsement, but... Sen.
