Immigration issues are getting complicated in Washington. A bunch of Republicans now are wishing they could outlaw undocumented meetings between the president and Democrats.
---
In the last two weeks, the president met with Democrats twice, once to work out a deal to keep the government funded for another three months, and the other time to work out a deal to help the undocumented children of immigrants. If this works out, Republicans soon may be the ones begging for amnesty, for whatever it is they have done to offend the White House.

Actually, the president had better be careful with his own party’s base, or he might end up being cast as the nation’s biggest railroad booster. That is, whenever Republicans up for election see him coming, they will start making tracks in the opposite direction.

Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton has come out with a book about what happened in the 2016 election. Sure, it’s easy to wistfully imagine what things would be like with Hillary in the White House — evening dinners with Democratic leaders working out solutions to budget problems and immigration … Wait, could Trump be doing all this just to sabotage her book sales?

Free markets and competition are great for consumers. When the government broke up the telephone monopoly 35 years ago, who could have guessed that one day we could buy a new phone for only $999?
---Sure, $999 sounds expensive for the iPhone X, but we have to remember that phones in the early 1980s couldn’t turn your face into a talking, singing and dancing poop emoji.
---
Back in those unenlightened days, we didn’t even know what a poop emoji was. How did we survive?

Apple’s newly unveiled iPhone X uses facial recognition as an unlocking device. That opens a world of fun for identical twins and makes Halloween a night without phone service, which pretty much justifies the price.
---
How far have we come in 35 years? The newest, coolest phone was unveiled at a press conference without anyone bothering to ask whether it actually can make and receive phone calls.
