Trust me, I lived in Hawaii for 41 years and no one would really want him there. Even if they were Republicans he would shut down H1, 2 & 3 and everyone would hate him because they had to sit in traffic forever.

No, JD, belonging in America does not depend on how many generations of your family have lived here. The values of this country matter - deeply - to who we are and what it means to be American.

Apparently, he’s never spoken to any of us. I’m retiring this year at 75 because as a teacher I couldn’t afford to do it earlier and I’m still not sure. Bessent I’d fail you for being unprepared for class.

I used to send books to a teacher in Lesotho. I paid extra postage so he wouldn’t be charged. He would make videos of the kids reading to me. Such joy amidst abject poverty. So let’s just destroy them so Trump can feel powerful. This is so twisted.
