A gentle reminder that balance, not excess, is where peace lives. Let go, and find the calm waiting for you. #MindfulLiving

Trump, DECEMBER 28, 2024: "I have always been in favor of the visas... I’ve been a believer in H-1B... It’s a great program"

Trump, MARCH 15, 2016: "I know the H1B very well... We shouldn’t have it. Very, very bad for workers... it’s unfair for our workers. And we should end it."

TRUMP: I will. First of all, I think and I know the H1B very well. And it’s something that I frankly use and I shouldn’t be allowed to use it. We shouldn’t have it. Very, very bad for workers. And second of all, I think it’s very important to say, well, I’m a businessman and I have to do what I have to do.

When it’s sitting there waiting for you, but it’s very bad. It’s very bad for business in terms of - and it’s very bad for our workers and it’s unfair for our workers. And we should end it. Very importantly, the Disney workers endorsed me, as you probably read.

And I got a full endorsement because they are the ones that said, and they had a news conference, and they said, he’s the only one that’s going to be able to fix it. Because it is a mess. I think for a period of a year to two years we have to look back and we have to see, just to answer the second part of your question, where we are, where we stand, what’s going on.

I not only don’t know if any student is LGBTQ, I also don’t know their immigration status.

Sorry, officer, I just don’t know anything.

If you are a teacher, you do not know the status of your students.

Really, you don't.

Haven't got a clue, move along, officer.

‘We’re again saving the very worst piece of legislation for the middle of the night where everyone has tuned out.’

After midnight, the #Ohio House passes 11th-hour bill forcing teachers and counselors to out #LGBTQ+ students. The bill now heads to Gov. DeWine.
