On Monday, President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania announced their special guests at the President’s first State of the Union address on Tuesday:

•The parents of two young women, Nisa Mickens and Kayla Cuevas, friends who were brutally murdered by MS-13 gang members.
•The first blind, double-amputee to reenlist in the Marine Corps, Corporal (Ret.) Matthew Bradford, who had been injured by an IED explosion while serving in Iraq.
•The founder of a non-profit rescue and recovery organization that has provided aid to thousands of people across the South victimized by floods and storms, including Hurricane, Jon Bridgers.
•Fire prevention technician David Dahlberg who saved 62 children from a raging wildfire in Southern California.
•Police Officer Ryan Holets, who has served six years on the force in Albuquerque, New Mexico, been shot twice and, along with his wife, adopted a baby from parent who suffered from opioid addiction.
•Coast Guard Aviation Technician Ashlee Leppert who rescued dozens of Americans during last year’s devastating hurricane season.
•Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Agen Celestino “CJ” Martinez, whose investigations have led to arrests of more than 100 MS-13 gang members who have been prosecuted for crimes, including homicide, assault, narcotics and weapons trafficking.
•U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Justin Peck, who was directly responsible for saving Chief Petty Officer Stacy’s life after Stacy was severely injured during an explosion in Syria last year.
•A veteran’s son, Preston Sharp, who has organized the placement of more than 40,000 flags and red carnations on soldiers’ graves, in honor of their service to the country.
•The president and vice president of Staub Manufacturing Solutions, a contract manufacturing company, who gave increased bonuses to their employees, thanks to last year’s tax reform legislation.
•A skilled welder, Corey Adams, who, with his wife, became first-time homeowners and invested extra money into their daughters’ education savings as a result of tax reform.

Meanwhile, Democrats’ guests at the State of the Union include:

•Illegal aliens brought as guests by House Minority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-California) and other Democrats,
•A transgender Marine Corp veteran who opposes Pres. Trump’s efforts to ban transgenders from U.S. military service,
•The wife of an Iraqi man living in Michigan who was convicted of a weapons charge, spent two years in prison, and ordered deported in 1994, who was arrested and detained by immigration officials in 2017 – and who is leading a class-action suit against the U.S. government’s effort to deport detainees, and
•The daughter of a man deported after being criminally convicted in 1997 of knowingly possessing false identification to defraud the United States, who was detained and ordered deported in October of 2017 after illegally returning to the U.S.

Since Democrats are inviting illegal aliens, the President should invite ICE agents to sit with them

What should Trump do about SOTU illegals? Ignore them, or announce that Id’s will be checked? Or something else? Two dozen is a major FU both to Trump and to those who care about citizenship.

It's time to clean up our military.

Obama and the Democrats allowed a freakshow of homosexual mental patients in so as to degrade its readiness and to defeat its mission.

I would have 30 armed ICE Agents come to the podium with the President, and have the cameras pan to the faces of the Illegal Invaders.

With all the illegals and criminals the ‘Rats are bringing - ICE and other law enforcement agencies ought to officers on hand to arrest and detain these offenders.

And the ‘Rats themselves for aiding and abetting criminal activities.

Waiting to see what Trump’s response will be to Dems who sit on their hands during the address.

Wouldn’t you need to show some ID and have a screening before entering the building, especially with the President and Vice President present?

Who’s advising the Dems? This is the kind of hapless job a RINO political adviser would do.

Dems invite transgender veteran and illegal alien.

The Dem guest list always looks like the table at the pledge party in Animal House where they put all the dorks.

We alwyays have the cool kids.

I cannot believe this incredibly brave man would show his face and give his real name. I hope he gets to wear a mask.

Haha. Look in the back of that crew. There’s always one white guy. If you want a really good laugh, find you a white guy in a Mexican gang. Listen to them talk. You will die laughing. And their placasa (nickname) is almost always “Huero”.
