Rep. Randy Fine: "We should not be bringing people into America to get an education who hate us. They should be coming here to get an education, and frankly they should keep their mouths shut beyond that."

Absolutely wrong - if that were the case Alexis de Tocqueville would not have written Democracy in America, nor Thomas Paine's Common Sense or The American Crisis. Speaking out IS American - not complicity, Comrade...

Randy Fine and his ilk want to be the only ones who can hate on Americans!!! If he could only follow his own advice and get educated and shut up.

Maybe we should be asking who can afford to send their children here to be educated and realize how this will affect their parents business decisions in the future.

Not many remember that Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus" (give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free etc...) ends with "and keep their mouths shut beyond that."

And also, the First Amendment does not just protect American citizens. And also, as Americans we believe that Free Speech is a universal right. If Chinese people want to talk shit about China while in China, they should be able to.

When the US becomes the science and tech backwater that they want they will realise that international students benefit the US more than the US benefits them. The danger of having a bunch of ignorant uneducated Neanderthals running government.

As a Jewish American (and Harvard grad!!) Fine clearly doesn't know his history. Isolationists in the 1930s and early 1940s said the exact same thing about Jewish refugees to the U.S. who argued publicly for the U.S. to intervene to stop Hitler:

Please🙄as if it makes a difference whether you're a foreign student or American citizen. Anyone who speaks on behalf of Palestine (not Hamas) is labelled as antisemitic or a Hamas sympathiser. How on earth are children and babies a danger to anyone such that they're being murdered indiscriminately?

Everything that is happening in the Trump administration, the deconstruction the social safety net for the poor & gave the money to tax cuts for the rich is the fault of the 77 million voters, the fault of Christian hypocrites, the fault of old white nationalists voted for this nightmare .

You don't complain about it? What do you think you're doing now. Their spending their money here, Harvard isn't cheap. Most universities would close down or curtail their curriculam if foreign students weren't allowed in, which just might be your plan all along. Hate us? I hate right fucking now.

Where has all this stupidity been hiding? What ever school they graduated from should be evaluated! I hope they can read and if so they should start with the constitution.

This chode is my congressman, following in the horrifically abysmal footsteps of Mike Waltz and Ron DeSantis. Fl-6 has some nice beaches, but once you go a mile inland, it becomes a toxic, primordial soup of racist northern retirees and two-teeth, sister-banging, meth-snorting Florida white trash.

We should not be electing people to Congress who hate us. They should be passing legislation to help the American people, and frankly they should keep their mouths shut beyond that.

"I don't go into someone else's house and complain about it when I'm there." Jesus fucking Christ, Randy, that is LITERALLY the entire Republican platform anymore.

🇨🇦🇺🇦🤔Rep Randy Fine, Just an FYI: Every single time you open your overweight pie-hole you remind Canadians exactly why we never want to visit the United States. Your attack on fundamental rights which includes freedom of speech enables me to tell you to f*ck off.

Its not uncommon for people to move to a place and then hate living there due to unforseen circumstances. Its okay to criticize the place you live, even if studying abroad. These fat idiots are fascist enablers. Dissent is perfectly acceptable.

When a Dem opponent emerges ANYWHERE, be sure to post their official campaign account, the state and district they are across SM with a little blurb of who they are and whose but they need to kick so we all can share!🗳 I keep a list by state and post whenever the GOP speaks their cruelty. Resist.✊️

First Amendment. It's a good place to start reading! The whole Constitution is less than 20 pages! Time to read it again. Seriously. All of us. Too many seem to want to ignore it, or have no idea what it says. How can WE defend it if we don't know what it says??📜🧐 RESIST DISINFORMATION.

One thing about Trump's USA that has actually shocked me... I didn't realise just quite how many truly objectionable Americans there were until they were given permission to be their worst selves :(

"I don't go into someone else's house and complain about it when I'm there. They are guests ... and they should realize that and there's a real problem with folks not understanding that." As a guest in the People's House, Randy Fine should take these words to heart. Hatred has no place there.
