04/27/2022
Tweet - "The vast majority of student loan debt is held by Americans w/ high earning potential (ex. Drs./lawyers). That's who Biden would be helping if he cancels student loan debt -- on the backs of the 64% of Americans w/o a college degree."
04/06/2022
Tweet - "Can you spot the contradiction? Dems want more COVID funding, for certain toddlers to wear masks, & to extend student loan deferrals, but they're lifting COVID policies that will lead to a border crossing surge. The pandemic is over at the border, but thriving on the playground."

10/14/2020
Tweet - "Had a great discussion at @USD 's panel on the business implications of COVID-19 & the challenges/opportunities it could present for South Dakota. Thanks to @USDPresident Gestring & Biz School Dean @Venky4 for inviting me to speak & meet some of their impressive students."

10/03/2019
Tweet - ".@LakeAreaTech is helping prepare students for today's workforce -- with programs from robotics to financial services. I often hear from businesses that have great-paying jobs, but aren't able to find skilled workers to fill them. We should encourage these types of programs."
