And especially on a day when I heard about more #disability austerity that will affect my daughter

It's not about the damn oval office visit, & the poxy bowl of shamrock. It's all the other non public meetings with trade, agriculture and immigration officials & policy makers. That's how the J1 student visas scheme came aboit. It's 5 days of such meetings. #Irishpol #paddysday #spéirgorm
