Issues and disagreements can only be resolved through effective communication. Therefore, if I have unintentionally offended you in any way, I would appreciate it if you could express your feelings directly. It's possible that I may not be aware of the impact of my actions, as I'm not able to read minds. If you are concerned about a negative reaction, feel free to discuss the matter with someone you trust, who can convey your thoughts to me without causing conflict. Open and honest communication is key to understanding and resolving any potential issues. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 1 month ago

Look at the border. Do you know we’ve had 3.8 million illegal immigrants cross that border, 800,000 more got-aways, 4.5 million people broke the law and came here illegally? and Biden and Warnock helped them do it. Now, I am the daughter of Indian immigrants. They came here legally, they put in the time, they put in the price, they are offended by what’s happening on that border. Legal immigrants are more patriotic than the leftists these days. They knew they worked to come into America, and they love America. They want the laws followed in America, so the only person we need to make sure we deport is Warnock. – Nikki Haley	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
My understanding right now, from multiple clubs, is that the Nationals are asking for four to five top young players — a combination of prospects and major leaguers with low service time, now, that’s a monstrous ask, but that’s Juan Soto. He’s 23 years old, you’re getting him for three pennant races. Teams are not offended by what the Nationals want, but they’re worried that they can’t meet that price. At this point, from what I’m being told, it’s not really a negotiation. The Nationals are saying, ‘Either you express a willingness to meet our price or we just go the next club.'. – Ken Rosenthal	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I don't feel like it's right that people can tell other people what they can and cannot say, if people don't want to support him … if people are offended by some of his transgender jokes, they don't have to support him.

You're not going to cause someone to be suicidal by asking directly about suicide, the worst they're going to say is' no' and not get offended. If they are, still ask them. I'd rather have someone offended at me than dead. – Justin Baker	Found on CNN 1 year ago

I know that some inarticulate things I said earlier this week have offended people. The message conveyed through media sound bites is not at all what I meant, complete answers based on data aimed at solutions to gun violence will be edited down to sound bites. It’s my job to make sure even those sound bites are careful. As someone whose strong support is owed in part to the fact that I don’t communicate or make decisions like a career politician, it is my obligation to do better. – Larry Krasner	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
