Latino activists in Sioux City are gathering signatures to protest Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s upcoming appearance at a local school. Trump is scheduled to rally supporters at Sioux City West High School Tuesday evening after school hours.
A former student at West, Francisco Valadez, launched the petition drive. He calls Trump a “bully” for his attitudes against immigrants and says he doesn’t belong in Iowa schools. But the Sioux City Schools Superintendent Paul Gausman says the district followed school board policy in agreeing to rent West High to the Trump campaign.

So progressive
Just like black “leadership”, the Hispanic “leadership” wants to keep their flock in total dependency to them.
It is all about power, not freedom. They lie by leaving out the significant adjective before “immigration”, “illegal”. More illegals, more dependents.
I wonder if Valadez is even legal?
Sounds like the Schools in Iowa have been teaching politics instead of History of America....and parents are brain washing their children....maybe the ‘corn is affecting’ Iowa....sure starting to look that way....
Trump doesn’t need Iowa, so if they want to go ahead and make clowns out of themselves by thinking they are so important to this election, go ahead...and later, after the elections, IF Trump isn’t in the Oval Office, pat yourselves on the back and tell yourselves how great you are then!!!
Leftists cannot really debate, they have to silence opposing views.
If it wasn’t for corn that state would be useless
Why does the superintendent feel the need to explain his actions to this wetback.
When all the illegals are deported, who will buy Iowa’s corn tortillas?
All I can say is if that’s all there is and Iowa doesn’t get the funds from the government to live off of, then I guess they’ll have to find some other type of work, like Denny’s for 4 hours, then Artic Circle for 2 hours and then McDonalds for 4 hours and hope that they can make it to pay the bills and feed the families...
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink....
The abbreviation for Sioux City airport is SUX.
The so called Hispanic ‘leaders’ are the hate-mongers. I read lots of Hispanics are agreeing with Trump...
Hoover defeats West...thank you for posting that... what about EDUCATION??
Yes, it’s progressive to violate someone’s civil rights. I agree there.
Careful buddy.I’m from there, & my large and conservative Christian family is there.
BTW, Iowa is the #1 pork producing state.
Many places in that state are beautiful reminders of small town America of the past.
Like schools in every other state, schools in Iowa are teaching what the Feds and the NEA tell them to teach. If the hierarchy says, "teach Marxism," they will teach Marxism. If the hierarchy says, "teach Islam," they will teach Islam. Iowa is hardly unique in that respect. Iowa used to have the finest public - or "government," if you will - schools in the US, but that was before Iowa's ruling class at the time (largely what we would now call "moderate Republicans") decided that local control of schools was old-fashioned, and small school districts were fiscally unsustainable. Increasing consolidation and centralization have progressed until Iowa schools are every bit as screwed up as they are in any other state in the US, but not more so.
I doubt if many parents - who aren't already raving moonbats - are doing a great deal of brainwashing their children regarding DT one way or another. Complaining about parental input on a forum where support of parental rights vis-a-vis public schools is taken as a sine qua non is treading on thin ice. Sioux City is one of Iowa's less appealing locales, but I can assure you that more than a few parents in SC are doing their damnedest to try and raise their children to have better critical thinking skills than FedGovEd approves of. I am no defender of Iowa's "booboisie," but an increasing number of them are definitely not happy about illegal immigrants and their activist allies, especially loud-mouthed, militant ones.
As for "corn affecting Iowa," it has ALWAYS affected Iowa. "Corn crony-ism" now happens to be the bailiwick of fewer, but far more powerful and ruthless hands than it did 100 or even 30 years ago. It is what it is. Donald Trump made what I thought was a rather witty remark about Iowans being "under the influence of corn" with regard to Ben Carson's putative upswing in polling, but more jokes about corn - or hogs - would probably be a politically poor investment for an outsider to make. Trump may or may not need Iowa, but he and his supporters need not alienate the Iowans he has already won over.
Personally, I feel that if the arrangement meets the letter of the law, then Sioux City schools should tell Mr. Valadez and any of his backers to "go pound arena." If Donald Trump is denied this venue because of his views on illegal immigration, then perhaps it is time for a lawsuit and for the citizens of the school district to subsequently replace each and every administrator and/or school board member who exposed them to financial liability in order to make a partisan political statement. It might make for an excellent object lesson on the Bill of Rights.
FWIW, I support Donald Trump's ongoing efforts in kicking the DC cabal right between the slats. He's one of two still left standing on my list of acceptable candidates.
Mr. niteowl77
So now I'm wondering if this is a ‘part’ of why the support for Carson...(I understand the super pacs coming together) but he's soft spoken, more liberal than conservative, could very well be some of reason they like him...but he won't beat Hillary, and that's why I'm supporting Trump....
Reminder: Hillary finished THIRD in the 2008 Iowa *Democrat* caucuses. There aren’t many ways to explain that away.
BTW, only about 10% of the Iowa work force is on farms.
