Special guests for State of the Union

Scheduled for tonight. Whitehouse.gov lists guests invited by Trump. Click over for their photographs.

* The daughter and granddaughter and great-granddaughter of a Nevada couple murdered by an illegal immigrant.

* A man sentenced to prison for drug conviction. While in prison he completed 30 bible studies, became a law clerk, taught GED classes and mentored inmates. He is the first prisoner released after the First Step Act.

* A 9-year-old girl who asked for donations instead of holiday presents and later developed a brain tumor but stayed positive to staff and made hospital rounds to cheer patients. She helps other children fight cancer.

* A Special Agent with Trafficking in Persons Unit of Homeland Security who conducted several successful international human trafficking investigations involving transnational organized crime groups.

* Plant Manager of Vicksburg Forest Products lumber facility. He worked 26 years until he was told the facility would close.

[He was thinking, Man, if I knew they were going to be this unsteady I'd have never signed on.]

The plant re-opened by Vicksburg being designated an Opportunity Zone through provision in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the man was rehired.

* A Pittsburgh SWAT team member who would breach the entrance during raids. He suffered several gunshot wounds during the Tree of Life Synagogue anti-Semitic attack.

* A Tree of Life member and holocaust survivor. He was present in Israel for the declaration of the Israeli State in 1948.

* A boy bullied in school for sharing Trump's last name.

* The father of a Navy Seaman killed on U.S.S. Cole.

* A woman serving a life sentence with no chance for parole given clemency who while incarcerated accomplished an "extraordinary rehabilitation."

Remember the Bo knows commercials?

Trump knows marketing.

Maybe he should invite someone who survived an abortion.
