I agree, you should get a new stamp. Good Luck!

Here are some reviews although none terribly recent. Which land border are you planning to use as your POE? You may be able to search the specific crossing in the VJ search engine. Good Luck! https://www.visajourney.com/reviews/poereviews.php?poe=CDN-USA Border&page=2&dfilter=0

It is amazing how the Left/Democrats and their media allies redefine words and often succeed with their gaslighting.

Going to put this one on Old Corrupt Joe and the Democrats as they are increasing the funding to this organization so they can go after regular folks. IRS Can Enter ‘Anyone’s House at Any Time’: Abuse Detailed in New Weaponization Report The Ohio woman’s experience is one of several examples of IRS abuse included in the House panel’s report. “After the taxpayer called the police, the revenue officer even filed a complaint against the police department,” the report says. “The IRS later confirmed that the taxpayer owed nothing and acknowledged the situation ‘never should have gotten this far.’” Under Democrat control, Congress voted in August 2022 to boost IRS funding by $80 billion over 10 years. The funding increase prompted congressional Republicans to demand more oversight of the agency. “This shocking abuse of power is a startling indication that the IRS believes it may do what it wants, when it wants,” the report says. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, also is chairman of the weaponization subcommittee. https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/10/27/irs-can-enter-anyones-house-at-any-time-abuse-detailed-in-new-weaponization-report/

Looking at the graph showing the exponential increase in the interest payments under Old Corrupt Petulant Joe, it really shows where we are heading, and slow, steady and corrupt are getting us there. U.S. payments on debt spike to $659 billion, nearly doubling in two years The U.S. government spent $659 billion this year paying off the interest on its debt, according to a Treasury report released Friday, as the nation’s widening fiscal imbalance and the Federal Reserve’s rate hikes dramatically raised the federal cost of borrowing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/10/20/interest-debt-payment-treasury/

Good to hear it is moving forward for you. It is nice sometimes when the US government actually helps its citizens when necessary. Good Luck!

I don't think anyone can predict how either your fiancé or her and your children will acclimate to their new environments. It is tough for all involved, and the only thing you can do is try and make it as easy as possible. If you think living separately temporarily is the best way to do it, so be it. I am not sure I agree, but it is your life and relationship. If you do choose this path, just be cautious as this could lead to hard questions, or other issues (as @Ontarkie mentioned, if your fiancé and her children arrive and are asked what address will they be staying, and it is not yours, there is a potential CBP could turn them around). Good Luck!

You start timing from the date you were documentary qualified. I am not sure if Ankara is backed up or not, but I am not sure there is much you can do unless you have a basis to request an expedite. Good Luck!

And yet they are attached to the “venerable” ABC News.

Identity politics at its best.

Might depend on how long ago the usage admission was. I have seen stories where the initial medical showing no use, and another one a year later worked for someone that admitted to using several years earlier. That being said, frequent check results might go a long way in the end.

Makes some good points. Do We Really Know That Human Greenhouse Gas Emissions Cause Significant Climate Change? October 24, 2023/ We start with the basic maxim that “correlation does not prove causation.” Instead, causation is established by disproof of all relevant alternative (“null”) hypotheses. Everybody knows how this works from drug testing. We can’t prove that drug A cures disease X by administering drug A a thousand times and observing that disease X almost always goes away. Disease X might have gone away for other reasons, or on its own. Even if we administer drug A a million times, and disease X almost always goes away, we have only proved correlation, not causation. To prove causation, we must disprove the null hypothesis by testing drug A against a placebo. The placebo represents the null hypothesis that something else (call it “natural factors”) is curing disease X. When drug A is significantly more effective at curing disease X than the placebo, then we have disproved the null hypothesis, and established, at least provisionally, the effectiveness of drug A. And yet somehow these principles don’t apply in the field of climate science. Instead, all the inside clique of the climate science community have decided to agree that the new way to prove causation is to show really, really good correlation with the preferred hypothesis, in which case subjecting the proposition at issue to a test of invalidation against a null hypothesis can be dispensed with. The climate science community calls its system for establishing causation “detection and attribution” studies. The basic idea is to come up with a model (i.e., a hypothesis) that predicts global warming based on increased greenhouse gases, and then collect data that show a very close match between what the model predicted and the data. Correlation with the model predictions is the claimed proof of causation. There are hundreds of such studies in the climate literature. My January 2, 2021 post linked to a classic of the genre, a 2018 IPCC-sponsored article written by a collection of some 36 co-authors who constitute a virtual “who’s who” of the insiders of the climate science cult (e.g., Michael Mann, Phil Jones, Tom Wigley, Ben Santer, etc., etc., etc.). The title is “Detection of Climate Change and Attribution of Causes.” Key quote: There is a wide range of evidence of qualitative consistencies between observed climate changes and model responses to anthropogenic forcing, including global warming, increasing land-ocean temperature contrast, diminishing Arctic sea-ice extent, glacial retreat and increases in precip- itation in Northern Hemisphere high latitudes. https://www.manhattancontrarian.com/blog/2023-10-24-do-we-really-know-that-human-greenhouse-gas-emissions-cause-significant-climate-change

Is anyone a little surprised by the amount of anti-semitism by the "progressive Left". I know Leftist are prone to throw the H moniker and N label on anyone they disagree with politically or ideologically, but this really shows how fascist and racist the Left really is. Sad really. Reaping the Whirlwind It grows ever clearer that the hunt for “microaggressions” and the impulse to expunge America’s historical figures might not be simply the products of refined sensitivity or some naive excess of care. Instead, the yearning for extraordinary measures to confront “injustice” can speak to darker impulses—to dominate, to humiliate, and to hurt. The true cost of these tactics has become more explicit. In cities across the world, activists rip down pictures of people, including children, taken hostage by Hamas. Such actions send clear message of animosity: the sufferings of Jewish hostages should be erased. No monuments for the wrong people has become a chic sentiment in elite American spaces. Now that logic is being chillingly applied to those slain, maimed, and abducted by Hamas. Activists have used the totem of “settler colonialism” to try to delegitimize the founding of the United States, and that same rhetorical figure has been put into service to dismiss Israeli—and Jewish—life. A Cornell professor called the Hamas attacks “exhilarating.” A late-night Manhattan march of masked protesters proclaimed, “there is only one solution—intifada revolution” (a phrase eerily reminiscent of Hitler’s “final solution”). On American college campuses, activists project on the side of buildings slogans like “glory to our martyrs” and “free Palestine from the river to the sea” (calling for the elimination of Israel). Others hold signs asking to “keep the world clean” that show the Star of David in a trash can. https://www.city-journal.org/article/anti-semitism-at-the-cooper-union

He will need to fill out the DS160 and schedule an interview appointment at the consulate in the UK. https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/tourism-visitor/ Good Luck!

Seems to be a satirical story, but in the end there are Queers for Hamas out there. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/equality-not-elitism/israel-war-the-fundamental-incoherence-of-queers-for-palestine

I like Mr. Mills research and analysis. The EV labor myth was enlightening. https://www.city-journal.org/article/the-ev-jobs-myth

Hmm, reality starting to set in. That chasm between the early adopters and early majority can be massive.

Similar for Russia relative to changing names on things like passports (Russia has a national ID knowns as Domestic Passport, and a travel passport). My wife has chosen to keep all her Russian documents in her maiden name and she has had no issues.

Yes, the I130 and I130A. Please see the post above from @pushbrk that links the step-by-step guide. Good Luck!

Another version "Let's talk about your sister, I mean wife", and the computer started smoking...

Well, Minnesota did win Floyd of Rosedale this year. Good game, but I was rooting for Iowa.

Hmm, maybe some of these medical professionals should be held accountable. I do wonder what will become of the suit against the AAP. Detransitioner sues American Academy of Pediatrics for medical malpractice in historic lawsuit Ayala alleges the AAP published and disseminated a fraudulent 2018 “policy statement” that has been perceived by many as an authoritative guide by medical professionals for endorsing the “affirmative model” for gender dysphoria. The lawsuit that was filed on Monday claims that the policy lacked sufficient evidence and used misleading and fraudulent citations to support its conclusions and recommendations. She claims the policy should not have been used as a guide for treatment of gender-confused children across the country. Some of the doctors listed in her lawsuit include Dr. Jason Rafferty, who authored the 2018 AAP policy statement and has been one of the biggest advocates of gender-affirming hormones, and Dr. Michelle Forcier, who recommended Ayala testosterone injections after only one meeting. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/detransitioner-sues-american-academy-of-pediatrics-for-medical-malpractice-in-historic-lawsuit/ar-AA1iQo62

So this person not only identified as a female, but also a young teenager?
