Interesting analysis. The Russian invasion was a rational act These claims all rest on common understandings of rationality that are intuitively plausible but ultimately flawed. Contrary to what many people think, we cannot equate rationality with success and non-rationality with failure. Rationality is not about outcomes. Rational actors often fail to achieve their goals, not because of foolish thinking but because of factors they can neither anticipate nor control. There is also a powerful tendency to equate rationality with morality since both qualities are thought to be features of enlightened thinking. But this too is a mistake. Rational policies can violate widely accepted standards of conduct and may even be murderously unjust. So what is “rationality” in international politics? Surprisingly, the scholarly literature does not provide a good definition. For us, rationality is all about making sense of the world — that is, figuring out how it works and why — in order to decide how to achieve certain goals. It has both an individual and a collective dimension. Rational policymakers are theory-driven; they are ** theoreticus. They have credible theories — logical explanations based on realistic assumptions and supported by substantial evidence — about the workings of the international system, and they employ these to understand their situation and determine how best to navigate it. Rational states aggregate the views of key policymakers through a deliberative process, one marked by robust and uninhibited debate. https://unherd.com/2023/09/the-russian-invasion-was-a-rational-act/

It might take some time for USCIS to respond to a written request to withdraw your I90. I would not worry too much about it at this point.

The OP should save the CBP link in case they need to educate any airline employees. Unfortunately, the CBP Carrier Guide is still circa 2019 and has not been updated yet.

This is what I found. Good Luck! Withdrawing the I-90 When you submit an I-90 application, you will receive a receipt number from the USCIS that begins with either LIN or MSC. If you wish to later withdraw the application (if, for example, you find the card or have it returned), you must send a written request to either the Nebraska Service Center (for LIN receipts) or the National Benefits Center in Lee's Summit, Missouri (for MSC receipts). The USCIS does not refund application fees. https://legalbeagle.com/12326650-withdraw-i90-application.html

This ^^^^^. Since the I90 is an online service, as @little immigrant stated, you can print out the letter as proof. CBP may give you a hard time if it is not the original watermarked version, but they should let you in. USCIS Extends Green Card Validity Extension to 24 Months for Green Card Renewals If your permanent resident card or conditional permanent resident card has expired and you have already applied to renew it or remove conditions, you may show your expired card along with your receipt notice as evidence of continued status. USCIS has revised language on receipt notices for Form I-90, Form I-751, and Form I-829 that extend the validity of a permanent resident card for 24 months. https://www.cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens

Public caning.

One wonders the Yelp rating on the open air bar.

Hmm, interesting how some are taking advantage of the situation. I wonder if they rent out the prostitution tent by the minute or the hour? Denver homeless camp has decked-out open-air BAR that also rents out tents for prostitution https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12522933/Denver-homeless-camp-bar-rent-prostitution.html

Keep voting “regressive”… AOC, other Dems drowned out by screaming protesters at NYC migrant crisis news conference Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and other Democrats were loudly heckled Friday at a press conference in New York City regarding the migrant crisis there. The Democrats, who spoke outside the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan, which has become a relief center for asylum seekers, were drowned out by shouting protesters chanting, "Send them back!" and "Close the border!" "Close the border! Close the border! Respect the constitution, AOC! I am your constituent!," a man was heard among the angry crowd, shouting into a megaphone. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/aoc-other-democrats-drowned-out-screaming-protesters-nyc-migrant-crisis-news-conference

Hmm. Really have not been following this too much, but it seems to be a house of cards. Impeachment Case Against Paxton Implodes As Witnesses Admit No Misdeeds https://thefederalist.com/2023/09/14/impeachment-case-against-paxton-implodes-as-witnesses-admit-no-misdeeds/

Unfortunately, you appear to be in the 20% of Boston N400 cases that take more than 9 months to process. Personally I would wait a bit longer before thinking of taking any action such as a writ of mandamus. Good Luck!

Which field office?

I think it also allows these two to potentially file an appeal if found guilty even before the others are brought to trial.

I think the OP reached her limit of posts yesterday. I expect she will be back on later today.

Certainly in DC in a Biden WH.

One wonders if she herself was the one that brought this out so she can play the sexism, victim card. Too bad she is straight, and white.

I heard about this story, and figure this guy will be broke again very soon. What amazes me is why he is staying in CA. I would have left the minute I heard I won. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/winner-of-24-billion-powerball-lottery-purchases-third-home-for-47-million/ar-AA1gG7Hn

What is so funny is how the Democrat/Left love to re-define words. In reality, those that label themselves "progressive" today or really regressive in their ideology.

In an ethical world, she would have resigned for her un-ethical behavior, or been fired instead of creating spin to try and justify her lack of ethics. She is not some sort of superstar that needs to be protected.

Is anyone actually seriously discussing Kaepernick anymore?

If you want to go there, look at the history of the presidency in the ROK. Many of the past presidents in that country have ended up in jail mostly due to corruption. In the US, we celebrate political corruption and create a two tier justice system so the important people or the people of a certain political ideology are taken care of. I know, slow, steady, corrupt and petulant.

Interesting study. I wonder if it also applies to Old Corrupt Joe. PENTAGON-FUNDED STUDY WARNS DEMENTIA AMONG U.S. OFFICIALS POSES NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT Yet, as the authors of the RAND report note, there does not appear to be any vetting for age-related cognitive decline. In fact, the director of national intelligence’s directive on continuous evaluation contains no mention of age or cognitive decline. While the study doesn’t mention any U.S. officials by name, its timing comes amid a simmering debate about gerontocracy: rule by the elderly. Following McConnell’s first freezing episode, in July, Google searches for the term “gerontocracy” spiked. “The president called to check on me,” McConnell said when asked about the first episode. “I told him I got sandbagged,” he quipped, referring to President Joe Biden’s trip-and-fall incident during a June graduation ceremony at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado, which sparked conservative criticisms about the 80-year-old’s own functioning. https://theintercept.com/2023/09/12/national-security-dementia-mcconnell-feinstein/

Also, when the daughter's case reaches NVC wait until the wife's case gets there before proceeding with the DS260's.

Great to hear, and thanks for coming back and letting us know how it went.
