    PGA got a reaction from TBoneTX in Former Prime Minister Says Rep. Ilhan Omar's Interests Are the Interests of Somalia   
    It's (D)ifferent though. The MSM will either not address it at all; if it becomes a bigger story that they can't avoid talking about, it will be framed as merely conservative right-wing propaganda. If they attempt to denaturalize her it will be "just further proof of the Trump administration retaliating against its enemies" (this is the story the MSM will want while portraying Omar as a poor, innocent victim, running puffy profiles in the likes of The Atlantic, Vanity Fair, etc.

    PGA got a reaction from mam521 in New licensing requirement creates more hurdles for undocumented workers   
    Honestly, I am so tired of the propaganda. If you've read any of the MSM's headlines for the last year they have pretty much implied that there should be an exception for absolutely every type of illegal immigrant.
     
    So far, I have seen: 
    Father
    Mother
    Grandmother
    Grandfather
    Farm worker
    Cleaners
    Construction worker
    Landscape personnel 
    IT Worker - this one was weird
    Pregnant - strangely can probably apply to both genders in their minds
    Anyone with an illness - from the flu to cancer
     
    I mean I try to be empathetic but seriously, where does this end? Also, the left seems to think that "serious crime" means murder, and murder only.

    PGA got a reaction from mam521 in Chuck Norris, Action Icon and ‘Walker Texas Ranger’ Star, Dies at 86   
    Unfortunately, I woke up the other morning to TMZ on my television and they were talking about Chuck's death. One of the guys was quoting a meme, one of the many:
     
    "Chuck Norris told his wife to calm down....and she did!"
     
    I laughed.

    I can barely believe the garbage that is coming out of these apparent lawyer's mouths.  
     
    “If those individuals are now not going to be able to get the appropriate licenses to provide the services that they do, then those services are not going to be available to the consumer, and so prices are going to go up because there’s less opportunity and there’s more demand,” she said. “I think it’s basic economics that it’s going to impact our community, and it’s not going to be in a positive way.”
     
    Ummm...nothing is going to change as far as availability of services.  It will turn Thai Massage - unauthorized work behind the curtains.  You'll have the same un-driving licensed HVAC dude driving the company van, delivering the same services without a TACL number.  The difference is the state won't see their cut.

    PGA got a reaction from Rhema1 in N-400 August 2025 Filers   
    Important note here; right after my wife's interview I had read several pieces on the annals of the internet that the office actually sometimes calls you - yes, on the telephone, a live human even - to schedule the ceremony. Knowing my wife does not typically answer the phone while at work and ignores calls assuming they are spam, I made her aware that she may get a call. Sure enough, they called to schedule the ceremony - 4 days from the call (only 11 days after the interview) so don't ignore your phones.

    PGA got a reaction from jw1 in Why do you want to become an American citizen?   
    OMG, these are some of the worst answers I could even imagine. First, @MMRF, quit believing everything you see on the news. 
     
    I want to be an American because I desire to have the freedoms set forth in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution that many other countries just don't offer. I want to have the ability to achieve the American dream and the ability to be successful in that endeavor. I want to participate in my civic responsibilities, as an American, to make a better future for myself, my family, and all Americans.

    HOW TO DRIVE IN HOUSTON
     
    1.   Traffic signals:  Green means go.  Yellow means go faster.  Red means 3 more cars.
     
    2.  The morning rush hour is from 5 am to noon.  The evening rush hour is from noon to 8 pm.  Friday's rush hour starts on Thursday morning.
     
    3.  The minimum acceptable speed on I-45 is 80 mph.  On 99 and 69, your speed is expected to at least match the highway number.  If you drive 60 mph, it had better be only in a car wash.
     
    4.  Forget the traffic rules that you learned elsewhere.  Houston has its own version of traffic rules.  For example, Ferraris and Lamborghinis owned by sports stars go first at a 4-way stop.  Cars/trucks with the loudest muffler go second.  The trucks with the biggest tires go third.  The HOV lanes are really designed just for the slow Louisianans passing through who are used to hogging the left lane everywhere.
     
    5.  If you actually stop at a yellow light or stop sign, you will be rear-ended, cussed out, and possibly shot.  Unless there is a police cruiser nearby.
     
    6.  Never honk at anyone.  Ever.  Seriously.  It's another offense that can get you shot.
     
    7.  Road construction is permanent and continuous.  Detour barrels are moved around for your entertainment pleasure during the middle of the night to make the next day's driving a bit more exciting.  Generally, city roads other than the main streets have more potholes and bumps (usually speed bumps) than most dirt roads in the countryside.
     
    8.  Watch carefully for road hazards such as armadillos, drunks, ladders, possums, skunks, dogs, barrels, cones, furniture, cats, mattresses, shredded tires, squirrels, rabbits, crows, and spools rolling down I-10 and I-610 South Loop.
     
    9.  Be aware that spellings of street names may change from block to block.  610 may be South Loop West, East Loop South, etc.
     
    10.  If someone actually has his turn-signal on, wave him to the shoulder immediately to let him know that it has been accidentally activated.
     
    11.  If you are in the left lane and driving only 75 mph in a 65-mph or 55-mph zone, you are considered a road hazard and will be "flipped off" accordingly, and possibly shot.  If you return the flip, you will be shot.
     
    12.  MOST IMPORTANT:  If you get lost, look for I-45 -- then you are somewhere in Houston.

    PGA got a reaction from N400applicantN400 in N400 Questions Clarification Needed (Moral Character, Travel History, Scanned Documents)   
    You have a couple of things you need to meet: 3 years of marriage (for filing under 3 year rule) AND 3 years as a permanent resident (special emphasis on the term resident) with no lengthy and/or overly frequent absences from the United States. That said, you can apply for the N400 90 days before the date on your green card and as @Dashinka mentioned, most people caution against filing on the exact 90 day mark, even suggesting to file several days later, such as day 85.
