This is no laughing matter, mam ma'am! Insouciant mam ma'am! Insouciant, INSOUCIANT mam ma'am! More power to you, si mam ma'am.

Congratulations on your marriage! There's no formal timeframe per se, but most people choose to file for AOS/EAD/AP the instant they get the marriage certificate (and, as a tip, order multiple copies of those). The inability to work or to return after traveling internationally weighs heavily on K-1 entrants.

If the instructions say, as they do, "Do not mail a form that you have already submitted online," then this issue has been resolved.

Chickens. Home. Roost. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ More EU Election Fallout—Belgium's Prime Minister Abruptly Resigns We reported earlier how French President Emmanuel Macron announced he was dissolving the National Assembly and calling for snap elections after his party got shellacked in European Parliament balloting.

Pursuant to Pooky's point above: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CONFIRMED: 'Journalist' Killed by IDF Held 3 Israeli Hostages in His Home, Wrote for US-Based Nonprofit In the wake of the Israel Defense Forces' successful operation to rescue four hostages from captivity in Gaza we're learning more about the conditions in which the hostages lived and who housed them, and once again we're seeing that the native "journalists" covering the conflict are anything but neutral observers. As we noted in numerous stories about Israel's rescue mission, the four hostages rescued were not held in tunnels or prisons; they were held in the homes of alleged civilians in residential areas in Nuseirat. I say "alleged civilians" because if these people were holding Israeli hostages for eight months they're absolutely part of Hamas and are combatants, not civilians. One of those alleged civilians, it's now confirmed, was Abdullah Al Jamal, who bills himself as a journalist and who most recently wrote for a United States-based 501(c)(3) NGO, The Palestine Chronicle. He also wrote at least one piece for Al Jazeera. The Israeli government confirmed Sunday that Al Jamal, who was neutralized by IDF rescuers, held three hostages captive in his family home: [...] https://redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2024/06/09/confirmed-journalist-in-gaza-who-wrote-for-us-based-ngo-housed-three-israeli-hostages-in-his-home-n2175247

Biden Claims He Doesn't Have Enough Planes to Deport Illegals Before leaving for his rather embarrassing appearance in Normandy, President Joe Biden signed his long-awaited executive order "cracking down" on illegal immigration at the southern border. So what has changed since that happened? Even the Associated Press was forced to admit yesterday that the answer is pretty much nothing. They brought us the story of Gerardo Hanao, an illegal migrant from Colombia. He crossed the border into California on Thursday and was taken into custody by the Border Patrol. So far, so good, right? But instead of being shipped back to Colombia, he was dropped off at a bus stop in San Diego. From there, he took a train to the airport and boarded a flight to Newark. Mr. Hanao reportedly doesn't even have a notice to appear in immigration court. It would seem that he is here to stay. Why couldn't he be deported? According to the Biden administration, there were no flights available to send him back to his home country.

Poo is deadlier.

I objectively think that you're OK now. However, if you want to mail it in, write "As filed online on [date]" to avoid potential confusion.

Oboy oboy -- Sunday! Time for our always-hilarious Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: ====================================================== NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS THAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY KEEP Read less. I want to gain weight. Put on at least 30 pounds. I will start buying lottery tickets at a luckier store. Stop exercising -- waste of time. Watch more TV. I've been missing some good stuff. Watch less TV on the small screen and buy a bigger one. Gain enough weight to get on The Biggest Loser. Watch more movie remakes. Procrastinate more. I will do less laundry and use more deodorant. I will become a vegan for a day and learn that it was a missed steak. Drink. Drink some more. Stop buying worthless junk on Ebay, because QVC has better specials. Start being superstitious. Spend more time at work. Stop bringing lunch from home: I should eat out more. Take up a new habit -- maybe smoking!

North Dakota Sounds Off on the Crisis at the Northern Border North Dakota officials voiced their opinions before members of the House Judiciary Committee late last month, claiming the northern border can not withstand the border crisis that's already wrought chaos on America's southwest border with Mexico. According to Fox News, North Dakota communities that sit along the U.S.-Canada border have noticed an increase in crime, drugs, and homelessness due to the rise of illegal alien crossings. That is why four North Dakota officials stood before House lawmakers on Wednesday to describe the crisis at the border in hopes that they could help fix the problem "orchestrated" by the Biden administration.
