Kurt Schlichter is on fire! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What Is the Democrats' Endgame? Americans are more divided than we have been since the first time the Democrats started and lost a civil war, with every norm being tossed out and every legitimate exercise of lawfully attained power by us normals being shamelessly obstructed. The left rejects the idea that patriotic Americans have any moral right to participate in their own governance, to pursue their own interests, or to assert their own rights. To them, we are nothing but thralls, tax-generating slaves who must feed them, fuel them, fight for them, and obey their commands while meekly accepting their calumny. They are delusional. Things aren’t going to work out that way. But things are going to work out some way, and you have to wonder what their endgame is.

This is accurate. The K-1 is a "hybrid" visa -- a nonimmigrant visa with immigrant intent. This is why the K-1 is handled by the Immigrant Visa Units of the consulates.

Glad to hear that it was resolved. Thanks for returning to report the outcome.

Interesting reactions. How about this? Rezone and apply eminent domain (the sole good use for it) so that the only remaining housing is transitory -- temporary residences for active members of Congress, and hotels. The District would be occupied solely by Federal office buildings and businesses to support the working population (restaurants, gas stations, etc.). Perhaps also return some land on the Maryland side, and reacquire a small portion on the Virginia side of the Potomac. No residents would then need representation, so problem solved. Only elected officials would reside in the District because they have, or are supposed to have, their residences in their home state. Then they would have room to demolish some of our current empty eyesores that we pay billions to maintain. In addition, officials like Brennan AND Obama would lose their residences in DC, and their meddling in government could be minimized. Only ambassadors and Federal officials should live in DC.

Whoever abuses a small child needs to be locked in a room alone with the parents.

Murder hornets?

Go along to get along.

This doctor needs to be reported and removed from his association with the U.S. government.

I spoke with someone who's been quite familiar with similar situations, and the answer is that there's no way out of this. Accordingly, voluntary self-deportation is the least "harmful" of the remaining options.

The definition of sheer insanity was to allow this at all, ever. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ State Department Halts Visas for Gaza Residents After Alarming Influx of Families Coming to U.S. The U.S. Department of State announced Saturday morning that it was stopping a visa program that allowed residents of Gaza to enter the United States for "medical-humanitarian" reasons. This comes after videos of large groups of Gazans—often decked out in "Palestinian" flags and keffiyehs associated with the terror group Hamas—arriving at airports across the nation began popping up on social media in the last few weeks. According to this State Department tweet, the program is being paused while officials review the "process and procedures" that have allowed a stream of injured children from Gaza, often accompanied by several family members, into the country. Whether or not these families have been properly vetted is anyone's guess at this point.

Man... no action since last joke? We need a good Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== BOOM! A tough old Texas rancher once told his grandson that the secret to long life was to sprinkle a little gunpowder on his oatmeal every morning. The grandson did this religiously, and he lived to be 93. When he died, he left 14 children, 28 grandchildren, 35 great-grandchildren, and a 15-foot hole in the wall of the crematorium.

I was going to say that asylum status for Venezuela, Haiti, and others was revoked earlier this year, and that asylees from there are leaving the U.S. Your brother should have an attorney highly experienced in asylum matters and who is familiar with these rather uncharted new waters of revised asylum policies. There's no "bright line" advice that any of us can really give you, unfortunately. --- Thread is moved from the DCF forum to the General Immigration Discussion forum.

What country is your brother from?

Use dashes: --- Dashes are understandable by anyone. Some people have ended up with their official "name" typed as FNU. You can include a note that explains your lack of a surname.

Puts into words what some of us have probably thought but maybe couldn't articulate. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Anti-Gunners Don't Get to Pick What We Consider Tyranny In a world where every Republican president is called "literally Hitler," it's not surprising that many see the actions of President Donald Trump as particularly troubling. He was never going to win their approval, after all, and he's not interested in trying. From deploying the National Guard to help deal with the Los Angeles riots earlier this year to federalizing the law enforcement efforts in the District of Columbia due to violent crime, he's not exactly making moves to mollify their fears. But some are acting like we have some obligation to do something. [...] https://bearingarms.com/tomknighton/2025/08/13/anti-gunners-dont-get-to-pick-what-we-consider-tyranny-n1229579
