Tony Bobulinski Was THIS Close to Making AOC's Head Explode at House's Biden Corruption Hearing Today former Hunter Biden business associate Tony Bobulinski is testifying at a House hearing looking into all the corruption allegations about the president and his family, and if the power of Democrats running interference for Biden could be harnessed the nation's energy problems would be solved for centuries. Earlier we told you about Dem Rep. Jamie Raskin getting triggered after Bobulinski said he and Rep. Dan Goldman are liars (Tony certainly wasn't lying under oath with that comment). Next up was Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who asked Bobulinski to list the crimes he alleged Biden has committed, and then didn't want to hear the answers.

Absolutely unbelievable, and unconscionable. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TikToker Tells Illegal Immigrants How They Can 'Invade' Vacant Homes and Take Them Over There was a disturbing story Tuesday about a woman who had changed the locks to kick squatters out of a home that she'd inherited. The disturbing story isn't that squatters took over her house … the disturbing part is that she was arrested for unlawful eviction of a tenant by changing the locks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Biden Judicial Nominee Not a Gun Expert, Can't Define 'Assault Weapon' [...] President Joe Biden's nominee for Seventh Circuit Judge Nancy Maldonado has said she'd be for an assault weapons ban, but when asked by Sen. John Kennedy what an assault weapon is, she took Dettelbach's route, saying, "I'm not a gun expert." Biden keeps calling for a ban on assault weapons, but none of the people under him can seem to define what an assault weapon is.

Faster, Higher, ... Hotter? Paris Olympics Denies Athletes Air Conditioning Due to 'Climate Change' Great news, world-class athletes. The Paris Olympics has added a new event for this summer's games. Heat stroke. Yes, in an effort to further bend the knee to whiny teenager Greta Thunberg, the Paris Olympics declared that no athletes will have access to air-conditioning in an effort to make this year's games the 'most sustainable Olympics ever.' Quick reminder: The Paris Olympics will take place from July 26 - August 11. Second reminder: Last summer, when all of Europe was hit by a heat wave, more than 5,000 people died from the heat in France when temperatures often exceeded 100 degrees.

Welcome to the forum! Your thread has been moved to be among similar topics. Many compliments on your consummate literacy. It's a pleasure to read your writing.

*** Thread is moved from General Immigration Discussion to the "Bringing Family Members of USCs" forum. ***

Moving agencies would at least put Federal court cases into fairer, more-balanced venues. Republicans would probably have more fighting chances in Great Bend, Kansas than in D.C. Furthermore, accountability might improve (e.g., put the Dept. of the Interior in Wyoming, nearer the center of action). Let the "anointed" elected/appointed crowd be more accountable, and let the employed bureaucrats be real people from real places. Moving agencies would also be a way to pare down the bloated size of government. I'd love to see Scarborough et al. try to interact with folks in Flyover territory.

These clowns blame the victim. Always.

I've asked someone very knowledgeable to contribute to your thread, and I hope that it happens.

So the CO returned the passport with the blue slip, but the blue slip said to mail in the passport? This seems inefficient. "About a week" is a rather short time to hear anything, depending on Immigrant Visa Unit workload and whether they operate on a "first-in, first-out" basis (older stuff at the top of their stack, newer at bottom). Maybe into the third week of waiting, inquire. If you get nowhere, let us know here.

It's Wednesday, and time for our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: ======================================== MALE CHAUVINIST PIG RIDDLES How many men does it take to open a beer? None. It should be opened by the time she brings it. ---------------------------------------- Why is a Laundromat a really bad place to pick up a woman? Because a woman who can't even afford a washing machine will probably never be able to support you. ---------------------------------------- Why do women have smaller feet than men? It's one of those "evolutionary things" that allows them to stand closer to the kitchen sink. ---------------------------------------- How do you know when a woman is about to say something smart? When she starts her sentence with "A man once told me..." ---------------------------------------- How do you fix a woman's watch? You don't. There's a clock on the oven. ---------------------------------------- If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling at the front door, whom do you let in first? The dog, of course. He'll shut up once you let him in. ---------------------------------------- What's worse than a Male Chauvinist Pig?

This is correct -- the process is 100% opaque to the COs. Complicating matters is that one security clearance can expire while another is still being investigated, necessitating a repeat of the first one.

WATCH: General McKenzie Testifies Biden State Department Policy Failures Led to Bombing at Abbey Gate The House Foreign Affairs Committee held a hearing Tuesday to assess the Biden administration's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021, questioning retired Gen. Frank McKenzie, the former CENTCOM Commander, and Gen. Mark Milley, retired Chair of the Joint Chiefs. McKenzie just decimated Biden and the State Department in his opening statement, saying the disastrous withdrawal and the horrible bombing at the Abbey Gate were due to policy decisions, not the fault of the military on the ground.

Defamation: Trump Sues ABC News and George Stephanopoulos Some people are more litigious than others. Donald Trump is a litigious person. That fact is well-known. ABC News and George Stephanopoulos are being sued by Trump and it is delicious. Stephanopoulos is the host of ABC's This Week on Sunday mornings. A couple of weeks ago, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) was a guest on the show. Mace endorsed Trump in the 2024 general election. Stephanopoulos tried to shame Mace for the endorsement, given that she's a rape victim.
