Joe Biden Gives an Impromptu Presser, and No One Can Figure Out What He's Talking About During a joint appearance, the American president appeared extremely fatigued, almost unable to keep his eyes open at times. He slowly read his notes, head hung low, sometimes barely audible. Things didn't get any better later when Biden decided to tell an already debunked story about being in Israel during the 1967 war. After returning to the podium to speak again, the president then announced $100 million for Gaza, money that will no doubt end up in the hands of Hamas. Mercifully, this was a short trip, but Biden wasn't quite done. After boarding Air Force One, he decided to give an impromptu presser. Things did not go well.

Fair enough. Other views?

Nikki Haley and Why the U.S. Can’t Ship Anti-Semitic Palestinians Here GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley displayed a shamefully superficial understanding of Israel-hating Palestinians in Gaza while seemingly endorsing a proposal to ship up to a million Palestinians to America. She has since backtracked — but since others are urging that we bring Gazans here, it's important to know why the U.S. should not bring ANY Gazans to America.

Someone will be along to answer specifically... I wanted to pop in to congratulate you on your first post in nearly 14 years on VisaJourney. Glad to have you contribute!

This happens a lot. Even when the medical is performed before the interview, the results might not be available until afterward. The consulates throw a temporary 221g on visa-issuance pending the medical results. Not a big deal. For your own peace of mind, have your wife ask the consul whether everything else is OK, and approximately how long visa-issuance will take after the medical results are received.
