  1. Democrats Suffer Humiliating Defeat in First Court Battle to Keep Trump off the Ballot Democrats were hoping that the effort to disqualify former President Donald Trump from the ballot using Section 3 of the 14th Amendment would start with a bang. Instead, it began with an insipid whisper, thanks to a federal judge in Florida.

  7. Oliver Anthony and the woke hatred for the working class The thing I love most about Oliver Anthony, aside from that apocalyptic timbre in his country singing, is that he's forced the elite to unmask itself. We live under elites-in-denial. 'We’re not the establishment!', cry the movers and shakers of the upper middle-classes, even as they force [...] https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/09/02/oliver-anthony-and-the-woke-hatred-for-the-working-class/

  13. Sometimes you can, but typically they're in a foul humor and looking to nail someone. Nah -- just be polite and ask for the supervisor if needed, and you should be fine.

  20. To be fair, probably less than 3% of the general U.S. public knows the slightest thing about legal immigration. If we feel like it and they seem receptive, we can pleasantly educate them. If we don't and they aren't, just smile and keep walking.
  21. In addition to Mike E's good advice, pleasantly insist that the CBP agent notate "IR-1" during endorsement. If that agent resists, pleasantly insist on consulting the shift supervisor, with the reasoning that this is too important to be left up to USCIS to notice on its own.
  22. By the way, after AOS application but before approval, the formal status of the immigrant is "applicant for adjustment" or, more concisely, "adjustment applicant."
