  3. Calmly ask them to name even one illegal Uruguayo.
  4. Congratulations! What a relief for you. Glad to hear that you were able to straighten things out. Thanks for returning with your update.
  5. To my knowledge, the appointee must be of the same political party as the vacating member was. This was a rather recent rule-change in Kentucky.
  6. Scintillating Wednesday repartee, yawn man. ----- Thrilling Wednesday report, see man: Weekly rainwater newspaper had all the fast-food coupons, update our collection man.

  7. As ongoing proof of lawful presence, yes. Keep a copy of the NOA1 (I-797) for the AOS package handy. If asked status, the accurate reply is "applicant for adjustment" or "adjustment applicant." I had Mrs. T-B. carry around the most recent documentation for whatever stage she was in. For the 90 days, it was her visa in her Ecu passport. Then, the NOA1 for AOS. Then, the Advance Parole document. Then, the first green card. Then, the NOA1 for ROC. Then, the next green card. She was relieved to get her U.S. passport, after all that.
  8. That poor dude got hosed even worse than the rest of us. He was even hotter about it over the phone... AT&T had to replace all their vulcanized wiring.

Biden Comforts Hurricane Victims By Talking About Time The Urinal Splashed Back At Him A Little [...] "I've been in the same situation, folks," Biden said as he made remarks to the media regarding ongoing disaster relief efforts in Hawaii and Florida.

  10. Biden's Deterioration Is Concerning During Photo-Op With Costa Rican Leader [...] It was bad on Tuesday. While he didn't have to do much, just deliver remarks from the White House for one event and meet with Costa Rican President Rodrigo Chaves, it didn't go well.

  12. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why Trump is winning the GOP primary — handily It's the economy, stupid. And open borders. Plus, what seems to be a never-ending war in Ukraine, even as Americans suffer at home. In last week's Republican presidential debate, few of those on stage offered solutions to what poll after poll shows are the primary issues worrying the average voter. What they did prescribe was a repeat of the policies former President Trump enacted during his four years occupying the White House.

  13. As new BA.2.86 COVID variant emerges, America lifts middle finger to the same old mandates [...] the COVID-19 endemic will be much different than the pandemic.

  14. This is another excellent analysis, with rationales. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Georgia on Our Mind Georgia's Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis's indictment of Donald Trump and 18 other defendants for knowingly and willfully conspiring to unlawfully change the outcome of the Georgia election, Jack Smith's similar federal indictment of Trump for lobbying Congress and the vice president to delay certification of 2020 election results, the Biden Administration's whole-of-government censorship enterprise (see here and here), the Department of Justice's targeting of pro-life demonstrators, and widespread ostracism and termination of academics, executives, other professionals, parents, and people of faith who refuse to tow [sic] the progressive line are all part of an intensifying effort by progressives to deprive Americans of their bedrock free speech rights.

  16. No kidding, D ma'am!
  17. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy will write a really nasty letter!
  18. Actually, the best (and most accurate) "embassy review" of all time is in here: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=46019
  19. Mrs. T-B. found the one box dedicated solely to the [censored] Guayaquil consulate, and said, "I didn't realize that you had to go through all that." The chief of the IV Unit there is now retired from the Foreign Service and is writing anti-immigrant pieces for a think-tank. I have this mind-movie of plastering the contents of that box all over him with use of SuperGlue, then soaking him in honey and staking him in a field full of fire-ants. I would then stand there and mildly observe (aloud), "See what just a taste of what you put us all through is like?" I would surely be joined by at least half a dozen other petitioners of my era. See the first 8 pages or so of: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/110313-us-consulate-in-guayaquil-ecuador/ And then (a must-read): http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/180306-guayaquil-consulate-administrative-process/
