Costa Rica elected a chica president, and this chica author writes phenomenal stuff about Latin America that we won't read anywhere else. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Costa Rica Voted in a New President, and Something Kind of Wild Happened As I mentioned in my New Monroe Doctrine Column on Friday, Costa Rica was set to go to the polls on Sunday and vote in a new president. It was highly likely that Laura Fernández, the conservative, would win, though it wasn't clear that she would get enough votes to avoid a run-off because there were so many candidates — something like 20 — and because there were many, many undecided voters heading into the weekend. Well, Fernández won, so no real surprises there, but how she won is incredibly interesting and yet another sign of the times in the Western Hemisphere.

Multiple instances of hypocrisy are pointed out here. I like the author's use of "cringing weasels." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Masked Leftists Assault Reporter for Filming Anti-ICE Roadblock A group of masked leftist protesters in insurrection-plagued Minneapolis not only set up a blockade to interfere illegally in ICE operations, some of the protesters also assaulted a Daily Caller reporter filming their actions. The layers of hypocrisy in the incident below are intense. First of all, you have people who object to lawful borders setting up unlawful borders. Secondly, we see people who love to justify their violence by claiming they are filming federal operations then violently assaulting someone who was simply filming their activities.

I think that the illegal Ecu should be released on the exact date of the judge's order. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Judge Ordered Illegal Alien Criminal Released on a Date That Doesn't Exist The woke judge who ordered the Trump administration to release the illegal alien father who abandoned his kid to escape justice dated his outrageous order for a calendar day that does not and has never existed in reality.

The Abigail Spanberger Bait-and-Switch During the 2025 gubernatorial election the voters of Virginia believed they were choosing between pragmatic Democrat Rep. Abigail Spanberger and lackluster Republican Lieutenant Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears. The former was well funded and portrayed favorably by the corporate "news" media as a centrist, while the latter struggled to raise money and was labeled an extremist because of her strong support of gun rights. In the end, Spanberger won by double digits, and most Virginians thought they were getting a slightly more liberal governor than her predecessor, Glenn Youngkin. Yet the moment she took office, it became obvious that Gov. Spanberger was no moderate. Immediately upon assuming office, [...] https://spectator.org/the-abigail-spanberger-bait-and-switch/

Thrilling Monday report, see man: We awoke to the alarm and wished we could've over-zzz'd it, need-zzz we man. Had to arise for the casa-repainters, dutiful we man. Miu was on the active side but certainly not as aysheep as Sunday, non-aysheep miu man. Painters started on time as usual, Many (2x2x2 +1) a.m. man. They finished the body & trim of the entire casa by Many (2+2+1) p.m., amazed we man. We paid project manager and were sorry in a way that this relationship has ended, highly positive man. We must leave Google review, view and review we man. We now are windowed and have a nicely sided/painted casa, satisfied we man. Our neighbor tells us that we paid what HE paid Many (2x2x2) years ago, F$WM. We sent paid invoice to HOA management co. for ultimate reimbursement, close book on this story man. "Fotos or it didn't happen, see or no man," see or no man man. We can't post fotos here any longer, overcapacitized long ago we man. However, for those interested, the colors are as follows, Sherwin-Williams man: -- Body, see man: SW Many1Many2, Coastal Plain man -- Trim, see man: SW ManyManyMany0, Courtyard man The neighbors will be, uh, green with envy, hee hee hee man. Breakfast/lunch was 2 ham-&-cheese sandwiches, ingest we man. A siesta was taken, semi-successful zzz we man. Mini-B. showed up, per skoolbus issue discussed above, q.v. man. He thoroughly inspected the casa paint, inspect wee man man. After contemplation, he ultimately concluded that he approves, big relief man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. lobbied for white, boring ex-she man man. However, she too will probably approve, predict we man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. busy entrepreneuring on other side of town, aysheep ex-she man man. We therefore chauffeured Mini-B. back to her casa, only instance of our leaving the casa man. Din-din was TG, ingest we man. Mama T-B. called Many (2+1) times, call senior she man we man man. We put Mini-B. on the line with her and she forgot all about yelling at us, one good use for a Manyager man. The painters left us almost onecan of trim paint and a giant vat of body paint, leftovers man. We opportuned the chance to off-clean our long-ignored paint shelf in the garage, what's even there man. We found some weird stuff, when the dickens was THIS ever used, and for what man. We kept onecan of furniture-stain and toucans of white flat enamel, keep we man. All others were curbsided in the garbage bin, curbside we man. We hope that they'll dump out without coming open, otherwise paint inside of garbage bin man. They're old enough that we suspect glued-on lids, looked solid to us man. We also trashed a giant bag of "guaranteed" grass seed that never worked once, man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. Must visit Mama T-B. on Tuesday, should've done so today man. She still knows zero about our casa renovations, no clue man. If we told her how much we paid, she'd get her wish and die of a heart attack, pinch-pennying senior she man man. We shall now apply ourself to Mama T-B.'s taxes, self-apply we man. And that was/is our thrilling Monday, report we man.

Wasn't the place shut down, huh man? Nothing like advertising "Here I am, see man -- come deport me, si man!", no man.

Woo-hoo!

Congratulations! This is typically the easiest portion of the process, by a mile. As you've done throughout the process, read carefully, interpret literally, and react completely. Take what they say. This appears to be a universal policy-change. Relax -- your time will come.

Within the hour, we wrote to the Executive DiRectum of Transpurtayshuh, response pending man.

We are off-urinated, we man. Last week, skoolbus stoopervisor sent e-mail to say that Mini-B. is eligible to ride only the skoolbus to our casa, not to ex-Mrs.-T-B.'s casa man. This is because our address is the one in skool records, only one record permitted man. We wrote to acknowledge "eligibility" and to request authorization to ride either skoolbus, write we man. Stoopervisor wrote curtly to repeat what he'd said, man. We wrote back to re-request authorization, no response man. Mini-B.'s skool ID is scanned before entry to skoolbuses, scan they man. He will be denied entry to any other skoolbus, man. Stoopervisor is rather dismissive, conclude we man. This can't be the ONLY instance of split custody, no man. We are quandaried as to next step, advice please man.

Cute gato, si mam ma'am!

Good luck. Keep us apprised.

Awful.

, mam ma'am. This would render us subservient to a chica, mam ma'am. Fotos or it didn't happen, see or no mam ma'am. Sounds like Canadia is a Many'rd-world country, huh mam ma'am? They are either flexibly stoic or utter wimps, verily wot man. Unless it's 2, 1, 0, -1, or -2 F., it is Many-degree weather, si and see and mam ma'am.

Perfect time to stand outside Walmart in time for opening, man. Whoops -- LPoP and unread, no see we or anyone man. If we were to read this, we would recommend a luxurious, American-made Pre-Owned Toilet Seat*, si man. *available just for you at a handsome 0.0000001% discount off full retail, man We like him sight-unseen, F$WM.

Be sure to report back!

Congratulations, and all the best!

Welcome to the forum! Your post is moved from the K-1 Process forum to the Embassy/Consulate forum, because the topic involves that phase. Folks will be along to answer. Good luck!

We see JMany ma'am lurking, see man. Bad absent JMany ma'am! Bad, BAD absent ABSENT JMany ma'am!

Thread is shifted from the K-1 Process forum to the K-1 Case Progress subforum.

Welcome to the forum.

Leftists sought violence in Minneapolis, and they got it So far today, I have managed not to get shot by agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Yesterday, too. And all the days before that. Want to know my secret? I don't harass or physically interfere with federal law enforcement officers while they're carrying out their duties. And I certainly don't do any of that while also introducing a deadly weapon to the mix. Radical leftists in Minneapolis could take a lesson from that as they aggressively tangle with federal agents attempting to enforce immigration law, but that would mean they wouldn't get what they're after.

Surprise, Sgt. Carter! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peaceful ICE Arrest Of 650 Aliens In West Virginia Proves Dems Are Manufacturing Chaos In Minnesota [...] "When state and local law enforcement work with ICE, immigration enforcement is seamless — it all takes place behind closed doors between law enforcement professionals, and that's why the public never hears about it," ICE Director Todd M. Lyons told The Federalist. "On the other hand, when law enforcement agencies refuse to turn over public safety threats, it forces ICE to arrest criminal illegal aliens in public. These arrests are going to happen regardless, so for state and local police, it makes more sense to keep the public safe and conserve resources by working with us instead of against us." ICE utilized 287(g) partnerships, which allow the federal agency to delegate immigration enforcement to state and local authorities, under ICE supervision and training. That allows local police to identify and help remove illegals. "The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office has just completed a two-week operation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement," Jefferson County Sheriff Tom Hansen said in the press release. "The Sheriff's Office was impressed with the professionalism and work ethic of the agents and how well they interacted with the citizens and local law enforcement officers."

Saint Hillary Is Here To Tell You You're A Terrible Christian Hillary speaks, but she doesn't listen.

Scintillating Sunday repartee, yawn man. ----- Thrilling Sunday report, see man: Awoke before alarm, we man. Did not leave the casa all day, man. Breakfast for Mini-B. was tubowls of cereal, ingest wee man. Lunch for us was onecan of beef stew, ingest we man. Attempted siesta mostly failed, doze slightly we man. Miu absolutely ultra-aysheep all day, hyperactive miu man. A highlight was a protracted battle to the death between miu and a feather-roller, victorious miu man. We have never seen miu so aysheep for so extended a period, view miu newly we man. We conquered Many (2+1) LLs but have enough for another, unbalanced we man. We shall do it on Monday, conclude we man. Din-din was mini-'zas from Costco + r'br, ingest Two Guys man. Mini-B. consumed 2 'roni mini-'zas, ingest wee man. We consumed 2 Many-cheese ([2+2]-cheese) mini-'zas, ingest we man. We agreed that this was a good and good Two Guys din-din, agree Two Guys man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. arrived to remove Mini-B., end of Two Guys week man. Naturally, miu was a comatose loaf during this brief interval, man. We have just spent 2 hours trying to discover which of Mama T-B.'s CDs expires this month, Sherlock Holmes we man. We conclude that either we were mistaken or that Mama T-B. handled it before she went down, confused we man. We did find that CD rates beyond terms of Many (2+1) or Many (2+2) months completely suck now, man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. No particular plans for Monday, no plan we man man. We will probably see Mama T-B., do the needful we man. We should visit Costco or Costco Business Center, latter almost proximal to Mama T-B. man. We should also continue work on Mama T-B.'s taxes, dreary drudgery man. We are obviously such a party-animal, got no self-control and don't want any we man. And that was/is our thrilling Sunday, report we man.
