Pentagon Orders Discharge of Transgenders The Department of Defense has issued new guidance ordering the military services to begin the process of discharging transgender members of the Armed Forces in 30 days. The new policy recognizes only two sexes; it requires members of the Armed Forces to adhere to the physical fitness and grooming standards of their biological sex. Any attempt at chemically or surgically changing sex makes the person unsuitable for military service. If a person had, at some point, been transgender they can be retained if they [...] https://redstate.com/streiff/2025/02/27/pentagon-orders-discharge-of-transgenders-n2186073

Pro-Hamas University Students Are About to Get Their Comeuppance Thanks to Trump DOJ [...] According to a report from Israel's Channel 12 News on Wednesday, a DOJ task force is looking into the pro-Hamas demonstrations that took place on college campuses after the October 7 attack on Israel by Hamas, which saw the murder of 1,200 innocents, as well as kidnappings and rapes. This task force is being led by Leo Terrell, who told Channel 12 that those who actively attempted to restrain Jewish people from attending class on campus or attempted to intimidate them will be seeing jail time, according to Jewish News Syndicate: [...] https://redstate.com/brandon_morse/2025/02/27/pro-hamas-university-students-are-about-to-get-their-comeuppance-thanks-to-trump-doj-n2186084

Pro-Palestinian Protesters Storm the Dean's Office at Barnard College After Two Students Expelled Last month, on the first day of classes for the new term, several pro-Palestinian protesters entered a classroom where the "History of Modern Israel" was being taught. They handed out flyers showing a boot crushing the Star of David and made it impossible for the instructor to continue. Two of the students who disrupted the class were expelled. This brought a reaction from some pro-Palestinian activists who stormed the dean's office and proceeded to have a "sit-in."

Very sad. ~~~~~~~~~ Gene Hackman and Wife's Deaths Now Being Investigated as 'Suspicious' Legendary actor and two-time Oscar winner Gene Hackman and his wife, classical pianist Betsy Arakawa, were found dead Wednesday afternoon at their home in the Santa Fe Summit community northeast of Santa Fe, New Mexico. Santa Fe County Sheriff Adan Mendoza confirmed shortly after midnight Thursday that the couple had passed away along with their dog. While Mendoza did not disclose a cause of death or specify when they might have died, he stated in an interview that there were no immediate signs of foul play. Immediate speculation centered around the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning, but a new report indicates that authorities are investigating their deaths as "suspicious."

Thrilling Thursday report, see man: Quiet day in terms of chicas, nothing to report man. We had to arise at o'dark-Many to take Mini-B. to Band sectional, man. Tried to siesta after returning casa-ward but couldn't, overcaffeinated we man. Breakfast (!!?) was egg bites from Costco + a croissant, ingest we man. Stopped Many (2+2+1) places on various errands, errand we man. 1. Nothing at Dollar-+=Half-of-Half-a-Dollar Tree for Mama T-B., man. 2. Nothing marked down further at Party City's closedown, man. Many. Returned Mama T-B.'s Amazon shoes at UPS Store, successful man. Many. Restocked Powerade Zero (grape) at supermarket, successful man. Many. Returned Mama T-B.'s Walmart shoes, man. We hate ###### Walmart, hate Walmart we man! Many (2+2+2+1) customers in Customer Disservice line, what does one expect man. Many (2+2) computer terminals available to serve said customers, OK in theory man. One -- si man, ONE -- slothful employee to service customers, we man. We shall outright refuse Mama T-B.'s future requests for Walmart purchases, vow we man. Returned to casa without time for a siesta, man. Wouldn't have happened anyway, call from Uncle T-B. and text from ex-Mrs.-T-B. he and she man man. Ex-Mrs.-T-B. wanted to confirm that we would de-skool Mini-B., helicopter-mommy ex-she man man. "Call (and pay your overdue ransom to) the malos, si man," replied an off-urinated we man man. Din-din was the remaining Many (2x2x2x2 -1) chicken-&-cheese taquitos from Costco, ingest Two Guys man. The beverage, as usual, was r'br, drink Two Guys man. We have itineraried Many (2+1) or Many (2+2) ESs for Friday, itinerary we man. There might be one additional ES, address not yet published man.

Without a crisis happening now or a first shot of fear, it doesn't sound as though this husband will care any more now than he has for 13 years.

Correct, and these can be edited or deleted. One of the saddest happened when I was very new on VJ. Charles will remember this event. The message from the widower is on page 13 of the thread. Throughout the thread are notes from people who in some cases haven't been on VJ for nearly 17 years.

Either the husband must be convinced to file, or she's in a precarious position. He must decide whether he dreads filing more than he dreads losing his wife to deportation. Just because "it hasn't happened in 13 years" is an unhealthy rationale.

Thanks. But again, how is pre-planning disproved, and what happens if the petitioner & beneficiary are later found to have lied? Even if an AOS interview is mandatory for people who wish to adjust from a NIV, I'm not seeing how the holes can be plugged.

Additional point: She should avoid airports, the 50-mile territory between the U.S.-Mexico and U.S.-Canada borders, and anywhere else CBP or ICE agents are expected to be. To emphasize, she should file the I-485 as life's most urgent priority.

Here's the state's template for statutory PoA, see mam ma'am: https://www.hhs.texas.gov/regulations/forms/advance-directives/statutory-durable-power-attorney-sdpoa Medical is probably similarly located, make yourself useful and find it mam ma'am.

They grow up so fast, si and sigh mam ma'am. Congrats on being the parent of a non-minor*, si mam ma'am. *depending on the definition of Many, si man Get medical (advance directive) and durable Powers of Attorney drafted for her to sign, highly appropriate at this point mam ma'am. An actual Will can probably wait, get quick answer on this from PoA lawyer mam ma'am. Edited to add, addendum we man: Reliable PoA templates for Texas are probably available, si mam ma'am. We will search for the link, si mam ma'am. We will also travel any distance to notarize Kid1's signatures for (gasp, choke, aack) free, si mam ma'am.

Welcome to the forum! Yes, she is out of status and has been subject to deportation for many years. She should file for AOS immediately and carry copies of the most recent papers with her at all times: copy of her cover-letter for the I-485 package, then the receipt letter from USCIS for that package, and every successive receipt letter. She should file for work authorization at the same time. It is probably not a good idea to file for Advance Parole (travel permission). Others here may have additional advice.

You've said this, si man and si man. And yet more P-Math errors, see and si and man. Several Walmart employees around us are openly racist, egad man. We don't know how they get away with it, no man.

It's supposed to happen as soon as they redact info about the victims.

Sorry, not understanding; please explain. Unsure how one would prove a negative. It seems to me that the elephant always present in the room is the "change of mind at baggage claim" and no way to get around that. Do you have a solution in mind?

Pam Bondi Just Revealed New Information About the Epstein List Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed last week that the Trump administration is moving forward with the release of Jeffrey Epstein's client list, following a directive from President Donald Trump. Speaking at CPAC with conservative commentator Benny Johnson, Bondi stated that she had been briefed on the matter and vowed that Trump's directive would be followed. "I was briefed on that yesterday. I can't talk about that publicly, but President Trump has given a very strong directive, and that's going to be followed," she said, emphasizing the volume of documents involved. When pressed on whether action would be taken, Bondi dismissed any skepticism. "Donald Trump doesn't make empty promises," she stated.

Thrilling Wednesday report, see man: Bantering with chicas up to time to run Mama T-B.'s errands, big mistake man. "Breakfast" was 2 croissants, ingest we man. Walmarted for Mama T-B., because we HATE that store man. Managed to find almost everything, amazing man. Mama T-B. ordered us to find 2 pairs of shoes, never-ending traumatic saga man. The store had only one of the two desired sizes, we knew this would be trouble man. Managed to warsh the filthy T-B.-mobile, warsh place on way out of Walmart man. As we off-toweled our windows, Mama T-B. called, man. She went aysheep for Many -- si man, Many -- minutes about a $2 discrepancy on her lunch ticket, man.

Mini-B. agreed to an early din-din, surprising man. Din-din was weenies & beans, ingest Two Guys man. Movie night was What Women Want, quite good and watch Two Guys man. Many (2+2+1) bowls of Costco popcorn were consumed, ingest Two Guys man. This makes Many (2x2x2 +1) for the week, one short of acceptable quota man. Thursday plans as stated, q.v. man. No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort we man. And that was/is our thrilling Wednesday, report we man.
