This Could Be Huge: Trump Appoints New Federal Fraud Czar If you've been following along, you've seen a lot of reporting of rampant fraud in our country, ranging from welfare fraud to Medicare fraud to... well, you name it. We've seen some shocking numbers, and we've seen some pretty unrepentant Democrats willing to just let it all go away. Minnesota seems to be ground zero for possibly billions in fraud, and a lot of that money has gone overseas, to Somalia and other places. [...] President Trump has decided to do something about it. On Wednesday, he took to his Truth Social platform to announce a new appointment and a new division at the Department of Justice.

Nurse Who Called for Paralyzing and Poisoning ICE Agents Sent Packing As our own Just Mindy recently reported, Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo revoked the license of a nurse who had taken to social media to spread her wish that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt would suffer lifelong injuries in childbirth. What's up with all of the nurses lately posting threats? As we reported, another health care worker had posted a video encouraging people to inject ICE agents with succinylcholine, which would induce paralysis, and then spray poison on them. She also floated the idea of dating ICE agents to drug their food. Her employer, VCU Health, has let her go.

Anti-Ice Activists Surround Restaurant After Mistaking TSA Officers for Federal Agents The pro-illegal alien crowd is going to get someone hurt with their Signal network of license plate readers and rapid responders. As we reported a few days ago, pro-illegal rioters spray-painted the windows they didn't manage to break at a hotel in the Twin Cities because they thought ICE agents were sleeping inside. A lone Border Patrol agent with a rifle stood in the doorway and asked, "Where is the local PD?" We reported a couple of weeks ago that a mob accosted five Twin Cities software developers who were leaving a restaurant because they'd been mistaken for off-duty ICE agents. We're certain there are a lot more similar cases of "mostly peaceful" mobs descending on hotels and restaurants. Matthew Seedorff of FOX 11 in Los Angeles tried to speak to the organizer of a mob that surrounded a restaurant in Lynwood, but she wouldn't talk to Fox News. We're not sure what she'd say, anyway, because the federal agents inside the restaurant were TSA officers.

Notice how, after that earlier video of Pretti came out, the media have fallen silent on the issue?

Joe Rogan: The Idea That This Is An Organic Protest In Minneapolis Is Provable Nonsense [...] JOE ROGAN, HOST: I'm glad you're a gun guy, because I wanted to bring up this whole thing with this guy, Pretti. And I haven't talked about it. We haven't done a podcast since that guy got killed. But that whole thing, there's a lot of people that don't understand what's going on, and why riots only in Minneapolis, and why riots in the place where there's an ungodly amount of fraud that has been discovered. ANDREW WILSON, THE CRUCIBLE: Coincidentally, right around the same time. ROGAN: Exactly. Like, instantaneously afterwards, the narrative completely changes. Everybody forgets about the fraud. Now, all anybody cares about is ICE, and fascists, and Nazis. And you know what a color revolution is? WILSON: Of course. ROGAN: And for people that don't, it's a coordinated effort to cause chaos. And this is a very coordinated thing. The idea that this is an organic protest, that these riots are organic, is nonsense. It's [...] https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2026/01/28/joe_rogan_the_idea_that_this_is_an_organic_protest_in_minneapolis_is_provable_nonsense.html

Uploading anything at all is something that those of my era lacked the luxury of. Follow what JeanneAdil and Dashinka say to do. When you order the passport book, ask for the style with extra pages. It's no extra cost and may be handy.

Great! Be sure to post a full report.

Welcome to the forum! Wonderful -- congratulations! I concur with everyone above. Online status is far better than in past years, but it can still lag or never show current status at all. Not to worry.

How wonderful -- congratulations! And now you're kicking yourselves for not ordering the most expensive things on the menu, plus second helpings.

Yes, and promising.

Very hopeful progress! Keep the faith.

Just feeling sorry for inferior primates.

Four jokes in a row... a record! It's still Wednesday in some places, so here's our Semiofficial Semiweekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== THE SMART BABY A visitor in the hospital was walking through the newborns' room. He looked at one baby and smiled, then said, "Hi, I'm George. What's your name?" The baby said, "Alex." The man looked at him in shock, and asked, "When were you born?" "Three days ago, at 6:20 pm," said the baby. The man asked, "Who are your parents?" The baby replied, "My mom is Laura Princeton; she is a programmer, in room number 6. Dad Thomas Princeton, an engineer, should come visiting in three hours." "Amazing! said the man. "How do you know all of this already?" "Well, I wasn't born yesterday, you know."

NBC Nightly News reported on 1/28/26 that Pretti's family confirmed that this was him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Video Filmed 11 Days Before Shooting Appears To Show Alex Pretti Fighting With Federal Agents This video from The News Movement shows a man who appears to be Alex Pretti interacting with federal immigration agents 11 days before Border Patrol shot and killed him.

That it does, in spades, si ma'am. Been there, done that, si and sigh ma'am. Violent physical exercise helps, si ma'am.

A spammer's post has been removed, along with a post quoting it.

Time heals all wounds, and time wounds all heels. This too shall pass. Hugs to you.

Thread is shifted from the US Citizenship main forum to the Case Progress subforum.

It's always a thrill to read success stories... and, for you, it's surely satisfying to fill in that final block in your VJ timeline.

I'd interpret it literally. Waiting is hard, but be as patient as possible and distract yourself when it's toughest. Violent physical exercise helps.
