  1. Interesting take, I think I heard pretty much the same thing here. Yes, Britain today is governed by idiots, but that is not the sole reason it is in trouble Four score years, roughly four generations: Is that the natural life span of any democratic welfare state? Certainly, the ailing condition of the United Kingdom, now just two years away from marking the 80th birthday of its National Health Service, suggests as much. In addition to being the over-lauded moral heart of the UK, the NHS is the UK’s largest employer. The usual response to demands for an end to unlimited immigration to Britain runs: But without immigrants, how will the NHS survive? The future of the NHS, rather than that of the people it was invented to serve, is now the defining issue of British politics. However, the actual issue has been the NHS’s multigenerational removal of the interlinked values of social cohesion and of personal responsibility. For example: In Scotland in 2023, 2,555 youngsters, aged 16-18, were paid £643,381 for minding family members who themselves were entitled to benefits. What was once a familial duty is now a transaction between the state and groups of relatives, with the government funding everybody, including the various medics supervising the treatment, the civil servants authorising it, and other civil servants compiling the statistics. That’s weird enough, but not as weird as the extrapolated outcome. Some 24 million people in the UK, or 34 per cent of the population, live on benefits, nearly ten million of whom are of working age. These numbers do not include the uncountable numbers of NHS employees and civil servants who administer or assess and report on the various schemes. So, why work? Good question, when as “of right” such services are “free” as an expression of “equality”. These meaningless terms – equality, free and natural right – have become a deadly curse on British society, especially when joined by those other ghouls at the UK’s deathbed, namely transgenderism, multiculturalism, diversityism, equityism, inclusivism, environmentalism, and God help us, even BLMism, each with its own version of the blood-sucking leeches of medieval quackery. https://brusselssignal.eu/2026/05/yes-britain-today-is-governed-by-idiots-but-that-is-not-the-sole-reason-it-is-in-trouble/
  2. The globalist at it again. ESG scores are a real joke and a true grift created by the WEF types. I really like milk, grew up on it, drink at least a glass daily and had dairy processors in my family. It is really sad to see what these grifters will do under the guise of the mythical notion of "Net Zero". By Targeting Dairy Farmers, ESG Wants to Decide Your Milk What begins as “guidance” quickly becomes obligation. For dairy farmers, especially the ones that make up the lifeblood of the American Heartland, that obligation carries a heavy cost. P2DNZ effectively embeds climate compliance into the financial and commercial conduits of the industry. It deeply impacts how farmers access credit, who processes their milk, who buys their milk, and under what conditions they can continue operating. The burden doesn’t fall on distant institutions or multinational coalitions. It falls squarely on the people milking cows before sunrise, managing tight margins, and trying to pass their family farms on to the next generation. And for what measurable gain? Even under the most aggressive assumptions, eliminating all emissions from U.S. dairy production would have no detectable impact on global climate trends. That’s not a political statement; it’s a matter of scale. Yet the economic consequences are anything but theoretical. Farmers face rising compliance costs. Consumers face higher prices at the grocery store. And the industry itself faces increasing consolidation, as smaller producers struggle to keep up with mandates they had zero role in shaping. This is the uncomfortable truth at the heart of P2DNZ: it is less about environmental outcomes and more about control. It’s about shifting decision-making power away from independent producers and toward a network of globalist financial and corporate actors. https://www.realclearmarkets.com/articles/2026/05/15/by_targeting_dairy_farmers_esg_wants_to_decide_your_milk_1182853.html
  3. Seen these pop up in my county as well, and it is interesting I see them marked on Waze (marked as mobile speed cameras as Waze does not have a license plate reader option). As to me, the jury is still out, but the debate is out there regarding their use. Like almost all technology, there is a certain invasion of privacy, but how much privacy do I expect driving on public roads. Honestly there are bigger invasion of privacy issues that need to be taken care of like all the monitoring of international communications, intrusive CCTV, etc. I really don't see how a snapshot of a license plate really tells anyone anything other than you were on that road at a specific time, but who knows. Btw, you car, assuming it is relatively new, is already tracking you.
  4. The types of folks that think voting Democrat absolves them from being stupid. As an aside, do we really need AI generated images?

  5. Thanks for clarifying. As to your OP question, what you are submitting should be enough. Good Luck!
  6. Is this for a K1 visa? I assumed so, but I got confused when you mentioned a copy daughter's passport?
  7. What color was the 221g form? This does matter. Good Luck! https://www.path2usa.com/blog/all-about-221g/
  8. One wonders if some rich benefactors in Qatar bankrolled his/her campaign.
  9. No bad ideas? If that was the case, then every idea thought up while brainstorming would be adopted. No, there are definitely bad ideas.
  10. This is spot on. I always thought this racial gerrymandering was a requirement, but it does seem plain that by doing this it violates the 14th Amendment. In the meantime the rhetoric of the radical left/Democrats drones on about their plans to "fix" things so they stay in power and for some reason I am told those on the right are the ones to be wary of. Beyond that, this is the a key conclusion. "Citizens should be treated as individuals, not sorted into political categories based primarily on race."
  11. Socialism does not work. The extreme left used to tout Sweden as a socialist paradise. Hmm, look what is happening now. https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6395442085112
  12. I thought it was all the endocrine-disrupting chemicals in the drinking water?
  13. I agree with the others, that I would explore the DIY for N400, but that is entirely up to you. And yes, get a copy of your documents from the lawyer, and if you absolutely want a lawyer, shop around a little. Good Luck!
  14. I remember when my wife applied at a passport agency there was no requirement for her to show her foreign birth certificate. Now that was back in 2018, so I did a little searching and could not find anywhere that said a copy of the birth certificate is required. The only place I saw the need of a foreign BC is if you derived citizenship through your parents. This should not apply since you have your own Nat. Cert. Maybe the postal clerk was confused. If you were born outside the United States and got U.S. citizenship through the naturalization of your parent(s), submit: Your foreign birth certificate listing your parent(s) Evidence of your parent’s U.S. citizenship such as a U.S. birth certificate, Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA), or naturalization certificate Evidence of your permanent residence status. Examples include: Permanent Resident Card/Green Card Foreign passport with the original I-551 visa entry stamp https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/citizenship-evidence.html
  15. That is the subtle difference. If you are already in the US you can consider the AOS option, but you cannot have intent to do it when entering the US. I realize that sounds knit picky, but it is a clear distinction, and even if one is planning to enter with the intent to AOS and actually gets in, it may still come out if USCIS checks things like social media, etc. And yes VJ is a social media platform. Good Luck!
  16. All you can do is provide the evidence you have. If your spouse has a job in a remote location, make sure you document any visits you share during that period. You can also look at being added to his cell phone plan, or car insurance, etc. Good Luck!
  17. Should be just fine as plans change all the time. If asked about it, just tell the truth about your plans changing. Good Luck!
  18. So now the Democrats in Virginia need to make major changes in order to cheat? Babylon Bee has way too much competition from the Democrats themselves. Democrats Reportedly Float Plan To Boot Entire Virginia Supreme Court After Losing Redistricting Case Democrats were reportedly considering lowering the retirement age for state Supreme Court justices following the court’s decision to strike down a redistricting voter referendum, The New York Times reported Sunday. The idea, which was broached during a Saturday call with Democratic lawmakers, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, would reduce the retirement age of Virginia Supreme Court justices from 75 to 54, forcing all current justices off the bench and appointing justices who would vote in favor of the gerrymandering plan. The plan comes after the Virginia Supreme Court ruled against the new maps in a 4-3 decision Friday. The maneuver would rely on Democrats who control both chambers of the state Legislature in Richmond, lowering the mandatory retirement age, then filling newly created vacancies with justices who could potentially rehear the redistricting case and rule in their favor. https://ijr.com/democrats-reportedly-float-plan-to-boot-entire-virginia-supreme-court-after-losing-redistricting-case/
