I wonder if the IRS will make it good. Maybe a loss of job, and ending the contract with the company that employed him.

Hmm, so he was attempting to disrupt an official congressional function? Where have I heard that before? Members of Congress, Media Perplexed and Outraged Over Rep. Bowman Pulling Fire Alarm Before House CR Vote After Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) pulled a fire alarm to delay a vote on legislation designed to avoid a government shutdown, members of the media and Congress expressed outrage as well as some light-hearted comedy. Bowman pulled a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building on Saturday and shortly after was questioned by Capitol Police. Bowman said via his spokesperson that he “did not realize he would trigger a building alarm as he was rushing to make an urgent vote, adding that he “regrets any confusion.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/members-of-congress-media-perplexed-and-outraged-over-rep-bowman-pulling-fire-alarm-before-house-cr-vote/ar-AA1hvnNC

The perplexing thing is the Republicans also do not call it what it really is. The Democrat Party is blatantly racist, of course they added some lipstick to that pig by calling it identity politics, but it is what it is.

I would go look at the Russian/Ukraine/Belarus regional forum as there is a lot of current information dealing with this issue. You can also report this thread using the three dots in the upper right to request a moderator to move this thread there. Good Luck! https://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/98-russia-ukraine-and-belarus/

That's too bad as the spousal visa is far superior, but it is what it is. I would include a few across the entire time frame you have been in an LDR. Don't worry too much about social media posts. There are a lot of folks that do not use that much. As to photos, I would focus more on 6-12 or so of the time you were physically together. I am not sure I would go with love letters, you can add some of that in the letter each of you need to submit describing the relationship and the intention to get married with a K1. Sure, putting them chronologically makes sense. I would put newest to oldest, but the order is not that important. Good Luck!

Horrific moment store clerk in crime-ridden Bay Area is set on FIRE with stolen lighter fluid by serial shoplifter, leaving him suffering from second and third-degree burns https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12582767/Store-clerk-Bay-Area-FIRE-lighter-fluid-shoplifter.html

Yes, what is the basis for them to seek the English requirement exemption? You are exempt from the English language requirement, but are still required to take the civics test if you are: Age 50 or older at the time of filing for naturalization and have lived as a permanent resident (Green Card holder) in the United States for 20 years (commonly referred to as the “50/20” exception). OR Age 55 or older at the time of filing for naturalization and have lived as a permanent resident in the United States for 15 years (commonly referred to as the “55/15” exception). Note: Even if you qualify for the “50/20” or “55/15” English language exceptions listed above, you must still take the civics test. You will be permitted to take the civics test in your native language. If you take the test in your native language, you must bring an interpreter with you to your interview. Your interpreter must be fluent in both English and your native language. If you are age 65 or older and have been a permanent resident for at least 20 years at the time of filing for naturalization, you will be given special consideration regarding the civics requirement.

Reparations. This is why I vote anti-incumbent for all federal offices other than President (already term limited).

This is certainly true. We've never met an environmentalist who wasn't also a raging socialist.

I am neither a Democrat or Republican. Don’t get to choose in the primaries. And the last time I wasted my vote on a 3rd Party was Perot. Now, I just vote anti-incumbent for all federal offices, and anti-Leftist for President.

But I would vote for him way before Old Corrupt Petulant Joe, or any other Leftist Democrat.

Democrat

Loved the parody Death of Stalin. Btw, I do remember those days, and I expect that flu to hit the WH soon.

Interesting, I found this story. Kamala would certainly qualify. California Gov. Newsom will pick Feinstein’s replacement. He pledged in past to choose a Black woman https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/nation/2023/09/29/california-gov-newsom-will-pick-feinsteins-replacement-he-pledged-in-past-to-choose-a-black-woman/71003904007/

The Dems are hoping they can accomplish this through the DOJ.

I still don't see that happening. The Obama's may want to remain in the wings, but I don't really think they are interested in being back out front.

So let's add to this conspiracy. We see the Dems do what the theory states, but Old Corrupt Joe resigns soon after (in his current term) and let's Newsom run in 2024, and he can potentially serve 2 plus terms. As the other way, Old Joe would have to last through January 2027.

Ha ha ha. Btw, given the governments foray into combatting what they deem as mis-information, not really sure you will be able to speak freely unless of course it is promote the position of the government.

You can replace "MAGA" with "government" and you get the same thing. When there is overwhelming evidence of different justice systems depending on the the power of the person involved, or some other Leftist defined demographic, it does not take much to see the bureaucracy is taken over. It does not take much to see that the DC cancer is spreading down the ranks at agencies like the DOJ, FBI, EPA, etc. You put a lot of faith in government making it right when you have been through various systems like USCIS, or the SSA. Look at the story in the other thread where a lady is still having troubles after more than 10 years because some nameless bureaucrat decided to declare her dead in the SSA system. Interesting, the government so far has not made it right. Yes, we can have change, whether it is progress or not is debatable, but one thing that needs to change is accountability of the federal bureaucracy. Members of the bureaucrat class should face personal lawsuits when they disrupt someone's life, they should face loss of employment and pension when they decide things based on politics. Do your job in a non-partisan fashion, apply the laws and rules equally, and you should be fine. I do agree, the government should not be our enemy, but it certainly can become the enemy, and we are certainly seeing this occur now. I personally detest Donald Trump, but I can see the government agencies need disruption.

I suspect Adam Schiff is already on the phone with Newsom.

Dianne Feinstein dead: Longtime California senator was 90 https://www.foxnews.com/politics/california-senator-dianne-feinstein-dead-90

Sure, you are probably right when considering how much power these government entities have, and how much that power is abused. Keep rooting for government, eventually they will come for you.

Yes, but it goes to show the type of folks employed by the DOJ. You say these agencies will make it right, with folks like these doing the “work” of the government, I really doubt it. Regardless, where is the world coming to where a former DOJ prosecutor decides he needs to get stabby over a minor fender bender.

Typical Leftist logic, if it doesn’t work, let’s try it again and expect different results. Hmm, there is a name for that type of logic. Btw, I wonder if they factored in the extra wear and tear the EV buses would do to their roads.

Sounds like it, at least at the university level. I also found it interesting that these “researchers” seemed so miffed they would be challenged when figuring out ways to spread their own propaganda.
