Hmm, interesting. Covid vaccines’ immunity from lawsuits jeopardized by unreported contaminants Kirsch wrote that “the SV40 promoter is found in all the vials and it was in the gene sequence that was provided to the regulators. There is no mistake. The problem was that neither drug company ever pointed it out to the regulators. It’s an unapproved contaminant that doesn’t meet the standards set. So the regulators are off the hook. But if the regulators don’t take action, then they dig themselves into a very deep hole.” The FDA, Kirsch said, “is now at a crossroads. Either they admit that they knew about the plasma contamination, and failed to disclose that to the public and to the outside committees, or they can claim that they didn’t know about it in which case Pfizer is liable. But we have the Pfizer documents that were given to the FDA so we know what the FDA got. And I seriously doubt there’s any disclosure of SV40 contamination. That means we have an adulterated vaccine and the FDA has to remove it from the market until the adulteration is fixed. If the FDA doesn’t do that, they should face criminal prosecution for endangering the public, and not following the law.” Kirsch continued: “If people in government were interested in science and your health, they would have been hammering the CDC and the FDA asking why this was never investigated when it was first discovered. https://www.worldtribune.com/covid-vaccines-immunity-from-lawsuits-jeopardized-by-unreported-contaminants/

But the employees must take it, particularly any white one's.

Assuming he is listed on the BC, I believe that is all you need for the I130. Good Luck!

Sorry to hear about your mother. I also echo the "get on a plane as soon as possible" and either fly directly to the US, or fly into Canada and cross by land. You have not been out of the US for more than a year on this trip, and if CBP questions all your past travels, you have a valid reason, and now that your mother has passed away, you do not expect to maintain this travel pattern. Good Luck!

Sounds like the GC and the SSC should be heading her way based on how you answered the questions and paid the processing fee. The issue is the time period it will take to arrive. She can go down to the SSA and apply for a SSN, my cousins did this when they came on DVs back in 2019, or she can simply wait for the SSN. Nothing you can do right now relative to the physical GC except wait and if it doesn't arrive in 10-11 months, she can request an ADIT stamp to maintain her LPR proof. Based on what I have noticed (purely anecdotal), the physical GCs seem to be arriving faster for those immigrating on IVs. Good Luck!

Doesn't sound like she ever actually applied for a visa. If the question asks have you ever been petitioned before, that is a little murkier as it seems she was a derivative for a period of time based on the I130 petition for her parents. Regardless, unless there was another visa she applied for, it does not appear the parents F4 petition impact her. I would answer no the question, and if the CO queries it, she can explain that she aged out of the F4 derivative category. Good Luck!

Not likely. The two year in-person meeting has a very high waiver bar. Good Luck!

The Who’s Who of neocons and DC insiders.

I doubt the father’s past legal issues play a role at all, but consulates are to assume immigration intent for all B2 applicants. All you can do is apply and show your ties to you home country. Good Luck!

Not really sure how much worse leftist progress will get.

If they can actually curtail federal spending maybe it will be worth it, but I doubt it.

The GOP in DC is clearly in a major state of disarray.

The NOA from your AOS submission is proof you are in a period of "Authorized Stay". As to working, you should be fine with your EAD card and SSN. Good Luck!

I respectfully disagree. Although not common, there is a scenario when the intending immigrant could fill out an I864a. Who May Be Considered a Household Member for Purposes of Form I-864A? For purposes of this contract, one or more of the following individuals may sign the Form I-864A as a household member if at least 18 years of age: 1. The intending immigrant, if the sponsor seeks to rely on an intending immigrant’s continuing income to establish the sponsor’s ability to support the intending immigrant’s spouse or children; https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-864ainstr.pdf

You would only fill out an I864a if your income was going to continue after moving to the US. I agree, plan on getting your joint sponsor set up. As to your wife's I864, she should put down the AGI she claims when filing her US taxes. I assume that is zero or close to zero since her current income is foreign based. Good Luck!

Hmm, always good to see a DHS official with potential terrorist ties. Slow, steady, corrupt…. DHS worker and former Palestinian Liberation spokeswoman Nejwa Ali is put on leave after praising Hamas terrorist attacks and saying 'F*** Israel...we are ready for your downfall' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12647395/DHS-Nejwa-Ali-citizenship-leave-praising-hamas-israel-war.html

Bidenomics!

So to me this is much more general than just the Hamas terror attacks into Israel (if mods feel otherwise, feel free to put this in the Israel thread). It is certainly true, people usually show their true colors. A great example is the racist attitudes of Old Corrupt Joe which shine through all the time. When People Tell You Who They Are, Believe Them On the one hand I think: surely this will be sufficient. Surely this amount of blood will be enough to shake the world awake. Surely no one can equivocate or justify this. As my friend Sarah Haider wrote, “How easy is it to simply condemn targeted violence against civilians? Can there be a lower bar?” And yet, across the world, people have sunk below it. Here you can watch people gathered at the Sydney Opera House cheering “gas the Jews” and “death to the Jews.” People are rejoicing in the slaughter on the streets of Berlin and London and Toronto and New York.

Gridlock in DC is a good thing. House votes to remove Kevin McCarthy as speaker in historic first Lawmakers have voted to oust Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., from his leadership role, the first time in the history of the House of Representatives that the chamber voted to boot a member from the top job. Eight Republicans voted with every present Democrat to vacate the speaker's chair. The final vote was 216 to 210 in favor of McCarthy's ouster. Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., introduced a measure against McCarthy known as a motion to vacate on Monday night, accusing him of breaking promises he made to win the speaker's gavel in January. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/house-votes-to-proceed-with-potential-mccarthy-ouster

What I do not understand is the three Leftist justices voted in favor of religious rights on the postal worker case released yesterday, but voted against this one released today. Supreme Court rules in favor of Colorado graphic designer who refused to create same-sex wedding websites The U.S. Supreme Court held that a Colorado graphic designer who wants to make wedding websites does not have to create them for same-sex marriages, in a landmark decision that pit the interests of LGBTQ non-discrimination against First Amendment freedom. In a 6-3 decision issued Friday, the high court ruled in favor of artist Lorie Smith, who sued the state over its anti-discrimination law that prohibited businesses providing sales or other accommodations to the public from denying service based on a customer's sexual orientation. Justice Neil Gorsuch authored the majority opinion, which said that, "In this case, Colorado seeks to force an individual to speak in ways that align with its views but defy her conscience about a matter of major significance." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/supreme-court-rules-in-favor-of-colorado-graphic-designer-who-refused-to-create-same-sex-wedding-websites/ar-AA1dg4M7

This AI will most likely be used for the next election. It will get interesting. AI clones teen girl’s voice in $1M kidnapping scam: ‘I’ve got your daughter’ It was a dead “ringer” for her daughter. Artificial intelligence has taken phone scams to a frightening new level. An Arizona mom claims that scammers used AI to clone her daughter’s voice so they could demand a 1$ million dollar ransom from her as part of a terrifying new voice scheme. “I never doubted for one second it was her,” distraught mother Jennifer DeStefano told WKYT while recalling the bone-chilling incident. “That’s the freaky part that really got me to my core.” This bombshell comes amid a rise in “caller ID spoofing” schemes, in which scammers claim they’ve taken the recipient’s relative hostage and will harm them if they aren’t paid a specified amount of money. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/ai-clones-teen-girl-s-voice-in-1m-kidnapping-scam-i-ve-got-your-daughter/ar-AA19LWPF

If the shoe fits. Twitter criticized after labeling NPR as ‘state-affiliated media’ (NewsNation) — NPR president and CEO John Lansing fired back at Twitter on Wednesday morning after the social media platform put a label on the news organization’s profile calling it “state-affiliated media.” NewsNation partner The Hill reports this designation is one Twitter uses for state news agencies such as Russia’s TASS and China’s Xinhua. “NPR and our Member stations are supported by millions of listeners who depend on us for the independent, fact-based journalism we provide,” Lansing wrote in a statement. “NPR stands for freedom of speech and holding the powerful accountable. It is unacceptable for Twitter to label us this way. A vigorous, vibrant free press is essential to the health of our democracy.” https://www.newsnationnow.com/entertainment-news/media/twitter-npr-state-affiliated-media-ceo-responds/

More from the war on CH4. And yes, this agency is headed by the son of the former top manager of the AFL-CFO. U.S. safety agency to consider ban on gas stoves amid health fears A federal agency says a ban on gas stoves is on the table amid rising concern about harmful indoor air pollutants emitted by the appliances. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission plans to take action to address the pollution, which can cause health and respiratory problems. “This is a hidden hazard,” Richard Trumka Jr., an agency commissioner, said in an interview. “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.” https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2023-01-09/us-safety-agency-considers-gas-stove-ban?expandComments=true

Hmm, seems somewhat inevitable with socialized medicine. Some Canadian Health Care Patients Say They're Being Encouraged To Just Die Already Unfortunately, the philosophical argument for the right to die can also end up colliding with troubling decisions in a country where the government funds and controls access to healthcare. That is reportedly happening in Canada, where some citizens say health officials are actively encouraging people with disabilities and other chronic medical issues to consider suicide. According to the Associated Press, hospitals are raising the possibility of assisted suicide with patients who hadn't asked about it. These conversations are not motivated by quality of life but health care costs. The A.P. notes that Belgium and the Australian state of Victoria, which allow physician-assisted suicide, tell medical professionals not to bring up euthanasia so that it's not seen as medical advice. In other words, make sure it's the patient's idea. This is not the case in Canada, where health care workers are trained to inform patients that they can choose euthanasia if they have a qualifying condition. This has led to some patients, particularly those with disabilities but not necessarily fatal illnesses, having some unpleasant conversations. One provided a recording to the Associated Press: https://reason.com/2022/09/07/some-canadian-health-care-patients-say-theyre-being-encouraged-to-just-die-already/
