Well I guess changing her identity was one of the reasons she got hired. Previously she'd been in trouble for welfare fraud because she said no one would hire her under her old identity. But I would agree, certainly a person with severe mental problems, a lack of education, and convicted of a crime shouldn't be teaching kids.

So is she back to grifting being white again?

These are the same types of scams that youtubers like Kitboga highlight and try to take the scammer for a long and hilarious torture session. Usually they will go after an elderly person in a variety of ways. There is generally a network of individuals in call centers abroad and then drop off locations or collectors in the US. I'd be very sympathetic normally, but after reading that article it truly was another one of those insufferable things and they did get dragged all over the internet for writing it. One theory out there is that the person actually lost the money another way but wrote the article and the elaborate scam as a cover story. One thing I've always told my parents is the various ways people can scam you. Mom's recent dealings with the medicare scam that she took no part in certainly has infuriated her, that the government isn't doing more to protect the vulnerable. My husband is currently working on stopping new types of scams that are attempting to defraud the government and college institutions out of student loans and grants. He says it's always unbelievable when he sees employees put clearly suspicious accounts through - giving them access to thousands of dollars.

Generally a SSN would be needed if you aren't going with an authorized user. The easiest way to start from scratch and no credit history would be a secured credit card.

The SLC thing was an annoyance for us to handle stateside (needing to send off proof of non-employment, late letters, phone calls, and threats), but once done we only needed to start paying once my husband had started his first job in the US. You're then reassessed every year. Honestly? It's a giant pain. If you have the funds to pay it off might be worth it to never deal with it again. We're still paying and will continue to do so for years. We kept a UK account for that purpose. Also make sure to complete a P85 and you might get money back from the HMRC. We also got rid of the ISA before leaving the UK.

I've seen a few discussions online that explain this type of product would not be legal in the US, and at the best possibility there are many tax implications if it is. It might be wise to speak to a CPA that might be knowledgeable in this sort of thing. Their own website does mention that holding this account may not be legal in the US and that it's important to check regulations. I've also seen discussions on expat forums that they spoke to NS&I advisors that told them it wasn't a good idea to continue them. It may not be technically illegal to hold them, but having physical communication sent via USPS mail service would be a problem regarding gambling laws and could additionally run afoul of state regulations. 'Winnings' would also be taxable and need to be reported on a variety of forms. If you ended up with a very large amount of winnings/earnings it would be a problem very quick. I think it is prudent to consider that this may be more trouble than it is worth and to move that money into safer legal options.

Our day consisted of having a good bit of our plans ruined by needing to call an emergency plumber because when dad calls and says the toilet is spraying water out the tank and what should he do and then has a panic attack and a nosebleed you know it's gonna be one of those days. The end result was a late night of trying food from the new Japanese place (which was okay will give A for effort but was just a Chinese take on Japanese food) and watching a movie.

This is a breaking story: A meeting about this will happen tomorrow. Word is PutinPie sent some kind of pew pew device orbiting into space and it is very bad. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/house-intel-chair-warns-serious-national-security-threat-ahead-planned-rcna138848 Any ideas on what it could theoretically be?

Printed out the 100 questions/answers from the USCIS site, and went over them every day until the interview. By then you should be good.

They did not have "free Palestine'' on the gun. They had a sticker that said "Palestine" on it. Not that it makes a huge difference, but there were many reports initially that were inaccurate including the sticker and the shooter's gender to the point police had to clarify. https://abc3340.com/news/nation-world/houston-church-shooter-had-free-palestine-written-on-gun-local-reports-say-genesse-ivonne-moreno-local-journalist-jeremy-rogalski-texas-violence-jewish-israel-hamas-conflict-middle-east

If you define Kelcie singing like a drunken half dead whale on the stage and her looking at him with one of those smiles that says "oh god what have I done" as a wardrobe malfunction then it was good enough. 😄

My husband had his Naturalization interview last week. Ironically the day after Kevin McCarthy got tossed out of speakership, so we wondered how that question could be answered correctly if it came up. It was quite a long trip for us, as we were on vacation in another state and I wasn't sure if I would be allowed in with him so he went in by himself. He arrived 20 minutes before his appointment. It wasn't too busy. There was TSA style security first, and then waiting for his appointment was about 45 minutes. You are given a number which is supposed to show up on the screen. His number took about 20 minutes to appear on the screen, so if your number doesn't appear immediately don't worry. His interview was about 10 minutes in length. The officer was very polite and no-nonsense. He asked for his NOA and asked for his US ID and his green card. My husband was very nervous and accidently handed him his UK driving license instead of his US one without realizing it. The officer was confused by this, but eventually that got cleared up, and had a laugh. He asked to confirm personal details and a few of the N400 questions. Keep in mind we had been initially nervous about tax questions, since we were unable to obtain every single tax transcript from the IRS (the IRS won't give them to you after a certain date), but were able to give them tax forms. But the officer did not want to see any of it. So I'd say as long as you have some sort of a combination of transcripts and forms this is not really an issue. He asked the six questions: 1) What is the economic system in the United States? 2) In what month do we vote for President? 3) What is the name of the Vice President? 4) Who is the Commander in Chief of the military? 5) What is one responsibility that is only for US citizens? 6) Who was President during the Great Depression and WW II? (hilariously the question that would trip him up the most) The reading was: When is Columbus Day? The writing was: Columbus Day is in October. He was informed that he had passed the test and that he needed to confirm the information that was going to be on his naturalization certificate. After showing him the Oath, my husband requested a modified oath, which was granted. He was then informed that he would be notified by mail that his oath ceremony would be scheduled. Later in the day the website updated to reflect his Oath ceremony would be scheduled, and the next morning his Oath appointment letter was uploaded. The ceremony is next week. All in all this has been a shockingly fast and easy process. Afterwards, since we were all dressed up we went on a nice date in the city before making the long trek back to our hotel. I hope this review helps others as to what to expect for Baltimore. It's a nice big facility that is not in the best area these days unfortunately. All in all the end of the journey has been the most simple experience. Thank you to all the guys and gals on VJ that has helped us through this whole process over many years.

Whelp, this one is a doozy of an indictment. That's a lot of cash and gold bars laying around your house for the feds to find. Seems he was also selling secrets to the Egyptians. You can read the indictment here. It is INSANE. You could make a movie about this: https://int.nyt.com/data/documenttools/robert-menendez-indictment-document/e9ff4e956cb8dfc9/full.pdf There is a passage that caught my eye: "Third, MENENDEZ promised to and did use his influence and power and breach his official duty to recommend that the President nominate an individual as U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey who MENENDEZ believed could be influenced by MENENDEZ {....}" Was the President interviewed? What did the President know and when did he know it?

Rachel Morin told her boyfriend that she was going for a run on a popular trail in the small town of Bel Air, Maryland. When she did not return, her boyfriend contacted police. The police said they had looked through the trail and could not find her, so it was initially thought of as perhaps a kidnapping. What was concerning to me is that they allowed the public to come to the trail and search, potentially contaminating the scene. We go to the trails and woodlands in the Bel Air area a lot, and after a few very frightening incidents, our list is growing smaller unfortunately and now we do not go walking/hiking without some sort of weapon. There were reasons to be suspicious of the boyfriend. He has a past criminal history, it was a very recent relationship. There were a few other suspects too - a creepy man was seen stalking women where she worked. There is also a homeless camp at the end of this particular trail. None of these panned out. Rachel was easily found by members of the public search party, within 24hrs of her going missing on the trail in a small tunnel, that is not very well-lit, but certainly open enough I have no idea why the police could not find her initially. While the police haven't mentioned the particulars of the case, it is said to be a brutal murder and rape. This is usually a busy trail, and no one questioned is said to have seen or heard anything. A few days later a creepy man claiming to have found her, was interviewed by the news and gave many horrific but confusing details to the press. Some of these 'details' continue to be falsely written today. They did not verify his story, and ultimately the police said this man was not only a grifter but he was lying for 'fame'. Rachel's family has tried very hard to enlist the public and media's help to find her killer. They have funds set up for her children. Have asked profilers to assist, and have had many charity events and held public pleas for help. The trail is now basically a memorial, and many from the town no longer feel safe walking. Some time later the police held a conference to announce that through DNA evidence, Rachel's killer was involved in a crime LA last year. We know little about the case as it involved the rape of a minor. But there was video of the suspect from behind - he appears to be Hispanic with some distinguishing features. As the weeks have gone on, it is possible the FBI has found links to another case in Chicago - and it is for this reason the police believe the suspect to be a serial killer or serial rapist. Rachel Morin left behind five children and a family that is desperate. Her killer is traveling and could be anywhere. Here are links to the case with videos of the suspect from the LA incident. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2023/09/11/rachel-morin-case-updates-criminal-profiler/70825144007/ https://www.fox5dc.com/news/rachel-morin-murder-maryland-sheriff-says-suspect-on-the-loose-could-strike-again https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/criminal-justice/rachel-morin-memorial-walk-bel-air-PYYWZG7PPJFDJMJKMTNFRGPCJI/ https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/harford-county/detectives-pursue-leads-in-la-chicago-in-rachel-morin-murder-investigation-7Y7VTH4OEVE6XEARKOYSIK47XM/ https://www.gofundme.com/f/rachel-morin-funeral-and-memorial-fund
