A reminder! ~~~~~~~~~~~ Awkward: Pete Buttigieg Returns To White House From Maternity Leave WASHINGTON, D.C. — Administration staffers were caught off guard by a painfully awkward situation today as former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg returned to the White House from his maternity leave. Buttigieg had gone on an extended break after his husband adopted twins in 2021, only returning this morning to find that the entire Biden administration had been replaced and his job given to someone else. "Wow, was I really gone that long?" a confused Buttigieg reportedly asked upon entering the White House. "I know I asked to have my maternity leave extended a bit, but wow!

British Man Arrested For Silently Praying For Person Stabbing Him LONDON — Authorities reported the successful arrest of a 38-year-old man who was caught silently praying for the well-being of the person who was stabbing him. He is currently being held awaiting trial. William Henry Brown was reportedly on holiday from Bristol when he was suddenly jumped by an Islamic migrant assailant with a stabbing knife. But instead of calling the police, he defensively held up his hands while saying a silent prayer for the man who was stabbing him to death. Though allegedly a silent prayer, witnesses claim Brown was clearly moving his lips. Authorities [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/british-man-arrested-for-silently-praying-for-person-stabbing-him

Offer the interviewer an adult beverage, because "it makes me so witty."

You were probably already retired for the night, at Many a.m. man. "We're hot 'cuz we're fly; you ain't, 'cuz you not! Dis is why, dis is why, dis is why we're hot," si man.

Thrilling Tuesday report, see man: We were barely unbedded when Uncle T-B. called, WhinePissMoan senior he man man. One big thing was "My pills are all messed up, whine man," no they weren't unless he'd done it man. We settled him down, worried about straw dogs senior he man man. His lifelong pal Randy then came over with a computer guru, si man. Randy then began texting us with the identical complaints that we'd already heard, man. We tried to off-fend him diplomatically, over and over man. He continued, then said that God was watching our nonresponse, last straw man. We wrote, "Do not lecture us EVER again, no man," plus more man. We were suffering stomach issues from Monday's lunch and possibly evening coffee, not fun man. We took HSM and groceried for Uncle T-B., grocery we man. Upon delivery, Randy had gone, and computer was fixed, both positive man. Uncle T-B. told us that Randy had gone through all pills with a magnifying-glass, man. Randy then threw out some that didn't match, man. He couldn't have known that they were the identical meds from different suppliers, duh man. We pour individual meds into single bottles so Uncle T-B. doesn't end up with Manyzen partial bottles of the same thing, duh man. And how Uncle T-B. would somehow now be mystified by his pills (which he'd been handling on his own) is beyond us, man. We wish he'd quit bitching to every soul, including the staff and complete strangers, Mama T-B. agrees man. Mama T-B. said to tell Randy that if he wants to get involved, to take over all of it, regret it instantly man. Anyway, the above completely hosed our morning and our attempted siesta, man. Lunch was toucans of chicken noodle soup, ingest we man. Not a good idea for our stomach given high salt content, twinges thereafter man. Din-din was Tuna Glop, ingest without incident we man. The PJC (Proximal JC*) texted to see if we had enjoyed Monday eve as much as she had, si man. The EJC (Exotic JC*) thinks she can see us on Friday, hope so man. No word from the TMJC (Tex-Mex JC*), showing her caliber man. *expanded specifically for the benefit of QA ma'am, si man and QA ma'am man No party with the rubias tonight, no cavort must work on taxes we man man. No particular plans for Wednesday, must work on taxes we man man. And that was/is our thrilling Tuesday, report we man.

That's their authority. Congress has the authority to confirm the nominations. This would be preferable. The Supreme Court, at least, should have the brightest legal minds on it. Compare Gorsuch, Thomas, or Alito to Sotomayor or KBJ, for instance. This is talked about, and it's been tried. Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt tried to "pack" the S.C. with his favored lackeys, but this was ultimately turned away with difficulty. More recently, when Bidementia and his party were in power, they were drooling over the prospect of expanding the Court. The intent is never good or pure.

You can bring this up proactively at the interview. USCIS thrives on the truth.

The inferior primate gets jealous of poo-flinging prowess, so the reality goes, si man...

Involve the Immigration Liaison at your U.S. Congressman's office. They have channels for reaching USCIS. The Congressman's website should have a "release form" or similar, which you'd need to complete if the office is to inquire or intercede on your behalf.

Due To Tough Economy, Professional Tesla Bomber Forced To Take Second Job As Bernie Rally Attendee PORTLAND, OR — Even people with the most secure jobs in booming industries reported feeling the widespread financial squeeze, with one local Tesla bomber forced to take a second job as a Bernie Sanders rally attendee. Devin Hansbrough, a successful Tesla dealership firebomber, said that while gigs for George Soros and various NGOs have been steady, they aren't enough anymore. He now works a side job being paid to attend Bernie rallies to pull in extra income. "Every little bit of money helps," he said. "I had my biggest month of bombing Teslas ever in March, but with how expensive everything is these days, it just made sense for me to pick up a part-time job going to Bernie rallies just to make ends meet. Fortunately, I enjoy both jobs, so it's not too much of a hassle." [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/due-to-tough-economy-professional-tesla-bomber-forced-to-take-second-job-as-bernie-rally-attendee

"We are thrilled to announce the new 'California Home' edition of our popular Lego building sets," Lego representative Nancy Snyder said while speaking to a group of Legoland attendees. "Kids will love applying for permits, getting denied, waiting two years, doing environmental studies, and then hoping their approved permits don't need any amending before they can get to work on construction of the sets!"
