Epic and hilarious! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trump Mocks Biden's Autopen Usage with Epic Photo [...] President Trump, who actually shows up to work and signs his own documents, addressed the scandal during a speech at the Department of Justice on Friday, and he didn't mince words. "Crooked Joe Biden got us into a real mess with Russia and everything else he did, frankly. But he didn't know about it and he, generally speaking, signed it with autopen. So how would he know?" Trump's right—how would Biden know what he's signing when he's not even doing the signing? Trump followed up with an absolutely savage (and frankly, hilarious) post on Truth Social on Sunday.

Great story and great news. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 'Oopsie...Too Late': Gang Members Arrive in El Salvador Despite Activist Judge's Orders On Saturday, we learned that Donald Trump had invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport violent members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA). Shortly after that, an Obama-appointed activist judge said not so fast and ordered for planes carrying these criminals to turn around. As Matt Margolis wrote earlier, "Chief U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, apparently more concerned with the rights of foreign criminals than American safety, issued a temporary restraining order against Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act. This centuries-old law has been successfully used by multiple presidents to protect our nation from genuine threats." But do you know who is not more concerned with the rights of criminals than the safety of the people of the United States and our allies in Central and South America? El Salvador's president Nayib Bukele. [...] https://pjmedia.com/sarah-anderson/2025/03/16/oopsietoo-late-gang-members-arrive-in-el-salvador-despite-activist-judges-orders-n4937977

What happened previously might not apply to what's happening now. You'll just have to wait for clarity. You can e-mail the consulate, contact your U.S. Senator's office, or both. Uncertainty is tough, certainly, but it may take some time before things crystallize.

Thrilling Sunday report, see man: Spectacular weather, Texas weather Many man. Of course, we did not leave the casa all day, perfect Sunday man. Conquered the Many (2+1) LLs, domestic we man. Breakfast/lunch/din-din was Tuna Glop, ingest we man. Miu was soundly zzz-ing on Mini-B.'s bed, zzz miu man. We thought it opportune to snack on a tin of sardines, snack we man. Of course, miu comes all the way downstairs the instant the lid is off, man. We had to hold the tin high and keep pivoting to avoid intense miu interest, man. We're surprised that we didn't get sardine oil all over the place, somehow-proficient we man. We managed to consume the entire tin while dodging interested miu, ingest we man. Meeting PJC (Proximal Junior Chica) Monday afternoon, meet we PJC man. Lunching with RJC (Rubia Junior Chica) Thursday, lunch we man. Two other chicas are initially interested in us, too, see what happens man. Party with the rubias tonight, cavort we man. And that was/is our thrilling Sunday, report we man.

Rubias get more leeway in these matters, si man. We recommend more evolution on your part, conclude we man.

Quinnipiac just got 21%. I really wonder who these 29% and 21% are, and what happened to their minds.

Post a new thread. (This old one is now closed.) You can also e-mail the consulate to ask them directly.

Sorry for her torment. It's rough. Keep us posted! We care.

You're all hat and no cattle, D ma'am.

In addition, the consulate isn't able to refuse the visa on the basis of information that USCIS has seen and passed on.

It is Sunday! We have proven (that is, if correlation = causation) that our jokes bring about approvals and positive progress. Accordingly, here is our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: =========================================== THE BLONDE BANK-ROBBER A redhead, a brunette, and a blonde robbed a bank and were trying to evade the police. They came upon a farm and hid in the barn. The redhead hid near the horses, the brunette hid near the cows, and the blonde hid in a pile of potatoes. The police came to search the barn and stopped first near the horse stables. The redhead let out a hearty "Neigh!" The cops were convinced that the horses were indeed alone, and the redhead escaped. The police then searched near the cow pens. The brunette let out a hearty "Moooo!" The cops were again convinced, and the brunette was able to escape. The police then turned to the stall where the blonde had hidden. The blonde, seeing how easily her companions had gotten away, said, "POTATO!"

Report: Texas Has Saved Humanity Over 3 Trillion Seconds By Shortening 'You All' To 'Y'all' TEXAS — A new report out of Texas A&M University revealed that Texans have thus far saved humanity three trillion seconds by brilliantly shortening the term "you all" to "y'all." According to researchers, no other linguistic development in all of history has saved the human species from more wasted time or syllables. "Many lifetimes have been literally saved by 'y'all'," stated lead researcher Dr. Marty Schmitt. "Well, not you all, like the people gathered here in front of me listening. I don't know if you guys have done anything for humankind. I'm betting on pretty neutral. But the word 'y'all' has saved so much time and opened countless windows of opportunity for the human race. Thanks, y'all. Again, not speaking to you people." [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/report-word-yall-has-saved-humanity-over-3-trillion-seconds-by-shortening-you-all

Get Pfizer working on a vaccine for this -- they'd surely be happy to help. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Minnesota Republicans Introduce Bill Classifying 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' a Mental Illness Senate Republicans in Minnesota are set to introduce a bill that classifies "Trump Derangement Syndrome," commonly referred to as TDS, as a mental illness. For those not privy to the latest medical journals, TDS is a condition where otherwise normal humans turn into frothing, wild-eyed lunatics at the mere mention of a particular golden-haired president. Symptoms include spontaneous outbursts of "Orange Man Bad!", an uncontrollable urge to blame him for everything (including, but not limited to, their burnt toast), and a knack for seeing Hitler in everything he says. The bill, already logged into the legislature website, will be formally introduced and read in the chamber on Monday. It has five Republican authors added to it.

Good luck, health, and safety to all related Saffers.

Or Addis Ababa, even farther. I'm going to ping somebody who should have more insights.

Smart thinking, I agree. For sure. Could Dad emigrate somewhere where you could visit him? That long? Holy mackerel. Where's the +1,000 upvote button?

tjasmin111, welcome to the forum! This is an old thread (now closed to further comment). Sabela doesn't have an immigration timeline, but you can hover your cursor over the name "Sabela" and click "find content" in the pop-up box. This will show that Sabela passed that stage and several more, and so all is well. If you're still concerned about your own issue, you can start a fresh thread.

Just from your photo above: What a lovely, happy couple!

If South Africa gets its act together, maybe this won't be necessary for long. I have no specific knowledge, but my guess is that Nairobi would be the only consulate on the east-ish coast of Africa that might have the wherewithal to handle transfers. A bigger concern for me would be how and where "U.S. Citizen Services" would be handled.

Brian, good thinking. What you're describing is called "front-loading the petition package." The requirements to pass USCIS's standards for the petition are minimal. Petitioners often fail to realize that the visa interview at the consular phase is even more crucial. When dealing with a difficult consulate or one in a high-fraud country, it's prudent to include extra "evidence of a bona fide relationship" such as documentation of your multiple trips. It's important not only to document your DUI, but to clarify that your fiancee is fully aware of it. I would put USCIS's required materials on top of your package, and behind this have a cover sheet with "FOR THE CONSULATE" atop the boarding passes, receipts, and selected photos from each trip, along with selected correspondence throughout your relationship, that you want the consular officers to see. Be very careful to exclude any correspondence in which you playfully refer to each other as "husband/wife." "Now" is a relative term -- it will take many months before your petition is adjudicated, and months after that before it's assigned to a consulate, and longer still to obtain a visa interview.

You asked; people are telling you what needs to be overcome. Prayer will have zero impact in your circumstances. And you need to answer the remaining questions from JeanneAdil.

God is completely powerless in the face of the consulates, especially Lagos.
