And that was 8 years ago…

I’m not passing judgement on good or bad, I’m asking “Isn’t that how it always is?”

If you send rescue workers into the middle of a violent storm, then you have to rescue the rescue workers.

You’re advocating punishing an entire population for having the temerity of selecting their own elected government.

There’s a term for that:

Isn’t that standard procedure though? Not much disaster workers can do until actually stops raining, right?

Katrina hit August 29th, 2005. Bush signed the relief package 9/2, 4 days later. And that was just approving the money to be spent, not actually spending it.

I mean, if the area is actively being destroyed, how do you even get people in to help?

I can’t believe this whole 50+ comment slapfight started over an argument of possessive apostrophes.

Internet - Don’t ever change!

For the record: If you want to imply that the Clintons are owned by someone, it’s NOT “Clinton’s”. They are the ones BEING posessed, not the owner.

“The Clintons (plural) were Epstein’s (possessive) clients (plural).”

Everyone should have realized it was security theater when nobody was asked to remove their underwear after the underwear bomber.

Next up is to ditch the fluid restrictions.

“I’m sorry, that’s too much fluid, here, let me dispose of it right next to this massive line of people in case it has an explosive, chemical, or biological component…”

I think the top link is busted, it just goes to the red image on a loop.

I remember being 4 or 5 back in the 70s, my mom tried to put me in Converse, I refused to wear them calling them “clown shoes”. LOL.

I feel vindicated.

Time To First Byte 0 to 800ms.

“It now takes Microsoft’s browser less than 300 milliseconds to start rendering the first parts of a website for users, whether it’s text, images, or parts of the user interface.”

They’re bragging about now meeting the minimum standard. LOL.

She’s Canadian, so pretty sure she’s a native speaker. Sure, could be French speaking…

She didn’t marry at 15 or 16, but that’s generally the age kids look to get their first jobs, that would have been the time to start looking at legal requirements.

That was the thing my daughter in law ran into… Myanmar doesn’t allow dual citizenship, so she had to give up her own citizenship to become a US citizen.

In the end, it’s safer for her now because she can visit her family and doesn’t have to worry about being immediately blocked re-entering the US.

True, but it’s a green card hearing that should have been done 29 or 30 years ago when she was 15 or 16 and trying to get her first job. :)

She’s been here since the George H.W. Bush administration… plenty of time to have worked things out.

Well, the only guarantee is being born on US soil, there’s nothing in place for minor children who are already citizens of a different country.

I could imagine automatic citizenship like that would cause more problems. Other countries would be like “Hey, we didn’t authorize that!”

Oh no, they’ll still revoke legitimate citizenship, but she made it way too easy by, you know, not earning citizenship in the first place.

Well, if they come here at 10 and aren’t a citizen and don’t do the work to become a citizen, then they still aren’t a citizen.
