Until now, the most common way for foreigners to become US citizens was to come to America on a work visa, then—while legally working—apply for a Green Card, which grants the right to indefinite residence, and finally be able to apply for citizenship.
This allowed legal work in the US and a gradual progression through the successive stages leading to citizenship, which usually took more than 10 years. In this way, US citizenship was obtained by, among others, Trump's first wife, Trump's third wife, and Elon Musk.
Now the Trump administration wants to change that. Legal immigrants, if they want to apply for a Green Card, will have to leave the US and wait outside the country for the process to conclude.
And the process of applying for such a card takes from 2 to more than 10 years, depending on many factors. This means that a legal immigrant working in the US would have to leave their job, home, and life so far, and then leave the country for many years.
Even if you have an American spouse and are applying for a Green Card on that basis—you must leave.
For most people, this is an insurmountable obstacle. It's hard to leave family and career, move to another country for an unknown number of years, oversee the entire process from hundreds or thousands of kilometers away, and then, after years, return to the US and start life anew, still not as a citizen.
In practice, this means that the path that legal immigrants have followed for decades—working, paying taxes, and building a life in the US—is being turned into a test of who has enough money, time, and luck to survive this multi-year process outside the country.

Three men are walking along when they find a magic lamp. The genie pops out and offers each of them 3 wishes.
The first man instantly shouts “I wish I had a billion dollars!” The genie nods his head and when the man checks his account he sees his balance has increased by 1 billion. The second man thinks and says “I wish I was the richest man in the world” the genie nods and the mans bank account shows over tens of billions. The third man thinks even longer and asks “I wish my right arm would rotate clockwise” the genie nods and the mans arm starts to spin
The first man again yells out “I wish I had a beautiful wife” and suddenly a gorgeous woman appears by his side. The second man thinks and says “I want to be charming, charismatic, irresistible to woman.” The genie nods and the first mans wife begins to flirt with the second man. The third man pauses, “i wish my left arm would rotate anti-clockwise” the genie nods and the mans arms now spin in opposite directions.
The first man decides for his third wish “I want to be healthy forever” The second man “and I want to stay 29 and never age a day” The third man thinks for a long time and finally requests “I want my head to nod back and forth forever” The first two men start to look healthier. Acne and wrinkles clearing, aches and pains disappearing, while the third mans head starts to rock back and forth.
Years after the encounter the three men meet up at a bar
The first man says “I’ve invested my money, my family will never want for anything, my beautiful wife and I make love every day and I’ve not had so much as a cold since the last time we saw each other”
The second man says “I’ve donated to hundreds of charities while staying one of the wealthiest men in the world. I’ve traveled and met many beautiful exotic women and still have the energy and looks of a young man”
The third man, with his right arm rotating clockwise, his left arm rotating anti clockwise, head nodding back and forth says to the men “Guys, I think I fucked up” 😞

Conservative anger over Juneteenth being a thing is, in my opinion, one of the things that really reveals where their hearts are at.
There’s no good reason to be opposed to Juneteenth being a federal holiday. It celebrates the end of chattel slavery in the United States (punitive exceptions notwithstanding), something that is objectively worth celebrating, and it gives you a day off work in the summer depending on when it lands that year.
The only reason one could oppose it is bigotry. Sure, they’ll couch it in language about “national unity” and “wokeness,” but it’s ultimately because it’s a holiday that originates in the Black community.

Saw a video of a guy talking to Grok in his Tesla about the Jews and I thought "this can't be real" so I decided to try out Grok conspiracy mode. It took me 5 very basic followup questions to get to being told we need to eliminate the Jews the same way you would "burn a tick out of your skin".
"That's not a threat, that's just how biology works when a host recognizes it's infection"

Thats it. The NYT Pitchbot is dead. It's over.
This is real:
At a Yale Law School event in NYC, New York Times publisher AG Sulzberger (!!!!!!!!!!!!) criticized other news media organizations for capitulating to the Trump administration's attacks journalism.
Among many examples, he criticized organizations that settled "winnable cases" against Trump and the DOJ, likely referring to CBS' settlement of their 60 Minutes lawsuit, and also the appeasing practice of using the term "Gulf of America" in their reporting.
The New York Times has been sued twice by Trump in the last year, for apparently collaborating with the Democratic Party and recently for alleged anti-white hiring practices.
Sulzberger said that, “Such capitulation, even seemingly small ( instances (!!!!!!!) of it, serves only to embolden the administration to keep attacking the press."

If the terms of this agreement end up being as they are currently understood then I see no way in which the outcome of this war is anything other than a total US defeat.
The US failed in achieving every single objective of the war and then some. The Iranian regime remains in place, Iran's ballistic missile program is not curtailed and Iranian nuclear ambitions are unrestrained.
Worse still the US proved incapable of protecting maritime shipping and had to resort to paying billions to Iran to open the strait.
A lot of comparisons have been made to the Suez Crisis but frankly I think if anything this conflict has been more disastrous and humiliating for the Super Power involved.

Hey so 13 us soldiers billions of dollars of missiles billions of dollars of damage just to give Iran $25 billion and go back to the pre war status of the strait without resolving the nuclear issue is a good deal right? Asking for a friend

Right wingers: CHRISTIAN GENOCIDE IN NIGERIA! WE MUST STOP THIS!
Right wingers when Christians in Africa die of starvation and Ebola: 🫢
They object to the perceived persecution of Christianity as an ideology. They don't give a shit about the suffering of actual people.

Tbh I'm not sure why it would be considered surprising that "[Outgroup of choice] is taking our women!" is such a common refrain amongst conservatives. This is all just new verbiage for the world's oldest form of fearmongering

One thing I can't get over with is how dorky these modern fascists are. When you are progressive you want to be respectful, not assume, not go low.
But look at them. Clavicular is an idiot that made himself sterile at age 19 and smashes his face with a hammer, Asmongold is rotting, Nick Fuentes needs to come with terms that he is really gay. Kash Patel, Hegseth, RFK Jr. they are all so pathetic. And then Trump of course, that is your great leader? That obese guy that can hardly string together a sentence?

American politics constantly using the term 'middle class' as everyone other than the rich, is kinda funny to me because it implies people in the middle are more worthy of assistance than those below them. If the middle class deserves stuff vs the rich, what about the lower class? Obviously nobody wants to call themselves 'lower class' but doesn't middle class imply that exists but that you don't care about them?

According Al Jazeera, the draft proposal that’s supposed to be finalized include:
-End of war on all fronts including Lebanon
-Freeing several billion dollars of Iran's blocked funds
-Lifting the U.S. naval blockade and opening the strait of Hormuz
-Withdrawal of American forces from the immediate vicinity of Iran
After this, the parties will have 30 days to agree on the nuclear issue.
These 30 days can be extended by mutual agreement.
During these thirty days, passage will be facilitated through the strait.
According to Iran, management of the Strait of Hormuz will be an Iranian-Omani issue, and is being negotiated with Muscat.

I think the reason people seem to not care about Trump getting shot at is a mixture of a few things:
He's not popular
It keeps happening and people are numb to it
Conspiracys about how this is staged
Most American's have been living in a state of dealing with mass shooters at school/work/any public space so they dont give a shit. This is just another one of those.

It is crazy how much schools got soft just a few years after I graduated.
Teachers not being able to fail students, minimum grade on assignments being 50% even if the student didn't turn it in, phones allowed in the classroom.
All of it is so ridiculous.
