They're still guaranteed the right to be citizens if they're born to a US citizen, they just can't use the overseas residence as a "US location". There used to be two ways to acquire citizenship, this basically requires you to do one and eliminates the second.

This article has the document. It is a puclication aimed at the military. You have to apply in the name of your child before their 18th birthday. What the efffff?

Didn't read really far back. I couldn't find any reasoning behind this move. This is one more reason to get out if you have plans for a family. Don't they have retention problems in both the Military and Foreign Services already?

(I think they stay up at night to think up totally stupid things to do)
 
Re: POTUS 45.57: We Should Have Voted for Zaphod Beeblebrox Instead.

So with the clarification the rule is a white child is automatically a citizen but an adopted brown one isn't. That makes sense given the "morality" of this administration and its voters.

He sure does. He's making sure that our fine soldiers aren't at home banging their wives all day when they could be out shooting the browns. Because if any pu**y is going to be grabbed, Donnie's going to be the only one doing it.

"I have been FAR tougher on Russia than Obama, Bush or Clinton. Maybe tougher than any other President."
Whenever Trump uses a superlative, he's lying. Also when he doesn't use a superlative.
 
Re: POTUS 45.57: We Should Have Voted for Zaphod Beeblebrox Instead.

Meanwhile, Trump has asked for a review of the $250 million dollars earmarked by Congress for the increase in US military assistance in the Ukraine to fend off Russia.

Why is this a story? Because while it's being "audited," the money CANNOT be spent, and there is an expiration of September 30th on the funding...


Why on Earth could Donnie be slow-walking this for? :rolleyes:


*edit* Whoops, Rogie beat me by three minutes.

The little boys are fighting, they have left us all behind
The little boys are dying to preserve our way of life
It's our patriotic duty to make sweet love tonight
C'mon, little girl

See, these lonely, lonesome ladies they don't ignore me any more
All these lonely, lonely ladies knock knocking on my door
I'm the only game in town and it's so easy to score
Now I know why dirty old men are always pushing for war

Military Times and a couple of other sources the Service people use are all carrying it including the document and the quotes from the person who held the presser.

Why just services?
 
Re: POTUS 45.57: We Should Have Voted for Zaphod Beeblebrox Instead.

Armed services were granted the exception that they were considered residing in the US while deployed. It only applies if both parents are not in the US.

So if one is a citizen and residing in the US, they are still granted an exception. As I read it.
