The thing about this. The dismissal of “air conditioned offices”. Is that Pete Hegseth never went to airborne school. Never went to air assault. Never attempted a ranger tab. Never served as a company commander.
These are uncomfortable, non-air conditioned gates that every infantry officer passes.

Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?
HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

The official policy of the Trump Administration is ignorant bigotry. We’re asked, under principles including charity, to assume that people support the administration despite that policy, not specifically because of it. I am increasingly unwilling to extend that charity.

If your naturalization case is or will be put on hold by this, especially after the interview, go see an immigration lawyer now.
Naturalization is not discretionary, and federal judges have a unique role in deciding delayed naturalization cases.

The Trump admin has paused all immigration and naturalization processes for people from one of the 19 travel ban countries; including Cuba and Venezuela.
Even people who fully passed the citizenship exam are having their cases put on hold, just inches from the finish line.

Scoop: The Trump administration has paused all immigration applications filed by people from 19 countries banned from travel to the United States earlier this year, halting green card and U.S. citizenship processing for broad swaths of people.
