“Hi I ask for your good wishes


 

this may not be important to others but it is important to me. Last year just as my wife and I were going to go to Greece to work in a refugee camp, I was put on the no fly list and had my naturalization as a US citizen questioned by trump's State Department. I had to go before a judge to get it straightened out. I testify today at the US House about being put on the no fly list and also about having the validity of my naturalization challenged. It will be part of the supporting documents on trump's abuse of power if they have article in the impeachment case about that. Wish me luck. Thanks.”

Ted Kennedy was also on the no fly list so you are in like minded company.

IIRC, it was learned (2013? 2015?) that many immigrants applying for naturalization were not fingerprinted and a proper background check was not done. Those people have been subject to review, the effort having started in 2016 ("Operation Janus", https://www.oig.dhs.gov/assets/Mgmt/2016/OIG-16-130-Sep16.pdf ). So there may be an element of truth in the :bouncy: , but the review process started under Obama, not Trump. Also, if his naturalization was under review, that might have placed him on the no-fly list during the review.

My speculation is that the genesis of this problem was the switch from ink-based fingerprinting to sensor-based digital fingerprinting, back in the mid or late 90s. The technology was not ready for primetime, but it was a hard switch, with no ink-based option for those with problems. A friend's immigrant wife had her naturalization delayed a year or more (and made more costly!) because of multiple failures of the digital sensors ... because she's a Filipina with relatively tiny fingers and fingerprints. She eventually got a valid read and was naturalized, but I suspect that, bureaucrats being naturally lazy, eventually the failed fingerprintings were just waived until at some later when improved sensors replaced older ones.

Hopefully some R in Congress has the knowledge to hand crappy his own ass, if he really is going before Congress.

I'm sure Trump personally singled you out and added you to the no-fly list.   ::)

You'd know if you were going to testify, not even the Dems would have you show up 'Just in case' they decided to add something that your personal problems and sketchy associations could be bootstrapped into some road-apples about 'Abuse of power.'

Umm actually I brought his name up in our weekly meeting and we did decided to single him out.
