I don't agree with everything here, but this is a good post. We need more dialogue like this imo. Instead of, as you point out in the first paragraph, what happens in practice.

Eh, we were both right. And wrong lol.

Yes and no. It only applies to International evacuations. So it definitely does NOT apply to this situation. Just like you don't need a passport (also a part of the procedures quoted) to travel to PR or from PR to other US territory. But you are correct in that it would apply to US citizens being evacuated internationally. [Hidden Content] On Thursday morning, MarketWatch reported that a State Department policy requires U.S. citizens to sign a promissory note for costs of an evacuation. But that rule only applies to U.S. citizens based internationally. Because Puerto Rico is U.S. territory, evacuations are not under the State Department's jurisdiction.

And again, this does NOT apply to PR since they are US citizens. Hence, they are NOT being charged nor required to sign promissory notes. (See link explaining in response to the first time you posted this.). However, this is very good information for Non-US citizens who may require US evacuations.

I'd really like there to be such a thing as karma in this world. I'm not certain there is. But IF there is, it came along like a big old B_ _ _ _ in this instance!

And golfing. Tweeting WHILE golfing would be preferable.

No no. I would argue he should spend MORE time tweeting.

That is excellent information which is completely INapplicable to Puerto Rico. They are US Citizens. HOWEVER, it appears that has been sorted out and PRs are NOT being charged or forced to sign promissory notes. [Hidden Content] As for my post, I simply posted a tweet about Trump's tweets. I think we can all agree Trump's considerable time spent on Twitter is fantastic use of presidential time.

My bad. He is doing plenty: [Hidden Content]

Busy night for the Tweeter in Chief lol [Hidden Content]

My favorite sportscaster growing up. Watched him nightly as my dad tuned in every night for WFAA's 10 o'clock news. He's still my favorite today:

Lamar happy they have a very winnable game against Nicholls this week. *snicker*

Mack's research is not UT quality. And Jurich was never offered the job, but wanted the job. Just like Briles. Thankful we didn't hire either.

This guy

Has anyone heard from Dove since the storm?

Yep. And with deliberation. Multi-billion dollar empire could be on the verge of collapse. Which I would love to see.

How did that playoff run work out for ya Rangers??

That program's misgivings existed long before Underwood was on the radar. On the other hand, I doubt he came in with the clout to make any major changes.

This is much bigger than one sneaker company peeing on another: [Hidden Content]

I found that kind of shocking as well. My guess is he will be less supportive before she gets out of the pokey.

Don't these guys know NFL players are kneeling for the National Anthem??
