How Melania Obtained Her ‘Einstein Visa’ Under Scrutiny [sick]
Political Flare ^ | SEPTEMBER 27, 2019 | Andrea Jefferson

Back in 2000, Melania Knauss, a Slovenian model dating Donald Trump, began petitioning the government for the right to permanently reside in the United States under a program reserved for people with “extraordinary ability.” Knauss’ credentials included runway shows in Europe, a Camel cigarette billboard ad in Times Square and – in her biggest job at the time – a spot in the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated, which featured her on the beach in a string bikini, hugging a six-foot inflatable whale. She also claimed to be a college graduate. In March 2001, she was granted a green card in the elite EB-1 program, which was designed for renowned academic researchers, multinational business executives or those in other fields, such as Olympic athletes and Oscar-winning actors, who demonstrated “sustained national and international acclaim.”

They’ll do anything to take down Trump, the outsider.

And there you have it - if you go through the system legally and obtain a legal green card you’re evil.

Again you have more liberties and rights if you’re an illegal an act outside of the law than if you’re an actual citizen, legal immigrant.

So where are they going with this? They want to say Melania is an illegal alien? But the liberals love illegals. Even if for sake of argument they want to say something is wrong with how she got her American citizenship, they oppose deporting people and splitting up families. So why bring it up at all, based on their opposition to deporting anyone for any reason?

It doesn’t say anything about her paying Mexican “coyotes” thousands or dollars to sneak her into America or rent somebody’s toddler to build an instant family to BS the U.S. government with. This is bull****. A non-starter.

That they would call it the Einstein Visa is ridiculous.....Clever....but ridiculous.

The VISA was available to "talented" individuals in every field including the arts.

I’m very familiar with that visa program as my company is sponsoring someone for it and I have a friend who recently received it. They are very common for fashion industry and top models. Just the list of qualifications in the first paragraph of this article suggest a very strong case for this visa and maybe even a slam dunk, in my experience.

These visas go to people like acrobats, movie stunt men, and plenty of models and actresses. Another story counting on an ignorant public.

"The year that Knauss – now first lady Melania Trump – got her legal residency, only five people from Slovenia received green cards under the EB-1 program, according to the State Department."

Maybe she should not have qualified for that particular visa, but I don’t know why she wouldn’t have qualified for a visa with less-extraordinary qualifications. My life (church, work) has me up to my neck in immigrants on a daily basis. I know permanent residents whose qualifications or qualities are certainly no greater than hers. In fact, I wonder how the hell some of them qualified at all.

FATHER GOD, we stand in agreement with Your MIGHTY PROMISE on behalf of First Lady Melania Trump. Thank You for placing a beautiful, God fearing, dignified, and praying woman in the White House to represent our nation. In JESUS Name we pray. AMEN.

This is a really, really big mistake on the Democrats part

The failure will be epic and the blow back is going to hurt.

But I’m loving it

Democrats embrace Ilhan Omar and her immigration life story but reject and impeach Melania Trump’s

Go there. Please go there.

BTW, Melania is far more qualified for legit refugee status than Omar ever was and to the best of my knowledge, Melania has supported herself and never spent a day on welfare

Author thinks Oscar winning actors should qualify for it. Typical elitist.
