Lee Zeldin, EPA Administrator, and I, as President, have done the job, and produced all Permits long before anybody expected that to happen...

Kash Patel heated exchanges today at senate hearings

With Cory Booker
KASH: “Your rant of false information does NOT bring this country together. It is MY TIME to address your falsehoods. You are an EMBARRASSMENT to this country.”
BOOKER: *melts down* You don’t tell me my time is over! You can’t lecture me!”
KASH: “This is MY time. Not yours.” 

With Adam Schiff
Kash: “We have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russiagate in January 6. You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate. You are a disgrace to this institution.”
“You continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade. You are a political buffoon at best.”

  8. I'll take that job!
    Let's make a quick calculation.
    The Township has approved 5 MORE registrars, so the minimum they will have is 6.
    40% of nights a year we can not have weddings (Friday night, Motzei Shabbos, Erev Yom Tov, Yom Tov, Sefira, 3 Weeks, most of Tishrei, etc.)
    So on the +/- 210 nights that there are weddings, at 10 weddings a night - each registrar works on 1.67 applications per day.
    How long does it take to process each application? What do they do for the rest of the day? What do they do for the rest of the year?

    1. Registrars don’t just handle marriage licenses. They also record births & deaths and process requests for copies of the records.

    2. Not much work.
      Data entry on a computer.
      Can be done off-site probably cheaper than the fees involved.

    3. The basis for hiring is the weddings you can't start claiming other work Also 5 is a huge jump sounds extreme - btw not too many births taking place in Lakewood if any..
