Auschwitz

Auschwitz is former German Nazi concentration camp. Although currently located in Poland IMO it's more sufficient to write foregoing phrase instead of just saying that "Aushwitz is in Poland". Kuba349 (talk) 16:58, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kuba349 He visited it in 2023 and at this point Auschwitz was in Poland. 2A00:F41:1CCE:A51A:0:61:D36D:8801 (talk) 06:52, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Married to Kamala Harris

He is married to Kamala Harris but she is not the 49th Vice president but the 46th Vice president. Mystikfairy61 (talk) 22:27, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

She is the 49th VPOTUS. According to List of vice presidents of the United States, the 46th VPOTUS was Dick Cheney. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:26, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Affair with nanny leading to pregnancy

Several "reliable sources" are citing a so-called "unreliable source" (The Daily Mail) that reported a married Emhoff impregnating his nanny. Emhoff has admitted to the dalliance, but not yet to the pregnancy. How does this work, when hundreds of reliable sources all cite a partially admitted-to story published in a taboo source? Can we green light this, and cite USA Today??? Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:00, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The affair is already in the article (cited to CNN). Schazjmd (talk) 23:05, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was his nanny, and she ended up pregnant. These important points are missing. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:21, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Those details appear to be only sourced to the WP:DAILYMAIL at this point. He acknowledged an affair to CNN, that's reliable and where we should leave it for now. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:07, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But all those "reliable sources" are parroting the taboo tabloid? Might be time to re-examine our definition of "reliable". Magnolia677 (talk) 10:47, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such position as 2nd Gentleman (or Lady)

Neither the spouse of the President nor Vice President hold ANY official position in the United States, which, in case you missed the past 250 years, is a CONSTITUTIONAL republic and neither said Constitution nor Congress has ever authorized a functional role for spouses, nor assigned fairy-tale titles to their unofficial non-positions.

In fact, I seem to recall you guys fought a big war to get rid of the monarchy and inherited titles.

Yet, here we are.

WTF? 99.254.68.4 (talk) 06:47, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Out of curiosity, what do you think First Lady of the United States refers to? DarthCloakedGuy (talk) 13:27, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Doug Emhoff

Doug Emhoff is not the first gentleman and Kamala Harris is not the 49th president!!!!!!!! Slcdoe (talk) 16:21, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In this article, I can't see where it says that they are? Knitsey (talk) 16:27, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
