Kind of reminiscent of what Reagan staged when the hostages were released from Iran back when.

Visited all-you-can-eat buffet that day? Prawns were a little off.

Please show us where, particularly, these boats land. I'm sure the US Coast Guard would be interested.

This sounds like a new version of that silliness where enforcement people would follow you around Bkk waiting for you to toss your cigarette butt and then present you with an on-the-spot fine. My first time in Pattaya, not long after my arrival, I witnessed a tiff between a punter and a working gal, with her shouting "You farang! Farang hap to pay!" I soon learned those last four words can be considered country's national motto, they should put it on the coins.

Coming soon: fart fines. "You farang! You fart, you pay now!"

And what became of the phone? Maybe can ID the attacker or license plate from the pre-assault vid.

I was disappointed that she did not say my favorite Senate committee dodge: "I don't do hypotheticals." I wonder if any of these clowns said that at their bar exams. On the positive side I suspect some stirring in the US military following that show the top brass was forced to sit through a few days ago. They all knew about the babbling DT, and were then subject to a talking-to by his cabinet's version of Gallagher. It could be that the military will take to the streets but not under the command of DT: what side will Fox be on? Who is Gallagher? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkylnCKJCpg

Doesn't this reek of that dreaded social malady, Wokeness? Women aren't supposed to be things like airplane pilots and soldiers, right Pete? Well, at least she wasn't a beard-o. There was a sci-fi novel some years ago where it predicted that it would be revealed that Elvis was another incarnation of Jesus. I've been anticipating one of these US Christian types to pick up on it. Another stunt that just might come to pass is "ancient scrolls" are discovered that predict, Nostradamus-like, the coming of DT and the wonderous transformations he will bring.

What, things that will take money from her or hers? That certainly got her attention, she's even changing her religion! Money changes everything.

Disgusting! The quality of the pics, I mean. "How much you pay?"

"Oh! hahaha! It means can only use to buy movie theatre ticket! Sorry!"

I think you're working the wrong orifice.

I saw the headline to this thread and thought "somebody's started a new login."

People who are against helping those in need, in principle, perhaps need to learn a bit of humility and compassion. These guys have been, and apparently continue to be, a solid voting bloc that votes against their own interests, go figure. It's been going on for decades and words alone will not change that. But it is sad for them as the situation is in the hands of the clueless, but at least they can take comfort that it is being done by White men. https://www.axios.com/local/indianapolis/2025/09/25/trump-argentina-bailout-indiana-soybean-farmers

Had you forgotten about them? WSJ, Fox, and NY Post are part of the same spin machine, same bile poured from the same blender. I hope you caught it yesterday, someone in the WH press corp asked DT if he would pardon Maxwell, and he tried to fake that it had been so long since he heard that name that he forgot who she was. It looks like he inspired a new MAGA fashion trend. His press sec claims he works 24 hours a day, maybe he shuns sleep because he's trying to avoid the approaching nightmare repercussions of his Epstein days. IMO if the "files" are revealed they will be scrubbed clean of anything that could stain him, so don't expect any reward from their release.

It's actually pretty funny, depending on how elastic your sense of the absurd is: Biden was a comatose zombie in the basement of the WH while laying out all these elaborate plots. Funny and sick at the same time! IMO Biden's biggest failure as POTUS was he didn't get rid the guy who went on to get elected again. If there is any other person than their idol that the MAGA crowd should hold in reverence it is Merrick Garland.

She is a woman of the world, she probably has friends everywhere *wink*. If the Western countries reject her, probably Putinland. That will have DT putting those Depends to use. She can bunk with Ed Snowden. I lived in Brazil for a while, and even though they are known for their liberal lack of extradition (probably thanks to Ronnie Biggs) they are actually quite tough. There would be something new nearly every week; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesse_James_Hollywood made the news at the time I was there, also there was something about a pregnant Mexican pop star and her dirtbag boyfriend/manager. The general message seems to be "we don't want trash like you either."

I don't know how to find the whole clip, but saw on teevee that when Collins first asked the question he made it sound like he hadn't heard that name in such a long time . . . Terrible actor. I'm wondering if Federal Corrections, or whatever they call the prison system, will sue to have her sent to a prison her like would usually be sent to. Released in the wee hours and dashed to a private jet and whisked off to a place with no extradition agreement.

Bad news for the MAGA drive to normalize pedophilia. It was only weeks ago that MAGA pols were declaring that Maxwell was the real victim.

Looks there might be some copyright infringement involved. It might be necessary to be from New York City and born before 1970 to be familiar with this logo. They were famous for hot dogs and orangeade.

You have decided to marry a bargirl. So what do you tell mum? Via oujia board, or is there now internet service in Hell?

If this is what the Everest experience is then so much for the adventure and challenge. May as well build a tramway.

Is this the Ryan that shaves his privates?

"Allowed"? Hatch Act? Emoluments? And just who is going to enforce these things? I'm waiting for the MAGA regime to remove females and non-whites from SCOTUS. At present the only suspense involving SCOTUS decisions in whether the majority will be 5 or 6. Want something to hope for? The infighting in this WH and the MAGA GOP could possibly lead to something akin to the Night of the Long Knives https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_of_the_Long_Knives (figuratively speaking, of course).

Next is China. Look up the "belt and road initiative" in progress, Asia merges with Africa as China's bloc, But there will be revolt, as nations that have already experienced colonialism can see what is going on. Already the locals can see the opulent living of the Chinese entrepreneurs while their wages are a pittance and of course there is animosity. I don't think this will work (in Africa, at least) without China exerting military force. Even now, when you hear of a war in Africa, the reflexive thought should be "where is China on this?" As for Asia, word is China has secured (and helped construct) a land connection from PRC to Karachi. giving China shipping lanes that do not require them to navigate around Indo-China. I'm sure driving a container transport across the Karakorum Highway can be deadly, but it's a start.
