Jatuporn Slams Gov’t Envoy Over “Foolish” Ceasefire Deal
I would follow the newspaper articles about him around the time when the redshirts were occupying the streets in Bkk. One of those political figures that can't possibly be taken seriously (best of show back then was the guy telling the Issanis to bring a litre of gasoline with them to Bkk to burn the city down). I have the impression his relationship with the T-guy made him quite wealthy, and I suspect his real position is "whatever the boss says today." Yet another country where the conservative status quo is being co-opted by a personality-driven political movement. Quite the international fashion these days.

Thaksin Donates 1m Baht: Boosts Border Cops' Morale
And then he dispatched a bunch of randy Issan farm girls to earn it away from them. The guys get laid, the poor farm folk get money, everybody happy.

The Jar-Jar Binks of Thai politics. Mee Sah? Is that too sharp? How about Curly Joe from the Three Stooges? If Thailand had it's own version of Saturday Night Live he would be the political commentator.

Thanks. It is supposed to be.

Putin Shrugs Off Trump’s Ukraine Ultimatum
I think they need another romantic rendezvous in Helsinki to patch things up. Remind the bottom who is the one on top.

Putin Shrugs Off Trump’s Ukraine Ultimatum
This will all become evident when they install a kiss-cam in the Oval Office, it will be focused on DT's ass. Coochie-coochie Marco, and tell us how heavenly the smell of adult diapers is.

Trump fires person in charge of jobs report
Complaining constantly. Doesn't any of the congregation catch on? Ten years of it now, sheesh!

Trump fires person in charge of jobs report
Not just firing her, he is defaming her character and there is no need for that. I'm hoping they will bring a case against him personally, but maybe that is just playing into his hand. After all, he has a 6-3 SCOTUS behind him.

A favorite Brit expression: "barking mad!" Finally got a chance to use it.

Cambodia? Someone should tell him that's where THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS! Maybe he thought it was Cameroon.

Kamala Harris Shuns California Governor Bid, Eyes 2028 Presidential Run
Not just for the responsibility of the job, but for the degrading experience of campaigning for the office -- Mitt Romney occasionally comments about this. That the current POTUS is quite comfortable with this, and can't be bothered with that responsibility nonsense says a lot.

Good news for Americans: Trump is giving $600 rebate to everybody
Maybe the payout will require you to sign an oath stating that in return for the payment you agree to never mention Jeffrey Epstein ever again.

Kamala Harris Shuns California Governor Bid, Eyes 2028 Presidential Run
Well, now that Fox channel is part of this conversation, look back to eight years ago when DT was doing what the Fox personalities were suggesting. Consider that for a moment, a numpty like Kilmeade realizing that the POTUS is listening to what he is saying, and maybe even taking his advice -- and this is a guy hired as the sports guy who can't find his butt with both hands! So they have gone from bias-heavy promoters to endorsers, then to advisors, to cabinet members, and now to actual candidates. Let's not forget DT was very much involved in laundering money for former Soviet-block oligarchs. Here is a sample of one such that has surfaced https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ritz-Carlton_Baku_Hotel (some have nicknamed it the Georgia O'Keefe building ) I suspect that this lawsuit against Fox/Murdoch may be part of a laundering scheme to funnel $$$ into the president's personal coffers. What's a few billion between two billionaires?

Foreign Tourists in Pattaya Feel "Short-Changed" Amid Local Deals
Went to the Taj Mahal while India ages ago. You had to buy a ticket, like in a movie theatre, app. 10 US cents. No pedigree checking. Seems they took care of that! (90 rupees ~US$1)

Trump denies another Journal report, this time on Powell, Bessent
JD keeps saying "it's all fake" but won't specify what in particular. That DT and Epstein were buddies? That there is a birthday book? That Epstein isn't really dead? That DT isn't really president? And so on . . . Maybe his Hindu wife explained the world of illusion stuff to him and he now sees his very life as a hallucination. Quite enjoyed that scene with Powell at the construction site. When DT pulled the paper out of his pocket I knew it was a joke: Powell did too, notice how he was hesitant to put on his glasses. Pillow guy was pulling that stunt every few days post-2020 election.
