Many Americans are witnessing immigration arrests for the first time and reacting
Many Americans are witnessing immigration arrests for the first time and reacting I guess they slept through the Clinton, Obama and Biden administrations when literally millions were arrested and deported. But the MSM only reports it on the front page when it's under the Bad Orange Man. Or maybe they treat it like sausages. They're great as long as we don't have to watch them being made.

Iran orders closure of Strait of Hormuz — putting one-fifth of world’s oil supply at risk
It's times like this that show us why it's best not to drain the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to buy votes.

2 different stories. These seem to be 9mm ammo, not pellets.

What are you Snacking on now?
Pala Pizza. Basciola (sp?). Got it to go and ate it in the room. MRT Sukhumvit, just outside the exit to BTS Asoke. Shameless plug, I know. But great pizza.

Aussie Arrested in Udon Thani for Allegedly Buying Gun Silencers Online
Years ago I bought a couple of air rifles from a kiosk in Chinatown. Wide open, light of day. When I found out that metallic projectiles are illegal, I gave them to a Thai friend that had some pests he wanted to eliminate. He never told me what he did with them and I didn't want to know. I kept my airsoft pistols that shot plastic pellets until I left Thailand, then gave them to another friend because I didn't want them in my luggage or shipped goods. Airguns... Okay. Metal projectiles... Illegal. But do your own research. Don't trust interweb advice.

Illegal Migrants released into the USA in May2024 vs May 2025…
I actually have some sympathy for the ones that believed the Dems and paid the cartels $10K to sneak them in. They'll never see that money again. Unless... I hope the ambulance chasers set up class action lawsuits to sue the DNC to make them whole. They can do late night commercials on Mexican and S. American TV: Were you or a loved one harmed by DNC lies? You may be entitled to reimbursement of the muleage fees that you paid to get into the USA. Contact Dewey, Cheetum & Howe today... Edit: Sadly, somehow the US taxpayers would end up forking over the reparations and not the DNC who should.

Trump Pushes Forward with Unprecedented Deportation Drive Amid National Protests
Sure. Send in the social workers to face the rock and brick throwers. Not a good plan.

Zelensky Condemns “Pure Terrorism” as Russia Launches One of Its Largest Attacks on Ukraine
Putin has just shown Zelensky that he can obliterate Ukraine, but he's been holding back because that's not his goal. He already has what he set out to do. It's time for the dying to stop and the rebuilding to begin. Long past time. If Zelensky keeps sniping around the edges, he'll force Putin to take more of Ukraine.

Tourist Fined 5,000 Baht After Driving Jeep Onto Kamala Beach & Getting Stuck
Out of curiosity, are there any signs indicating "No Driving Allowed on the Beach"? And was it a 4x2 or a 4x4 Jeep? The girlie looking Wrangler doesn't appear to have lockout hubs. But I don't think that's the subject vehicle? Some of the OP attachments aren't downloading here...

Toddler Rescued After 30 Minutes Locked in SUV at Gas Station
It was on the day. But it's one of those timeless family stories we still laugh at, even 6 decades later. I couldn't eat vanilla ice cream for years after that. Or canned corn.

Toddler Rescued After 30 Minutes Locked in SUV at Gas Station
Lord help me, you just reminded me of a night back when I was a kid when Mom, Dad and all 5 of us kids got food poisoning at the same time in our small house with 1-1/2 baths. Both ends. Even the bathtub and wastecans got a workout that night. Regarding the OP, no need to panic since breaking out a window was always the 10 second option. I'm glad they didn't have to...

Donald Trump's use of English found to be at 4th grade level and below in some analyses. And yet, the Dems and lefties still don't comprehend what he's saying.

Indian street scammers in Sukhumvit
Hasn't failed me yet. But I also keep walking and don't break stride. Mostly on Suk, between EmQuarter and Nana. TBH, I haven't a clue what their game is. We've never gotten that far into a conversation.

Xarelto (Rivaroxaban) 10 mg Bayer -- anybody see lower than 1,400 baht / 10 tablets?
If they're scored, I don't hesitate to cut them in half. But if they're not, I assume there may be some reason for that. For example, they may be erosive and they're coated so they don't eat up my esophagus on the way down. That's just one example and oversimplifying, but the implication is pretty clear. Regarding dosages, I like reading the studies, but I usually go with what the doctor and I agree on. Sometimes, we adjust the dosages after trying one on. Maybe I need more or maybe less. But I'd prefer to base that on my own bloodwork and tests. We did a lot of adjusting and optimizing in the months after my bypass surgery.

2 Minnesota law makers attacked.
There's people famous for saying all kinds of catchy but stoopid stuff. Here's what prison does. It separates the dregs from polite society. After someone's been convicted 3 or 4 or 17 times, it's not a matter of punishment or rehabilitation. It becomes a simple warehousing issue. Or at least it should. Unless, of course, they bring back hanging.

I just say "no thank you" when they first try to engage. Never even lose a step. No need to be rude or profane (or provocative).
