Surge in Covid-19 infections and rising death toll in Thailand
impulse replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
If it hadn't been for the so called wingnut deniers pushing back, we'd all be carrying vaccine passports and still being required to produce them to get on a plane, into some restaurants and to renew our MRT and BTS passes. Because once they implement that level of control, they're never going to give it up. -
Should I close my Thai bank accounts?
impulse replied to CartagenaWarlock's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I'd keep at least 2 of the OP's accounts alive in 2 different banks. You never know when one of the banks is going to implement a policy or make a mistake that will leave him with no account at all if he closes the other. Just pay the 200 baht ($6 USD) annual service fee and run a transaction or 2 through each account every year or so. Personally, I'd also pay for a debit card from each account just in case one of them gets eaten by an ATM at an inopportune time. Just cheap insurance... -
Me, too... I wonder if this 'splains it: Roughly 70% Of Haley Voters In New Hampshire Primary Weren’t Registered Republicans, Exit Poll Shows “Among Trump voters, 70% of them, according to our exit polls, are registered Republicans,” Chalian said. “Donald Trump, his support, 27% of his voters are registered undeclared or independents, 3% were unregistered before today.” “Look at how that compares to Nikki Haley, it’s a complete reversal, it’s an alternate universe,” Chalian continued. “Among Haley voters, 70% are registered undeclared, only 27% are registered Republicans.” https://dailycaller.com/2024/01/23/roughly-70-of-haley-voters-in-new-hampshire-primary-werent-registered-republicans-exit-poll-shows/ Looks like Dem shenanigans, since they won't be voting in the Dem primary... Why waste a perfectly good vote?

‘What if the worst had happened?’ Trudeau defends convoy response

I don't know enough about the Canadian legal system to know if a lawsuit can be launched and/or litigated based on a decision by a lower court. I'd like to think some of the truckers who were wronged (on several levels) won't have to wait for years to get their justice. -

You should note that I picked up on a long dormant thread... You may be yelling at a cloud. I've done that before. -

Like I said, the wheels of justice grind slowly... It'll be interesting to see the results of the appeal. In another year or so? -

The wheels of justice grind slowly, but grind they do... Now let's see if there's any consequences. Court Declares Justin Trudeau’s Sweeping Actions To Suppress Trucker Protests Were Illegal https://dailycaller.com/2024/01/23/court-declares-justin-trudeaus-sweeping-actions-suppress-trucker-protests-illegal/ -
You mean the co-conspirators who were offered leniency in return for a guilty plea and testifying against Trump? If I had to choose between risking 20 years in prison or pleading guilty and testifying in return for a suspended sentence, I can't say I'd be strong enough to stand for my convictions. Besides, we haven't heard their testimony yet, have we? If you look at all the irregularities outlined in the Texas claims of December, 2020 a reasonable person may conclude Trump was actually protecting the democratic process, not stealing it. But they carefully chose a venue where there probably weren't too many Trump fans on the Grand Jury.

That was about the 3rd or 4th iteration of the message. -

You can blame them, or you can blame the gub'ment and Big Pharma for the Orwellian way they handled the pandemic, destroying the public's trust. Anyone remember "Get vaccinated and you won't get sick"? Or, "Get the shot and you can visit grandma"? They've changed the goalposts so often that a huge percentage of the people don't trust them. And probably won't for years. -
The current "deal" being rejected by the Repubs calls for allowing the first 5,000 illegals a day to cross. No visa, no vetting, no way of knowing who they are. That's 1.8 million a year. To be processed, handed a free cell phone and sent on their merry way. Ostensibly, on to a free flight to the destination where they need more Dem votes in the future. Anyone beyond 5,000 a day would have to sneak across the same way they do today. So, basically no change except spending more money... Does that sound like something they should agree to?

Internet idol’s chilling end sparks murder-suicide investigation
impulse replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
It may have been as simple as a murder-suicide, but I sure hope they're investigating the possibility of a 3rd person killing both of them and making it look that way. -
Blow to Biden as poll shows Trump in lead for 2024 presidential election
impulse replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
70% of black kids grow up in fatherless homes. And I blame rap music. Edit: And if you want a better (and more entertaining) answer than I could ever give you, look up a YouTube called HERE IS WHY BLK PEOPLE HATE OFFICER TATUM. I'd post a link, but I'm in China where YouTube is blocked. -
I'm looking forward to the brave Patriot that FOIA's the flight records to see where they sent them all in the middle of the night. Then the documents and e-mails where they discussed and decided where to send them in the middle of the night. Because I guaranty they selected their destinations based on some kind of voting formula, where those votes would have the maximum effect when they implement the next part of their scheme, which is to grant them voting rights. Several cities have already tried. Just running it up the flagpole... Or it may be as simple as turning Texas blue, which is really all they need to do to pretty much guaranty a Dem win in every presidential election. But that's not nefarious enough. They need Congress and local elections, too. The greedy bastards they are.

But then watch them like a hawk, lest they spit in your drink or your dish.

If that's the case, I suspect they don't want it getting out that he was "catch and release(d)". Doesn't bode well for liberal policy makers. BTW, being an old Chicago boy myself, there's a reason they called Belushi's character in The Blues Brothers "Joliet Jake".
