Getting rid of the green haired vegans in the FDA will be a good start. You know, the ones who try to get eggs out of a rooster. Because ... gender.

He's been in office for 3 days. It'll take awhile to undo the Biden damage.

I love KBuri. It was always my favorite weekend getaway from working in Bangkok. Nowadays I try to get up there on my monthly visa runs to Thailand, including last weekend. I absolutely love the Saturday night street market. But I'm just not sure it's got enough variety to live there full time, especially as a non-drinker. If I can get a decent room at $100 or $200 a month, I may go ahead and have a dual residency in Bangkok and KBuri. It would be good to have a place to store an SUP and canoe/kayak so I don't have to haul them up from BKK like I did when I worked at Asoke. Otherwise, the decent $15-20 a night hotels are fine. Bangkok for the excitement and KBuri for the sanity breaks.

Have you seen that Babylon Bee skit? It rattles on a little long, but it is funny.

I don't know about them, but I want the biggest, burliest MoFo they can send. Did you catch how I threw in that inclusive pronoun?

If I had to live on 300 baht a day, you'd be able to see the nerve endings jutting out of my fingertips. At the very least, that explains a lot of the difference in how we all handle money situations.

You're confusing mercy with enablement.

This will be tested in the courts. Had he immediately laid them off, we'd be on the hook for back pay and huge claims of compensation for pain and suffering. Better to pay them to stay home (as if they were coming in anyway).

Exactly how does it overturn protections based on race, color, religion, sex, blah blah blah?

What's it say when it's cheaper to pay people not to come to work?

Then he has his priorities straight. America first.

I'm going with "dollars to donut holes". I think you can still get those for under a buck.

Meanwhile, here's the MSM gleefully announcing their own downfall... Claiming that fewer people watched Trump's inauguration than Biden's................................On the major networks. More and more have abandoned the major networks and are watching on independent outlets. The New York Times, Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, The Washington Times and others rushed to point out that Biden’s inaugural ceremony received an estimated average of 33.7 million views on cable networks, while Trump’s average cable viewership added up to 24.6 million. While the television viewership lagged behind Biden’s, Trump’s inaugural ceremony received 36 million views on X alone and over 5.2 million on the president’s personal YouTube page.

But it's become meaningless as donuts cost more than a dollar after Biden's term in office. Another loss for America.

Sadly, that photo link is blocked here where I'm staying. But if it's the same portrait I've seen it looks like Trump is trolling, deliberately invoking his mugshot that helped him get elected.

What was gutless was waiting until after the election, after repeatedly promising he wouldn't do it. It'll be years before the voters believe anything a Democrat says during an election year. Which isn't a bad result...

Over the year I have read a lot of stupid stuff here. But this take the first price. Who is attacking who, and who is killing civilians and bombing schools and hospitals? You don't need to answer. I will block you right now. Russian Troll So which statement that I made is incorrect? Did Putin attack on Biden's watch, over 2 years ago? Has the $$ hundreds of billions that Biden dumped into the conflict resulted in a win or fewer deaths? Has the dying stopped? Is Ukraine somehow self healing so the cost of rebuilding is going down? Please do block me. You'll be doing both of us a favor.

You've apparently never been in sales.

Biden had over 2 years to do something about it. All he did was squander a couple hundred $$ billion. And the killing and the dying keep going on. And the cost of rebuilding Ukraine keeps getting more expensive.

How many of those countries have a trade deficit with the USA? Edit: Or a trade surplus depending on which POV you're using?

Were they really unaware, or did they change their mind (and their story)? Wouldn't be the first time in the history of the world that a woman took money for an act, then denied it when it became public.

Guest workers also don't stay in mid-city hotels on the taxpayer dime, costing $$billions that could be better spent on citizens' needs. Like water to fight fires.

Colour balance of the camera was set wrong? Or it may have been a file photo for reference only, as the OP states.

So, not the clown shoe that was doing exactly that, last week...

I've never encountered a group of people who are so proud to be ignorant and so determined to stay that way and not to get the other half of any issue. And I'm not using "ignorant" as a pejorative. By definition, ignorant means I don't know. I can correct that. But only if I am willing.
