Ah yes. Another Trump whataboutism. The man continues to live rent free inside the minds of the left.

You may want to refrain from being a realist and go along with the new definitions coming from the current administration....and other posters on this forum. You are right, it wasn't "new" jobs but simply businesses being able to reopen and hire people for the jobs that were laid off pre Covid.

Just curiously if you had the same outrage when Antifa attacked federal buildings in Philly and Portland. I'm sure there were other instances but those two come to mind. ???? For the record, I condemn any violence against federal agencies/properties.

It works for men who commit crimes then suddenly have a change of heart and become monks.

As a school administrator for several schools, why do you think such a statement would be appropriate? Couldn't this cause other students to bully them based on your accusation?

Enforce the laws. Now that is leading edge stuff ????

"Created"? You may want to fact check your statement. Of course Biden is gloating his administration "created" jobs but the term to use should be jobs "added". The pandemic caused many employers to lay off workers but now those employers are bringing back those workers as businesses are opening back up to full operations.

Valid advice by the members but I've been contacted by a Nigerian prince who promised to transfer $50 million to my account anytime now. I'll be on easy street soon. And it only cost me a $199 gift card ????

Guessing they did, and right to where the cameras were. If the photogs came up to them, they didn't seem to shy away from the publicity ????.

Lucky if you get half of the value, unless you are trading for another phone.

Excellent point re: private and personal (see my earlier post). Maybe his friend, who previously posted, can confirm/deny he's a tiktok'er or YouTube vlogger. I would bet a large Leo he's one or the other.

And you don't, by adamantly stating it was "unintentional" although you further state "you believe her"? To you it's an agenda, to me it's my opinion and thoughts.

Once again, reporting by the media was not the question. I asked if it is the belief the reporting of "outrage" would be the same if the person was a straight white male athlete and was a vocal conservative.

Ok you believe her, I and others do not believe she packed the pens accidentally. Opinions are like bu$$ holes, everybody has one. Some do point out her ethnicity, orientation and political views but I do believe it's important on how "outraged" the MSM on the left are reporting it. You are correct, the media would be reporting regardless but that wasn't the question I asked. Do you honestly think Lebron James (and other self righteous celebs), the WNBA, and the MSM would be so supportive of a straight white male conservative if they were arrested in a similar situation? The answer is No, the left MSM would be gloating with likely headlines "Conservative thought his white privilege was above the laws of Russia". And you seem to be the one that keeps repeating the importance (or lack thereof) of ethnicity, orientation and political views, I wonder why?

How can you possibly know it was unintentional? Because she said so? There are thousands of guilty people in jailed that claim "Oh, I didn't mean to" excuse. That being said, I do think she is being used as a scapegoat because of the current situation at the time of her arrest. Now, you ask yourself, would the MSM on the left be outraged if the person had been a straight white male sports figure that flaunted his conservative views on social media?

And now she unintentionally got nine years in a Russian jail. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I'm betting he (and she) are attention seeking tiktok'ers, or they have a youtube vlog. Why not go to an area without the cameras if they truly wanted to pay respect for those killed. It's akin to people filming themselves giving money/food to the homeless then uploading their "generosity" on social media. My $.02 anyway.

The tribal armband tattoo puts doubt he's a Russian ????

You mentioned MSN, the poster you quoted did say "MSM".

Reminds me of the outrage when the young doctor was killed by a speeding motorcycle at the crosswalk. The kneejerk reaction was to repaint/redesign the "zebra crossings" to make sure motorists stop when people are in the crosswalk. How is that working? Like another poster said "give it 5 days".

The WNBA wants her back soonest. The league stands to lose hundreds of dollars without her on the court for the upcoming season ????.

Agree....for me unfortunately, it will be 3 weeks to get my Cert of Residency mailed (was told o/a 24 Aug). Then I have to go through the DLT office to get my renewal. I'm positive "streamlined" is not a concept in Thailand government but then again, think about how many people would be put out of a job if things could be done electronically. Nothing is simple with immigrations because the rules/requirements keep changing. What is required at CM is most likely different at Jomtien/Bangkok/Chiang Rai/etc.

Cert of Residency is the same for a New Bank Account, license (car/motorbike), and/or buying/selling a car. And yes, the CM immigration office needed a copy of each. Again, that's why I recommended he go to the local immigration office and see what was needed at "their office".

I haven't use the evisa for Vietnam but you may want to try a different browser. Some websites I use regularly will only work with Chrome and not Edge, and vice versa.

For the record, I was getting a Certificate of Residency for my car license renewal....and never indicated it was onerous. I simply provided information for the OP that each immigration location is different. And thanks for pointing out all my passport pages are in my passport, who would've thought such a thing????
