The right to have freedom is the pillar of democracy. Russia invade and attempt to subjugate Ukraine is tantamount to taking away Ukrainians freedom. Fighting against Russia invasion is fighting for their freedom is a shining beacon for democracy. Simple notion to acknowledge to many but not you.

Especially from pro-Putin Republicans like Majorie Taylor Greene with her full throated defense of Putin and the invasion of Ukraine.

Money well spent to rally the support for democracy.

Honestly you fall for that kind of Russia propaganda from their troll farms?

Mate, personally I think you have given your opinion that tax payers like you should not be funding the war & many can respect your opinion. Don’t go beyond that with weak arguments and emotional rebuttals.

He was in military fatigues which is typical of him since the start of the war and to remind Congress that his country is still at war. By costume, you probably referring to those superhero NFT animations.

Is that akin to throwing ketchup on the wall and hope some stick ????

Some keyboard warriors here have spoken their piece but what does Americans feel about the war. Majority of Americans (57%) believe that US should continue sending military and financial aid to Ukraine. Only a third (33%) say they think US can’t afford to spend more on the conflict. 82% of respondents perceive Russia is an enemy up significantly from last year. and 76% Americans consider Ukraine an ally. https://www.voanews.com/a/poll-majority-of-americans-support-continued-aid-for-ukraine/6858460.html

We will finally know a long running dispute surrounding Trump. Just how rich is he? He brags nonstop that he's really really rich claiming he's a billionaire but we know of his frequent bankruptcies, business failures and questionable valuations of real estate holdings may speak otherwise.

He will still be investigated by NACC even if he resigned. He held the top position in AMLO but paid scant attention to the Chinese triads alleged money laundering activities. Meanwhile, the prosecution team appointed by the AG held their first meeting last week.

Delightful indictment watch. Who will the first to indict Trump on criminal charges. Will it be DOJ or the state of Georgia. Rubbing my hands with glee and joyful expectation. Will Santa deliver his orange jumpsuit? Ho ho ho Merry Christmas.

France was overran by Argentina in the 1st half. If I recalled, France formation was 4-2-1-3 with 3 strikers and a very porous midfield. Not sure whether this formation was due to the players availability hit with illness before the match. Credit to the coach, he recognized the problem and put more bodies in the midfield and came back strongly. Rest was history. Great match.

I think he has planned to step down from Twitter and put up this carefully crafted marketing ploy to be seen as congenial to the public. He know full that the public sentiment is negatively against him. He simply can't manage well all the companies spread out throughout the world. Simply put he has bitten more than he can chew. Tesla is floundering and he still have startup Neuralink and his tunneling firm to manage. He is stretching himself thin and he now knows it.

Desantis cut from the same cloth as Trump. Both are narcissistic, egotistic and egoistic. . A dangerous right wing politician even more than Trump. He will be rejected by the general voters if he run in 2024.

The big question is whether the political situation has changed following the passing of the previous royal. The previous political dynamics and those interwined personalities have either passed or in advance ages. The army constitution royally endorsed cemented the grip of the military over any future government and weakened the country biggest party. There are changes taking place in the new era that seem to weaken the military. Still we can't really be certain of the any paradigm shift knowing well that politics in Thailand in history are also in the state of flux.

It’s some kind of far right fantasy to twist things around and try to make mundane stuff conspiratorial. Cuomo sacked because of his sexual misconduct. Soon after Jeff Zucker resigned too. Fox and CBS to have similar sackings and resignations due to sexual misconducts. CNN has to reorganize and Don Lemon has to move to daytime as he was an established face. Trump will fade away but CNN will still be around. No one really give a hoot to the NFT salesman.

My quote of the year. ”I can’t believe I’m going to jail for an nft salesman”. Anthony Gioner, far right personality known as “ Baked Alaska” who is facing sentencing for his Jan 6 assault on the US Capitol.

It’s already an amazing run to reach the semi-final for Morocco. Hope they don’t lose heart and play to win 3rd placing with the same desire and hunger. 3rd placing in the World Cup will capped an historic achievement for a representative of the underdogs. Asia is all behind Morocco to win over Croatia.

IMO the appointment of Police Chief Damrongsak is to speed up the investigation and prosecution process. Previously, Pol Gen Srachate Hakparn (BJ), who is the depity national police chief was assigned to supervise the investigation, which was being handled by a police investigation team headed by the commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau. This layered investigation process will slowed down the investigation which was criticized by Chuwit as being "too slow". In response, Damrongsak decided to take charge personally. He has lots to prove as he will retire in 2023. Prayut also has vested political interest to have those criminally involved prosecuted.

He is expected to go for higher office in next 2 years and Florida is just a pathway. He will continue with wasting tax payers money in stunts to appeal to the wider Republicans audience.

"Ïmmigration to US has slowed....And that's exacerbating the labour shortage problem that we have." Joseph Lavorgna, America Chief Economist at Natixis.

I guess that even for political purposes, it wouldn't be a popular decision when majority of Floridians have been vaccinated and majority favour vaccination mandate in polls. A waste of tax payer money like his publicity migrant stunt. He is still riding on a high after his big win and behaving cocky.

He has being a target since 2004 whe he exposed police corruption which forced the police commissioner to act and he has not relent on his crusade. Even Thaksin had to bowed to his allegations and investigations were done resulting in 4 police major generals, 9 lieutenant colonels and many top police officers suspended. He was kidnapped gone missing for days and emerged dazed and found by a tax driver. He alleged that he was drugged and beatened. As a political candidate, he escaped an assassination attempt. Why he is doing this, I have no clue but I am sure glad he is exposing police corruption and he is a very brave man.
