If you have any clue to world politics as regards to nuclear detente, you need to read the principles of Russia’s nuclear weapons policies. If you don’t understand the policies that was approved by Putin on the nuclear deterrent factor, you like the ultra Maga will continue to use scare tactics for political points. I can say that we are fortunate to have an experience and competent commander in chief in Biden who keep US troops out of the war arena. That’s major if you understand the Russia’ s policies.

That’s Putin’s line echoed by the ultra Maga scaremongers.

Biden always a step ahead of Trump. Trump can forget about joining the striking autoworkers with his faux support. “ Every fiber of our union is being poured into fighting the billionaire class and an economy that enriches people like Donald Trump at the expense of workers,” UAW President Shawn Fain said.

Shame on you for making such demeaning remark when the majority of Ukranians favour fighting until victory to take back all territories seized by Russia including Crimea. Your preverted Maga viewpoint is Putin's hope but Biden stand firm to help Ukraine and the world thank him for that. https://www.rferl.org/a/32091265.html

The patheticism is the false equivalence.

Sensible policies compare to thoughtless performative policy like building the wall.

Thaksinomics 2. Same economic circumstances as back in the old days. Economy was wrecked by the '97 financial crisis, export growth was down, household debts was equivalent to 80% of GDP and domestic consumption was down. Growth in those period was barely above 3%. In stepped Somkid and Thaksinomic 1 based on the idea that the nation should be governed like a company. Populist policies to lift private consumption and policies to reduce cost of living. Prgrams like OTOP, Village Fund, farmer moratorium and UHC were introduced. Marketing campaigns overseas to bring in FDI. Sretha started to implement some the the same policies on Day 1 and he is the right man for the job. Thaksinomic 1 has given Thailand some of the best GDP growth and it should work this time with the added tourism sector being a potential growth engine.

Baht recent decline could be a result of the perceived danger and outflow of funds by bank clients who are not certain of their investments. Clear directives on how the tax reforms will be implemented should be the order of the day.

According to legal experts, the policy modification appears to have 3 specific targets. Residents trading in foreign stock markets through foreign brokerages, cryptocurrency trader and Thais who have been exploiting a loophole that allowed them to bring foreign earnings into the country tax-free after keeping it in an offshore account for more than a calendar year. The basic principle of tax is that you must pay tax on income you earn from abroad no matter how you earn it and regardless of the tax year in which money is earned. Seem the new government is simply tightening tax loopholes. The danger though is more regulations may alienate private bankers and financial institutions.

Wrong, she will make a good Maga GOP lawmaker who doesn't need to abide by decency and moral principles just like her orange leader.

Ever heard of bioplastic? Besides non oil, bioplastic requires less energy than conventional oil based plastic. Produce less carbon dioxide during production. Save the world mate.

I will be brief as we are straying away from the topic. DHS and Pentagon need overhaul. Trump’s whim is a danger to America if he is re-elected. Can’t have leader that make decision based on whim, period.

Let’s test your facts. He gutted the Pentagon, DHS and DOJ & left these institutions without any leaders. Obviously he gutted out of spite without any plan for replacements only acting heads. Anyway I am referring to more destruction of institutions if he is elected. The warning shots were clear that “ you go after me, I will go after you”. Trump has an affection with Kim and Putin and well documented. Nothing to dispute here.

Ambitious plan ! Nay, tax for incoming funds have been around for ages. He just sets targets for tax reform.

Institutions being organisations in government that create, enforce and apply laws which an orderly society obeys. An authoritarian like Trump if he become President can destroy institutions by intimidation, dismissal of non-conformists and replaced with conformists. He has divided society to a level whereby his supporters and even lawmakers made statement freely of a civil war. He count Putin and Kim as bosom friends. The intergrity of the President essentially complements the working of the institutions and in the case of Trump can destroy these institutions from within. He is more than a grumpy ex-President, he is a serious threat to America democracy and the world if elected.

There were enough evidence that Trump sat at his dinning table and watched the attack on TV from videotaped testimonies by White House aides and security staff discussing the events of the day. He not only watched the attacks, he also replayed parts that he like especially when his name was chanted by the mob. There are also audio tapes of his senior staff, close advisers and family members begging him to do something. All these evidences were on full display at the 8th hearing by the Select Committee. Mark's testimony will be icing on the cake.

Sure Americans should and could do better but the joy of Biden spanking Trump twice is just too good to be missed.

Got to say, a very healthy working geriatric who get things done unlike the other geriatric who is on a cognitive decline as he keep repeating the same old lies.

Other daughters may not be so privileged to have a rich father like you. Anyway, she a bright girl to foresee the poor quality tablet which has not been issued. I agree that teaching need improvement.

We know enough about TRump without your platitudes. We also know that he is a one term President beatened by the man you try to vilify. Well unless you a election denier like him.

Sure achieved a lot in spite of your alleged mental difficulties. * more people are working than any point in American history * Making more in America * Rebuild the infrastructure historic expansion of benefits and services for toxic exposed veterans * first meaningful gun violence reduction legislation in 30 years * rallied the world to support Ukraine * strengthening alliances and partnership to deliver for the american people * students debt relief and more and more.

It is a target and is achievable. Number of conscripts has been declining while the number of volunteers is increasing. From about 80,000- 100,000 conscripts each year down to 58,330 last year, a drop of almost 30+% while volunteers is increasing from 22% in 2010 and jumped to 75% in 2022. The Defense Minister will need to improve the incentives like welfare benefits and career development to encourage more people to join miltary services voluntarily.

A voluntary military service will not have conscription. He will gradually phased out conscription to voluntary military service. Challenging reform for abolishing conscription which was introduced since 1905.

The deadline for transition to a voluntary military service system by April 2024 was indicated by the Defence Minister. My advise to K Arun is to ask the right man.

You can always tell them to put less or no sugar. In thai "nam tan nik noi" (less sugar) or "nam tan mai aw" (no sugar).
