MAGAs reading books and philosophers' essays? 😆

The Big Lie. 🤣 You know, the case Fox News settled by paying $787.5 million and by acknowledging that the broadcast statements were false.

I initially wondered how Bhumjaithai could have managed to get so many Senators from an selection process well controlled by the yellow-green network (they are certainly not the only ones who could be corrupt, so it cannot be the main reason). The explanation I got is that, as the ex-Junta's parties were too discredited, the yellow-green network switched to Bhumjaithai as the main party to defend its interests. If true, they shouldn't be too annoyed by courts. But then it also depends in which direction stratospheric winds are blowing.... It should be remembered that the Organic Act on the Installation of Senators does not prohibit vote swapping since the Senate election system requires the candidates to vote among themselves and encouraging other candidates to vote reciprocally is not considered illegal. Instead, the election system is inherently designed for vote swapping among the candidates. So it needs to be proven in court that those votes were made in exchange for a benefit (ex. Money or position). Another important issue is what happens if they are convicted. Replace them by BJT people on the reserve list, or nullify the whole election? If they are just replaced, it would be a good compromise for BJT, allowing to officially dislodge corruption, while keeping BJT's influence intact. It would be coherent with Anutin distancing himself from the 60 Senators (actually, he may get rid of competitors, so it may be beneficial for him)

Exactly. It's better to let Trump talk his usual B.S. and discredit himself! 🤣 For example: “We don’t do much business with Canada from our standpoint. They do a lot of business with us. We’re at like 4%,” Trump said. That “4%” figure is wrong. Official US data shows that Canada bought about 17% of US goods exports... .....Trump also repeated his frequent claim that the US is “subsidizing Canada to the tune of maybe $200 billion per year.”......Official US statistics show the 2024 deficit with Canada in goods and services trade was about $36 billion. Fact check: Trump claimed the US doesn’t do ‘much business with Canada.’ Canada is the world’s top buyer of US exports https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/06/politics/fact-check-trump-mark-carney-imports

The timing about the India deal is quite obvious. If they signed a deal first with the UK, it means there is nothing in it which can be used by the EU to get more concessions. Otherwise it would be easy for EU representatives to argue that if India granted a benefit to the smaller UK, they must also grant it to the EU (India's largest export market). So it can be assumed that it won't be better than the deal between India and the EU. At best, it may be as good.

From your link! "For years, automakers have been throwing billions into US assembly plants, but mostly for electric powertrain production. BMW has invested $1.7 billion in US production, Ford $11.2 billion, GM $9 billion, and Toyota $13.9 billion – all to build battery-electric, plug-in hybrid, or mild hybrid vehicles. This means each company's newly-minted factories will pump out millions of battery-powered cars to American shoppers." Say thank you to Biden! 🤣

Maybe simply try to access it on the browser? There are sometimes compatibility issues with AN on specific environments. For example, until recently I was not able to click on any AN banner in the lower part of my Samsung tab's screen. For example, I had to reload to see new messages because I couldn't click on "see new messages". It was ok a few months ago, then it did not work, and now it seems to be OK again. Probably related to updates on either AN or my tab. You can report your problem to them.

Isn't your phone is a bit old so the OS is not updated any more? Or are you still using the Thaivisa app?
