House elects Mike Johnson as Speaker, ending GOP chaos
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I guess you mean pre-Covid, as the economy has been poorly managed by Trump during Covid years. It's been already achieved a few quarters ago! 😃 https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn02784/ -
It is a bit paradoxal. One the one hand, they are worried by, and unsatisfied with their economic situation, but on the other hand (as noticed by someone from the Fed) they don't behave like people fearing the economic situation: consumption is steadily growing and businesses go on recruiting employees.

Trump said: “So with all those losers out there that say – ‘Trump never got the –’ you remember, I used to say, ‘Mexico will pay for the piece of the wall.’” 😃 Fact check: Trump falsely claims he’d promised Mexico would pay for ‘a piece’ of the border wall https://edition.cnn.com/2023/10/30/politics/fact-check-trump-mexico-piece-border-wall/index.html

It will be interesting to see wether they are able to impose it to the army or not. A good indicator of the current power balance. -

I remember a small cheap bar years ago, managed by a couple. They also had access to a vacant first floor condo, and customers could go to toilets there. However, the lady was convinced there was a ghost there, so every time she needed to go to toilet, she used to go to another place and pay the usual 5 pence fee! 😁

More than just tolerant, It's part of their way of life and their culture (and even their religion) What have your imaginary foreign brigades to do with this issue? The proposed laws are just legalizing something which has been part of the Thai society for ages. I cannot think of any Thai people I know who could be against these laws. Actually, it seems It's the foreign square bigots brigade (not sure there's even enough for a brigade) complaining. Why not let the Thai decide their laws based on a large consensus in society, without placating your biased politico-religious farang view on it?

There may be another interesting consequence for Powell, as she is also subject of a lawsuit for defamation by Dominion. https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-dominion-lost-lawsuits-idUSL1N39S1UF Having lied may be an aggravating factor -

Every day, a little bit of joy! 😃 "I don’t think Mark Meadows would lie about the Rigged and Stollen 2020 Presidential Election merely for getting IMMUNITY against Prosecution (PERSECUTION!),” the former president wrote. “Some people would make that deal, but they are weaklings and cowards, and so bad for the future our Failing Nation. I don’t think that Mark Meadows is one of them, but who really knows? MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!! https://news.yahoo.com/trump-rages-former-acolytes-turn-040501374.html
