Thaksin’s imminent return stirs hope, anxiety in Thailand
candide replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Well, when his sister was elected, elections were organised under the Abhisit government by an EC appointed after the coup. I doubt they had a pro-Thaksin bias. -
The article was examining claims from an image diffused in social media. One half was true and one half false. To start with, you forgot to mention what was the question in the title of the article. It was: "When Joe Biden’s son Hunter was serving as "a director to Ukraine’s largest private gas producer," the elder Biden "threatened to withhold $1 BILLION in U.S. aid to Ukraine if they didn’t fire a prosecutor looking into" the gas company." No one denies that Hunter was working for Burisma when Joe threatened to fire Shokin. That was the half of the social media post examined which was true. There is also something else written in the article (quote below): "We found no evidence to support the idea that Joe Biden advocated with his son's interests in mind, as the message suggests. It's not even clear that the company was actively under investigation or that a change in prosecutors benefited it." That was the other half of the social media post examined which was false.

Let's forget about the troll and analyse the indictment... "Former Vice President Mike Pence's notes were mentioned in the charging document of former President Donald Trump that came down Tuesday. The notes were taken during a meeting with the former president sometime before the Jan. 6 riot. Pence's notes allegedly detailed what Trump said about election fraud and how he planned to challenge the election."

I know but there are sources I prefer not to evoked. BTW, do they contradict what I mentioned?

Trump's worth is mainly determined by the value of his assets, which may vary over time for whatever reason. If I remember well, the initial claim was not that he enriched himself 'in general', which is irrelevant, but that he took advantage of his position to generate revenues for his hotels. This is fact, and is independent from how the value of his assets may have varied over time. -

From your source: "Why the dip in Trump’s fortune? The coronavirus pandemic. “The value of office buildings, hotels and resorts have taken a hit amid the pandemic,” reads the Forbes release on Trump’s wealth." -
And all the more ironic that, if the U.S. embassy cable leaks can be trusted, the ousting of Thaksin was mainly caused by the establishment's fear of the occurrence of a particular 'ticket'. Someone whose name starts by P must be turning in his grave.

Despite Being Blasted, Chuwit Insists Thaksin Not Returning On Aug. 10

My comment was more about the person who may grant a pardon not being (comparatively if you get what I mean) of the type to be easily influenced -
The same witness also said that business was never discussed during these phone calls, and that Hunter was giving the illusion to have access to his father. Or are you cherry picking what you like from the testimony, and ignoring what you don't like? (On top of it, nothing illegal has been found about Hunter's business)

What is "being done" to Trump has been caused by his own actions and words. In any other democratic country he would have enjoyed a similar (or worse) fate. BTW, which "other type of corruption" are you talking about? Ah, these pesky things called evidence which always get in the way of a good MAGA story.
