  1. Now, guess who has really a problem with China? Trump campaign advisor who allegedly saw classified map works for China lobbying firm https://nypost.com/2023/06/29/trump-aide-who-allegedly-saw-classified-map-works-for-lobbying-firm-that-serves-china/ "According to a 37-count indictment brought earlier this month by special counsel Jack Smith, a “PAC representative” — reportedly Wiles — visited the 77-year-old ex-president at his Bedminster, NJ, golf club in August or September 2021 and was improperly shown a classified map of a foreign nation."
  2. It seems there is another condition: "The third reading also requires a majority vote of the parliament. However, that majority must also include one-third of the Senate, and 20 percent of MPs from all political parties which do not hold positions as cabinet members, Speaker of House of Representatives, or Deputy Speaker of House of Representatives." https://prachataienglish.com/node/9086 I am not sure how to interpret this other condition, as it is translated in English from the original version. Is it 20% of all MPs, or is it 20% of MPs in each party?
  3. But more in some countries than others....
  4. Sending asylum seekers to Rwanda! What could go wrong? ????
  5. And what was illegal about the deal between CEFC and Hunter and his partners?
  6. Please stop complaining about something which did not happen. Your post was fully quoted and not edited. I just highlighted the convenient use of "could".
  7. Actually, in their army clan, Prawit us Prayut's boss.
  8. Interesting In the letter, Lowell questions why Republicans circulated reportedly fake images of the alleged WhatsApp messages involving Hunter...... "The screen-grab images you posted are not real and contain myriad of issues," Lowell explained, adding that the alleged WhatsApp messages did not resemble the platform and appeared altered. "[B]oth images portray the message in a blue bubble, when WhatsApp messages are in green; one image super-imposed the Chinese flag for the contact ID," Lowell described. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/hunter-bidens-lawyer-explodes-ways-means-committee-obsession-doj-investigation After Jim Jordan caught lying about a testimony, who would be surprised?
  9. Lol! It took a year because initially, only the NYPost got a copy. Complain to Giuliani about it.
  10. "EVERYONE must be held equal under one law". We can at least agree on that. There's no reason why Trump should be exempted because he is a former president and also a presidential candidate. The law applies to anyone, including him!
  11. My point was that his old friend (not sure he's still a friend, but he was), is certainly no friend of MFP and would not do anything to help MFP.
  12. Same as the purpose of being appointed......
  13. Strange theory. I don't see what the relation between Thaksin's old friend and MFP could be.
  14. Well, considering that they may still believe that there had been massive fraud during the 2020 elections.....it's not surprising at all.
  15. What? Biden tried to overturn elections, incited to storm the Capitol, and made a perfect call asking to find him 11,000 votes, and nobody told me? Ah! these damned MSM never talked about it! ????
  16. Fun spoiler again sorry! Please remember the basic principle of Thai politics: appointed people appoint each other. So, according to the Constitution (constitution which cannot be changed without approval of 2/3 of the appointed Senate), the next batch of Senators will be selected by panels and committees. These committees are dominated, by definition in the constitution, by appointed people (such as appointed heads of agencies, all appointed or vetted by the junta). Moreover, who will appoint the committee members? The EC (appointed or vetted by the Junta) You may think, OK, let's be patient and wait for changes in the EC! But who will select or approve the new EC members? The Senate! And around it goes!
  17. Sorry to play the fun spoiler again, but in order to amend the constitution, the approval of 2/3 of Senators is required.
  18. The U.S. Is well above other countries for post-epidemic GDP growth. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn02784/
  19. Old Joe is really hopeless!???? First-quarter economic growth was actually 2%, up from 1.3% first reported in major GDP revision And also: A separate report Thursday from the Labor Department pointed showed that initial jobless claims fell to 239,000 for the week ended June 24. That was a decline of 26,000 from the previous week and well below the estimate for 264,000. https://www.cnbc.com/2023/06/29/first-quarter-economic-growth-was-actually-2percent-up-from-1point3percent-first-reported-in-major-gdp-revision.html
  20. Debunked? ???? Mueller report sheds new light on how the Russians hacked the DNC and the Clinton campaign https://techcrunch.com/2019/04/18/mueller-clinton-arizona-hack/ No ‘Hoax’: Bipartisan Senate Report Confirms Russian 2016 Role, Putin Ordered DNC Hack, More https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackbrewster/2020/08/18/putin-ordered-dnc-hack-bipartisan-senate-report-confirms/?sh=186e234ddaec Are you confusing with another debunked theory? You know, " the server is in Ukraine", "Crowdstrike is a Ukrainian company"....
