  1. Spread out over the six-month period the total figure seems a lot lower than I would have guessed. "Vigorous". 5-5-5 I'd be willing to wager that they could round up 700 in one day, if they were incentivized, and were not paid off by the Thai smuggling/employment cartels.
  2. I wonder if he can put up part of his stake in "DJT" (TruthSocial), the total of which is valued at $3.5 Billion today. Trump could score $3.5 billion from Truth Social going public. But tapping the money may be tricky. Former President Donald Trump could soon receive a windfall valued as much as $3.5 billion, with shareholders of a publicly traded funding partner voting Friday on whether to merge with his Trump Media & Technology Group. The vote is taking place about one month after the two companies received regulatory approval to proceed with the long-delayed merger. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-media-dwac-merger-vote-3-5-billion-lock-up-cbs-news-explains/
  3. He also got rid of the tip-jars in Immigration. https://aseannow.com/topic/1059713-the-jokes-on-you-as-surachate-takes-over-immigration-promising-no-tip-department/
  4. "Surveil"? Time to resurrect the tourist tracking scheme? https://aseannow.com/topic/1189954-thailand-to-track-tourists-with-digital-wristbands/ If only the PM showed such vigor in tackling the PM2.5 issue.
  5. Of course trump is partners with a Las Vegas casino owner. Why am I not shocked? Maybe Phil Ruffin will offer to "help out" with this bond? Trump tax records expose more than $21 million in highly unusual payments from the Las Vegas hotel he owns, an engineered windfall in 2016 as campaign funds dwindled Donald J. Trump needed money. His “self-funded” presidential campaign was short on funds, and he was struggling to win over leery Republican donors. His golf courses and the hotel he would soon open in the Old Post Office in Washington were eating away at what cash he had left on hand, his tax records show. And the president’s long-hidden tax records, obtained by The New York Times, also reveal this: how he engineered a sudden financial windfall — more than $21 million in what experts describe as highly unusual one-off payments from the Las Vegas hotel he owns with his friend Phil Ruffin, the casino mogul. https://www.chicagotribune.com/2020/10/09/trump-tax-records-expose-more-than-21-million-in-highly-unusual-payments-from-the-las-vegas-hotel-he-owns-an-engineered-windfall-in-2016-as-campaign-funds-dwindled/

  7. New York attorney general disputes Trump's claim that he can't secure $464 million to post bond A lawyer for New York Attorney General Letitia James on Wednesday disputed former President Donald Trump's claim that he can't secure more than $460 million needed to post bond and appeal the civil fraud ruling against him, writing in a filing that the court should deny Trump's "extraordinary request" to appeal without posting the full amount. In his response on Wednesday, Dennis Fan, a senior assistant solicitor general for the state, called Trump's filing "procedurally improper" and said the court should disregard it. He wrote that Trump's issues should have been raised in an earlier filing, and could have been, since "their efforts to obtain that bond began before their stay motion was filed and indeed before judgment was even entered." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-fraud-judgment-bond-new-york-attorney-general/ [PROPOSED] AFFIRMATION IN SURREPLY TO MOTION FOR A STAY PENDING APPEAL https://eddsa.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/public/2024_01134_PEOPLE_OF_THE_STATE_OF_v_PEOPLE_OF_THE_STATE_OF_EXHIBIT_S__14.pdf
  8. Who ordered the Code Red? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuF7kcSFkBM
  9. I am not a tax attorney, but this might trigger the Gift Tax?
  10. and? What are you suggesting? That the provenance of the oil on these ships is challenging to determine?
  11. ^ Quickly. She said maybe, within 30 days. Mar-a-lago, which she suggested, has quite a few stipulations re: use. I don't think it could be razed and redeveloped.
  12. Divining Rod would be my guess.
  13. Have tried to figure out what's going on with this one... Can anyone tell me what the "uncomfortable truth" is?
  14. We've survived 289 years without debating Presidential Immunity. It's baked into our DNA as U.S. Citizens. The President is not a King or Queen. The President is not above the Law. I'm shocked the figure isn't closer to 90%. The very idea of the power and the right of the people to establish government presupposes the duty of every individual to obey the established government. https://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/washing.asp
  15. Yes, we call it "The Electoral College".
  16. Estimates are that fewer than 15% of sexual assaults get reported here, for a variety of reasons. https://th.boell.org/en/2022/10/20/sexual-and-gender-violence-thailand
  17. Meh. They'll join the Aryan gang, and have protection. Hope they like face tattoos.
  18. 70%! Wow. And people say the country is divided. QUESTION PRESENTED Whether and if so to what extent does a former President enjoy presidential immunity from criminal prosecution for conduct alleged to involve official acts during his tenure in office. https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23A745/300410/20240212154110541_2024-02-12 - US v.

  19. Netanyahu seems pretty unpopular in Israel. Only 15% of Israelis want Netanyahu to keep job after Gaza war, poll finds JERUSALEM, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Only 15% of Israelis want Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stay in office after the war on Hamas in Gaza ends, though many more still support his strategy of crushing the militants in the Palestinian enclave, according to a poll published on Tuesday. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/only-15-israelis-want-netanyahu-keep-job-after-gaza-war-poll-finds-2024-01-02/ I wonder what trump thinks about Israeli citizens "hating themselves"?
  20. given that Thailand is planning to legalize surrogacy services. https://aseannow.com/topic/1321275-thailand-drafts-landmark-law-opening-surrogacy-services-to-foreign-couples/ Thailand plans to legalise surrogacy for foreign couples https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/thailand-plans-legalise-surrogacy-foreign-couples-2024-03-01/#:~:text=BANGKOK%2C March 1 (Reuters),health official said on Friday.
  21. What does this say about her "fan base"?
  22. And where it originated. But the larger potential problem is that bad weather whips up and one, or all five, go down creating an environmental issue.
  23. Oratory worthy of Clarence Darrow. Trump should hire you as his lawyer.
  24. Barely enough to keep the country running for a few days.
