  1. A judge fines Trump and his lawyer for a 'frivolous' suit against his political foes The ruling required Trump and his attorney, Alina Habba, to pay nearly $938,000 to the defendants in the case. https://www.npr.org/2023/01/20/1150298957/donald-trump-frivolous-lawsuit-fine-alina-habba-clinton-comey-middlebrooks Is she the one who forgot to ask for a jury trial in the NY fraud case? Personally, I'd choose a lawyer based on their ability rather than their looks. But then there's trump.
  2. If these contain any THC, and they likely do not, it is below 0.2%. Now the amount of sugar and caffeine in these drinks should probably be illegal.
  3. How apropos, he's got a bridge to sell.
  4. Another "floater". Inter-voke school violence and rivalries are actually stoked by the powers that be. These gangs have served as a para-military force in previous "conflicts" between the "government" and the uppity plebes. "Civics" are already taught in Thai schools, it's called "prostration".
  5. November 8, 2016 Nov 8, 2016 BE — Hillary Clinton has an 85% chance to win. New York Time poll. 538 had it a bit closer... https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/
  6. Vivek made a splash early on but his trajectory since that first debate has been down, straight down. Most Republicans hate the guy. Heck, everyone hates the guy, except obviously the op. His Favorability ratings have been underwater since May. Might trump choose him as a running mate? Sure. Will he? No. trump can probably win with a serial killer as a running mate.
  7. Seems like the vocational school gang rivalries are back to pre-pandemic levels.
  8. The Italian "experiment" ended in 2022, and was a complete failure. According to the BBC, the case that TAT mentioned about Italy is an agreement between China and Italy in 2015 that let Chinese police officers take part in joint patrols with Italian counterparts in Rome, Milan, Naples, and other centres in a bid to make Chinese tourists feel safe during the peak tourism period. Chinese media CGTN also reported that Chinese police officers went to Italy to carry out joint patrols in May 2016 and June 2017. However, the joint patrols were “suspended” in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, and in December 2022, Italy has stopped this kind of operation after reports that Beijing ran police-like operations abroad. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2023/11/13/thai-government-denies-requesting-chinese-police-joint-patrols/
  9. The Appointment "window" is + 30 days. There are just a handful of ret/marriage extension slots per day. I'd book a slot at 00:01 on the first day your target date is available.
  10. Incoherent? Even on his best day Srettha barely rises to that level. IMO he did a rather poor job pitching this idiotic idea last week. And the powers that be are clearly all lined up against this, and the courts, Parliament, and various corruption bodies haven't chimed in. Choke this one in the crib, and move on. No need to squander what little political capital he has on this lame-brained idea.
  11. This idiotic idea has been attributed to an unnamed (by their choice) Srettha government "official". The PM needs to walk this back ASAP.
  12. I think this idiotic "idea" is DOA. Thankfully. Will be put down to some "misunderstanding" by the globe-trotting PM. Top cop rejects presence of Chinese police in Thailand he national police commissioner has opposed the concept of inviting Chinese police to patrol with their Thai counterparts, ostensibly to increase the safety of Chinese tourists. Pol Gen Torsak Sukvimol said the idea could not be implemented because it involves national security, adding “I disagree with the idea as it would infringe upon Thailand’s sovereignty. Thai police are quite capable of taking care of Thai people as well as tourists.” He also denied reports that it was the Royal Thai Police’s idea to conduct the joint patrols, explaining that “Reports that it was the Thai police’s initiative may have been a misunderstanding. What we have proposed is the setting up of a coordination centre with China, so that, when there are crimes related to China, we could exchange information about suspects and cases,” he said. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/top-cop-rejects-presence-of-chinese-police-in-thailand/

  15. You can skim the pinned topic for recent reports. Definitely getting better, with reports of 10, 7, and even 4 days turn-around. Whatever issue they had seems to have been addressed.
  16. Fairly easy to compare... Get a quote from WISE https://wise.com/us/send-money/send-money-to-thailand 500 USD = 17,573.20 Compare it to the Visa rate (I assume you are using a Visa debit card, if not compare to MC) https://usa.visa.com/support/consumer/travel-support/exchange-rate-calculator.html 17573.20 THB = 496.137279 USD you can add in the local fee of 150 ~ 220 THB, and then rebate it. WISE allows for larger transfers, your card may have a transaction or daily limit. WISE can be used to ret ext/inc; ATM withdrawals cannot.
  17. You've got to love how some seem to get around the ban on marketing beer on social media. While others, yea you, over there, the MovrForward MP, yea I'm talking about you, seem to be prosecuted. Odd justice system.
  18. Early on in this scandal, the police were pushing back, along with quite a few members here, saying this did not happen, or that Ms. An was guilty, or lying, or exaggerating. RTP spokesman says "trust us" not social media in Taiwanese actress extortion case; cops may fly to Taiwan today https://aseannow.com/topic/1284911-rtp-spokesman-says-trust-us-not-social-media-in-taiwanese-actress-extortion-case-cops-may-fly-to-taiwan-today/
  19. Nothing to worry about as the Minister for Agriculture and Cooperatives of Thailand, Capt. Thamanat Prompow, will oversee this scheme.
  20. 55 Billion? Heck Yingluck only blew 35 B, and she got a five-year jail term. I think there have been rice support schemes for ~ fifty years, good way to keep Somchai down on the farm. "Sixteen tons and what do you get, another day older and deeper in debt." To ensure farmers have price incentive to reclaim their mortgaged rice, the program – which began nearly 50 years ago – is supposed to secure the rice at a lower-than-market price, such as 80 percent or 90 percent of market value. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2017/08/24/faq-rice-program-yingluck-trial-explained/

  22. PM to Showcase Two Months of Govt Achievements This sounds like the beginning of one of those "Shortest books ever written..." jokes. I'm surprised he doesn't need to form a committee to talk about which achievements will be "showcased".
