  1. Thais already joined BRICS. I think that the Trump tariffs plus other economic woes in the US will make other nations consider joining BRICS also. Trump talked about puting a 150% tax on Brics folks at one time but he only seems to verbally attack the bad buys while giving them ammunition to do whatever they want against the US. What a negotiator. I see now that Putin demands even more sanction relief before joining in the LIMITED ceasefire.
  2. Yeah, IF and I emphasize IF the congress and IG's do a valid investigation not only of this chat call but how many chat calls like this have occurred since these amateurs took over their posts. But seeing as how they blatantly lied before the Congressional hearing until it forced the magazine to publish even more of the chat and shows just how uncaring and no feelings of wrong doing by this crowd and Trump. These people are a really dangerous crowd for Americans IMHO and since they all have money they couldn't care less than they do now. Even if kicked out, how would they suffer? Not at all. Unless some heads roll then it will only get worse in my opinion. I hope the original classification put on the military strike by the pentagon is revealed so that we can see just how terrible this breadh was. I am sure the local offices of Russia and China are sorry this happened as they will now lose this source. But then again, since Trump is the President, he will probably just continue to pooh pooh it. I did notice that some of the administration said "well Biden and his folks used SIGNAL, but then some lower level folks left over from his administration clarified that no classified was allowed by the Biden folks on this type signal. Scary for sure. Even if the Russians or China saw the info, they most likely would not alert the Huti folks as it would mean that this SIGNAL chat line was compromised and the IDIOTS might begin using a really secure means of communication.
  3. This is totally correct. Since the pollution doesn't normally manifest itself quickly, the illnesses show up as one ages and then it is too late to fix it easily if at all.
  4. I just did my first year report of address to the BOI immigration - less than 10 minutes total including waiting in line at the immigration info booth. super easy just download the form fill it out at home and either take it to the immigration or send it via your wife or an agent or whatever. too easy for sure!!
  5. They might try to claim that and since "they" now run the agencies, it would be interesting if they tried to bring charges against him. I myself think that they would lose in the long run but anything to keep everyone guessing, "What next?"
  6. well not a billionaire but a multimillionaire anway! actually, I think you would lose that bet but since none can do other than opine on this forum I consder your comment as LOST a bet!
  7. But the senate this time had no choice as they had been directed by the leader! to move him onto the team.
  8. I would certainly hope so or would have to put 'er on the ignore list. But so far seem sharper than the average user here which of course isn't that great a complement I guess. but I do mean smarter than the average bear!
  9. I agree - with that final statement - when amateurs play adult games, it is usually fairly obvuous that they are not pros!
  10. All that was necessary about sending troops to Afghanistan was to read Michner's "Caravans" - then look how the Brits and Russian military did and the results of those two. By sending any troops there, was to be sentencing them to death and giving the local non-Taliban-ISIS troops false promises. A total waste of men and money.
  11. I don't think he has to plan any of thes antics, just knowing how amateuristic they all are to government operations, they can screw it up in way too many ways for a plan to work. that is my opinion of the whole Trump team
  12. They even mentioned that in their responses to the press when asked about it!
  13. what little! every day this amateur team does something unheard of before but just because they are a member of Trump's team, it is alright because they are all rich otherwise they would not be even invited to any of the offices!
  14. guess he just got tired of all the other nationalities getting the attention so he thought he would join in too.
  15. no need to hack just down load and listen to the idiots speak
  16. When your coach is actually playing for the opposing team to win, one has to realize why the strange use of amateurs to run the team. It seems more and more obvious to me but that is my opinion and I can only base that on my life experiences and what I see since Trump moved back into the WH. So far, he has proven to me that my opinion is correct so far, yeah it may change but I really don't believe that it will. At least not in my lifetime.
  17. Never, Biden and the generals were blindsided due to poor intel on the Taliban. Trump negotiated the deal with those people with whom anybody with half a brain would know that those folks still live in the stone age and will not be coming out of it in the next AGE that might pass by. I knew from just listening to the generals and troop leaders there and knowing all that had transpired aftre Michner's "Caravans" had not changed the country, neither the Brits, Russians nor Americans with allies, could ever change them. They want their women to be slaves and nothing but slaves, the most recent law passed was that women had to cover their eyes too so that they never met the eyes of any strange male. Having lived in a fundamentaist enclave for a couple of years I fully understand where they are coming from and to where they are going.
  18. I am not going to go over all that I have read since the incident to find particular statements. If you google news casts then they could pop out off many probably as all the neworks have been working this.
  19. Acutally, IMHO you just described the current heads of the US govt - like a little boy and in truth, a bunch of amateurs being given the keys to the our security system. Who has any real idea of what they have already violated nor how much they will continue to violate while they try to determine how their particular agency is supposed to fit into the secure system. To me, SCARY!
  20. WEll, yesterday the leaders of the group said that Goldberg's whole story was a hoax that the discussions mentioned never took place. Of course then they realized that they had been caught but being billionaires, they knew that Trump wouldn't penalize any of them so they said yeah but no US personnel were injured or killed so what if we discussed it in non-secure systems?
  21. EXACTLY! but to the amateurs running the agencies in the US government today, they can only understand the ad that SIGNAL is secure. Every day at least one of the newbies shows just how ignorant they are in their new position as head of an agency based on amount of money one has, not loyalty or experience in a particular field. MHO anyway from the bleachers!
  22. if you really think we have so much NEW equipment and stuff that Vlad doesn't know about, then you can only imagine how much he has that we know nothing about. To provide on an "open" line about ANY military activity is a security violation and those responsible for such NORMALLY would no longer have a security clearance and possibly not even a job. I worked in the secure world and know well what happens to folks doing this kind of activity on an open line and to pooh-pooh it is exactly in the world of Donald Trump who truly believes that money trumps knowledge and Life and that is why that was the only requirement for any of the agency heads and their deputies. All act IMHO like a bunch of amateurs being given the keys to the castle. SCARY! what did you feel about Hillalry and her "secure" email system?
  23. I think SIGNAL is an app that anyone can download, that is why "classified" material at any level is forbidden!
  24. yes the penalties when they do catch the one setting the fires is not worthy enough to make them actually stop doing it! That i my opinion of course and hope the govt can make it worthwhile to have them stop doing i!
  25. I, a former US Embassy Thailand assignee (4 tours) wanted to go with wife to take daughter to college (scholarship and acceptance) and yessir they said NO because she was married to a citizen and therefore probably would not return to Thailand so they said had to process for a green card - during the Afghan exidus - over a 500K backup in immigration with maybe 30-35K processable a month! I am not exaggerating at all! It took 13 months for our approval, and then she would still have to go to the Embassy consulate for an interview. Our daughter said what a joke! and opted to go to Chulalongkorn University, #1 in Thailan and 1/10 the cost compared to what i t would have cost in the US. Getting a B of Arts so acceptable paper and then masters in a Seoul Umiversity. We'll see. But anyway, I have seen others express how easy it was for them or how difficult but for me and former employee there and treated as such just made me mad. Now I note that the Trump team is going shutter a lot of consulates throughout the world - seeing that huge CM building, I wonder if that will get a bit of the chopping block. But for any US citizen wanting to take thei Thai wife, good luck - if she is working in Thailand at a good job, owning the house, cars etc - then possibly but I doubt it. Too many people got them and then had problems. I understand that during the VN war when US soldiers were stationed in Thailand and got married and took the wives to the US, there was a "waiting list at the Thai consulates in the US of 5-6 hundred Thai spouses every day " wanting to come back to Thailand and that began the problem for people still today.
