  1. Yeah for sure as she just steered govt contracts to her husband's business. IMHO they are almost all just like that no matter their party affiliation. Works around the world too.
  2. Spider, insider trading for his friends and family wouldn't work without the tariff announcements, market reactions, test the waters with a fake 90-day pause, get all prepared for insider trading when he announced the actual 90-day pause. MO of course that so many in the US govt do get rich off of insider trading and that is why they can't get a bill outlawing it!
  3. just so that they make a nice throne for him to oversee his kingdom - he truly believes he is a king now that the Supreme Court ruled that he can not be charged for any presidential action. So, first off lets destroy the US economy and that of our allies! I finally noticed many news clips where the folks too are wondering how much insider trading went into the latest retraction. All criminals IMHO and if they win of course THEY will be writing the history books! I wonder if all the idiots who voted for him still believe every lie that he tells.
  4. I have reading glasses bought from Villamart. But originally 40 years ago when I first needed glasses for reading I paid for the prescription and glasses in the US and it was a tad expensive. Then I learned about macular degeneration and what Lutein can do for that - after taking it for 2 months, I didn't need my glasses for reading anymore. I do realize right now that both my eyes are not equal so if I need reading glasses again i will go get a prescription and glasses made for my two different eyes. At 78, I can still read some without glasses, depending completely on the lighting but for computer use with a lot of reading I do wear reading glasses. I know I could increase the size of text on the computer but would rather just keep it like it is.
  5. Well if they had chosen the F16's then thailand would have been ahead , even with jus this deal it seems that Thailand would be close to making the gap pretty small in their trade with the US. IMO
  6. Well there have been several news clips of the govt indicating how much money will be spent/garnered during this "celebration" so wonder who that will be. Airports are reported preparing for the influx of all the tourists for this splashing activity. At least the average Thais really seem to enjoy this activity when they can squirt ice water at the farangs with no backlash!
  7. Yeah, especially since he wants the tariffs to succeed so that he can get the Congress to pass a tax break for the very rich! typical paying back those funds that the billionaires gave to his campaign chest during this run for president! If this doesn't wake up the Magaites, then nothing will until they are gone for good. MHO anyway.
  8. No doubt in my mind, check the rich in the Congress, then check their salaries and one can easily see that they have something going on the side! IMHO anyway Pelosi 248 million, easy to check, google 10 richest of US Congress.. Says Pelosi husband a contractor - yeah with govt contracts probably steered his way by wife's influence IMHO too.
  9. sorta like every other line out of his mouth - a lie - he was specifically queried about a 90-day break in the tariffs and said definitely not! He has no real plan, just shooting from the hip so to speak and in no way caring what damage he does to not only the US but many countries around the world. IMHO and I am anti-democrat but also no fan of Trump.
  10. Well if you quote Trump, tariffs will result in gold for the citizens' bank accounts when in reality it will likely increase inflation, prices of almost everything, and any govt savings seen will go for tax cuts for the rich and this whole program may cause a recession. Who is affected in a recession? those with less money while the rich are not affected at all. Will this result in factories of 1800 or 1920 or 1960? who in their right mind that has billions to sink into building a factory in the US in the next couple of years anyway would even consider such activity? IMHO thisis the typical crap from the MAGA folks that believe every word from Trump. But, I respect the fact that your opinion is different from mine and I do wish you luck and hope you and Trump are correct as it would allow me to have hope for the future of the US. I did not like Biden ever, long before he was Pres, and I do not feel that Harris would even come close to being able to handle the job of president, and I also feel that Trump is way out of his league too. At my age, I am just an impotent bystander watching idiots playing politics with my government.
  11. well just a short period ago they had a choice between approved govt contracts for either Swedish planes or f16's from the US for the Thai AF. hindsight helps of course though the Thais don't reall need either IMHO. After all who would attack Thailand except tourists anyway?
  12. and that is why 42% of American citizens are considered to be OBESE, diabetics everywhere! But if that is your choice your health will suffer too IMHO
  13. Dr. William Li, Harvard trained Heart specialist and diet-disease researcher has written a couple of books on this subject: He has a list of "grand slammers" which should be included in one's diet regularly: Fruits - Apple, Pear, Blueberries, strawberries, Watermelon Veggies - Carrots, Kale BokChoy Mushrooms Chilipeppers Nuts/Legumes - Walnuts, White beans, lentils, Chickpeas Seafood - Shrimp, Mussels, Sea scallops, Sea Bass Sweets - Dark chocolate Beverages - Soy Milk, Matcha tea, Black tea, Coffee Oils - Extra Virgin Olive Oil There are some additional but these were on his first chart put out after the books which contain additional info on healthy foods to fight disease of all types!
  14. Suggest you see the link for a list of nutritionately complete foods https://www.hollandbarrett.com/the-health-hub/food-drink/guide-nutritionally-complete-food/
  15. You mention that something needs to be done about the US debt seeming to agree to Trump's tariff plan - the only thing he is planning for that is the income generated from his plan working (which I truly doubt) would pay for the tax break for the billionaires and their corporations, and not passed on to Joe Citizen. who seems to be headed for a recession caused by Trump and who can least afford to survive, unlike the rich. MO and agree that the rest of the world will not be so rosy if the US falters totally also IMHO.
  16. guess that is why the experts jumped from 25 to 40% and now to 60% chance of having a recession in the US when Biden left, the economy was booming compared to the rest of the world and I am and have forever been against all democrats and their policies. IMHO a scary situation for many Americans, especially the old wondering if SS, Medicare and Medicaid will be negatively affected by the Trump/ELON policies. Maybe that far-right conspiracy theorist could be consulted and help change Trump's mind.
  17. At CM immigration, one year extension get signed Passport back same day, sometimes if near lunch time have to come back after lunch to pick up. That was up to last year anyway.
  18. And don't forget most American kids necessarily had to have a measles shot before going to school. Once that stopped it opened up for measles. Just like polio eradicarted in most of the world by the SALK vaccine, continues to be in the world because of some tribal folks in the Middle East/Asia desert type refusing to get ANY vaccines.
  19. Yessir, now that the Supreme Court has given Trump a pass on any crime committed during his presidency, he can continue to appoint the crazies to any agency and we have already seen how ignorant they are of the basic laws of running a nation but because they are rich, Trump just wants them to contribute monies to him via what he calls his election candicy chest. Just like his businesses that failed, he and his family didn't lose money, only his investors lost out and they were/are rich so they didn't really suffer. They should all be punished together IMHO. Now, we see just what a total idion RFK is in being named as the US health Secretary! I can only imagine what will follow over the next couple of years, possibly if a COVID-like disease were to appear, he would recomment injecting bleach for a cure.
  20. And in this crazy world in which we find ourselves, in the future wait until a trans wins the Miss American Beauty contest. I realize in this country anything goes too but I still believe in two genders only and will never change my mind for sure.
  21. Well, since "she" was previously on the real men's team, practicing with men would give "her" an advantage beside most likely being stronger. Obviously IMHO "she" wasn't a stand out on the men's team so figured "she" could do better against real female opponents. IMHO just not fair especially since it has been proven that the average man is stronger than the average woman. Biology says there are two genders, male and female. I realize now that woke is alive and strong, some are being convinced their minds are stuck in the wrong gender body. After knowing this for 78+ years, No way am I going to change my OPINION.
  22. And working so closely with Trump what would you expect him to say. Especially after Trump said "losers are weak people"
  23. Especially because previously he had been on the men's fencing team - What a joke the woke society has created and kudos to the women who fight against this practice!
  24. what did you miss in the Biden admin with Harris responsible for the open border situation with illegals pouring in more in the US than anywhere
