  1. Two wives, one husband? And they are worried he has a third? Is this normal?
  2. Reporting the last 5 days is meant to show that you really changed America or what? What does a 5-day report actually do to help understand one's job?
  3. Seems that a government should not hide what it is legally allowed to do - unless the government knows that it is sending people to their deaths. Now, the cat is out of the bag. Shame.
  4. Rivers are seen as a toilet for many Thais. Vietnam no better. I don't believe they even knew they were doing wrong.
  5. Thoughts and prayers. Vaccines don't kill people, people kill people.
  6. They definitely need a maid.
  7. Wouldn't they have found cable severing and deep-sea diving equipment on board?
  8. Being willing to go to prison for your beliefs is an admirable quality.
  9. BP has killed people in the past and destroyed pristine water. What is there to support?
  10. Why does every discussion end in name calling on AN?
  11. Just wander any Thai market and there's no end of phalluses. Why go to Stonehenge?
  12. America entered a long war in Vietnam because it feared the domino effect of Asia becoming Communist. Thailand was its red line. Now, the west sees that Russia wants to own its former East European colonies and America wants to appease Russia. Ukraine was the red line, now it's like a buffet of eat all you can. I worry that we are underestimating Russia.
  13. When I first came to Thailand, the Communist insurgency caused people to worry about going into the countryside. Tourists were worried about going into rural areas. That insurgency was paid for by the Chinese. Now it's a tourism insurgency that doesn't benefit Thai people as much as the TAT seems to think.
  14. Some here assuming he is already guilty. Let the legal system take its course. If there is hard evidence, show it by all means.
  15. I don't think the Democratic Party wants to have everlasting wars, but they see the point of having the Ukraine as a buffer to curb Russia's expansionism. Should Putin not be deterred, he becomes a serious threat to Europe. As the US and EU have the largest bilateral trade and investment relationship in the world, the US economy would be negatively impacted.
  16. At that age, the Science Museum's children's section is still fun. The Natural History Museum has animatronic dinosaurs these days. I also enjoyed the London Dungeon, below Waterloo Station.
  17. Where to keep saving safely when the government is determined to create more debtors? Banks interest so low it is no longer a place to keep money. Stock Exchange still poor.
  18. Funny that the FBI is corrupt but not the NY Police department. The New York City Police Department (NYPD) experienced corruption scandals in the 1990s, including the Dirty Thirty and the conviction of Harry Gross.
  19. I for one thought Some Like it Hot was hilarious.
  20. Which part? That he accused European leaders of suppressing free speech? Or that he said, "In Britain, and across Europe, free speech, I fear, is in retreat."? Did you actually read the speech or watch the video?
  21. Who else is bored of the whining left complaining about stories of Trump lying? By the end of his first term, Trump had accumulated 30,573 untruths during his presidency — averaging about 21 erroneous claims a day. https://docs.house.gov/meetings/FD/FD00/20240515/117301/HHRG-118-FD00-20240515-SD003.pdf FACT FOCUS: A Look at False and Misleading Claims Made by Trump During His First Week Back in Office https://www.usnews.com/news/us/articles/2025-01-24/fact-focus-a-look-at-false-and-misleading-claims-made-by-trump-during-his-first-week-back-in-office He lies. So what? Does it matter that the leader of the free world lies? No one cares. Lie on Bone Spurs. No one cares.

  23. Just read his speech. https://foreignpolicy.com/2025/02/18/vance-speech-munich-full-text-read-transcript-europe/
