This dufus can say what he wants, the more he says the tighter the noose becomes.

It matters NOT what the aussie victim did or didn't do, this US/mexican tuff guy is in a world of hurt now and will definitely spend some glorious time behind the pipes in one of the many fine penal institutions on offer in the wasteland referred to as Thailand. May acupuncture of your dirt-shute be enjoyable.

"Also to say there hasn't been a single indictment related to collusion so far.... that's also a bit stretchy". Oh, there have been criminal charges & convictions resulting from the Muller witch-hunt as follows:

1. Papadopoulos convicted of lying to the FBI
2. Michael Flynn convicted of lying to the FBI
3. Paul Manafort charged with money laundering, conspiracy, tax fraud and failure to disclose his lobbying in the U.S. on behalf of foreign governments.
4. Rick Gates: charged with conspiracy, money laundering, failing to register as a foreign agent as well as making false statements to investigators in the special counsel investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign. The indictment says Gates used money from the illicit accounts to pay for his mortgage, his children's tuition and interior decorating of his Virginia residence.

Looks like a real big russian collusion conspiracy right! The bigger conspiracy is Clinton paying for the bogus trump dossier and the FBI lying to the FISC to get the surveillance warrant on Page.

Trump is the President of the USA. yet his own lawyers are saying he is untrustworthy to testify in own defense. So exactly what is wrong with being charged for perjury should he be caught in a deliberate lie when being investigated for being complicit with assisting a hostile foreign power or obstruction of justice?

it's called a "fishing expedition", and Feds are expert at finding ANYTHING about ANYONE. The less you say, the better! This applies to you as well. Trump and others can wait out for the next few months, maybe even years before the politically motivated witch hunt ends and a finding is issued. But, for the past 2 years this russsian collusion investigation drama has gone nowhere except to expose the abuses of the FBI, DOJ and who knows who else!

Dumb or smart, ANY lawyer would advise exactly that~ "keep your mouth shut". That is plain  ole good advise. It goes to preventing investigators attempts to promote "white lies" by the subject, so they can at least find so ANYTHING to charge them with in the absence of proof of a crime. Feds love charging folks for lying to a federal prosecutor. Just ask Papandapolous. So, if we cant get em for "hookin up with Putin", we'll get him on some false statement made to a fed.investigator. Thats how it works...normally. Happy now?

"Laughing stock": nothing new here.

The research leading to the dossier was initially funded by a Republican.  The DNC then funded additional research, but Hillary was not part of it.  Parts of the dossier that had been verified by the intelligence community using other sources were used to justify the FISA warrant.  The Republican memo claims that the political origins of the dossier were not sufficiently explained to the FISA judge.  Even if this is true, it is unlikely it would have prevented the approval of the warrant.

 

In other words, this memo is the biggest nothing burger to date.

Hillary seems to be involved in everything dodgy while losing to Trump.

"Steele was paid over $160,000 by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary for America (Clinton campaign) for his dossier. Neither the initial application in October 2016, nor any of the renewals, disclose or reference the role of the DNC, Clinton campaign, or any party/campaign in funding Steele’s efforts, even though the political origins of the Steele dossier were then known to senior DOJ and FBI officials."

It seems you need help, just ask, perhaps you can learn something. Take a look around you, see what you are NOT seeing. It's not so difficult.

According to the head of the FBI' s counterintelligence division, Assistant Director Bill Priestap, corroboration of the Steele dossier was in its "infancy" at the time of the initial Page FISA application. After Steele was terminated, a source validation report conducted by an independent unit within FBI assessed Steele's reporting as only minimally corroborated.  Yet, in early January 2017, Director Corney briefed President-elect Trump on a summary of the Steele dossier, even though it was-according to his June 2017 testimony-"salacious and unverified." While the FISA application relied on Steele's
past record of credible reporting on other unrelated matters, it ignored or concealed his anti-Trump financial and ideological motivations. Furthermore, Deputy Director McCabe testified before the Committee in December 2017 that no surveillance warrant would have been sought from the FISC without the Steele dossier information

There's a new "teflon Don" in town now...Washington town that is.

Hillary/DNC PAYING for the steel dossier, the damn stupid FBI use it for a FISA warrant (w/o stating the salient details in the application).

If anyone needs vindication, it is Clinton, Comey, FBI, DOJ, etc. Rosenstein keeps his job for now, but Comey is EXPOSED big time.

Good on them, they caught with their pants down on this one.

What do you expect for 500,000 THB??

Can think of better ways to buy grief.

Since you don't know <deleted>, go to water, always, and "slip" away, same as the training!

Thai court should issue arrest warrants for that red bull Boss punk shit kid as well. Selective prosecution at it's finest.

If you think what appears on the surface is what is actually happening in Thailand you must be smoking some of Columbia's finest. Demonstrating lawyers don't have much sway with a mafia run city hall. Here is the wiki on the ex-mayor's father.

All bets were then off though when the jaunta too over. Anybody that thinks they know what truly went on with this building can think again. 

It's Colombia, unless you are referring to Br. Columbia, where, yes, the best MJ is now produced. Get your facts straight. Case closed.

why would ANYONE come to thailand to attend school, study, etc, unless the ulterior motive is to obtain a visa.

Case closed.

I think the headline is confusing: red plates are not going to be banned, no---they are only be valid for 30 days now??

Total chaos and confusion is the norm as usual.

I was told that the red plates can only be converted to permanent plates when the car dealership pays for the vehicle in full and all sales taxes.

"talk to my lawyer"

"plead the 5th"

Mueller, FBI, Justice Dept, Spec. council....all a bunch of crooked liars on a trump witch-hunt cuz he won the election.

Pathetic!

How do you know the Russian rented this motorcycle?

Both are in the wrong in this case but the Thai is more wrong simply by overreacting and committing an unjustified assault inflicting bodily harm.

Jails in the west are full of losers like this unruly Thai.

"The requirement is seen as helping to reduce the burden on Thai hospitals who are being forced to treat an increasing number of uninsured foreigners."

Being uninsured is irrelevant, pay in cash or the hospital will not provide treatment. It's a really simple concept; pay as you go.

Private hospitals in Thailand are profit based: no cash = no service.

Unless the article/report alludes to emergency treatment for accident victims who after a recovery or not, lack funds to pay the costs?

What exactly is "sports crime"?

Why is when you go into 7/11 you can buy 1 item for 80 baht but if you buy two they don't ask you for 200 baht.?

Probably because the bar code reader scans and then displays the price on a screen for all to see.

Trump is unprepared for everything which requires maturity and knowledge. However, he's adept at swindling loans, ripping people off, denigrating everyone who doesn't praise him, and going bankrupt (which he will do to the US, similar to Kansas).

hmm, no, he knows nothing about business, deals, money, etc...oh, and how many hotels, airplanes, real estate do you own?/
