  1. For not getting the business.....but called, you know, a threat to national security (no further information given). They are already looking at Thailand as a Currency manipulator.
  2. A New York Post article ... It is not even news, it is an opinion about the news. Opinions from right wing blowhards.
  3. He is on point with his snark, his insults, rants & tag line lies. That is his strength. However he is being advised to try and do real 'issues' by staff and fellow repubs .. ... Trump doing the economy, a stand up routine about inflation & tic tac containers. Even his fans were bored & confused. He has to stay with the snark, venom, the racism & lies. There is no way he can win with issues. Go with what you know.
  4. Understand this is old fake news, and you're very busy crafting new fake news. However real news out of the US this last weekend has Trump backtracking on the one and only debate with Harris he agreed to. Looks like he is setting the ground work for jumping ship on that. Understandable given his recent incoherent tangents, and inability to debate discuss REAL issues. Might as well nix that and stay with name calling, lies & racist mysogynist attacks, which has always been Donalds strong suit. Stay with what you know.
  5. Thailand was not occupied by Japan in WWII. They were Japan's ally. Thailand occupied and was set to absorb, the Shan States section of Burma, today's Myanmar. They also occupied and were again set to absorb the western part of Cambodia, into Thailand. These territorial gains were the rewards of being Japan's ally in the war.
  6. I just completed this quiz. My Score 70/100 My Time 179 seconds  
  7. Another NYP - New York Post article, that no one but a Trumper would believe.
  8. China had ICBM's deployed by the late 70's. China has had the capability to obliterate the US for almost fifty years & eight US Presidents. BTW, Likely S Korea will go nuke by the end of this decade. Given political instability in the US (Trump) they want have their own little radioactive pile a death. N. Korea is next door & shakes their nukes a bit much. Hey, perhaps China, can play peacemaker for the Koreas ... ... or not.
  9. Good to see a Bob Scott byline. A premier albino primate, churning out content about Thailand topics. Bravo
  10. Tough man Donald Trump, when Turkish leader Erdogan gave him a call, & asked him to betray the Kurds. One of the few US allies during the whole of the WMD Iraq invasion disaster, albeit that poochscrew by a previous Republican president. Sure Turkey had been tacitly allowing ISIS to ship oil, had been funneling refugees through the country to send them on into the EU. Still Donald Trump never met a authoritarian psycho strong man he did not like. When Erdogan called, he jumped & obeyed. Erdogan got all he wanted plus a boot licking. That is setting the bar extremely low for anyone, let alone a person with a spine.
  11. The red are known as rod daeng. Cynical opinion is they call them baht buses in this article, instead of rod daeng, as locals & tourists detest the *&#$ ers. They were useful once. However the city should get a real bus system. BTW Rod daeng drivers and the Pu-Yai owners behind them have stopped at least two attempts to do so in the last 20 years.
  12. It is a farce but Disney is trying to increase litigation costs, as the payout is only 50K, it may not be worth it to proceed, as lawyer fees will eat a lot of that even if they win. . It should be noted the plaintiffs have already been paid by the Restaraunt/Pubs insurance company. And you can bet it was a BIG payout. Theya re just trying to pump Disney for an additional 50K. Disney is the landlord, nothing to do with the Pub, staff, training, allergy protocols, etc. However a big name, with deep pockets ... Always the money, always.
  13. Is not Disney doing this to increase potential litigation costs if they really want to go forward with this? Its is only a 50K pay out. Lawyers will eat up a lot of that, even if a joke of a case. It should be noted that Disney is just the landord. They had nothing to do The Pub, its staff, training, allergy protocols etc. The plaintiffs are just trying to get a little cream on top of their payout by putting Disney on the spot& in the news. The Raglan Road Irish Pubs's insurance company has already settled. I can't imagine anything less than 7 figure amount and not in baht.
  14. Yeah twenty years. For all the cooing from the cheap seats about puppet master, two decades is a long time to wait, & yeah he has enemies. But they view the MFP as a bigger threat so. Still I don't think the T man wanted PM Srettha dumped like that. This is a power response, you want to play that way, here is what I got ... full house. Lets see if you can top that.
  15. Disney is vile ... maybe. They probably should settle if it is small as 50K but ... "The companys staff" The Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant, where the food poisoning occurred is owned by two businessman from Dublin Ireland. The restaurant and owners are directly responsible for food preparation and allergy guidelines. Of course they have been sued. Disney is not the owner of that Pub/Restaurant, has nothing to do with the staff, the training or allergy food guidelines etc. They are the landowner, that is all. They do make sure all business have insurance for incidents exactly like this. This lawsuit & is a secondary, just trying to mine more money. Not a Disney fan, but you can assume Raglan Road Irish Pubs Insurance has already provided a payout for the claim, a significant payout.
  16. Yes, but they knocked down his proxy. They wanted to remind him who was boss, just in case he gets too full of himself ... again.
  17. The Deep State brings the T Man back to spike the MFP's win, then turns on him. You gotta admire the audacity of their double dealing deceit.
  18. Another judicial coup, and what fun! The Deep state smacks down the T man's proxy after putting MFParty down for the count. All in a weeks work. That's a power move. Thankfully I have a large & strong cup of coffee this morning. I'm going to need it. BTW, our offensive line is coming along, but that defense is going to tear helI off the cross this season.
  19. A chance to be righteously angered cannot be ignored. Righteous outrage being a critical element in Thai culture.
  20. WSJ - Wall Street Journal. Owned by Murdoch. It used to be a right wing, old school moderate Republican business paper. Looks like they got the notice; mound of sound is in trouble, need to step up & start pumping. Good to see they're well on their way to full propaganda outlet like FOX & RT.
  21. He adlibs as it a struggle for Donald to read the teleprompter or anything else. He barely reads at a 6th grade level. Donald does work at it, who can forget his valiant sounding out of Yo-Semite, for Yosemite Park. If The Donald did not adlib, it would be painfully obvious how near to a functional illiterate he really is. Adlibbing can be dangerous though. Trump can veer off unexpectedly. Like the crazy weird rant attacking Governor Kemp at the Atlanta rally last week. Expect more of that as the campaign heats up.
  22. Transfer on Monday. Arrival date of August 9th, BKK Bank. Happy to get an e mail, money arrived late today. Only Four days. I exchanged e mails with customer service regarding this and a previous transfer during this last week. Their response was 'this is the way it is', nothing more & no explanation of why now. I have been a satisfied customer for years and will stay with them for now. However, I will also look at other options more seriously than I have in the past.
  23. I picked up liver flukes years back. I assume from Lap Gnu or Laap Mu (with the uncooked blood) consumed with copious amounts of alcohol, back when young & dumb. I'm older now. Can you get worms from street food? Sure, and a lot of other places. However excellent chance you will not get them if you pay attention to what the heck you stuff in your face. Over a decade, no worms or parasites. They are out there though, and parasites can be tricky little f--k-rs.
  24. You have to like JD Vance at the GOP convention blaming Biden, Senator Biden then, for the Iraq WMD invasion poochscrew. Republicans howled in support. Bush, Cheney & Rummy; The Deathstar Twins, Neocons, etc. were completely ignored/forgotten as if they never existed. A classic Republican moment. Fake news and ball face lying is so much a part of what Republicans stand for these days, why not apply it to, and rewrite, history?! JD Vance understands this, and seized the moment to expand the BS-ery. A man for our times.
  25. Like Always ,They Try / Want to Play Big Brother over Everyone. This week MFP leader Pita L. met with ambassadors of 18 countries in Bangkok. Interesting the Thai MSM chooses this article about a US Senator, but does not mention that meeting. Or the fact that the German Embassy invited MFP leader to lunch last week. Say what you will about the MSM, they know by publishing this article and ignoring the other events happening here in Thailand, they will get a kneejerk response from the usual mush heads. Further they connect up the MFP and the USA in peoples minds. Building the narrative before kneecapping the MFP.
