    The world is a far better place without this pathological liar on the air. 

     

    It is astonishing that some people actually believe what he has to say. 

    I think this is as good an explanation as we're gonna get as to how people with a (more or less) functioning brain can listen to these lies and not go; "Now wait a minute....!"

     

    Jordan Klepper Recalls His Favorite MAGA Comment And It's A Doozy

     

    "Klepper remembered talking to a woman during Trump’s first impeachment for trying to extort Ukraine and the then-president was blocking witnesses, including former national security adviser John Bolton, from testifying.

    Klepper asked if blocking testimony would be an admission of guilt and the woman agreed it would and then Klepper told her Trump was blocking testimony.

    “And she takes this very long beat, she thinks about it, and she says, ‘I don’t care,’” he said."

     

    Keppler goes on to say that when politics and identities get mixed up they don't care about the truth anymore.

    While Tucker was in his comfortable studio, one of Fox's cameramen was killed and another injured in Ukraine. Tucker then went onto root for Russia!

     

    While Carlson has been bloviating from the comfort of his studio, repeatedly propagandizing for Russian President Vladimir Putin while disparaging Ukraine and its allies, longtime Fox News cameraman Pierre Zakrzewski, 55, and 24-year-old Oleksandra Kuvshynova, a local journalist and consultant to the Fox News crew in Ukraine, were braving arms fire there. They died Monday when their vehicle was hit near Kyiv. Another Fox News reporter, Benjamin Hall, was injured in the attack.

     

    Tucker: "Why do I care what is going on in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia? I'm serious. Why shouldn't I root for Russia? Which by the way I am."

     I don't know how long you have lived here, but I came here when there were proper politicians, with good education running the country, no forced 90 day reports like common criminals.

     

    I have lived here full time since 1993 and I fail to come up with any period  since then where Thailand was run by "proper politicians, with good education".

    It's not that such persons do not exist. It's just that in a society where who you know counts for far more than what you know, such persons will have a very hard time getting into positions of power.

    If anybody has the absolute majority in politics, then they have the right to rule.

    But obviously they still have to follow the laws and the constitution.

     

    And the politicians are still subjects to the laws. If they do something unlawful, then they should be prosecuted and convicted. That seems to be a problem in Thailand.

    How about instigating coups - should that be prosecuted?

    "Thailand’s Move Forward Party wants to reclaim the lost decade under a military-backed rule by de-monopolizing businesses and reducing the role of armed forces, its leader Pita Limjaroenrat tells Bloomberg News. The opposition party will also push for decentralization of economic power outside its capital and commercial hub Bangkok if it wins next month’s general election, Pita, an alumnus of Harvard Kennedy School of Government and MIT Sloan School of Management said in an interview on April 19, 2023."
