Sea levels *are* rising, despite your opinion.

But the seas *are* rising, so there is that.

If human produced CO2 were to disappear immediately, the natural climate forcing agents would slowly cause cooling. Not catastrophic cooling, but it would be unpleasant. One of the causes of the collapse of the Roman Empire was a cooling event that caused grain production in North Africa to contract, and pushed Germanic tribes southwards, and eventually into England.

In the US, incandescent light bulbs were banned. That helped a lot in reducing pollution.

New filing reveals there are 5K pages of classified docs in Trump's Mar-a-Lago case Anyone here believe Trump just forgot about these classified documents?

He was testifying because of a subpoena, not by his choice.

Oops, I didn't know that the word "source" was a link until I saw your post.

You seem confused about the facts of the classified documents case.

Give it up. BTW, Biden was president when the handful of classified documents were discovered by his attorneys. So, according to Trump, Biden had immunity unless he were impeached and convicted by Congress. Which hasn't happened. Do you disagree with Trump?

Maybe the experts in Maldives got the date wrong, but sea levels are rising in the Maldives. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change_in_the_Maldives#:~:text=By 2050%2C 80% of the,entire country could be submerged".

The long term effects of climate change can't be predicted now with specificity. Maybe Russia will get warmer, or maybe parts will turn into cold deserts.

If you want to tell us that you flunked Science, just say so. Don't bother us with CT that science is wrong because someone has a jet. Maybe next you will tell us that the Law of Gravity is fake because some billionaire flew in space.

The basic point is that preparing a Thai tax return is going to be a big headache for aged Farangs living in the village. I suspect few will do so, until and unless the Thai government creates some motivation. And, if the new rules are intended to capture tax revenue from rich Thais, then the RD isn't going to spend a lot of time making tax forms easier for aged Farangs in the village. So, DTA support is probably going to be minimal.

So, Trump doesn't have the money to pay his fine. I guess he was lying in the past about being rich. If it is true that a bond agency offered a $100 million bond, Trump probably would have to put some tens of millions of dollars in an escrow account as security. And after that, he's broke. Such a great businessman.

What you are referring to is that bond agencies charge a premium above the principal amount, which is their profit.

Your implication is that the US - Thailand tax treaty prohibits double taxation, so US nationals in Thailand are already fully taxed. The problem is that retirees are often living off capital gains income, and Thai tax rates for capital gains are generally higher than US tax rates. So, US nationals may indeed owe tax to Thailand, if they file a return.

Same here. Plus I will spend 187+ days out of Thailand this year. Next year, I will monitor the situation to see how many expats are tagged for not filing 2024 income tax returns. Apart from expats with official jobs who already pay taxes, I don't know anyone who plans to fill out a 2024 tax return.

The takeaway from the latest news is that Trump doesn't have the cash for the appeal, and the best he can do is a $100 million bond. Unless Trump can convince the judges to order a stay, there is a good chance that Leticia James will begin liquidation after March 25. Of course, that would be another lengthy legal battle.

Global warming is clearly caused by human activity. This article is about ocean warming and the question of why it is occurring so rapidly. I'm sorry that you don't understand the article.

Most lawyers lie by omission. It's unusual for a lawyer to make a straight up false statement.

So Alina Habba lied when she claimed that Trump had the money to post a bond.

what hearing? What committee?

Trump must come up with the full bond amount to cover the $454 million civil fraud trial judgment, appeals court judge rules Associate Justice Anil Singh, however, lifted a ban on Trump’s ability to obtain loans from a New York bank, which could allow him to access the equity in his assets to back the full bond amount.

You were conned by the Russians. You fell for their tricks, but you still support them. Why is that?

Not true. Why would the Russian fabricate damaging stuff about Biden?
