The red poppy is not the same gesture as the homosexual rainbow at all. They might be performative gestures but one is to honour and remember our families who died in the wars before us. The gay rainbow is a very modern symbol and is about the the right to the expression of sexual pleasure in which there is no sacrifice.
I agree they're not the same gesture.
But this statement is poppycock.
"The gay rainbow is a very modern symbol and is about the the right to the expression of sexual pleasure in which there is no sacrifice."

Never going to happen.
Nobody will ever know how the conversation went but my suspicion is the Thais were looking for an indication of net income rather than gross.
At the end of the day, a tax liability cannot be construed as income.
Some embassies are still issuing income letters. The issue is the embassy has to be able to verify the stated information.

If there is anything, and it were released, would anyone trust it to be unredacted?

23 minutes ago, jerrymahoney said:The decision to pursue the indictment against Abrego Garcia led to the abrupt departure of Ben Schrader, a high-ranking federal prosecutor in Tennessee, sources briefed on Schrader's decision told ABC News. Schrader's resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons, the sources said.
Schrader, who spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney's Office in Nashville and was most recently the chief of the criminal division, declined to comment when contacted by ABC News.
https://abcnews.go.com/US/mistakenly-deported-kilmar-abrego-garcia-back-us-face/story?id=121333122I read the same. Seems obvious it's connected.

Why are there so many more trans kids then there were 100 years ago?
The "more educated" you refer to are generally leftist academics and advocates. Promoting one thing over another does not make you "open minded". that's just leftist rhetoric.
Do you not see special events and calibrations and whatnot as promotional?
I do not think for a moment that you want to trans kids, but pretending no one is trying is trans kids, many even with good intent, puts you on the wrong side of this issue.
Noone is promoting to trans kids. I really don't understand the obsession some have with LGBTQ.
That said, i agree with the headline, the message gets lost in the execution.

so !! Putin retaliates and send missiles to civilian zones killing more innocent people, why isn't Zelensky doing the same, why does Ukraine only targets military sites, I am for the one eye for one eye, Zelensky should target any site in Russia regardless if it's military or not, he should do as the Russians do, close your eyes and shoot/push the button and will see where it lands, scare the shxxxxxxttt of the Russians, stop being the nice guy because whatever Ukraine does Putin calls it an act of sabotage and whatever Russians do it's an act of what??? murdering ??
I think ultimately striking civilians doesn't help Ukraine. Stick to military targets, all over Russia but especially those that form a direct threat to Ukraine. That also includes military personnel all over Russia.

As usual facts don't support your opinion.

Strange conclusion. I see nothing surprising in Russian actions, why would trump be perplexed. Only reason i would say is that he can't believe Putin would ignore him.

"A U.S.- and Israeli-backed group handing out aid in Gaza said on Friday all its distribution sites were closed until further notice, urging residents to stay away from these venues "for their safety" after a series of deadly shootings."

It's 4D chess. Not checkers like the ex-Biden team's playing.
This shows that the human brain will believe anything it wants to believe.

Just a quickie from AI Gemini:
In the United States, while nationalization (government taking control of a business) is generally possible, it typically involves compensation to the original owners, as mandated by the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution. This ensures "just compensation" is paid when the government takes private property, including businesses.
-- then Elon could then go back to his real business of making more kids.That would add a nice chunk to the deficit.

Why? Because the USA refused to sell Thailand ther latest jets! I would imagine if and its a big IF Sweden agrees to sell its jets to Thai/China they will be stripped of all the latest tech first!!! Just remember the headlines "Thailand set to buy USA jets F16". Just to be told "No!" By the USA!!@
F 16, are you sure about that?

Interesting to see that Cambodia escaped being put on the final list, but Laos didn't.
Only because the US has been flooded with Lao immigrants and terrorists.

My understanding is that the British Embassy said that as it couldn't actually confirm / verify the income independently, they were unable to issue the letters. I think other embassies said similar.
Correct, that's the issue.

I don't believe there's a kill switch, but do believe bully politics could be an issue, especially with maintenance.
