  1. Judge orders another long prison term in Gov. Whitmer plot A Delaware trucker described as a co-leader of the conspiracy to kidnap Michigan’s governor was sentenced to more than 19 years in prison Wednesday, a day after an accomplice received 16 years behind bars. https://apnews.com/article/gretchen-whitmer-politics-michigan-legal-proceedings-067bdf0f233865a9070918f98b6d4c3a?utm_source=homepage&utm_medium=TopNews&utm_campaign=position_01
  2. CNN cable TV interviewed a Buffalo resident who said she had never in her life seen such a blizzard.
  3. You use polls to help you decide who to vote for?
  4. That would still constitute lying to the police so no net gain there, sorry.
  5. If you're not comparing the Chinese to Russians then you are off topic. I was. And I was really referring to independent travellers as that's the appropriate comparison.
  6. On CNN Tuesday, reporter Jessica Schneider reported that former White House staffer and blockbuster House January 6 Committee witness Cassidy Hutchinson alleged she saw former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows routinely burning documents in a fireplace. https://www.rawstory.com/mark-meadows-burning-documents/?traffic_source=Connatix
  7. I don't recall ever hearing it but it may not have registered as I didn't like the song just now anyway.
  8. Or they genuinely have never heard of him. I listen to music I select as a rule. The only exception is in bars where I pay no attention tot he music anyway.
  9. Fears of extremist campaign after another attack on Washington state power station But it follows warnings by US officials that neo-Nazis who say they want to spark a race war are targeting electricity stations. They planned the attack to create "general chaos" as part of their "goal of creating a white ethno-state," the indictment said. https://www.rawstory.com/power-grid-washington-state/
  10. You mean families like "What's the most confusing day of the year in Yorkshire? ????
  11. Are all youse Chinese haters insisting that the Russians are better behaved? Seriously?
  12. That's the one. It had a vacant lot across the street where they parked tour buses. They also parked them up and down Thapraya Rd and my friend tells me many parked behind Central Marina.
  13. True, I only really see the FiTs around where I live. The groups used to live behind Soi Buakhao years ago.
  14. Yes. 90% of the time I can tell the difference immediately. The three languages are quite distinct. I've spent enough time (decades) in Thailand and the Philippines to know.
  15. I find the Chinese pretty quiet and well mannered (by comparison since somebody laughed).
  16. Those figures are from 2019. I suspect (know) they are far higher than that now. In Pattaya too. Pretty soon I'll be able to speak Russian if I keep hearing it everywhere I go.
  17. Nobody is supporting easier immigration or open borders or whatever slogan the right wing come up with this week to slur the radical lefty marxists. What the left want is timely processing of applications for asylum and sending back those who don't need the standard. I note that you are included in the group of everybody who hasn't bothered to comment on my question why employers aren't being charged for employing illegal immigrants just like they do in your country.
  18. I find it mildly depressing that the baby boomers who were the founders of the "age of enlightenment" have mainly just turned into bitter old men and women as they aged. Unfortunately I am one of that demographic, born in the 50's but I like to think I'm not jaded and bitter and harbour no "fixed beliefs" or intolerance for people who don't look like me.
  19. Well then he's obviously been good for the Thai tourist industry.
  20. I'm not English but I've also never heard of him.
