  1. If it does it looks like they'll be using Bumrungrad for treatment.
  2. Just to confirm....is this the "utter balloons' to which you are referring..... Yes, there is substantial evidence that Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. presidential election with the goal of assisting Donald Trump. This evidence has been outlined in several government reports, investigations, and intelligence assessments. The most notable findings come from the U.S. Intelligence Community, the Mueller Report, and the Senate Intelligence Committee’s bipartisan report. Key Findings on Russian Interference: 1. U.S. Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) - January 2017: The U.S. intelligence agencies (CIA, FBI, NSA) released a joint assessment concluding with high confidence that Russia, under the direction of President Vladimir Putin, interfered in the 2016 election to undermine confidence in the democratic process, harm Hillary Clinton’s campaign, and help Donald Trump win. They cited: • Cyberattacks on Democratic targets: Russian hackers, primarily from the group known as Fancy Bear (linked to Russia’s military intelligence, the GRU), hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta, which were then leaked to the public through platforms like WikiLeaks. • Social media disinformation: Russia’s Internet Research Agency (IRA) engaged in a wide-ranging social media campaign to spread disinformation, promote divisive content, and support Trump’s candidacy while attacking Clinton. 2. The Mueller Report - April 2019: Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation detailed two main efforts by Russia to influence the 2016 election: • Hacking and leaking operations: The GRU hacked Democratic emails, which were then strategically released to hurt Clinton and help Trump. • Social media manipulation: The Internet Research Agency ran thousands of fake social media accounts and groups to spread pro-Trump, anti-Clinton messaging, aiming to exacerbate political and social divisions in the U.S. However, the report did not establish a criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia, though it did document multiple contacts between Trump associates and individuals linked to Russia. The report also outlined instances where Trump campaign officials sought to benefit from Russia’s actions, such as Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with a Russian lawyer promising “dirt” on Clinton. 3. Senate Intelligence Committee Report - 2020: A five-volume report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee largely confirmed the findings of the intelligence community and Mueller. It highlighted Russia’s interference and pointed out the Kremlin’s intent to assist Trump. It also described the Trump campaign’s willingness to accept and exploit the foreign assistance, though it stopped short of concluding there was an explicit agreement (conspiracy) between the campaign and Russia. The committee report emphasized the role of Paul Manafort, Trump’s campaign chairman, who had extensive connections to Russian-aligned individuals. Manafort provided internal campaign polling data to a Russian intelligence officer, Konstantin Kilimnik, which raised significant concerns about potential coordination. Conclusion: While there is substantial evidence that Russia interfered in the 2016 election with the intent to help Donald Trump, the investigations did not establish that the Trump campaign criminally conspired with Russia. The interference took several forms, including cyberattacks, the release of stolen emails, and a vast disinformation campaign. The fact that the Trump campaign sought to benefit from these actions, though not proven to be a criminal conspiracy, has been a subject of ongoing political and legal debate.
  3. Can't get my wife to wear makeup.....not that she needs to...but a tiny bit of eyeliner.....oh boy!!! Doesn't smoke (tobacco), doesn't drink, no tattoos, no piercings......feel like I'm missing out.
  4. I'm confused.....I thought Trump is America's Hitler.....now it's Vance????
  5. Do you know what hypocrite means......try reading your post again.....see if you can spot anything slightly hypocritical.
  6. Maybe Trump could build a dam and make the Germans pay for it?
  7. Am I missing something here?........What was/is the RTP's involvement in this unfolding ...likely to be.....tragedy?
  8. Another tough outing for Mr Trump?? Donald Trump spoke at a Georgia town hall on Tuesday to address women’s issues - it turned out the “town” was populated by only GOP backers hand-selected by Fox News. Trump held a “town hall” to talk women’s issues, but only GOP backers were there - https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-town-hall-women-georgia-b2629936.html
  9. Strange that they should prefer the racist overtones and denigration spewed forth by Trump?????? Very odd.
  10. Two medical emergencies stopped the show?..........my ****. Have you any idea how many 'medical emergencies' there are at each and every one of these events? For a one-hour event with 5,000 people, the expected number of medical emergencies would likely be in the range of 6 to 10.
  11. Trump has the most to fear. Vance is playing a blinder. Either way he will be running in 2028.
  12. Oh dear Georgia judge blocks rule requiring counties to hand-count Election Day ballots Adam Edelman A Georgia judge today blocked a new rule from the state’s election board that would have required counties to count ballots cast on Election Day by hand, a provision critics had said would cause delays in reporting results in the battleground state. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney wrote in his decision that the rule was implemented too close to Election Day and would cause “administrative chaos.” “Anything that adds uncertainty and disorder to the electoral process deserves the public,” he wrote. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/live-blog/trump-harris-presidential-election-live-updates-rcna175178#rcrd60321
  13. Am I looking at the correct figures.........? 78% support (+63 on the Reps).......Who is getting excited over those figures?
  14. Hope he hasn't been hit by a bombshell.
  15. Feet up, opening envelopes I imagine......or he was.
  16. What is the world coming to when a potential leader of the free world 1. Can't lie freely and 2. Is fact checked on those lies. I despair at times.
  17. Staffing ratios should be fixed (UK is, or used to be 8:1, unless it is a term-time ski trip then management have to go and it drops to 1:1).....parents cannot be counted as part of the staffing ratio......it is recognised that in any traumatic event they will focus on one thing only....their own child/children.....but they can certainly go and help....but they cannot be counted upon come the crunch.
  18. Good point....and subject to the usual lubrication?
  19. Nice try ****wit......Rent my house out in the UK, £1450/month and the house, land and farm in Isaan cost me zip......all my wife's money. Sorry to disappoint......feel free to try another line of attack.....555
