  1. Melania Trump used to be a professional model, nude and otherwise. She dresses with intention. She's a real stickler about exactly how she dresses, or as the Kremlin recently reminded us, how she undresses as well. Like many, I found Melania's outfit at her insurrectionist felon hubby's big swearing in to protect the constitution day that he has no intention of protecting, to be chillingly strange and familiar. What was it? I couldn't place it so I had to look it up. Now I know. The Hamburglar. So the question is -- for the love of everything that is still good in the world, WHY?
  2. I haven't watched this as I'm not Australian, but I reckon there is good information about your specific question here:
  3. Sure but as an aging retiree moving someplace at least planning for the rest of your life, to think that is some kind of retirement visa solution is totally INSANE. Thailand is bad enough with one year extensions with no path towards permanent residence status.
  4. So a fake business scheme. Vietnam has done major crackdowns on those before. Retirement in Vietnam is NOT feasible if you're just retired.
  5. For the sake of discussion to avoid triggering the easily triggered, perhaps think of AUTHORITARIANISM instead of Nazis or fascism. There is zero doubt that Donald Trump now supported by Musk and other oligarchs is an authoritarian movement with dictatorial intentions (as much as they can get away with and they can get away with a lot). Frankly anyone that denies this reality is not worthy of entering into a discussion with.
  6. Dividends are accessable. In that case, I would either do nothing because they're probably not getting ATM stuff this year but maybe later OR if you know you need to file anyway for another reason then add that money as dividend income if you want to be cautious. In any case keep records. I think they will move towards considering ATM activity but as I said, a grey area for now.
  7. "Little boy" the richest man in the world now in control of algorithms intentionally pushing misinformation and Kremlin propaganda on X to influence and buy elections in multiple countries towards far right wing governments. Such an innocent little boy.
  8. My opinion. A grey area at the moment. You could do nothing and for this year probably be OK. OR you could know the source of the funds for the ATM withdrawals such as non-accessible pension and keep a record of that but also do nothing. OR if you knew the source of those funds was accessible you could file that income under it's category and keep the record of ATM activity in case of audit. Receipts fade away. You need the bank records.
  9. Wrong. It proves nothing of the kind Replace authoritarian strong man if that helps you understand.
  10. That's a stupid argument Fascists often come to power via a democratic election. Proves nothing that Biden participated in the peaceful transition of power.
  11. To be clear. I don't mean literal Nazism. I mean fascism. We're there already. As far as Musk's bizarre gestures, I have become aware that Nazis do read that for what it looks like.
  12. Clearly the USA isn't the last place it would.
  13. Nobody expects perfection.
  14. I'm fine with Rubio. I don't agree with some of his policy positions especially about him not being strong enough about defense of Ukraine, but can't expect great agreement with any republican. He's well qualified. The vast majority of Trump's picks are not qualified at all. It would be a dream if all of his picks were as qualified as Rubio. But no. Nothing like that.
  15. It's not so ridiculous when you see which GERMAN party Musk is actively trying to help gain power in GERMANY.
  16. Did he mention expanding American territory one time in his campaign? Bait and switch. Music to Putin and Xi's ears.
  17. His base is gonna suffer much much more.
  18. He just swore to defend the constitution. He will soon sign an executive order to end birthright citizenship. Liar. Criminal. Demagogue. President.
  19. Golden age? More like Trumo meme bitcoin scam age.
  20. The dark day has arrived.
  21. How many days until Tuesday, November 3, 2026?
  22. Thanks. So there IS something to celebrate today after all.
