  1. If I was a rich beyatch I'd hire him. He has specialized expertise for that demographic.
  2. It isn't nonsense. You clearly don't understand it. I failed to mention his atrocious cabinet picks which are the most damaging and least qualified in American history. I get it though. You're in the camp of trying to normalize a maman. Learn from history.
  3. Not the most but it's a good passport. Russian passport used to be a lot better. Things can change, even for Americans. Is it so hard to get the point of this topic?
  4. Kremln propagandist as head of U.S. intelligence. What could possibly go wrong?
  5. As far as Russians in Thailand. they have options here of course because Thailand is friendly to Russia. But if you dug deeper you would know Russians have very few options of getting residency outside Russia option, and Thailand is crap for them as far as residency. Most who have fled are here because they can stay awhile but they would much rather find a permanent port which will actually be residence secure such as western Europe, etc. They can't even travel as tourists to western Europe, unless they got a visa pre 2022. I refer to Russians because they are big pariahs NOW and so many millions of them have fled or want to. Americans, you don't want to ever be in their situation or even half as bad as their situtation.
  6. The topic really is very narrow. About visa treatment, freedom of travel treatment, banking treatment, freedom of money transfers treatment. etc. Russian expats are being punished because of their government. In much of the world. The Nomad Capitalist suggests the Trump's actions (which you absurdly misrepresent) have the potential of biting Americans in similar ways. He tells us Russians who were smart or lucky enough to take action before 2022 are in much better shape than later Russian expats or wannabes. He's suggesting based on Trump's behavior, Americans might consider taking a lesson from those smarter or luckier Russians. That's basically it. Not all this other stupid noise people are posting here that has nothing to do with the topic.
  7. It isn't too early. He has broken multiple laws and violated the constitution several times. He has committed multiple impeachable offences. He has threatened to attack close, trashed relations with Europe, and sucked up to enemies. His policy to freeze USAID will result in the deaths of countless millions globally and that has already started, also a direct gift to China, He is rapidly destroying American democracy and moving it to an authoritarian dictatorship. In only a few weeks. Why do you feel the need to wait to judge? Do you think an criminally corrupt elderly madman president is going to magically become a good man or leader? No way!
  8. Again, you don't even know what the topic is about.
  9. So you're ignorant of the phenom. Kind of silly continuing to post on stuff you know nothing about.
  10. I agree it does not equate. I am using the definition of Zionism to mean supporting the existence of the state of Israel (not necessarily their policies, many of which have obviously been horrible). So in that sense the vast majority of Israeli citizens who are Jews are definitely pro Zionist. Lower support with Arab Israelis of course and yes among diaspora Jews there is majority pro Zionist support but not at Israeli levels. Cheers.
  11. Obnoxious willful ignorance if you don't know about the problems Russians have been having with traveling and getting new residences! Why are you even posting on this topic if you know NOTHING about it?
  12. No need to give up U.S. citizenship to have a perm residency or second passport (if the other country allows dual). Even right wing Americans who have migrated to Russia to be Putin propaganda puppets usually hold on to their U.S. passports even though Russia doesn't recognize dual.
  13. I like Cream of Wheat too but based on the price here, I have never bought it. Impossible to "stretch" it like Grape Nuts. I may as explain what I mean. To stretch Grape Nuts for a cereal breakfast I use a mix of other cheaper not crunchy grains including Thai sourced no sugar corn flakes, Australian no sugar multigrain Muesli surprisingly cheap, Orgran rice puffs also Aussie I think, and then just two tablespoons of Grape Nuts. The Grape Nuts crunch and taste dominates.
  14. Not about that. You didn't watch the video and pretty have no understanding of the challenges Russian expats face abroad these days specifically because of Putin.
  15. I'm sure most of us are buying some U.S. products without realizing it though. But yes they are expensive. The only obvious U.S. products that I regularly buy are Tabasco Chipotle hot sauce and Grape Nuts cereal. I've figured out a clever way to stretch the absurdly priced Grape Nuts but there is no way I would be eating only that for breakfast.
  16. The teacher was right but if he broke the rules of his school, actions have consequences. I hope he can find other employment.
  17. You know, like Russians abroad are suffering now, whether they have any culpability for the behavior of their nation's dictator or not. He suggests taking action to minimize the potential damage of that. In the Russian example, Russians who got a second passport BEFORE 2022 are sitting pretty. Most other Russians who have or want to flee Russia after that are struggling. Unfortunately for Americans in Thailand, the vast majority aren't going to be eligible for permanent residence of citizenship in Thailand. So as far as acting on the advice, for most that would mean another country with more realistic paths towards a second passport.
  18. I think it's obvious that Thailand is on the list because of the trade imbalance alone. Trump falsely believes that means that any country in that category is "stealing" from the U.S. Why hasn't he done it yet? Not sure. Maybe because he doesn't consider Thailand a big name country and he's pretty dumb when it comes to geography (like his voters). But with the impact from what he's doing to China which means China will dump stuff to Thailand, it seems to me more or less inevitable.
  19. It wasn't a mistake. It was OBVIOUSLY intentionally spread strategically time MISINFORMATION spread by the master of the most influential MISINFORMATION vehicle on earth -- Musk owned Twitter. (Who cares what that weirdo calls it now).
  20. For one example of the misinformation that you posted which I replied to was your objectively false assertion that the majority of Israelis are of "European" descent. That incorrect attack trope is often used by Israel demonizers and/or antisemites to deny the legitimacy of the state of Israel to even exist on land in the Middle East. I will post a link proving my point. Of course I am not the "ultimate" authority about anything and I never claimed to be that. Nobody is. So that attack by you is totally moronic weak tea. How would I know the heritage of you specifically? I don't know you from Adam. I have no idea of your ethnicity. If you posted about it, I didn't commit it to memory. So you say you know the difference between Judaism and Zionism. Good on you. Do you also understand that Jews are an ethnoreligious group so exist as a people and not only a religion, and there is no need to be a practicing Jew to be a Jew?

  21. The Kremlin is partying.
  22. No he should win the Neville Chamberlain prize
