Bull. I respect Rice. Desantis is a despicable hate mongering demagogue. Why would Rice want to be associated with such a sleazeball.

No. She's not a hate mongering bigot like him.

As I would have expected. OMG.

Possibly through immigration. Or they could simply require all tax resident foreigners to file. If you want to lie on that, best of luck.

Nobody here knows exactly how this all is going to shake out. Except if you're not a tax resident -- in which case nothing will happen. A lot will also depend on your specific financial details and your nationality. My prediction take it or leave it based on what we know now is that tax resident expats will be burdened to file in Thailand and prove to them you have no tax liability here, or if you do, to file and pay it. We shall see.

Yeah you could do that but if you're a tax resident here the authorities know that you're spending money here, so doing that could lead to suspicion of (taxable) illegally working here or you might need to make your case as your more off the record ATM transfers. The Nomad Capitalist guy is suggesting that even spending in Thailand with a foreign credit card is a remittance as well. It's premature for most people to make plans to leave yet. Personally I expect a good chance to be required to file and a good chance to owe no tax here. But at my level even if taxed it wouldn't be enough to rationalize leaving because of it.

I honestly don't think that's relevant. If the Thai authorities deem such people of any nationality to be non-compliant, then it will be those individuals that will need to make their case. Keep in mind that a possible scenario might be immigration needing tax information to process extensions.

She would never run with DeSantis.

I can't read your mind.

You're conflating paying tax in Thailand with being required to FILE a tax return in Thailand.

He's a despicable lying conspiracy theory spouting CON MAN. A trump rama ticket would be two notorious con men. I hope they do it as that's a guaranteed LOSER. Start at 10:10

That's ridiculous! The definition of Thailand tax resident is very simple. At least 180 days or more of the year being in Thailand. Having a DTA is a thing but it's not magic. The Thai tax authorities would need to see your foreign details to see in which way you qualify or not. Each nation that has one has a different one. This is going to be a field day for expat tax consultants here.

I'm a huge fan of Nathan Fielder but his new show The Curse is at another level of sophistication and reactions to it will be very divisive. If you don't know him, I would suggest going back and watching his previous stuff as well. If you hate The Curse (as I think many will) you may love his previous work. Anyway, the first episode of The Curse is out.

I read the same thing and really don't get why you think that post is so positive.

My take is at the very least eventually most Thailand tax resident expats are going to at least be required to FILE a Thai tax return even if they will owe nothing. I find this very not thrilling.

Twinkle toes?

An interesting perspective. Expats are confused? You think?

None of the remaining five Rs have a chance to be nominated EXCEPT if trump explodes in some way. Such as felony convictions BEFORE the election. Scott would want to run as a VP but also won't be picked. He's definitely going to pick a woman.

If you're sincerely asking whether the scum boy would help a trump ticket, I actually think absolutely not. Also he's more of loudmouth A-hole than trump is if that was even possible. He would never be picked. trump wouldn't want to be upstaged.

Using the queer word is mainstream among YOUNGER LGBTQ people. It doesn't indicate that a person is necessarily an extremist / activist. It does indicate a person being on the younger side.

Nikki Haley got it right calling ramaswamy scum.

Yep. Ethnic cleansing. Of Jews.

Pin the Jew. You're really charming.

The region! Not a people! Palestinian Arab as a distinct political identity separate from Jordanian Arab etc didn't come until much later.

Then we're done. A big loss it's not.
