  1. No I'm for comprehensive Immigration reform. Sane humane policies recognizing that tearing apart families should be avoided, easier faster paths for legal immigration, not disrupting industries that citizens don't want to work in. America needs immigrants. Always has and always will. America would be aging like Japan without immigration. There is no need to throw the baby out with the bath water. Why do the maga fascists like draconian measures? White nationalist Christian centered racism. Simple as that. Very ugly stuff. They would thrilled to welcome more immigration if it was Swedes who were coming.
  2. Stop this fascist before it is too late. Comprehensive Immigration reform yes. Not this madness. To add, if Americans think grocery priduce and restaurant meals are too expensive now ....
  3. No surprise really. Orban picked his side long ago. North Korea next?
  4. Greenwald is part of the left. Its very hard indeed to take "maverick" Greenwald seriously about anything. https://www.thebulwark.com/p/the-long-history-of-glenn-greenwalds-kissing-up-to-the-kremlin The Long History of Glenn Greenwald’s Kissing Up to the Kremlin In his world, it seems America can do nothing right and Vladimir Putin can do nothing wrong. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2021/03/why-glenn-greenwald-says-tucker-carlson-is-a-true-socialist.html Glenn Greenwald’s long intellectual journey from center left to far left to, well, somewhere is a subject of fascination in elite circles. Greenwald comes out of a tradition of progressive journalism that focused primarily on attacking liberals and the Democratic Party from the left. Like many progressives, he latched on to Bernie Sanders’s two presidential campaigns as a righteous crusade to liberate the Democratic Party from the nefarious grip of its corporate, neoliberal masters. After that, things got weird.
  5. Look at Trump's character. It's horrible! He couldn't get a job at Target. But no give him the one job in the country thats above the law. Completely insane.
  6. I haven't followed the presidents comments on that either way.as like most democrats I'm focused on the question of him withdrawing from the nomination a here and now crisis. Trump could stay in office the same way other dictators stay in office as scotus has made presidents above the law. This video details the issues with the outrageously bad scouts ruling.
  7. But clearly about zero percent of retired expats without Thai based income have been filing before with zero consequence.
  8. Right so I'm hearing pension income is exempt but if you transfer it in, does it need to be reported on Thai tax or not or is there no definite answer on that. I fear.people that dont owe tax will be forced to pay high fees to advisors who.will be giving contradictory opinions depending on where you go. I find this very annoying. As a non immigrant retiree what services does the Thai government provide?
  9. Actually that's what happened with my Condo tax. They started sending letters.
  10. Putin has elections. If what the Supreme Court did was in effect under Nixon it would have been illegal to look at the tapes so that was the evidence and without evidence there would no case against him. I don't rely on mainstream media. I listen to legal and constitutional experts.
  11. What a bonanza for so called tax advisors. I'm too invested here to leave over this but it's another reason to not suggest retirement here to new people.
  12. I deliberately will have zero assessable income for 2024 as I wanted more time to see how this mess shakes out. I assume that means that even though a tax resident no obligation to have a tin or to file for tax year 2024. Sounds correct?
  13. Why are there three numbers? What if you don't?
  14. What if you determine that you'll owe no tax and just don't get a number and don't file. At the end of the day, UNLESS immigration starts to demand tax stuff for extensions, that's what most not working in Thailand expats are going to do anyway.
  15. 1. Puppy killer. 3. Nobody from Florida 5. Upstages Trump. No go.
  16. Yeah that's how it works, or doesn't work. Absolutely pointless. Some might say, just like life.
  17. Not related. She's not in contention simply because she couldn't have been more clear that she has ZERO interest in seeking any political office, much less the presidency. They run such polls because people are interested. Kind of like polling Oprah who also isn't running. To add, IF Michelle actually entered the race (she would never) her polling would instantly drop like a rock, because the reality never matches the fantasy.
  18. Trump's policy is whatever is good for Trump at the moment. He doesn't have an ideology in the traditional sense.
  19. Your news item has nothing to do with the Trump movement being a fascist one or not. It is. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/the-is-donald-trump-a-fascist-debate-has-been-ended-by-donald-trump/ar-AA1jVktW As far as people hating Jews that comes from multiple directions. Christian based, white supremacist based, Islamist based, and leftist based.
  20. That's ridiculous. Neither party has nominated anyone yet!
  21. On the other hand, Americans like NEW stuff. I'd like to see Whitmer who has pretty good name recognition, but it seems we're going to be stuck with Harris.
  22. Of course Biden isn't morally perfect but Trump is one of the worst human beings ever to come out of the American culture. Not too surprising as he was mentored by another world class villain Roy Cohn.
