  1. Most homeless in the U.S. these days are homeless because the rent is too darned high! They may become mentally ill or dead from being homeless though. I know I couldn't hack that.
  2. Interesting comment but the cooler weather in Bagaio is a definite big plus for many. Also not that far to travel to a beach area occasionally if you want that. The trekking thing is something you might do once as a tourist outside the city. It's the city there that appeals to me a possibly great place to live, though of course we can't know anything much before visiting. His economic info about the U.S. is dated, but worth looking at for the Baguio content:
  3. Nicknamed Dramaguette. I visited there long ago and wasn't feeling it. I am curious about Davao, Iloilo City, and especially Bagaio.
  4. * Deleted post edited out * Well it is very popular with U.S. veterans. The SRRV has very low requirements for veterans and there is a veterans health care available in Manila.
  5. At the same time saying they're for law and order.
  6. A clear and present danger. He should clearly be incarcerated while awaiting his trials. 'What's he got to lose?' Fascism expert says Trump's only option is to 'stage a coup' - Raw Story - Celebrating 19 Years of Independent Journalism Nothing is being done to curb Donald Trump from encouraging violence in his name – so it's only going to get worse, an expert wrote Thursday, Threats against judges and prosecutors are escalating, and members of the grand jury in Georgia have become targets of some Trump supporters with their names, photos and, in some cases, addresses posted online. Judge Tanya Chutkan, in particular, was targeted with racist threats to kill her if Trump is not elected in 2024. Meanwhile, Republicans – whether they're Trump allies or not – aren't stepping in to lower the temperature.
  7. I guess it's lost on you that it's in America's self interest to continue to provide support for Ukraine, and to weaken Russia.
  8. I also of course think he's guilty of a plethora of felonies. Which means I couldn't serve on his jury trials.
  9. You seem to be confusing two totally different issues. Nobody credible wants Trump sentenced without fair trials leading to convictions. The issue here is that he is violating the terms of his pre trial releases. Any other citizen if they have done what Trump has done would be incarcerated waiting for trial. Yes he's being given a special break because the situation of a former president facing such a plethora of felony indictments while running for president is extremely unprecedented. Judges want to preserve his rights, but as he does, he's pushing this to the limits.
  10. The headline is freaky too. I wouldn't necessarily blame it on the writer. Presumably they have an editor too.
  11. What I find hilarious is that you think Joe Biden is "the left." Almost as funny as people that think Trump is conservative.
  12. Love his music. Surprised he's still touring.
  13. I hope he's worried. The Trump Crime Family is the sleeper story of the year.
  14. Do they have laksa?
  15. This is really going to cut into his golfing. Oh, the humanity!
  16. Where there's smoke (scratch that) an apocalyptic conflagration there's fire.
  17. He was there for the weekend. Rehoboth is very nice. Not tacky like Mar y Lardo. He's headed to Lake Tahoe on Friday. It's August.
  18. To Trump Hawaii is Puerto Rico in the Pacific plus Obama's home state.
  19. The Kang Kong sambal is good. Cereal shrimp is interesting. I didn't mention this because I'm not sure they're still open. If open Secret Recipe in the same mall mostly known for cakes had laksa. Not saying it was great laksa.
  20. No consequence to ignoring that paper.
  21. What Malaysia and many other countries are doing is not discrimination. It's persecution. It tells alot that you describe sending people to prison for homosexuality as discrimination. I did not equate. I pointed out a parallel. The US withdrawaling some of their best athletes because they were Jews to comply with Nazi sensitibilities was wrong. People siding with the Malaysian government over the dissenting band at that festival is also wrong. To add the 1936 Berlin Olympics preceeded the holocaust. The success of that Olympics added greatly to the internationally legitimacy of the Nazi regime.
  22. Sadly not those two dishes but many others. Central Pattaya mall, 5th floor. https://www.boontongkeethailand.com/home/menu-btk/
  23. Reminds me of the Berlin Olympics where the US pulled out Jewish athletes to “adhere to all local guidelines and regulations."
