  1. Yes! For a change, I agree with everything you've written above! ๐Ÿ‘Sort of... I do believe in open borders and unrestrained migration. Yes, I know, or keep being told, that there are only two genders "under the law," but that doesn't make it true. Biologically and socially, that is certainly not true. At one time, the law allowed only certain people to go into showers and participate in sports, and designated them "Whites Only." Now, thanks to an early version of DEI, that law has changed, and most of us (but not all) believe that to be an improvement and a benefit to society. I believe some day, after the Trump government fiasco subsides, which could take many, many years, trans people too will be recognized and laws will be changed accordingly to accommodate them. This accommodation could be a removal of any gender qualifications on showers and sports, or it could be a creation of two additional classifications: Men/Trans-Women/Trans-Men/Women. I'd prefer the former but would accept the latter.
  2. I agree that if he's found guilty of the crimes he's been charged with, he'll go to jail, but when he gets out, or if he's found not guilty of these crimes, his claim of being a refugee should have to be denied before he can be deported. That's the way I think due process works in his case, anyway...
  3. I hate that he has done many things concerning immigrants without regard for the rule of law. I also dislike his emphasis that there are only two genders, when that claim is known to be obviously false to anyone familiar with biology or the varieties of people in human society.
  4. Find him, arrest him, try him, when found guilty, lock him up for 30 days, and then deport him. ๐Ÿ˜ก
  5. Garcia is not the Democrats' "hero." He's just one of the many examples of the Trump Administration's disregard for the rule of law. Now that he's back in the USA, hopefully, he will be given due process. If he is found guilty, he could indeed be deported. That's okay with me as long as the process is done according to the rule of law.
  6. If this percentage refers to people living in the USA, Trump never had even 50% of their approval rating. Even in the general election, he got less than 50% of the votes, and I suspect his approval rating of those who did not or could not vote was way less than that. I just checked Trump's approval rating online, and all of the recent polls show his rating about the same as his voting margin, around 50%. As a US citizen, I cannot understand how anyone could approve of what he's done since he took over the presidency this time or last time.
  7. I detest both Trump and Musk, but it's totally inappropriate, and maybe even against the Constitution, for anyone in government to either give or retract funds awarded to an organization because they have a personal like or dislike of them. ๐Ÿ˜ก
  8. He got his due process, arrested him, determined he was illegal and send him home. Do you understand that. His family did not receive due process. They were arrested, [due process is supposed to go here], determined to be illegal, and scheduled to be deported. Do you understand that?
  9. My home country, the USA, is definitely not "Luccie land," but it does have a constitution, the rules of which should be followed in all legal action. I know this doesn't always occur, but it is happening more frequently now that Trump is president. However, when anything like that does happen, it is our (US citizens') responsibility to speak up, reject, and condemn it. Whether or not that does any good does not matter. It's still our responsibility. That's what I am doing...
  10. Or, you could just go to a government hospital and receive treatments for free or a very, very low cost.
  11. I hope this woman gets a big, big reward for finding this from the government, or the rightful owner, if they can be found.
  12. I've used both methods. Now I use the THB 65k+/month option. I'd think you'd first have to have the THB 800k in the bank to qualify for your visa. After that, the next year, you could use the THB 65k+/month deposit.
  13. My bank produces the 12-month statement in ten minutes, and then, with the letter, which takes a couple of hours to get, I go to Immigration. My understanding is that the statement is only valid for that day, but that's just a guess; I don't really know. I always do all this on the same day.
  14. Yes! And to all those who do not approve this ruling, I have but two words for you: Due Process!
  15. anyone who is outside of America cannot possibly be retired or working, so I agree. You can only retire or work in America if you are an American. Once I met a guy in Thailand who was 90 and told me he was retired and no longer working, I showed him your post and now he realizes that's impossible. Back to America and into the mines!!!! My apologies. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ I mistyped my post above. I meant to say that "I hope Trump, or someone in his government, DOES NOT DECIDE that people who live outside the USA should not receive SS benefits. ๐Ÿ˜ 
  16. I certainly hope not. I'd hate to go back to being an un-woke capitalist.
  17. Although I'm supportive of trans people, as long as we cling to this biologically inaccurate idea that there are only two genders, and because of that, we only have two categories, male and female, I also support the testing of individuals to determine which of those outdated and restrictive gender classes they should be allowed to compete. I would only ask three things: 1. The scores used to determine gender on the various physical, chromosomal, hormonal, etc., tests used should be publicly posted in advance. 2. The tests should be used to determine both genders, not just male. 3. The tests should be required of ALL athletes.
  18. All technology pollutes. Some pollute less than others, so maybe "cheap batteries" pollute less than "expensive batteries." I don't know about that. I do know that all technology pollutes, so any increase in the use of technology, like for mining or as a result of mining, is bad for the environment.
  19. Yes, and I mistyped my original post. I hope Trump does NOT decide people who live outside the USA should not receive their SS benefits.
  20. I meant I hope Trump will NOT decide that people who live outside the USA should not receive benefits.
  21. Why? Because now, a lot of mining will take place, and mining is one of the worst destroyers of the environment.
  22. That's bad news for Oregon's environment. ๐Ÿ˜’
  23. Social Security retirement funds are meant for retired people, a.k.a. those who are no longer working. I hope Trump, or someone in his government, decides that people who live outside the USA should not receive SS benefits. And, I'm totally against trying to colonize Mars. We're destroying the Earth and should not be allowed to spread our species to another planet.
