I completely agree, Trump would not be where he is without the deep state or a similarly sinister organization or group of very powerful people who put him in that place, and are allowing him to conduct these extremely destructive economic policies. As reckless and as poorly thought out as all this seems, I think it's actually deliberate economic sabotage. Unfortunately the average American and the average person without wealth throughout the world will end up being the victims. Tens of millions of Trump supporters will be very surprised at the end result, and it won't be a pleasant surprise. Very few people truly understand just how sinister both Trump and Musk are.

Have you noticed that poster is nearly always panicked?

Forgive me for thinking this way, but somehow I don't expect an American president to be wearing Halloween type makeup on a daily basis.

Don the Destroyer is hard at work bringing the America to its knees, this has to be intentional, it has to be part of the plan. Won't his supporters be astonished if it actually happens, and then Don and his billionaire buddies swoop in and buy America on the cheap? I think that in the second Trump term he is not only taking America’s soft power and setting it on fire in all sorts of ways, but really making these abrupt decisions that are going to kill hundreds of thousands and maybe more than a million people (USAID) and he’s doing it in this incredibly arbitrary, careless way. I don’t think he has a coherent value structure as most of us understand it. I think we’re seeing a president who’s operating without anything any of us would recognize as a conscience or a semblance of morality. Truly. It is about showing what he can get away with. It’s about showing his enemies that what they support, he can tear down. It is all about displays of brute strength. He gets off on that, and in that sense, it seems not so much an autocracy but a flexocracy. Let me show you how I can flex my bicep as I use it to power my fist coming into your face. It’s not about any coherent values. It’s not about any North Star. It’s about showing that you can turn the boat 180 degrees around and that you can do whatever you want and you can bring the people who opposed you to their knees.

There is absolutely no new obligation on our parts, to engage the system. Period. No new laws. No passed legislation. It appears to be a huge nothing burger.

They all lie. Dems and Republicans. Name a republican who does not lie. Cite one day Trump has not lied.

Of course. Both sides lie all the time. At the national level there is little difference. Both parties are morally bankrupt. Few Republicans can admit that.

He is an absolutely dreadful man, and a nasty piece of work.

No. I have been visiting 3rd world, and poorer countries since I was 17. So, I accept the fact that this world has alot of poverty. 648 million people in the world, about eight percent of the global population, live in extreme poverty, which means they subsist on less than US$2.15 per day. Almost a quarter of the global population, 23 percent, lived below the US$3.65 poverty line, and almost half, 47 percent, lived below the US$6.85 poverty line, as reported in the 2022 Poverty and Shared Prosperity report. This also means that the global median income (US$7.60 per person per day) is very close to the UMIC line. Global inequality is growing, with half the world’s wealth now in the hands of just 1% of the population, according to a new report. About 3.4 bn people – just over 70% of the global adult population – have wealth of less than $10,000.

He is barely a white man. His obsession with tanning creams or tanning booths gives him an orange hue. Also, he wears alot of makeup, so that might contribute to his odd skin color. A white man cannot be called a racist for calling another white man with orange skin the orange man. Perhaps your high level of sensitivity towards criticism of your boy is showing?

Sorry but when you voted for the orange guy you revoked your right to discuss lying. It is that simple, he wouldn't know truth if it bit him on the ankles. Moral bankruptcy the sale of one's soul denies any possible encounter with truth.

We don't really know what the facts are, I was saying if the facts are as stated, then I might be tempted to act as I suggested. I seriously doubt I would just let something like that go. Very serious retribution would be called for. And not the legal kind.

This is a very odd phenomena and it's not characteristic of the air quality this time of year in HH or south of that area. It's some kind of strange front, the wind seems to be blowing in from the northeast and it will likely pass soon.

Trump is a man who does not have a single kind or benevolent bone in his entire toxic body, there's no doubt he has Biden Derangement Syndrome, and he just can't forget the man, he just can't let it go. This tiny man just can't pass on an opportunity to insult others, or a fellow president. Trump is a true deplorable. He re-defines the definition of a lowlife.

Definitely a huge load of butt kissing toward a man who set the nation back perhaps two decades. Prayut and Orawit were incredibly destructive forces, and nobody really knows what took place behind the scenes but I think at the very minimum a forensic investigation of their finances should take place, as it is likely he and his cronies walked away with billions.

Quite an incredible and if true quite a horrific story. If I was subject to that kind of treatment and then finally released, I think I would be very tempted to dedicate the rest of my life to go after that prison warden and those guards that were responsible. And I am not talking of legal remedies. For me that would feel like a very worthy way to spend the remainder of my lifetime.

It seems at this point that anyone who doesn't like or approve of Trump is now considered a terrorist. They are designating the people who are lighting Teslas on fire as terrorists, though they are practicing anarchy, they are definitely not terrorists, only in the tiny mind of Don.

Though that is sad in China Tesla sales are dropping like a brick which is a great thing, considering the fact that they've invested billions in gigafactories in China. Musk deserves the downfall.

Three shows I did not enjoy were the Madness, 1923 and Zero Days. They were silly. In the Madness the main character wears the dazed and confused look the entire series. And rarely ever dresses in disguise. In Zero days something is happening to the Deniro character, but what? Too many questions, and not enough answers. Anotjer dud is 1923. Sheridan pours on the tragedy to such an extent the desire to watch just dissapates. Like a melodrama. The tragedy is not in the story, but in the wasted opportunity.

Anora was amazing. This was an astonishing film, with performances that were written by adults for adults, which is so refreshing in today's world of American film. They actually showed nudity, they actually showed people having sex, they showed that not everybody in America is prudish, which was so wonderful and it's something that Hollywood just can't wrap its tiny little mind around. You knew this had to be a an independent production, you knew that this wasn't financed by a big studio, because the content was simply too mature, and too adult like. The interaction between Mikey Madison and Paul Weissman was precious. He played this gentle, kind-hearted thug, stuck working for a junk family, who did a great job of displaying the moral bankruptcy of the average billionaire, much less Russian oligarch. Mikey Madison was pitch perfect and absolutely deserved the Academy Award. It was a brilliant performance, the entire film had this pitch and intensity that just never let up and it was both tragic and beyond belief for many many sustained moments. Sean Baker likewise deserved his Oscar as the direction was flawless. This was an utterly enjoyable film to watch. Baker’s subtly brilliant film knows how difficult it is to pull yourself up by your bootstraps, especially when those bootstraps are constantly being cut off by the people at the top.

Never, ever mess with the dentists. They are some bad ass folks. He did not live to regret his actions. And he likely won't be missed.

The entire world needs to just say no to Tesla and anything with Musks name associated with it. He is an obnoxious creep and a dangerous man.

This is an absolute travesty, and fall squarely on the tiny shoulders of the do nothing PM. They're absolute unwillingness to do anything about this situation is an abomination and the list of things that could be done to address this problem are countless. They could start by pulling over diesel vehicles spewing out enormous clouds of black smoke, but that would require the highway patrol to actually do some work, which they utterly refuse to do. They could then get the provincial authorities to crack down on the heinous crop burning that's going on with sugar and rice, which is being perpetrated by farmers who have zero regard for their country nor their neighbors. Crack down on them hard and set an example. For the first offense with a small fine, much larger fines for a second offense and massive fines for the third offense. Word would get around and Farmers would start using more environment mentally friendly techniques even though they required more work. The feds and provincial authorities don't seem to care one iota, and even if they care they don't seem to be capable of policing the areas, and even if they were capable of placing the areas they don't seem to have the conviction to impose large enough fines to stop these farmers. In essence these farmers are practicing a form of terrorism against their own people, they are killing people, they are putting people in the hospital, they are shortening lives, and they are making life miserable for a significant portion of the nation, simply because it's easier and less expensive to burn. The degree to which the smoke is toxic is unfathomable. it is the absolute epitome of self-absorption and zero concern for others. These farmers need to be punished in a very expensive and convincing manner. If the government cared one iota, which they don't, they would start convincing farmers to switch crops and start moving away from 16th century crops like rice and sugar, moving toward more progressive crops which are potentially more profitable. If they felt the need to stick with rice and sugar they could educate the public on how those crops can be processed without burning, and subsidize the purchase of the required equipment.

While she bristled of course she made no mention of the fact that she's only PM because the duly elected PM was rejected over some bogus stock ownership claims. But the reality was he was just simply too progressive, and too reformist, and the elites and the powers that be simply didn't want him, and were scared of him and the youth he represented. You were not elected, you were appointed, against the will of the people, and nobody expects you to work for the people. You're working for yourself, your dad and the elites. We all know that, all the Thai people know that, so stop denying it. Why can't you just be courageous enough to admit the truth?

Don't be so sure of that. I saw dozens of entries about Trump dalliances with underage gals and articles about sexual assault related to him prior to 2015, in addition to countless articles about the lawsuits he was involved in with small contractors, once he announced his candidacy most of those just disappeared from Google. Was that just some sort of magic or voodoo, or the power of the deep state? Those villains are neither Democrat nor Republican, they choose a candidate, back him, and all sorts of magic and shenanigans happen.
