Right. In the Middle East they're not.

And cos they got it wrong they stopped. In the meantime Trump blocked the border deal and doubles down on his disgusting lies about Haitians snacking on cats and ducks. Sick.

I call it a lie, because it is a lie. It's not 'what I want'. If you really are interested in a more balanced take on the subject I found this quite easily. Reuters is reputable and I have had dealings with them in the past so I know how they work. (And others, although it's quite clear that most of the 'MSM' whiners and howlers have never been within pitching distance of an actual newsroom and have no idea or clue how they actually work.) https://www.reuters.com/world/us/haitian-immigrants-fueled-springfields-growth-now-us-presidential-debate-2024-09-11/ It's a tale of the ups and downs of a high immigration load. Most of whom are LEGAL! (So there won't be any 'mass deportations à la Eichmann.) Virtually none of whom are engaged in crime according even to the police. And most of whom WANT to work and pay back the chance they've been given to finally live at peace and no longer have to fear inconceivable violence and war. This applies to most migrants by the way. It's a story of chances and opportunities and challenges. There is no hint or mention anywhere by anyone involved of the city being 'devastated'. Utter piffle. It's just a lot easier to kick down on the vulnerable than perhaps face off against those who pay any lower wages in the first place right? I'm sure you agree having just posted how you worked for nothing in the hope of a pat on the head from your bosses. I can look in the mirror and say I've never worked an hour in my life for nothing. And the last one who tried got more than he bargained for because I owned him. I don't need to pick on the weak and vulnerable and spread unfounded rumors and lies, which by their very nature are more numerous and half way around the world before anything resembling the truth even has its boots on. Trump and Vance were still lying about pooch and goose gobblers the last I looked a couple of hours ago.

"faux pas". You mean lie. Conscious, deliberate lie. Even now. Constantly and continuously.

It was something they used at the start cos they got it wrong. Biden put together a border package with leading and very stringent, conservative Reps. (He was responsible for the border as Pressy yuh know?). It was all agreed and ready to go down. Trump vetoed it for the reason I gave. Thinks ... Does that make him border czar?

Harris was not the 'border czar'. Trump prevented Biden's bi-partisan bill from passing that would have even satisfied the house Republicans hardest proponent. Because he wants the excuse to squeal about Haiitians eating pets and geese. Thought it'd be a killer move 555

She's already proven she's a black dan in mental jiu-jitsu ... He still can't believe what happened to him ... still running around saying he won.

That is precisely what Trumpsters and magaloons find so difficult ...

What a loser. I'd have taken her out to dinner ...

Yes. The poor kid is called Colt. And I don't think the parents meant horses. And his 'father' bought him the rifle a year after he'd been interviewed about threatening a school shooting. I hope they get some seriously qualified psychiatrics involved here. There's more to it than meets the eye. That kid looks like he was groomed for this.

Truly even Monty Python would never have dared push things as far as they did.

Sorry, couldn't reist this ... it's a perfect example. (Truth said I really can't be bothered with them most of the time.)

Because like the magaloons and brexiters he simply can't face the fact that he's been duped.

Has anyone noticed the kid's name?

HomePro etc have the advantage at least of being decent working environments with pretty well regulated shifts, even if the pay is the minimum.

Seen it. This clip is iconic.

We can but hope. I haven't found an answer to the finger print issue yet ... maybe they haven't thought this through like always.

The sad and worrying thing is many will agree with him. What's especially distasteful is the assertion that his life was worth saving by this god but the poor former fire fighter who died wasn't. Sick sick sick.

Brilliant!! And a proud haul too for the entire team ... When you think how neglected facilities are for paraplegics in Thailand, it takes some guts and gumption to get this far.

Possibly a need to willy wave for some.

How much?

I booked a cheap throwaway with AirAsia in Jan or so 2023. In knew I'd probably be cancelling and wouldn't get the ticket price back which was minimal. But I knew I could reclaim the taxes etc. And did. After a couple of months the chatbot told me it was in process. I'd given up on it (wasn't gonna lose sleep over such an essentially minor sum) when the money came through after about 4 months (May I think) and without further prompting. I was happy. Of course I hadn't invested a sum that would affect my finances. A wise tactic when dealing in Asia. Make sure you've complied with T+Cs. Claim it and wait patiently. I expect you'll get it. They have form on long-term refund processes judging by other threads.

At last! Someone's said it. A teacher has no business holding hands or hugging students in their condos or anywhere else ... And the shame and confusion that kind of perverse behavior induces means it takes a while for the victims to come out about it. The opportunity would have been provided, of that you can be sure.

Oh dear. What a ridiculous thing to expect of someone.

Also much easier to plant ...
