  1. nope, definitely not. wait, I think I remember where I saw it here (video will start some seconds before Tucker Carlson says he is rooting for Russia)
  2. Tucker Carlson said it himself on air himself that he is rooting for Russia
  3. yes, The Diplomat is good entertainment, binge-worthy. I'm disappointed they didn't conclude the storyline within 8 episodes, and I'm left with a cliffhanger. Massive success, so I guess there will be a season 2 - mid to end 2024 at the earliest. While it's a very good show, I don't feel it has the stuff to become a classic such as The West Wing - the resemblance is that there are White House staffers at work but that's where similarities end. The scenario is clearly inspired by real world events, the war in Ukraine is mentioned, and the Russian mercenaries are mentioned in the series to have pushed France out in Mali - clearly, it's Wagner. As with the Night Agent (good entertainment too), plot twists were a tad predictable.
  4. I think travel insurance is an area in need of government regulation. Travellers can't be required to read 20 pages of small print full of insurance jargon, especially 5 or 6 times depending on whether they compare different insurance policies. Most people won't understand what's written anyway. Sometimes the small print is ludicrous, such as requiring motorcycle driving licenses for motorcycle passengers. I think I also remember reading somewhere that coverage had been denied for drunk car passengers.
  5. I'm not sure what your "information" is supposed to prove nor what your point is. Simonyan is a war monger, a Kremlin propaganda mouthpiece and a liar. She's a piece in Putin's war machine and rightfully sanctioned for that reason. Russian state TV spews lies. Asking for equal treatment of Ruzzian media and Western media is without merit, because there is no equivalence. Ruzzian state media does not broadcast journalistic content about the war in Ukraine.
  6. this bit alone greatly increases the chances of truthfulness ! lol and this will be difficult, as anyone is free to quote any source of information (but not on this forum)
  7. free financial advice: I'm not optimistic for the value of real estate in Ruzzia (don't complain about my use of your President's favorite non-Ruzzian character) the reason I'm not optimistic about the value of real estate is demographics and economics.
  8. Wowotshka, do you mean Ruzzian media's reporting is more accurate ? don't hesitate to give examples of their fine journalistic work.
  9. the only surprise is that gun violence stops at county borders
  10. let's start with this: any senator voting for the bill and found to be in breach of one of the commandments loses his seat.
  11. since my not so old TCL TV stopped working, I wonder if Hisense TV are durable ? any experiences ? I'm considering buying one of their not-so-smart 4k models, for use with a media player box.
  12. don't worry, mom & pop shops in side streets will sell you cold beer no problem
  13. nothing new nor particularly interesting in this broadcast, they just repeated known facts. the host's impartiality though is more than questionable, he painted the war as a conflict between 2 countries rather than an aggression by Russia, creating a false equivalence of Russia with Ukraine as to who is responsible for this war, and his "bottom line" goal is bringing both countries to the negotiating table rather than ending Russia's aggression.
  14. every time I read "heavy seas" and it's about the gulf of Thailand I chuckle
  15. and they should be fined again for that statement.
  16. JT, just the fact that you posted here to ask if this is legit or not is rather concerning
  17. it needs to come out before it's all over, so that we won't allow for it to be over too soon, so that Putin and the other criminals against humanity won't be allowed to keep any of what they hope to have gained.
  18. and I'm here imagining OP sitting in his room with his laptop and how many ants must be there for them to be a nuisance.
  19. errr.... I'm very very very sceptical about the accuracy of this headline
  20. yes, that thing will work, thank you for the suggestion
  21. I would be interested in a link please
  22. there's no wifi in the location I want to run the AC in.
