Or neo Nazis who are in Oz.

Personally I do not view the Israeli killings in Gaza as genocide, but IMO totally beyond reason. Current estimated death count in Gaza is nearly 45,000. At the beginning of this conflict Israelis estimated Hamas fighters at somewhere between 15k - 30k. Right now daily deaths from Israel bombing is approx 50 deaths a day (the rubble bounces), plus nearly all hospitals in Gaza can no longer function. The civilians will not be able to bring about the release of hostages. Media suggests Netanyahu is wating for trump to come to power before a cessation of bombing, in other words continuing killing for political reasons. Extremely cynical and cruel, one hopes a better people than PLA and Netanyahu will come to power in the not too distant future to configure a political solution to the endless killing

Interesting. Obviously don't know what T&Cs are but a post on X platform.... The Guardian is not funded by Gates himself. It receives a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which is independently administered. The grant is for reporting on global health and development topics. Any funded articles are marked as such.

Why would trump stop the Uni from releasing his record whilst at Wharton? It’s rare for a professor to disparage the intelligence of a student, but according to attorney Frank DiPrima, who was close friends with professor William T. Kelley for 47 years, the prof made an exception for Donald Trump, at least in private. “He must have told me that 100 times over the course of 30 years,” says DiPrima, who has been practicing law since 1963 and has served as in-house counsel for entities including the Federal Trade Commission and Playboy Enterprises. “I remember the inflection of his voice when he said it: ‘Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had!’” https://www.phillymag.com/news/2019/09/14/donald-trump-at-wharton-university-of-pennsylvania/

Long overdue: Caps on political donations are being considered by ministers as part of sweeping reforms to the UK electoral system. Same should be in-place in all Western democracies. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/dec/02/government-may-cap-uk-political-donations-to-limit-foreign-influence

I was referring to pardoning 'political allies. Obama pardoned 1927 who has been convicted of federal crimes. If you wish to wade through their cases and identify who you believe were not worth, go for it and set up another topic.

Get it in perspective! The vast numbers of the pardoned 'elite' were by trump. trump pardoned 237 convicted criminals mainly for political loyalty...Now the supreme court has given trump carte blanche whilst he is in power. Of the pardons and commutations that Trump did grant, the vast majority were to persons to whom Trump had a personal or political connection, or persons for whom executive clemency served a political goal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_granted_executive_clemency_by_Donald_Trump

Justice dept had plenty of time to find evidence. It's MAGA who're but, but .but Biden., prior to that it was Hilary. Time to be quiet it it not...unfortunately will not stop with trump's incessant "poor little me" and echoed by MAGA world.

Seems Biden took the decision to pardon his son, no matter the consequences. IMO an incorrect decision as one assumes trump would feel unburdened by any consequences for his decision....there again trump previously always appeared to act in that manner. In summary yet again demonstrates an urgent need to overhaul the Constitution and Presidential powers.

Never been proven to be illegal

Sure, plus 74 million Dem votes in the US

Who knows what in secret stuff passed between trump and Putin. You don't, nor do I. But one thing is certain Ukrainian deaths lay at the feet of Putin, not Biden..

Just highlighting how unfit he is for the Office of the President of the USA

Russia is the aggressor in the Ukraine and has been since 2014. Matter of opinion if you concur with appeasement like trump did with a terrorist group in Afghanistan. There again the military grossly misled the politicians; review Afghanistan Papers

When trump was in power he vastly increased the use of armed drones and revoked the rules for reporting drone strikes. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-47480207 BTW Trump Jnr has recently been appointed as an advisor to a drone manufacturer - Lol... https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/27/donald-trump-jr-drone-company

Yep, tough life. At that time the area was mostly jungle and the "house" was made from bamboo. Since then been rebuilt twice and now modernised. Some of the then locals (Muslim) eventually became relatively wealthy by building and renting out town houses on Soi Nern Plub Wan.

I suggest it is extremist ideology to claim "trump is "almost god", in any case believed by the minority. BTW I don't hate trump just believe he's a very poor choice to represent the most powerful country in the world, along with nominating people with practically zero experience to run huge institutions. with the only qualification being a MAGA sycophant puts the world in dander of very poor decisions. I agree Biden made a poor political decision with his son, but understandable with MAGA promising to completely politicise the Justice system; you will find many Democrats also disagree with the decision.

Yes, but on the Dark Side and only a small parcel of land

No comparison whatsoever, unless you're doing the MAGA stuff....hut, but it's all a conspiracy when trump people are convicted

My wife was very beautiful when she was young, maybe you remember her?

Opposition goes a lot further than "I don't like trump". We have already seen how trump reacts to dissent with emphatic vilification and threats with very few Republicans objecting. Authoritarian regimes target leaders to create fear to suppress opposition, we will have to wait and see how matters unfold with trump; hopefully I and others are proven wrong.

Just responding to the usual one way street from MAGA world.

My wife's father was a fisherman in Pattaya and remembers going with him. Then she and her brother provided horse rides along the beach for visitors - memories....

All politicians lie, but none like the numbers with trump. Have you ever criticised trump for his volume of lies, misinformation and so so?

trump also provides pardons for convicted criminals who support him. It's interesting the number of people in trump's orbit who are convicted for criminal offices compared to Biden. However, if you were the father and had the power would you not pardon for non violent offences? Below Biden gives his reasoning, sounds just like trump.... Biden said in the statement that he decided to issue the pardon because his son was “selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted,” saying that “Hunter was treated differently” from people who commit similar crimes.
