I am sure you already knew what was right and wrong before the whip came out. What the whip did was teach you that there are consequences for displeasing those who have power over you, whether it is a teacher, boss, man in a police uniform, or the leader of the country. As you said, if not for the whip, you would be in jail by now. You have learned to fear the shadow of the whip.</description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Jun 2026 09:45:17 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>trump ready to fire hegseth</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396917-trump-ready-to-fire-hegseth/?do=findComment&comment=20557420]]></link><description>Comedy gold.

For that matter, insurance companies could take several days to approve or pay out medical coverage amounts - and might refuse to pay for anything. There are no sure things.     They could protect against that by just requiring a multiplier if funds are in liquid securities rather than cash - say, $500k (or even $1M) in brokerage assets as a substitute for the $100k in cash. Any widely traded security can be turned into cash virtually overnight in the US, and I'm sure a body called the "Board of Investment" understands that.

The US is all countries in one place and has to act like the world police at times, like it did in World War 2 and stopped Germany and Japan from controlling the world.   North Korea is learning a hard lesson from this, as is other countries.   The US didn't do this with previous presidents and look what happened. Thousands of innocent lives lost.   Myanmar is also the same way, until someone steps in and shows them their people are human beings and not disposable. Iran thought it's citizens were. Maybe it'll change the regime's thinking, maybe not, but they'll know what's coming if they try their terror again. Wars suck, but again, no one knows a better way to make peace. Some people don't negotiate until they lose their own.</description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Jun 2026 09:42:15 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>White House UFC Attack Plot Foiled, Five Arrested</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396876-white-house-ufc-attack-plot-foiled-five-arrested/?do=findComment&comment=20557413]]></link><description>Remember he said this "I am your retribution".

That the law is the same for every one !! But in every country there are people that apparently can do everything they want to do. The law always looks the other way. For some of these people the law eventually catches up with them after many years of making millions and more millions. But some of those criminal people die peacefully without ever been bothered by the law, after living a life of luxury with stolen money.</description><pubDate>Wed, 17 Jun 2026 09:36:37 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>trump ready to fire hegseth</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396917-trump-ready-to-fire-hegseth/?do=findComment&comment=20557400]]></link><description>I can see it now.
