You are gaming numbers.Wed, 27 May 2026 17:32:22 +0000He had his check up at "Mt Sinai Hospital"...🤭Wed, 27 May 2026 17:25:56 +0000According to the USDA Economic Research Service, food-at-home prices (purchased at supermarkets) rose by 2.9% year-over-year, and increased 0.7% in a single month. Consumers are currently paying roughly 20% more for groceries compared to four years ago.Wed, 27 May 2026 17:22:32 +0000It is far from the easiest and most convenient country to live in. The bureaucracy and restrictions are a major downside. I can get a one year multientry visa to Cambodia for $300 with no 90 day reporting, no TM-30 filing, no paperwork proving where I live and details about my landlord, and very little hassle. Work permits are also easy to get as well as the lack of a completely overreaching definition of "work". Getting a bank account is also simple without the absurd hoops that a foreigner has to jump through in Thailand. Yes, there are some very good things about Thailand, but there are also some serious downsides.Wed, 27 May 2026 17:17:49 +0000Looking at the data, the only thing that has really spiked is gas. https://www.bls.gov/charts/consumer-price-index/consumer-price-index-average-price-data.htmWed, 27 May 2026 17:17:29 +0000Im lost, where does the jews fit in this discussion?Wed, 27 May 2026 17:12:46 +0000\ You don't say. Wonder why you on the ignore list of many, as most jew lovers are?Wed, 27 May 2026 17:05:33 +0000I just leave this here, here is a VIDEO in the article. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/08/politics/police-body-cam-video-trump-shootingWed, 27 May 2026 17:02:50 +0000Your underlying ignorant hatred has been displayed. How do you expect to be taken seriously when you declare your bigotry? Blaming jews because of your personal failings in won't change what you are.Wed, 27 May 2026 16:58:09 +0000This is just absolute nonsense. The attempted assassinations were real. The US shooters were real. The Iranian assassins who were stopped were real. The legal proceedings are not hidden, and it is all transparent. There is no staged conspiracy plot. On any given day, the US Secret Service and other security agencies and law enforcement deal with credible threats to the POTUS. This has been going on for decades. Trump was not the first and he won't be the last. Your claim that we " must remember, it's been in the news since the first day, that a people pointed to the shooter, a police man climbed up the ladder, saw the shooter, but ignored him." is not true.. The fact that you knowingly repeat a false statement indicates that you are either dishonest because the claim has been debunked or you are feeble minded for embracing a false claim without verifying. The Congressional investigation as well as multiple police investigations do not support your claim. The local police officer did not ignore the shooter and attempted to raise the alarm. The gunman started shooting shortly after this encounter. The local police shot at the gunman. The BBC showed the video of the encounter. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgdgl5p40yo In order for your claim to be true, the video would need to be staged and the recordings of the police officers staged, and the subsequent recorded communications of the Secret Service, staged. Hundreds of local, state and federal agents along with news media and the general public would have had to be engaged in some form of cosplay. Did you even read the report on the incident? https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/USSS-Chairman-Report-Final-July-20254.pdfWed, 27 May 2026 16:55:11 +0000The Thai government is to this day very compromised (as evidenced by current PM Anutin, the unforgettable Covid Jabber Psycho Minister of Health). Fink (and countless others) were forced to swear allegiance to Trump after his 2024 win because politics are a game of power and they had no choice. I saw it as capitulation rather than a co-option of Trump.Wed, 27 May 2026 16:53:38 +0000OK, Dumb question (and I have been around ThaiVisa.com for the best part of 20 years) ......where is the pinned topic, I don't recall much debate around this LTV but, yes, I have read some topics on the subject. I know the search function on here has always been poor but, I mean, a search of "LTR Wealthy Pensioners" just brings up our 3 posts..Wed, 27 May 2026 16:53:08 +0000The Trump admin sees far left activists as domestic terrorists, and in my view this is a correct assessment (c.f. post George Floyd "Summer of Love" in 2020).Wed, 27 May 2026 16:48:08 +0000I bet you believe the moon is made of cheese at this point.Wed, 27 May 2026 16:46:15 +0000Just read it… Well, Leo has radicalised his anti-Trumpism since last time I read him. It's funny how promising Substack writers so often evolve from analysers to preachers (perhaps a side effect of having thousands of paid subscribers…). He reads Trump's actions literally, takes them at face value. You know what my take is on that. I will refrain from further comment now, but will bookmark this article and we shall see how well it has aged in a year from now…Wed, 27 May 2026 16:44:00 +0000You don't say. You're MAGA aren't you? That alternative reality is what the whole world knows about MAGAWed, 27 May 2026 16:41:08 +0000Conspiracy theories flowing thick and fast. Wasnt so long ago you guys wanted conspiracy theorists(who it turned out were merely stating known fact) to be red screened and removed from the discussion. Wasn't a sincere stance clearly🤣Wed, 27 May 2026 16:38:49 +0000You exist in an alternate reality.Wed, 27 May 2026 16:37:43 +0000Are you talking about the set up assassinations, where someone got instructions, and got paid for it, then lost his life, so he couldn't reveal anything? You must remember, it's been in the news since the first day, that a people pointed to the shooter, a police man climbed up the ladder, saw the shooter, but ignored him.Wed, 27 May 2026 16:30:55 +0000Well, your side continue to attempt to wipe out Israelis . Hasnt been going too well for your side recentlyWed, 27 May 2026 16:29:17 +0000It's a good compromise: quiet, no tourists in the vicinity, mainly Thais in the moo bahn, yet still close to all amenities.Wed, 27 May 2026 16:27:43 +0000Naah,we're just not MAGA or Jew loversWed, 27 May 2026 16:22:42 +0000good to hear . quiet can take some getting used to hahahha . i love quiet . but have to admit it is less "lonely" when close and convenient to shopping, etc which cities do provide .Wed, 27 May 2026 16:22:35 +0000You mean he's gonna skip the 10 years between 80 and 90?Wed, 27 May 2026 16:21:31 +0000That is the biggest problem for the USWed, 27 May 2026 16:20:02 +0000
