Report Bangkok Senator Accused of Attempted Rape by Ex-News Anchor
As mentioned, how the hell did he get her into the condo? Why would she go with him willingly if she knew his intentions while sat in the car? And then why did he, after apparently making a huge effort to force her into the condo, suddenly relent at the last second when he probably had a stonker on? To me that seems like the most unlikely time a would-be rapist might suddenly give up and say "okay, I'm sorry, forget it". I think she's full of crap, maybe she felt she didn't get paid enough... -

USA Texas Floods Leave Trail of Devastation as Death Toll Climbs to 80
REUTERS Updated on: July 7, 2025 -- During a July 4 press conference, Nim Kidd, the chief of the Texas Division of Emergency Management, said the forecast his office received on Wednesday in advance of the storm predicted several inches of rain, but that "the amount of rain that fell at this specific location was never in any of those forecast." Kerrville city manager Dalton Rice reiterated that sentiment in the same press conference, saying the storms that hit the areas "dumped more rain than what was forecasted." The afternoon before the disaster struck, the National Weather Service office in Austin/San Antonio issued a flood watch on July 3 at 1:18 p.m. CT that included Kerrville. The alert stated: "Rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches with isolated amounts of 5 to 7 inches are possible." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-floods-emergency-alerts-weather-forecast-staffing-budget/ -

China’s Rare Earth Ultimatum to Myanmar Rebels Threatens Global Supply
KIA, the Irrawaddy China has warned ethnic rebels in Myanmar to halt their offensive on the key northern town of Bhamo—or face a rare earth export ban that could rattle global markets. The Kachin Independence Army (KIA), one of the strongest armed groups resisting Myanmar’s military junta, has been fighting to seize Bhamo since December. The town lies near the Chinese border and close to lucrative rare-earth mining zones that supply nearly half the world’s heavy rare earths—critical for electric vehicles and wind turbines. China, which dominates global rare earth processing, reportedly told the KIA it would stop buying minerals from KIA-controlled territory unless the group pulls back from Bhamo. The warning, revealed by Reuters and based on insider accounts, marks a sharp escalation in Beijing’s efforts to use economic leverage to shape outcomes in Myanmar’s war. “The message was clear: stop the offensive or face a blockade,” a KIA official said. Beijing also hinted at future trade incentives if the rebels comply. So far, the KIA has not backed down. It raised mining taxes and throttled output after taking control of the rare earth belt last year—moves that have already disrupted Chinese imports and sent global prices for elements like terbium soaring. The KIA believes China won’t follow through, given its reliance on the minerals. But a prolonged halt could squeeze global supply. Exports from Myanmar to China are already down by half compared to 2024. “Prices could shoot up further,” warned Neha Mukherjee of Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, adding that non-Chinese supply is already tight. The battle for Bhamo is not just about minerals. Its capture would sever key junta supply lines and isolate military bases across northern Myanmar. The junta has responded with heavy airstrikes, flattening swathes of the town and displacing thousands. China, a major backer of the junta, appears less interested in ending the war than in managing it. Analysts say Beijing wants stability near its border and continued access to natural resources—not regime change. Still, the rebels remain defiant. “If we take Bhamo, China will have no choice but to deal with us,” a KIA commander said. With global rare earth markets in the balance, the outcome of this battle may soon be felt far beyond Myanmar’s borders. -2025-07-09 -

These lowlifes are likely responsible for countless crimes and breaches of social norms. They simply have too much power and it is likely that the law rarely pursues them. Hope this creep gets locked up.
