California in Uproar as Newsom Condemns Trump’s Troop Deployment as ‘Deranged Fantasy’
You obviously never lived at the beach in California back then, if you think all the males hanging around surfing every day were "trust fund babies." Maybe a few of them were, but that's true just about everywhere you look. As for the "hard working family man"? Those people make their choice to get married and havre a family. If that meant they had to work hared every day, whose fault was that? In any event, even those people could afford to live just about anywhere in California back then. The only problem I ever heard of was that some may have had a hard time finding a place to rent, because some apartment complexes and landlords didn't want to rent to people with kids. -

Crime Chinese Man with Elite Visa Caught Operating Illegal Tour Business in Bangkok
Picture courtesy of Matichon. A Chinese national holding a Thailand Elite visa has been arrested for illegally operating a full-scale tour service in Bangkok, including car transfers and guided visits to major tourist sites such as the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew. On 11 June, police investigators observed suspicious activity involving three vehicles transporting tourists to prominent landmarks including the Grand Palace and Tha Chang Pier. Officers from a special operations unit tracked the movements and confirmed that the suspect was conducting unauthorised tour operations in violation of Thai tourism laws. The suspect, identified only as “Mr B”, a 25-year-old Chinese national, was apprehended at Tha Chang Pier on Maharaj Road. Authorities charged him with operating a tour business without a licence as required under the Tourism Business and Guide Act. He also faces charges for working without a valid work permit and engaging in work beyond the scope permitted under his visa status. Mr B, who entered the country on a Thailand Elite visa, a long-stay visa programme aimed at affluent foreign nationals, had allegedly been running a private tour operation offering high-end experiences for visiting Chinese tourists. This included vehicle transfers and personally guided tours of historic sites in the heart of Bangkok. He was taken into custody and handed over to investigators at Chana Songkhram Police Station for legal proceedings. Authorities have reiterated their commitment to cracking down on illegal tourism operators, especially those circumventing laws under the guise of legitimate residency or visa programmes.

A new Dem superstar:Dem Congresswoman LaMonica McIver…
Trump’s DOJ Indicted a Democratic Congresswoman. The Case Could Fall Apart. It's easy to see how the charges against the Democratic congresswoman fall flat if they ever get to a jury. easy to see how the charges against the Democratic congresswoman fall flat if they ever get to a jury. The indictment of Rep. LaMonica McIver on Tuesday marks the latest dramatic escalation in the Trump administration’s effort to quell public and political opposition to the president’s crackdown on illegal immigration. It’s also likely to be a dud. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2025/06/10/indictment-lamonica-mciver-flop-column-00398777 -
